Recommended Posts

Before I head into work-some things I've seen floating around today:

  • Daniels seems a lock at #2
  • Pats seem locked on Maye at #3, AZ with Marv at #4
  • LAC-Latham love is real, but fans want Nabers - To trade or not to trade?
  • Philly has multiple people thinking they're trading up, same with the Cards from Pick 27
  • Falcons are definitely taking calls at 8 depending on who's available 
  • Bills are making calls and want a receiver

Feel free to add more as things trickle in today - looking at you tweet embedders (+Juan)

Maye at 3 seems like a steal

Maybe, that footwork is horrendous. 

people only care about footwork when the ball ain't going where it needs to be.  Lot of the best QBs in the NFL have mechanics you would rage against the average QB adopting.  I mean, Mahomes is hopping on one foot throwing the ball lefthanded underneath his leg with his eyes closed.  But it lands in Kelce's hands for TD.

JPJ is a available at 33#,i hope that's true.

It is starting to look like it--such a run on WR at the end of the draft--

If Nix is there, it could make pick #33 marketable.  Same for JPJ.

 

Powers-Johnson (C)  To me, a pro-bowl level C for the next decade is worth a second rounder.  (see Kalil, Ryan)

Legette (WR)   There are rumors that Kansas City and New England like him.

Coleman (WR)  An early favorite, he has tailed off.  The big Mike Evans WR Canales may covet?

Sainitstril (CB) Lotta folks projecting the nickel CB to the Panthers

Rakestraw (CB) Probably not.

Pearsall (WR)  Possible, but only if we trade back to the mid second?

Wilson (LB)  I can't see Morgan not falling in love with Wilson.  We always seem to draft LBs when we think we don't need them  (Beason to replace Morgan; Luke to replace Beason)

Cooper (LB) He can't read the play as quickly as Wilson, but he is a dawg who can cover ground.  I'd take him over Wilson due to the injury history--since I do not have access to medicals)

Franklin (WR)  The guy nobody is talking about. 

Worthy (WR)  The success of Zay Flowers and Tank Dell have helped Worthy.

Frazier (C)

    • 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.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
