These guys

I'd love it if Mayer falls to us, but I am very much on board with Washington, especially with knowing how important protecting Young will be.  He's massive and almost a OT as is, I think he could be great to have as an in-line TE who can help with protection as well.

After those two I'd like BJ, wouldn't be against Downs either but would prefer either TE over him.

Agreed. I think both those Mayer and Washington have a reputation of loving to block as well as being big targets. I mean, if it were me making the pick and either of them were there, it would be 1 of them. I think edge is a bigger need though. A speedy wr would almost be a luxury, but I think we might go wr a bit later.

Yea I'd prefer Mayer, I was hoping we would trade back in at the end of the round there to get him.

But I'm figuring someone will take him before we come around, which is why I was talking about Washington there more.

Pass rusher may be a bigger need than TE, but I think high level pass catchers is a bigger need than pass rusher right now, need to get Young weapons, and there aren't any WRs I like as much as either TE at this point.  And I think you can find effective rookie pass rushers later in the draft easier than you can find impact TE's and I think both of those guys fit with what we need right now to both protect Young and give him more weapons.

Just don't take an OL, I know Fitterer has talked about that as a need, but we have a starting OL in place, really don't want an OL in the 2nd with our other needs.

Trade back few spots or pick Ojulari and call it a day. Don't forget Darius Brents, DJ turner, Darius Rush, Trenton Simpson jaylin Hyatt, Josh Down, Marvin Mims .....still available as well.

Agree on Ojulari but trade back if gone. Too many players can do all that.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By NCBlu · Posted

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
