Sunday:

We're gonna be calling Derek Carr tomorrow to talk contract. He's asking for a lot.

Monday:

Derek Carr is signing with the Saints.

Tuesday:

The Ravens have placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Lamar Jackson. We can make a trade offer.

Also Tuesday:

We're not gonna pursue Lamar Jackson.

Wednesday:

We're restructuring Taylor Moton's contract for cap space. Also there are rumors we might be trying to trade up in the Draft.

Thursday:

Rumors continue to swirl that we may try and trade up, but the price will likely be high.

Friday:

We've traded up to #1 in the NFL Draft, with trade compensation less than might have been expected.

...

It's been quite a week.

And on the seventh day, they rested.

I was tempted to add a biblical reference but resisted 😄

But Leaky Faucet said we really wanted Carr 😂

No they didn't. They said we were interested and calling to talk money, but the Saints swooped in first.

Even had the conversation occurred though, there's no guarantee it would have led to a signing (there never was).

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
