Mock Draft has us taking Mac Jones and the Falcons...

I really believe the off-season workouts are going to be vital this season. However, at this point, I think Jones at this spot is a major reach. He has accuracy but limited arm strength. That sounds all too familiar and uninspiring. 

I put Jones and Trask in the same category. They’re both good game managers but limited athletically. I can’t see either going top 10.

Yeah no way Mac Jones going top 10 lol. Life is much easier when you have that OL and 3 1st round WR's to throw to. Zack Wilson and CMC in the back field would be filthy though fr if we can get the man's some protection.

Yep 2nd sentence is why Alabama quarterbacks don't translate.

Exactly. Minus Tua but anyone with eyes could tell he's on a complete different level than Mac Jones when healthy lol.

A big part of it was Saban and crew realizing that playing dominant D and leaning on a dominant running game and throwing when absolutely necessary just wasn't gonna get it done anymore in the modern college football game. Not in terms of competing for championships anyway.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
