I feel like the draft is starting to turn our way in terms of the extreme performances we are seeing from Pitts  and the WR group. Right now I see us getting a QB (Fields or Lance) or Sewell at 8, which would be an absolute home run

The Jones pick helps the juice falling to 8.

Everyone but Lions Detroit and Cincinnati is sorta set. I guess ATL could be a unknown. I feel one of these three will draft Pitts. WRs are the next to fall. 

 

Panthers need to hold...HOLD and not fall victim to draft BS. no matter what happens, if Jones gos 3rd- Sewell, Chase, Fields, Lance, or maybe even Pitts will be there at 8. Let others panic and trade future 1s 2s 3s to draft a unknown......8 will have a player at similar talent level. 

If ATL gets Pitts...... Chinn just got even more add value.

I think another player could be picked in top 7, no one is talking about Kwity Paye. 

Failcons or Lions need a DL force and there only one in this draft- Kwity Paye.

Paye played every single position on DL, including nose and wide 9. All he did was cause problems.

In fact It wouldnt hurt if the panthers drafted him at 8 either- Reddick-Brown-Paye-Burns....all young and cause havoc. 

Honestly the experts are missing the ball big time on Paye. That group is super weak too, it should drive his value up!

That draft is the dream for Carolina.  No way it falls that clean.

Atlanta is going to pick a QB, nothing else makes sense. 

"Matt Ryan!!11!11!"

Dude is 37 by start of next season.  AT BEST he's got a couple years left.  The FO there needs to realize that if they've done their job, they won't be picking this high again (just like ours).  They've got an aging QB on big money and an opportunity to get a young franchise guy.

I just can't see Atlanta passing on a QB . . . ESPECIALLY if SF goes Jones.

I also cannot see a scenario where Cincy, Detroit and Miami **ALL** pass on tackles.  One of those three will take a tackle, with Cincy the most likely given their experience with Burrow last season.

I can see this, but do they draft a QB at 4 and sit him for a few years? They need an impact player especially with Matt Ryan getting up there in age. Pitts would give them Julio, Ridley, and Pitts with Ryan airing it out. If their line can stay healthy that could be one of the top offenses. The 4th best QB to sit a year or two versus the best weapon in the draft? Unless they are just in love with Lance or Fields I would bet on Pitts. The man put up Megatron numbers with a longer wingspan! I could throw the ball to Pitts/Julio/Ridley!

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By strato · Posted

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
