I'd love it to be Ekonwu, but I think he's going to be the first off the board.

The Jets and Texas are both supposedly looking at CB and WR if they stay and the Giants prefer Neal. I'd say its a good possibility that Ekonwu is there, and a decent chance they both are and the Giants take Thibs and whoever is left at 7.

If we trade down into the first, it's going to be Pickett.  Gut feeling.

And we will likely get some IOL, WR, and DL with the remainder of the draft.  Hopefully IOL in the 2nd if we gain one.

If we stay put? Neal. Gut says Ekwonu and Cross are gone

1. Walker (lol)

2. Thibodeaux

3. Hutchinson? Stingley?

4. Ekwonu (They covet Jermain Johnson but this way they can try to get him at 10/trade up)

5. Cross (or Hutch?)

6. Neal (or) Trade Down w/ NYJ (10), HOU (13), PHI (15).  Land Pickett.

The big wildcard is still Houston.  If they pass on Hutchinson but the Jets covet getting an OT, Could we legimtiately have Hutchinson fall into our laps?

Think we trade back if Willis is gone, take a LT in 1st late round, but with a 2 nd pick take a QB,(Howell or Riddick).

But I think they select a LB, or DE. Last year pick makes me think Rhule likes the unpredictable pick, Horn over Fields ex.

If Willis is there, no doubt, he's the only QB worth taking a risk at 6.

Current Rumor Mill top-5:

1-JAX: Walker DE

2-DET: Thibodeaux DE

3-HOU: Stingley CB

4-NYJ: Hutchinson DE

5-NYG: Charles Cross OT

6-CAR: Ekwonu, Neal or trade down..please just take a tackle

The idea of trading down to lose out on a top talent, just to position ourselves for a QB is not smart.  You stay put or trade up for a QB (philosophy wise, not this draft).  You don't trade back to make it seem like you're not reaching and get a R2-3 caliber QB instead.

      Bust alert - Eight NFL players running out of time to prove themselves entering 2026 season

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Bryce has improved each season, fwiw, statistically.  His slope is rising.  (Not to say I am high on him--I am not, but I have not given up on him--nor have I given up on XL, but damn he pisses me off)  CJ's slope is descending.   I was never a Penix fan.  Never, I say!

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
