Would you be willing to get Mims or Jefferson in Round 2??

These wrs stocks probably going through the roof with the combine. 

 

I'm willing to guess most of you are against taking juedy or lamb with pick 7 , but would you be willing to pick up guys like Mims or Jefferson in R2 assuming we got some home run pick with pick 8 (ex OT, DT, Simmons, Okudah) 

 

And there's the obvious lsu and Baylor connections they have with Brady and Rhule

So many bigger needs than WRs right now. I mean, this is group is epic in ability, but we just need so many other pieces in DL, OL, LB and DB. Maybe with such rich pickings in WRs, it will free up some quality prospects in those other positions for our selections.

I agree we need linemen for both sides.  But this is an exceptional WR class.  Do you pass up a 8/10 WR for a 6/10 OL?  With the draft, it all comes down to value at the pick.  If there's a WR who can become an upgrade for us versus a meh, OL, then it's a no brainer.

I think FA will have DB, and OL depth as an emphasis, and with the return of Cam maybe we can retain some of our own FA's. 

This way when the draft hits Brown or Simmons, in the first and Mims at the top of Rd 2, followed by OG in the 3rd is a nice way to start the 7 picks. I also am not totally unsure that we don't trade back this year at least once, only 7 picks, no comps...then again, if Brown or Simmons is staring you in the face at #7 that's hard to pass up. 

(To add, I wonder with Luke retiring, and Poe under contract does that make Simmons more viable since there is slightly less need for a NT if we keep Poe)

Yes

1. Joe Brady's offense is going to be 3-4 WRs sets vs 2 WR/2TE sets 

2. We have 2 WRs under contract this up coming year.

3. Both of these guys would be top 20 pick in 90% of other drafts 

 

 

Id do backflips for Mims rd 2

In addition, we've met with Jerry Jeudy at the combine. Even though I don't agree, watch out for him being our 1st round pick.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
