I was a bit surprised too. Smith-Wade at nickel is probably not the answer, but he would be good depth. At the end of the season, they played Bartholomew and Evans, and both were decent. That is their depth. Looks like they brought in Mike Reid from SDSU and Corey Thornton from Louisville--giving him a big bonus to sign. Do they have a S they plan to play nickel? About the draft: I liked the value for Ransom. I think he is going to be a starter day 1. I liked the addition of a big, tall, in-line TE with good hands and decent speed. Red Zone. I like the fact that they addressed WR, but I am not sure I would have taken Tet and I know I would not have taken Horn. With the current roster, I would have taken a WR early and then added an UDFA later. I would not have drafted a RB in any round. We have 2 good ones and can find a third holding a cardboard sign on the street corner. We are 3 deep at RB and have zero depth at CB behind our injury-prone $100m man. With our current roster, I am not sure that I would have double dipped at Edge, unless they knew Clowney and maybe Johnson were gone. Jones is meh and Wonnum is an 8-sack guy when healthy. Scourton (and I was like "WTF?" has the ability to be a 10-sack guy. Princely will be a designated pass rusher, I suppose. Cam Jackson is a guy I just knew they would draft late; a good backup for Brown.

he had a good 2023 and I hope he gets over the injury bug.

Both of our safeties can play deep in cover 1, 2, 3, 4. They can read run quickly and they take smart angles. They can cover most RBs and TEs in man. Before, we had some Willie Mays playing Center field 20 yards off the ball.

I was pumped to get him. I also think we are going to be pleasantly surprised by the TE Evans.

I am sure this is somewhere else on this board, but I did not see it during the 30-second, extensive search I just completed.

Tepper does nothing for himself.

It suggests they value his skill set more than the other UDFAs, in my view, and I am not impressed with his skill set when compared to who he'd have to beat out.

SDSU corner--lean and tall. Maybe.

this is sucking, for the most part.

he is a S---come on Aaron.

I am guessing the Vandy OL Steven Losoya will be tried at C.

That is scary---they must see something I do not.

Hope not.

I would take Restrepo.

Majors from Tex would be nice--I am very curious about WIllie Lampkin from UNC. Isiah Bond did not get drafted--wow. Seth McLaughlin (Ohio St) would be nice.

I have been retired for 2 years--going back to work this summer. Trying to squeeze all of out of the tube.

This is a wish list--not signings---to be clear.

Injuries are part of it. When I was a freshman, one of the first thing I noticed int he locker room and training room was EVERYONE seemed to have a surgical scar or two. I didn't. By the following year, I had a scar from shoulder surgery. It is not that you are injury prone, it is more about how recovery prone you are.

I have OD'd on it a few times....Got humble pie put in my IV before my wife could have them put the DNR band on my arm.

In a few years, you will love this pick---smart as hell and did everything they asked him to do. His CBs at Ohio State were weaknesses, and he helped keep the defensive backs on the same page.

It reminds me of (testing your memory) Todd Marinovich, the USC QB who was so programmed and disciplined by his father that he never ate a hamburger and he was in training since he was 5. Remember that?
