id like to get QB out of the way. trade the 4th. focus on a pass rusher and WR. for some reason i dont want any other team to have tate

It'd be tremendous to have Tate...but I think it'd only work well if Jarrett shows up this season. We need some sort of big body guy who can shield out corners on slants and such to complement the smaller fellows.

Schefter blows.. he was good until he and Mort started reporting fake news...

and what fake news would that be? no one is right 100% of the time. Adam gets it first 90% of the time, and gets it right 95. there is no NFL insider that has him beat. and if someone does, you tell me who he is

Also, just because he reports stuff and it doesn't come true doesn't mean it was wrong because things are constantly changing....maybe deals fall through. Also, teams I am sure feed him information in order to sway things to happen or draw interest from other teams in a certain direction. ESPN has anonited him "the insider" and teams know that and that is who they probably leak things to if they want something to go public. He does his job well IMO.

and yeah, I'm sure teams feed them poo.. what bothers me isn't when he says something is in the works.. it's the classic ESPN ratings grab they have him and Mort do when they speculate on what could happen and pretend that it's inside info...

Schefter announced picks, sometimes minutes, before Goodell did...

I don't care what anyone thinks about him, that says a lot about his standing among NFL teams...

I'll trust anything he says over anyone else... If something is wrong, it is because deals fell through...

that happened on nearly every pick.. they have video of the guy on the phone talking to the team..lol

Schefter isn't just amazing.. the entire ESPN and NFL networks were on top of their game.. lol

but I see your point.. the guy was let in on a pick because the team that was up had 10 minutes to themselves to let the world know- if they wanted- who they were going to pick..

the draft isn't really my dig on Schefter.. that doesn't help all the times I've heard him speculate on something but have no sources.. only an educated guess that is postured as inside info. and it's not just him.. Mort included.. It's the ESPN way.. :)

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      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
