As they dismantle the Rams, we are going to wish we fleeced them for picks. Would have been nice to get a top TE with 36 this year, a stud level WR as a weapon with their 2024 1st and stud RT to replace a 31 year old Moton in 2025 and save $17.5M in cap that year. Of course to go along with our own pick 39, 2024 2nd and 2025 1st. Could have been a young super offense using FA money and other picks on D.

Yup. Should have pulled the trigger on the Burns trade, but water under the brdige at this point. Can't say it's a bad thing to have a guy with Burns' talent though and since he's going to be around, perhaps the new staff helps him be more consistent.

Was never about him. Of course I’d want him on the team but for pick 36 and 2 more 1sts plus all that cap space for FAs, I’m building around my 1st overall QB not an expensive edge rusher. The Rams sure aren’t acting like they believe in their near term after dumping Ramsey for peanuts and Robinson/not trying to keep OBJ. I almost wonder if McVeigh comes back if we owned their 36, next year’s 1st and 2025 1st. Hard to rebuild an aging team with a QB having a bum elbow when you have no 1sts until 2026 and no 2nds until 2024.

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
