I’m still taking Graham if he’s there.

How many DT’s do we need? We already have D Brown, Wharton, Bobby Brown, A Robinson, Tuttle, Ray all under contract. That would be a poor allocation of resources with how many other holes we have. That’s a lot of $$ on the sideline watching.

Mine has never changed, T-Mac no matter what.

I also just don't get the love affair with Walker, especially at 8.

He's more MLB than Edge right now and he's no Kuechly.  He's not going to make an immediate significant pass rush improvement in year 1, if he's going to turn into an elite edge rusher, it's going to take him a few years to bulk up and just play more (he basically only has 1 year of playing time in college).

He's a low floor, high ceiling, raw prospect, which I'm not against taking in general, but I'd like them to have more of a true position, or at least, be more of an Edge than a MLB, not the other way around.

Wharton DT: ranked in lower half of league in run d; 6.5 sacks last year.

Jackson CB: good pairing w/ JC Horn.

Moehrin S: second on team w/ 104 tackles.

Jones LB: 7 sacks last year with only one start so he can get to the qb.

Brown DT: will fit the D nicely as a nose that can eat up blocks and stop the run.

Tremble: hoping he continues to improve as a pass catcher.

Corbett: bring back the oline that helped Bryce.

Man we opened up our options in this draft. Obviously still need a lot of help but it doesn't feel quite as desperate. I might have to change my opinion on Tet.  Still wouldn't mind a trade back scenario.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
