2nd Round Pick Kony Ealy DE


Kurb

Recommended Posts

Hardy isn't walking. CJ goes then his replacement will be found, not Ealy. Argument can be made that DE is a need still as having 4 stud pass rushers make us a much better team. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see us take another DE or DT

lmao let's take all the DEs!!!1

this pick s premature point blank.

 

if you don't plan on hardy being here next year draft a de next year

 

same with if the plan is cutting cj next year

 

if this was the plan all along could have let hardy walk and got some decent help in FA

 

well, to be fair, that wouldnt be a good solution either...

What have you seen that makes you think that Bell even has a chance of flourishing at LT?

Btw, I don't want Bell starting anywhere. But if he is going to suck at a position, I'd rather it not be Cam's blind side. I think Chandler can be better at LT than Bell. But even then, we still should do more.

I'm like you guys, not a big Bell fan, But also never seen him at LT. However, I'm not a GM or coach, so my insight to the hidden potential is limited. Will say, I agree that O-line is more continuity driven than talent driven.....not to say talent doesn't matter.

I don't know what their plan is and I am hoping for some O-line hog mollies in the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th rd. But right now, I really want a shut down corner

Before you jump on me, please remember this: I think Kony Ealy will be a great player in the NFL, maybe even for us eventually. But adding a defensive end to a team with the 2 best DE duo in the league with a Top 3 or Top 2 defense when you have Byron Bell as a starting tackle makes ZERO sense for the 2014 Carolina Panthers.

People were pissed when we kept drafting at strong points like linebacker and running back under Hurney. No complaints when Getts does it.

We better not effing pay Hardy now. Such a joke... Robinson comes off the board a pick later.

Gettleman you had me after the first and lost me again.

We're already paying him. Hurney did the same thing with Peppers.

You don't just get a shutdown corner after the 2nd round. We need OT depth and hopefully a steal.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
