We need as many of the following to win:

Houston

Philadelphia 

I can see 2 and maybe 3 realistic winning chances here, but stranger things have happened. I fully expect to draft at 7 or so  but getting to the 5 spot and being ahead of the Falcons will give us a shot at Wilson or Fields, possibly without a trade. Also, while I hate to do it, we need a Saints win. Hopefully next season I can go into the last game of the season wanting to destroy a Saints team with no Drew Brees and wrap up a division championship.

I think (based on my mocks) that the difference between 8 and 9 is huge---you have to consider "how affordable is a trade up?" and worry about getting leap frogged by the Patriots, Colts, Niners, Raiders, or even the Lions.  It is crazy. 

If we landed on 7, I would make an offering to the football Gods.  I see our team coming out fighting like its a bowl game, and we upset the Saints--I see it---scaring me.

An interesting note about the Detroit game, Dalvin Cook will not play for Minnesota. Unfortunately his dad passed away (Prayers for family), and he will not suit up today. 

If I had to guess, the Giants and Eagles have the best chances today. I could see Detroit and Atlanta getting wins if the chips fall in place

      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
