What is your 1st round surprise this year?

So every year there seems to be at least one move in the top 10 that surprises everyone.  So since we don't have anything better to do what are yours?  Doesn't have to be what you think that will happen, but has a small chance of happening.

Cincy - They seem to be a lock to take Burrow, if the trade out it will have to be a monster haul.

Washington - RR takes Simmons over Young.  He likes his LBs

Detroit - all the talk is they want to trade back or take Okuda.  Maybe they really want a QB.  If so they are playing it correctly.  Their only threat is if someone (most likely Miami) trades to 2.  By actining like they aren't interesting they are trying to convince Miami to stay put of Tua.

Giants - Everyone keeps saying Simmons or a tackle.  As LinvilleGorge said in another thread Brown screams a DG pick.

Miami - They decide not to spend the capitol to trade up and/or they aren't sold on Tua's health so they decide to spend all of their draft capitol on other positions and they sign Cam.

San Diego - They decide to draft a LT to protect Cam.

Panthers - We draft Jeudy.  We know we aren't going to be that good this year so we decide to score a lot of points while losing.  Also it will make Teddy look better which will make the decision to cut Cam seem smarter.  All talk screams defensive, just another reason to think maybe we go offense.

If we draft a WR Marty should be fired right away. WR and RB are the only positions we  don’t really need help except maybe punter

We are not good at WR. 

Samuel is heavy meh. 

Moore is solid and Anderson is strictly a deep threat. Given Brady’s scheme and who our QB is we need another WR.

Yeah, I think a lot of fans are really overvaluing Robby Anderson. He's been good for roughly 750 yards and 5-6 TDs over the past couple of seasons. For reference, Samuel had 627 yards and 6 TDs last season and half this fan base is seemingly ready to toss him out with the trash.  Plus, Anderson only signed a two year contract and Samuel is going into the last season of his rookie deal.

so chase young somehow falls to 7 and we pass him up for jerry jeudy, a position which is extremely deep this year and that can be had in later rounds?

ill give you points for accuracy, that's something hurney would definitely do.

This is why the Panthers will draft a reciever

San Diego??? I do it too.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miami will trade up with Washington, not Detroit, to get Tua.

The Lions then take Young.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Giants trade with LAC, who moves up for Herbert, fearing being leapfrogged. 

The Redskins then take CB Okudah.

The Giants trade again, this time with Jacksonville at #8 for their third rounder.   The Jags leapfrog the Panthers, talking DT Brown. (Assuming the Panthers might want him)

7.  Panthers trade:  With 3 elite tackles left, and T being a primary need for the Giants (now 8th) Cardinals (9th),  Browns (10th) and Jets (11th),  Tampa Bay moves up in a rare inter-division trade, moving from 14 to 7th to get a tackle to protect Tampa Brady.   Tampa Bay gets the #7 and #148 (the fifth rounder we got from Washington for Allen) for the #14 and #45 picks of the Buccaneers.

7.  Tampa Bay selects Wirfs OT Iowa

8. New York Giants select Simmons, OLB Clemson

9.  The Arizona Cardinals select Becton, OT Louisville

10. The Cleveland Browns grab Wills, OT, Bama

11.  The New York Jets select OT Thomas, UGA

12. The Las Vegas Raiders select WR Cee Dee Lamb, Oklahoma

13.  The San Francisco 49ers trade with Baltimore Ravens, who move up for LSU DE/OLB Claisson.

14.  The Carolina Panthers select DT Javon Kinlaw, the USC. 

  • In the second round, they select Auburn CB Noah Igbinoghene and LSU C Cushenberry III
  • In the third round, the Panthers select DE Greenard, UF

I could see that. But it would seem we didn't get enough back in this trade down scenario.

      2025 Schedule Release - post 'em when you find 'em

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
