I feel you to a degree. I see at least 2 teams needing to go oline before us. Teams above us have horrible olinevplay and Qbs in place already. If they trade too far back, the 2 elite tackles could be gone.

With new wording of Steelers kind of getting burnt out on the Rodgers drama, I could very well see them pivot if 1 of Milroe or Sanders is at 8. Rumors have that a few teams think Milroe could be Hurts all over. If Sanders and Ward(locked at 1) go early, we will see someone try to come up to the sweespot before the possible run happens.

Every year it's a top prospect or 2 that has a random slide on draft night bc of some medical or character concern.... random

I've thought bout them as doing that fr. Especially when Myles Garrett spoke on having a Qb.

Usually a corner or oline run too...

Random, if the Giants do take Carter... and try to trade Kayvon... I would think about it. If Sanders gets to 8 and they want to trade up from 3(I know that's far) by adding Kayvon and pick swaps in next couple rds and a future 1st or 2nd maybe... Id be game. They pick at the top of each rd, so we'd get talent spill over, a pass rusher with yout/ skill and still have that 34 pick to get a wr etc.

Man it's gonna be real murky starting from pick to til our pick and depending on the vibe, we may be in a scenario of getting calls to trade up but I very well could see a trade back. If Sanders and Walker both get picked before 8... we are in a tough position if nobody wants to trade back.

I like Walker as a prospect but the irony of us taking an undersized player again is somewhat amusing...

This offensive line staff really did work. Crazy to think, being that in Tampa they didn't do too well in run blocking.

I agree but I'm guessing they are keeping Julian Blackmon as a fallback option. Which isn't bad but depends on how the picks go. We definitely need a wr added too. Kind if wonder will they make a play for Kittle or Andrew's, with both being rumored on the market too.

Same feeling on him. His tape shows someone playing big, like Walker. Actually a lil taller too.

Whats your opinion on the Boston College dude?

I like the logic and I would have my eyes on the Boston college edge or the ole miss one.

Exactly!! This has shades of the Mac Jones draft all over!! A few teams desperate and all it takes is a couple going early and a couple teams desperate for the next! Your logic makes sense, draft the board and go next draft but you know how some Gms n Coaches get.

I like this guy as much as I do Williams and not far off from walker

Another thing, if somebody trades ahead of us to get Sanders, there is a possibility of a panic run. Dart or Milroe chatter could make someone show their hand since it'd put a spotlight on the Saints taking the next qb available.

I'm not against Tmac but I feel Golden makes as much since in the offense we have. His game resembles Coker and Leggette to a degree. Golden gives us the quick twitch wr with yac that could find open spots for Bryce faster. Even then, I would rather trade back a few and draft either.

The best way to look at it!! The best value for our team... the pick has to contribute!!

I'm not mad either way they go honestly bc we not a complete team. We could easily draft Vernon ghoslton all over and that value wouldn't mean a thing. We aren't in the position of wasting picks. Our pick needs to be a starter and with limited guess work of how he'd fit in. Evero, doesn't deserve the choice of wasting another player career. Chinn and Luvu could've did more damage. Hopefully we hit the pick if it's Walker or Williams but we need production for our team... offense or defense.

I feel you! Value is only determined by certain measures and for our team, a tight end holds value. Now if they really feel one of the other tight ends can do something, ok but 6 of the last remaining teams in the playoffs, would've struggled heavily without solid tight end play. I'd rather have Jeremy Shockey then Brian burns... in perspective. I'd be happy with Warren bc you know you getting a starter. His game translates with minimal flaws. Remove Kelce from Kc and you probably don't have a few of those rings either.

100 receptions is nothing to sneeze at but I think the biggest thing is he makes the offense more unpredictable. He is a mismatch going out and you can't tip your hat on run or pass plays in 2 tight end or 1 tight end sets. That being said, I don't think they will draft him unless the board shakes a certain way. It does really feel they are locked in on the Georgia boys.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say they run it with Rattler. They committed to Carr, so we know they were already willing to tank for Manning. Could they go up for Sanders, of course. I still think they ride it out this year bc they are trying to get out if contracts and dead cap.

Yeah we have invested a bunch ot time with tight ends and it's clearly obvious they like Warren. I think they really wanted to dive into the others to see the gap personally and make a decision off that. If they feel Taylor or 1 of the other tight ends have good upside as a 2 way tight end, they may go that route. Warren is the only 1 right now that shows he could be a starter bc he isn't a liability in run or pass. They have options. The same goes for edge. They are trying to see the gap between Walker etc and the next wave of rushers. The value may be too good to not go offense early and then go edge later if the drop aint bad. This is a true battle amongst defense n offense in the draft room and they are doing a mini process of elimination.

I said this a week ago and someone said it's idiotic basically bc they want Rodgers. Newsflash, Rodgers is a 1 year bandaid at most and if he gets hurt, Pittsburgh has nothing else but just traded for Metcalf. I still think Shedaur may go to the Giants tho. Feels its a battle in the front office on him. We will see but I'd gladly take that trade package lol
