This might be the deepest class at OT i have ever seen, i wouldnt be mad if they took Pitts and get OT in the second.

I doubt he slips by ATL, Cincy and Miami. 

 

Pray its a qb heavy draft with trade ups, pray the skill positions go early (chase and Pitts) and maybe we get lucky Sewell drops to us

Sometimes when I’m trying to last longer I bed, I try to name all of our linemen including backups and practice squad. I dream of the day when I can’t last beyond the starting 5 because of how big, mean, and nasty they are.

Way too much information, friend

If something strange happens in the draft and one of the top four is still available, you take the QB.  If the draft falls as most expect it to, then you BPA.  We have so many needs that no matter who he is, the BPA will help us get better.

My ideal is trading back with baltimore. Our #8 and 3rd rounder for their 28th and Orlando Brown. 

Value of Brown around 20th to 17th overall. 

Only if Fields, Sewell, and Pitts are not there. They can go get Slater or Darrisaw to replace Brown on the cheap and get an extra pick.

 

Would extend Brown and Moton. Build the bookends 1st.

You can't pay two franchise tackles, it just doesn't work that way.  If, as it seems, our intent is to pay Moton then we can't bring in a veteran franchise level bookend.  We need to find that guy in the draft.  Preferably in the first round, so you get five years to wind down Moton's contract before you pay new guy.

My ideal first 3 picks.  Build the line. Then put St. Brown in the slot and let him go to work.  Another option could be go CB/S in round 3 and add Demetric Felton in round 4 as a gadget guy.

How about Dyami brown in round 3 with 73th pick? It sound like a Crazy to me or nah?

    • I agree it is more about the OL. If you happen to have a world beater with a great OL then that’s better obviously but you don’t need to have that.  Capable and durable guys that can get to the second level with good blocking can be plenty.  
    • I think Gibbs is special, but you’re right, some of the top investments have proven to not be much different than some 2nds and 3rds. Taylor for example is on an MVP level season. James Cook is doing better than Breece Hall for example. Raiders weren’t in a good spot to draft Jeanty. Same with the Falcons/Bijan.  You gotta swing at the right time — the investment shouldn’t come too early. You almost have to stumble into a guy mid to late rounds while building or find that guy to put you over the top when the team is finally well rounded.
    • Like I said in another post yesterday, the handling of the offensive line by Fitterer and mostly Morgan has been crazy. We've spent way too much money(Lewis and Hunt) to keep Bryce upright instead of using our picks in the 2nd round on JPJ and Frazier. Could have kept an injured Corbett at guard, Brady at swing, and still taken Maye as a backup, sorry Zavala. We wouldn't have taken XL, but XL hasn't been as advertised anyway, and Brooks hasn't contributed anything. Moton's extension with it's signing bonus made him uncutable. Icky's contract was due at the same time Bryce's 3rd year ended, and we all know it's extension or 5th year, and if we're going to do a 5th year, he's going to want the extension.  To me the whole thing is just ridiculous. Right now, depending on if Tepper decides to keep Bryce, it feels like we're going to have to choose between Icky and a Bryce extension. Maybe he plays on the 5th year, but I think he'll want the big money guarantee.  JMO, but if you took a look at how the contracts could potentially fall, the writing was on the wall that this could be a cash flow nightmare. Too many contract guarantees, not enough rookie contracts to offset the upcoming paydays.
