I'll be happy with Sewell or Lance; Slater as a distant 3rd.  Anything else is going to be somewhat of a letdown.  If we take a skill position without a trade down, I'm throwing something at the TV.

Love Lance’s potential, but do you think we should get him at 8? I wouldn’t be upset with it just curious. My order is Sewell, Fields, and then maybe trade down? I need to watch more film of Slater something about him is throwing me off for the number 8 pick...

He has the most upside of the 'big 4'.   His biggest knock is his not ready to start now.  With Darnold here, he wouldn't have to AND we won't have to fall back on Teddy either.  Slater I'm okay with, just not at #8.  If we move back 3-4 spots and he's still there, I'm good with it.  I agree, I think he's a better athlete than a completely rounded OT.  Having two franchise QBs on rookie deals sets us up for big things in two years when Darnold is set to be a FA.  Most teams would be  jealous to be in such a situation.

I was really opposed to an OT with our first round pick, but now Darnold is here, It's right there at the top of the list.  If we do draft Sewell, I'll be very happy.

Current pff line grades. Jesus i wouldn't be upset with 3 or so OL selections in the draft. We only have 1 (Moton) starter quality OL on our roster. Yikes. 

Dennis Daley - 64

Pat Elflein - 48

Cameron Erving - 58

Mike Horton - n/a 

Martez Ivey - n/a 

Matt Kaskey - n/a

Greg Little - 4.4  (you missed something)

Aaron Monteiro - n/a

Taylor Moton - 81

Matt Paradis - 63

Trent Scott - 60

Sam Tecklenburg - n/a

John Miller - 61

There, that seems more accurate.

We're in a terrific position to build up our o-line with this draft. Our first pick could reasonably be the best LT in the draft, and our second pick could be the best OG prospect in Alijah Vera-Tucker. Building a great o-line will help us to properly evaluate Darnold, and he won't have the excuse of the o-line not protecting him. Protect Darnold and if dump him if he poops the bed this coming season.

I like this too. But There is a good chance tucker might not make it to our second round pick. I like the idea of grabbing creed Humphrey in the second and playing him a guard this season and then he could slide over to center next year once we dump paradis. Slater and Humphrey are brickwall OL to me. O line instantly becomes a strength.

I know we need at least a left tackle and guard in this draft and I wouldn't be upset if we drafted a second guard or center as well. Give me sewell or slater in the first, ben cleveland or Quinn meinerz in the 2nd or 3rd would prefer both. Others to look at if sewell and slater are gone draft radunz in the 2nd. Also mid t late round interior lineman trey hill, jack anderson, david moore, deonte brown

Yes, we need OL, but if you look at the DB situation, we are not in a good, long-term place.   We need to draft a DB or 2 as well--30+ year old CBs,  Jackson in a contract year---Burris, Franklin, and Robinson at S (when Chinn is at LB)....

Hopefully Verge says differently, but I just don't think we have much of a shot here at Sewell. I just can't see 7 teams passing on this guy. How often do you see this talented and NFL ready LT's? I will be ecstatic if we some how land Sewell. 

It seems pretty settled--we are fairly certain that 4 QBs go before us, a LT, Pitts, and maybe Chase.

He's far more potential than many are admitting.

His technique needs a lot of work and, to be honest, he doesn't have a prototypical NFL OT build. 

I'm not saying he's a bad player, but he's not this 'generational' prospect many are making him out to be imo.

If both Pitts/Sewell are on the board at 8, it would be wet dream scenario.

 

I have no clue what they would do.

 

I’m going to be over the moon if we get either. I’d be perfectly happy with Slater too, but Pitts and Sewell are the type of prospects that we have no business having a chance at.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By NCBlu · Posted

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
