Cpt slay a ho

Eh I just wanted a impactful starter not sure how I feel about another offensive pick, let alone a o lineman that’s supposed to solve issues we don’t even have to deal with this season. the two big names we passed on were lemon and Dillion, so it will be interesting to see how those two pan out compared to freeling. are we really looking at the Lt play as a factor to why the offense was bottom 3rd in the league ?

Lemon was a hard one to think we’d passed on but I’m not opposed to it if there was a better player available. I just question how another o linemen was seen as the most impactful player we could get at 19. I hate to say it but even an elite LT isn’t the missing piece for the offense’s struggles. Bryce limitations shouldn’t limit us from drafting anyone imo, that’s just not acceptable. I’m not mad at the wr room currently, it just requires a lot positive growth from xl, Coker, tmac and horn. we’re in unison about the offense’s ceiling given the signal caller, with that being said and known, maybe invest some high draft capital into the side of the ball that’s been steadily improving with the least amount of investments.

I have questions about the logic behind the pick but no problem with the player. There’s been a lot invested in the oline with very little to show, what exactly is the identity we are trying to build ?

Yeah but again is any of this urgent this season ? Could this not have been addressed in FA’s or the Draft next year ? at what point are we expected to see the fruits of all the investments in the o line ? these are questions I’ll revisit if the offense is still bottom half next year. Just feels like a lot of meat left on the bone with that pick

Yeah but paying the going wage for Bryce to game manage and having a dominant o line will only last until it’s time to pay Young, which is next season.

Most of those problems can be handled the following offseason though, whether through the draft or free agency. Time will tell but it feels like bigger upgrades may have been available at 19

Eh I’ll trust the front office but this is a lot invested in the o line that’s already heavily invested in.

Lemon, j rod or thienenemen would be my guess

At what point do you consider trading up for Bain ?

Kinda leaning towards dt in the first, I like everything I hear about McDonald, would make a lot of jobs easier on defense.

Kayden should be in play, lb too, but this team and franchise has been long overdue for a true fs. Being able to grab two of the 3 in the first two rounds would be huge for the defense

I’m not mad about kc but he doesn’t do anything specifically to put himself ahead of the others in his class like cooper jr and lemon, let alone a shot at the 1 rated dt or other positions.

Kayden McDonald would be hard to pass up too I’m ngl either way this is going to be fun comes draft day

You take lemon in that case with zero shame, major fit, and a dawg like Morgan has wanted. Him and T-Mac sheesh

This list of very close to what I have, well done. McNeil is growing on me, I was just unsure his fit at fs, seems more as ss, curious how’d he hold up against te in coverage, I see the talent. McDonald is a sleeper for me, could be our version of vita I’m a fan of cooper, I think this deep draft at wr too, I know it’s blasphemous but j rod reminds me a little of Luke, and paired with Lloyd we maybe be looking at Luke/td reincarnated. O linemen of any kind, although not the “sexy” pick I understand is essential. I’m all for adding guys from the 2nd round on for the o line but I’m not sold online is the pick either because of similar reasons you’ve stated. Proctor would be hard to pass due to the measurements. strukes seems to be moving up, I’m worried haulcy may have scheme fit issues, read he played mostly cover 1 coverage and may struggle with our cover 3 scheme but the talent is there to be a very good coverage s

I would not be mad, I could see maybe targeting a guy like branch or bell in the second to also fill that role. I still wouldn’t sleep on the taller guys either, I think some maybe better overall then the shifter guys

We gave up the middle of the field like no one’s business last year. Lloyd will help limit that but thieneman could help eliminate at lot of down field and big chunk over the middle plays we’ve given up. This is the first draft in a loonnnnnggggggg time I’ve felt this excited about who we’re getting in the first.

I see the vision, but if that’s the case, I don’t think you go wr in round 1 unless lemon falls maybe cooper.

Doubt lemon is there but Boston is very very intriguing. I would not be mad if he’s the pick at 19, reminds me of a blend of Kennan Allen and Colston. His hands are very Larry fitz esc

Fs is where I think we could make a big jump in talent depending on how the bored falls. not thrilled with the cb or lb depth, especially given Jaycee’s health issues. We need another guy to compliment db in the middle.

Nice combo, wouldn’t be mad but I’m hoping we go a combo of db/dt or dt/lb

I was thinking more so if one of the top 3 wr fell to us I can see it being the pick. Anything offense related wouldn’t surprise me. If Bryce flops at least the next qb comes into a loaded offense and our window reopens if we land a qb.

I’m kinda not opposed to it, only because the defense, even given evero’s problem in situational play calling, has been able to perform over expectations. but on the flip side, the offense has had the most investments but has fail to scrape top 15. We’re closer to a top 10 defensive team than a top 10 offense. Especially in our division, I just feel a top defense will get us closer to consistent contention. We can’t pay Bryce and pay all the offensive pieces needed for him to perform at his assume cap hit once he’s eating up a 3rd of the cap.

We trade up for Caleb Downs

Not opposed if the offense is gonna open up but based off what I’ve seen, I’m all for bolstering the defense. s or dt in the first hopefully
