Leaving out STs, rank these 12 positions.  Currently we have seven draft picks (1st, 2nd(a), 2nd(b), 3rd, 4th(a), 4th(b) and a 5th).  Here are mine:

QB-1

WR-3

RB-6

TE-2

IOL-8

OT-12

 

DE-5

DT-9

ILB-4

OLB-7

CB-11

S-10

If nothing changes and we don't move down for anymore picks, OL, DB and DT will have to wait for undrafted FAs or low-end UFAs.

We match up until the last two picks. Why secondary over other needs when DBs are arguably the strength/most depth on the team?  All starters are back and we are 5 deep at CB.  We just need backup safeties and as much as we joke about Temple players, I imagine Franklin will be re-signed if nothing more than his STs play.  Finding S#4 shouldn't be too difficult to sift through in FA.

D-Jax might be done and I'm honestly not sold on Horn's durability. We could use more depth there.

I'll want for a legit sideline to sideline deep FS until we have one. Deon Grant is the closest we ever came.

1-QB

2-WR - The position is just a bigger impact than TE and I don't trust who we have.  We need to find a star to help propel this offense.  If we can get a star TE, then sure, but otherwise, I think WR is the higher priority.

3-TE - Would love this to becoming a position of focus again in our offense.  Geodart, Kelce, Andrews all seem like integral pieces to their respective teams and would be killer to find a guy.  

4-IDL - Brown has been a great story but we need a 3-down smushing multi-tech guy next to him to help shore the front.

5-LB - A clear need, Shaq will be gone.  Luvu and Wilson can only provide us so much. B Smith is TBD

6-DE - A fair need with YGM ain't thriving, Haynes not being a 3-down guy, and unsure if Barno has starter potential

7-RB - Foreman and Hubbard are aight but we need fresh legs

8-C - Bozeman restructure dependent

9-DB - Lumping all together due to versatility these days.  

10-OG - Brady & Corbett are the starters going forward, could use depth

11-OT - Is this a parallel universe?

      Yea but they are also playing horrible QBs  (for the Hawks especially both Darnold And Purdy have thrown 6 int in their last 4 )  as for the Texans, just color me as thinking the Pats very easy schedule will be exposed, they did almost NOTHING vs steelers and the Texans defense is anther level from that

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      Yeah we should never trade home grown pro bowl talent no matter what people on this board say. Burns and the CMC trade both turned out to be bad for us and I would take both on the team right now in a heartbeat. You can’t tell me we don’t miss someone who can get double digit sacks.

      During parts of the season, you told me that Brian Burns was not the primary pass rusher on the Giants. I told you that that's not what the stats or the actual play were saying. Bucky Brooks was thinking something similar to you pre-season, and I'm pretty sure he wasnt still pontificating about Burns' play during the season, but here is what he's saying now:   "When the Giants traded for Burns two offseasons ago and immediately signed him to a new blockbuster deal (five years for $141 million with $87.5 million guaranteed), I questioned whether his performance would match the compensation. As a speed-rushing specialist with just one double-digit-sack season (12.5 in 2022) prior to his arrival in New York, Burns had not consistently dominated off the edge. However, the 27-year-old shut me up in 2025 with a spectacular season that featured 16.5 sacks, 22 tackles for loss, 31 quarterback hits, seven passes defensed and three forced fumbles. Wreaking such havoc on a four-win football team only underscored his individual dominance. Considering his numbers and impact as a playmaker in his third Pro Bowl season, Burns served me a slice of humble pie that I couldn't refuse."   Now, you can go to the old, stale take that he can't lead the D-line, but I will say that most everyone needs help. Burns is not generational like Julius Peppers, but he obviously has the skills and the motivation (after his payday, mind you) to be a force unto himself, if not a force multiplier. And, with John Harbaugh coming in, Burns will probably only get better as he will likely get put in a better situation to succeed, or at least sustain his success.   Speaking of being put into a better situation to succeed, I recall our buddy @Basbear mentioning this guy during preseason: Devin Lloyd "Last offseason, Jacksonville chose to decline the former first-round pick’s fifth-year option due to inconsistent production. Lloyd responded admirably, showing the football world that he’s a baller with elite playmaking skills. The impending free agent finished the season with six takeaways -- five interceptions (including a 99-yard pick-six of Patrick Mahomes) and a fumble recovery -- while also displaying outstanding range as a sideline-to-sideline defender. A resilient player who enjoyed the best season of his career following a sticky contract situation and training camp battle, Lloyd silenced the skeptics who questioned his big-play potential and overall game."   Now of course, our friend was talking in terms of possibly trading Jalen Coker for Lloyd. Many would still balk at that after Coker's big time breakout against the Rams, but the fact is is that it was a discussion worth having. Lloyd is a big time defender, though several of you tried to tell us that he was nothing special, notwithstanding solid stats even during the 2024 season. Lloyd looks to be a very nice 'backer for years to come, and he's likely gonna be paid highly. We probably can't afford him now, with all our needs and possible extensions (Coker being one, but a cheaper one), but fate apparently never had Lloyd in our cards to begin with.  https://www.nfl.com/news/caleb-williams-george-pickens-and-tyler-shough-among-10-nfl-players-who-proved-me-wrong
