Top Picks Left

Branch and Sanders are definitely the top of the board. If they came off I start thinking real hard about a TE.

Porter, Smith, and Ringo are all potential starter talents at CB but I’d prefer to move down a bit before taking one.

This is setting up nicely for a trade back.  If you expand this list, I see 12-13 players I would gladly take in the second round. That probably means 3-4 would be there if we moved back to 50 or so. 

I would caution Scott Fitterer that after the second round, you are probably going for people who will struggle to make the roster--so the pool gets very shallow very quickly.

I’m starting to lean to go Torrence if he’s there. The Eagles just turned their D-Line into an absolute wrecking ball for the next three years. If we’re that confident we’re going to the playoffs then we need excellent guards who can hold up against Philly’s D-line or else we’ve wasted the defense we’ve built.

Brian Branch S/cb. This player could help us tremendously.  If Porter is gone, he could be there for a secondary that is often banged up or burned.

Luke Musgrave TE.

Steve Avila  G TCU.

Darnell  Washington TE Georgia.

O'cyrus Torence G Florida.  Move BC to Swing T and start this guy at LG. 

Josh Downs WR UNC

BJ Ojulari DE LSU.  My preference.  We need an edge opposite Burns.

Clark Phillips cb utah

Drew Sanders LB Arkansas  My emotional favorite.  Can play all 3-4 LB positions with high levels of success.

Maxi Smith  DT Michigan

Sam LaPorta TE Iowa.

Keion White DE Georgia Tech

Damn, we are on the same page.

I'm assuming the Steelers, where his dad played and coached, will snap up Porter.

BJ or Mayer, Mayer gives me Greg Olsen vibes! 

 

I thought Mayer would go in the 1st. I definitely get Greg vibes from him; not the fastest or most athletic, but the dude is always open! Plus he's a damned solid blocker, which a lot of TE aren't these days.

I’m so excited about day 2 I assume this means we’ll trade down to disappoint me lol. Won’t be mad though we certainly need more bodies. 

With 90% of us already knowing that Bryce was our QB for the last few weeks, the draft essentially starts today for us. A lot of talent left on the board.

Think I’d rather go with Avila tbh. Torrence showed up at 330 at the combine but is said to play at around 350. That’s a bit too big for me. Avila plays center too. But I say that without really watching Torrence.

    • 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.          
    • 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.
