Morgan has said we will not trade up,  will make a pick at 33 or trade down.  Gotta build all around.

Yeah? Well your name makes it difficult to trust you when talking about Morgan, unless that is who you really are! 😀 I know he said that, but how can you say that before free agency ends?  Do you trust everything GMs say during this time of year?  I tend to trust Morgan, but when the dust settles, he could see trading up as the best option.  I hope he does not-and I have a feeling Braswell will be our guy-I also have a feeling that Chop Robinson may fall into the second round.

I see your point, but in an effort to build a complete roster I would do my best to stack prospects.  Honestly, if Chop and Darius Robinson were available at 33/39 I'd grab them both and push WR to the 3rd/4th rounds. 

Could you imagine the damage a front 3 of DB, AR, and Darius Robinson would cause?  Having that 1 player who is a stand out would be great.  Turner is the only one that is that guy, in my opinion, in the 1st round. 

Honestly, I'm liking Chris Braswell more and more as well.  When the scouting report reads "He plays with his pants on fire..." and the biggest knock is they don't think he has enough "ankle flexation" I'd take a gamble on that guy.

The top 3 sack leaders from the 2023 draft were all drafted outside of the first round. All were mid to late 3rd rounders.  Just saying, with good scouting (lately pretty rare on Mint St) we have options.

Yeah, I just wanted to get some open minded discussion going.  Too often we make an assumption early and never consider all options.  How many drafts have you walked away from thinking, "Well I never saw that coming"  Good stuff here.

I always thought his name was in reference to the rum

You aren't trading two high second round picks to move up in the first.  That would be the equivalent of the 15th pick according to Jimmy Johnson.  Who in the middle of the first outside of Brock Bowers would help us, right now, more than two high second round picks.  At this point we need more players than pedigree.

If Bowers or one of the top three receivers are there at 15, I'd have to strongly consider trading those two seconds. Bowers is a freaking beast.

If you were Dan Morgan, that is what he would WANT you to believe!  I am pretty sure I blew his cover and his mind!!!

No, you are probably right.  I was just joking at my expense.

I think a great WR or TE is worth more than two pretty good WRs or TEs.  There is only one ball.

I think Denver has us beat.

Nah I watch Nat'l tv shows daily, and there is no other team in the league who gets laughed at more than us. They were discussing Mike Williams this morning on ESPN and they basically laughed at us for even being mentioned. They made the entire conversation about how he would fit with the Jets.

 

We have become the worst team in the NFL. Mainly because of Tepper. I have come to embrace the suckery! It's kind of humbling honestly. Never thought we would be that franchise, yet here we are...

i'm happy with Braswell, but if Chop dropped to 28, I'd think about moving up with our 4th.  But who knows where he is on our board?

I'm not as sold on Morgan as some of you, although I like what he's done so far.  Ain't nothing I can do but watch and keep my fingers crossed.

I did a mock, but I do not get the Chop love--looking at his numbers.   I need to look more into it.  I see him as a dropper, based on what I know right now.  Braswell is a "DAWG" and I bet Morgan likes him.

Here is the mock I did just to see what it would look like:

      Scheme and fit matter definitely, but if you are an NFL QB (especially a talented one) there will be flashes and some signs. I think the ones that get their careers broken are in inadequate offenses (bad weapons, bad OL, no running game etc…) and a constant turnover of staff can do it. Basically what the Bears did with Fields and what we have done with Bryce so far.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      I mean when Rhule was on the hot seat and finally got fired, we got pumped and Wilks truly brought some culture back to the team for a brief window. Reich came in and when he got canned there was no hope or excitement, we actually got worse and we are still kinda there until proven otherwise. Some are basically trying to sell this as BY's actual rookie year as well which doesn't exactly draw up much enthusiasm and tempers expectations whether that was their intention or not.

      Yes, but Bryce Young is what amplifies that concern for me for a super green HC and OC.   it’s all and marriages by Tepper IMO.  Canales and the new OC probably would have a better time getting their O running with a vet QB that is a natural fit.   again, I’m not arguing Canales and Morgan should be catering to Bryce at this point.  Just pointing out how pointless drafting Bryce looks at this stage.  And I don’t disagree you either can play or can’t and the O is irrelevant at this level.   I mean fit matters at this level.  Everyone is too talented.  Fit makes or breaks careers.
