No Pitts? Slater gone? Pene off the board?

No way Lance, Fields, Sewell and Salter are all off the board.  Like zero chance and that is the only way I'm cool taking a corner.  Even then it had be in a trade back and not at #8.  Frankly, I'd still prefer Darrisaw over a corner, but I wouldn't be too upset.

Especially if Miami wants him. They would gladly trade up with ATL. 

Just FYI for young football fans who might be on this forum, please don't be fooled by phony sports journalists. They make stuff up and pretend like they have inside information on who will be drafted by which teams. NFL teams, unless they have the #1 over pick, don't go around leaking out who they are taking in the draft. That could harm the team due to trading or other reasons. The draft targets remain a secret until the pick is made.

Horn started this process as a mid 2nd round pick. All of a sudden he’s #8? He didn’t blow people away at his pro day. His tape isn’t lockdown. I see him as a late 1st at best..

 

If Slater, Pitts, and Sewell are all gone then that means either Chase or Fields are on the board. I’m not passing on either of them to pick Horn at 8.

Chase. I'm taking elite talent. Sorry, not sorry.

I would say that after trading for Darnold, Chase doesn’t just sit as a BPA. You could argue he’s a need player as well. We have two proven pass catchers (other than our running back). If one of them goes down this offense becomes very very weak.

    • In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit. 
    • Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
