KInda bad news for those hoping we move down (assuming both want Lynch).

With Broncos looking to move up, Cleveland will have to move up higher than 30.

Kinda GREAT news.  GMan's presser "go quarterbacks go" applies.  Again JNo is 5th year optioned for $7.5 million this year if he's a first rounder.  Cam and Luke were  extended an extra year, Star will be playing far under open market rate, etc.  A trade would have to be SWEET to give that up.  Go quarterbacks go!

I just don't see anyone trading up for Cook or Hackenberg. Lynch is likely going in the first. But teams will have to move up higher than pick 30 to get him.

Even Goff and Wentz are not top 5 prospects, but teams have given up a ton for them in the top spots.  Would be great if all 5 were gone before our pick.  Wouldn't surprise me.

Could increase the chances of Cook or Hackenburg going before 30.  I'm rooting for LBs and QBs to get some traction.  Someone really good could fall to us. 

In my heart of hearts, I truly believe we will get one of the top 15 on our board, at least, at #30.

I could see us trading down with Tennessee for 2 2nd rounders and a 4th or something. But don't expect it.

I don't think there was really ever any chance of Denver not moving up.  There's been waaaay too much talk about teams wanting to trade up with us to leapfrog them.  They're not gonna just sit back and let that happen.  I'm glad, I didn't want to trade back anyway.

Watch for one of the other qbs to go in the first. Hackenberg is the name I am hearing.

Yeah, people seem to have forgotten that after his freshman year Hackenberg was assumed to be a future number 1 overall pick. Then O'Brien left for the NFL and he struggled; but someone is gonna take a shot on his talent, and I think it'll be in the first.

Honestly I think I like him more than Lynch (who may go top 10 now) and Cook. Then there are guys like Prescott and Jones who are total wildcards. Even if you don't include the teams picking in the top 2, you could argue there are about 10 teams that could go quarterback early. I could see 5 going before our pick, which may stink from a "trade back" viewpoint, but is very attractive from a BPA perspective.

This is very good for bpa. Qb is the only position that we know gman won't draft at 1. Even lb isn't safe if we plan to convert them to safety or de. Every Qb that comes of the board is someone left for us.

I still think there is a fair to good chance a player slides down to us who we havent considered a possibility because of the run on qbs and lbs early in the draft. If an OT or DT slides DG will grab him pretty quick, he has four first rd grades on OTs per his presser.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
