This is not a pass rusher

Not too many of those available for cheap considering our cap situation. It'll be a draft / free agency priority I'm sure. 

Hopefully Wonnum and Barno add to that once healthy. 

In the interim seems like they're taking fliers on guys that have the size / athleticism pedigree and looking to cement this group heading into next year. Horn and Jackson, have been a nice duo so far.

You can never have enough CBs. This guy had a 1st round pedigree, maybe our coaches can get something out of him. Worth taking a chance on him for sure.

Well it's not really DB that is getting decimated with injuries, so it's a little bit of a head scratcher.

Maybe switching to a 3-2-6 defense??

At this point they are trying to find talent wherever they can. If they can find someone legit to play alongside JC then I'm all for it. Probably easier to find disparate talent at the CB position than LB or DE

I mean, The King Of Pop has played quite well. Troy Hill has been struggling somewhat. Maybe they want an upgrade there.

We need help at DE, LB, D-Line, even in the secondary. We can't fill all of them at once, this is another good start. 

I don't think I'm alone but I feel like we're finally starting to build something...

That’s what this year is all about. Building the roster and establishing a culture and system. Gotta start somewhere. I’m glad we picked up Farley. He could be a valuable contributor in the short term and perhaps a potential starter down the road.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
