True true, but one man's trash is another's gold. If there's a surprise or micro slide, some GM is going to be chomping at the bit to exploit their newfound opportunity. Moreover, somewhere within their minds will be Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix. Someone's gonna call Dan, but will what they're offering get him to move? That will be the question. 

I would say it is far less likely than last year for some of the reasons stated.

I don't want a haul, I just want some more top 90 picks.

Honestly, I don't think we're in the right draft position to get a haul, but you never know...

To be honest, I think we'd be remiss to pass up on a Tyler Warren, provided that Carter and Graham are off the board (and maybe McMillan also who, not surprisingly in retrospect, didn't participate).

I don't really view Warren as an elite TE and this class is pretty loaded at that position, so I would be against taking him at 8.

The Titans are willing to trade the 1st pick so I'd say there's no guarantee a qb goes in the top 10.

I dont see many trades this draft and I certainly dont see any rational scenario that someone wants to move up to 8.  I mean for who?  Maybe a qb drops but if that was the case someone would move ahead of us once ward or sanders fell from top 3.  I just dont see it.   Maybe someone falls in love with Tet but again why would they move to 8 and how far back are you willing to fall.  And I dont think teams are looking at tet like some julio jones clone.

There's no clear cut top 10. There's players being way overhyped like Ward, Sanders and Warren for example. This a bad year to have a top 10 pick. The best players are going to be taken in the bottom of the 1st mark my words.

Warren has the potential to be a beast. I don't see what you're not seeing. I've watched him catch, get YAC, hands-catch, run-block angrily, and knows how to get open in the he zone. He's the most legit inline TE that's come out for a while. I think that he has a high floor and a much higher ceiling. If things fall right, he's a top 10 TE from the get.

While that is nice in theory, I think most teams will want to do the same. So the problem becomes that nobody wants to trade up and if they do, it's a buyer's market so they won't offer close to value. I highly doubt we are trading back unless some team in the Early - mid 10s sends us a really good offer

Some one may want to trade up to take the 3rd qb ahead of the saints. I could see the seahawks having some interest

Yeah, that's sort of the thing with evaluations. Not all of them disagree. 

I like Warren as a prospect, but under no circumstances would I ever take him in the top 10.

The history of that with TE's is abhorrent.

We need almost any trade back. (Even in a slight loss) All of our guys will be gone. Graham, Carter, Hunter. It's a crap shoot after that, Id say Pierce but he's an ahole. Green, but that's probably the color of his member. Walker, T rex that can't workout. Tet hides cause he's slow. Stewart, 1 sack per year. If we can't trade back uggh! At that point I'd take either of these 4. And forget your Kiper boards Give me Walter Nolan (DT), Nick Emanwari?(safety from S.C.), Tyler Warren (TE) or Matthew Golden (WR) Mykel Williams ehh. I give up. It's just us, every pick above us is valuable. We fall into the next 20 guys. It only hurts a lot. Mommy!

      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

      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!
