Round 1: OT DJ Humphries Florida

Prototypical LT. Needs some refinement but the ability and potential are there. 

 

 

Round 2: DE Preston Smith Miss St. 

 

Good size and athleticism. Nice depth and insurance for when Johnson leaves. Might be a stretch thinking he will still be on the board here.

Round 3: WR Justin Hardy ECU

 

Perfect guy to put in the slot that just knows how to get open with sure hands. 

 

 

 

Round 4: OLB Jordan Hicks Texas

 

Solid career at Texas. Finished last year with like 138 tackles. Solid athlete. 

 

 

 

Rounds 5-7 tbc.....

Good potential and depth.

I would love it. Smith would be a coup in the second. I think he's a candidate for our first round pick as well. Wouldn't be shocked to see us trade up a bit to get him if he starts falling in the second.

 

thanks. tried to make it realistic, answering our needs with quality players.

Good draft but idk about Humpries. Not only has he never played at over 300 lbs but has already had injury issues and his pro comparison have been guys who haven't done well in the NFL. I really want Gurley or trade down and acquire more picks.

      I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
