Double Dip in the 2nd. Yay or Nay?

Yes--if the talent is there, but I do not see it happening.  I would rather trade the thirds and grab a starting OL and S and close up shop until tomorrow. (Double dip in the second round)

I'm with you on this. Ideally, we sit tight at 47 and get the best o-lineman, then use our thirds to go up and get a FS. 

That being said, I would be very excited to completely rejuvenate our pass rush in one draft potentially.

i don't think we need another 3-4 OLB type like Burns, but i'm not convinced we have enough personnel at DE for the 3-4. I know we won't play in it all the time, but we need another 285-290 pound type. Zack Allen could work and likely could play immediately.

Use the 3rds to get us another pick in the 2nd, get FS and OL. 

If we do it right, that’s 3 starters in the first 2 rounds. Use Saturday to get you a backup QB if you want, as well as another DE, and maybe a RB.

DTs are suddenly gone-Saunders or Jones could be in play---but I think the pick is going to be Little or Rapp.  As much as you do not like Little at T, they can work him at G now.  Look at his measurables--off the charts.  35" Arms, 101/4 hands. 

Overview

Little possesses the important combination of size, length and quickness as a prototypical left tackle prospect. While he wasn't asked to do it much in 2018, he has the athletic ability to handle zone-blocking duties, which could suit his skill-set more than a physical rush attack. Little is a natural bender with good feet and pepper in his punch as blind-side protector, but his average anchor and inconsistent body control create some concern. He will be an early starter at left tackle, but needs to improve his strength and eliminate his tendency to lean in order to reach the potential his physical and athletic traits offer.

He needs some work.  play him at LG and develop him for a season at LT---I guess that would work.  Do not understand the hate based on his athletic ability and measureables.

That is a good draft, regardless of what we do on day 3--where we take the backup QB and maybe one of the deep WRs.

Burns won't be starting right away nor would any linemen unless at guard. About the only position where we could find an immediate starter is at Safety or Corner if they slide Jackson inside. There weren't plug and play O linemen in the first yet alone later. Sure these guys will rotate in but they aren't better than who we have as starters now.

    • I hope we're not going all in this year. We couldn't outright win our own division with a losing record. We had 2 anomalous wins. Typically you aren't going to win scoring 13 and have your opponent have an absolute train wreck offense.  Also, a team scoring 16 on 6 trips to the red zone is not normal either. I'm not trying to be a pessimist. We're not there. Bryce isn't there. Most of the year our offense legitimately struggled and the missing piece wasn't a TE. Keep building through the draft and reasonable FA. When we have a team that's on the edge of being able to make a legitimate SB run, then go all in. Otherwise, going all in right now feels like another Bryce situation. Sell out and pray. That's not how consistent winners are built. 
    • XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie. 
    • I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....
