How do you know a guy like Penning or maybe Cross won’t be there? Either of those guys could very easily be available at 13. People are acting like picking in the top 6 is the only way to get a starting LT. 

I think Penning could, but you're taking a huge risk. What if the top 4 OT are off the board at 13? Then what do we do?

this is interesting I know that this just might be a “just in case“ kind of thing but it makes you wonder if people have already talked

They should have Common go up to announce the pick when its Matt Forte's turn, and just act like he's Matt Forte.

COMMON on Twitter: "Thanks to my guy Matt Forte for coming out to support the @commongroundfnd and the kids of Chicago! http://t.co/qMtjcrF9Em" / Twitter

I'm not sure if he'd trade down or not, if this scenario unfolds--Pick 13 is on the edge of the blue chip talent dip they talk about at the beginning of the 1st round. There could be some real top ten talent left that slipped to be snatched up....

Fitterer said 6 and 20 were the drop off points. 13 is smack dab in the middle.

Especially this year.  This draft seems weaker in the top 10 and deeper in rounds 2/3, and look at us with a top 10 pick and no 2nd/3rd....

This is why I understand the rationale for trading down to pick up additional choices in the 2nd and/or 3rd round. Teams are going to find some really solid players in the draft after the 1st round is finished. Let's be honest, if BC or one of our other lineman had proven to be capable in 2021 and  we weren't desperate for a LT for the 2022 season, how many players in this years class do you think we'd be all hyped up for?

I don't see any can't miss/superstar players in this draft class based on the scouting reports and college resumes, although I know some will end up excelling if placed in the right situation.

In his interview he said teens was where they would want to move to and 20 would be the absolute furthest back.

There is no talent at 13 that is as good as any top 6 talent. 

So many on here are desperate for more picks in the first 2 days, that their willing to give up a teir 1 talent. 

fug that bs. 

Tend to agree. I’d rather we get a potential All-Pro at a premium position like OT or DE than draft at 13 and throw darts at the dartboard with the additional picks we accumulate. Crapshoot if we go down that road.

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By Seltzer · Posted

      By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

      Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

      That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
