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.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      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

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
