Its looking like the Jets could win, but the Raiders will likely lose. So that would bump us up from Pick #8 to pick #7

Where we were 2 or 3 weeks ago. I can't remember a draft where I was so ambivalent about having a top 10 pick.  This class is extremely mediocre at the top.  Where we need to kill it is in the middle rounds where the value is at.

Teams above us: 

1. Titans 2. Browns 3. Giants 4. Patriots 5. Jaguars 6. Jets 7. Raiders

We know most likely, at least a couple QBs will go ahead of us. Someones going to draft the top OT, another team will get Travis Hunter. So that is at least 4 players we've got no shot at.

That leaves 3 more teams ahead of us that could select other players. The early projections have Will Johnson and Mason Graham being the best blue chip defenders on the board.  Someone will likely take Tet McMillain as top WR off the board. 

So that is going to leave use with Abdul Carter, Mykel Williams, James Pearce Jr, Jaylon Walker, Nick Scourton, and Malaki Starks as the best players available for us. 

Very early in the process, but its trending towards DE/Pass rusher at pick 8

I think if he drops to us, Tetairoa McMillan could be a dark horse pick at 8 if he drops to us. Despite how desperate they probably are to fix the defense, having a bonafide #1 WR would be nice too. But you'd absolutely NEED to hit on some defensive picks in the mid rounds.

And spend our relatively limited cap space on mostly defensive free agents.

He is not the type of reciever we need, and he is overrated

They did this season and the results were...let's say historic, but not in a good way.

Our biggest free agent signings were the two offensive linemen.  Defensively, I don't think we made any big splash signings. Got a few players who might have been good backups if Shaq and Brown hadn't gotten injured.

Their not going to be able to make big splashes this offseason. It going to be moderately priced FA players looking to make a name for themselves if they are lucky.

That is why I said relatively limited. We might make one splash signing and that is about it. For the defense to improve significantly, we will need to hit on several picks and hope our better players (mainly Brown/Horne) stay healthy.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      The last thing I will say, because I'm not going down this Bryce Young rabbit hole again, especially with said poster: You guys aren't the only people who see what you see.  Stop focusing on small minority of fans and voices.  The media has accepted Bryce Young isn't anything more than a game-manager at best.  You can literally look up "Bryce Young Franchise QB" and the only thing that pops up is that the Panthers MAY be viewing him as one, but no media outlet supports it.  The vast majority of fans accept he won't ever be the guy. It is such a stupid conversation for this reason.  You guys get so tripped up over such a small minority.  Bryce Young SUCKS.  We get it.   And feel free to continue to converse about it.  It is a discussion forum.  Have at it.  But can we just stop using words like "retard" to describe people who might not want to go as far as you all do?  Or acting like you have some unique ability to see things in the game that others can't?  There is no "mythos" around Bryce Young except in your head.

      Only thing I’ve seen that says it on is TWSN sports which is notorious for clickbait titles and in the articles it usually says something like this is a prediction not a report even though the title of the article sounds definitive.

      Sorry, someone probably said this, but I'm not going back over 9 pages 😃 QBs get an outsized amount of credit for wins and losses.  Bryce is the same way.   He was far from good except for a handful of plays.  That's not a recipe for success long term.  On the flip side, with the running game and defense playing so well, he's not being asked to do too much.  He doesn't look like "the guy."  I'm all for bringing in real competition with Bryce this year.
