One of the 3 will be on IR this season and they need an upgrade at kick returner. Blackshear will get competition from somewhere. It will be a RB or wr to kick return on special teams.

I agree that we need an upgrade on Blackshear, but they rolled with him last year.  I'm just saying RB is low on the needs for this team in the draft

Oh I agree. It's not a real need in the sense they must draft a RB. It is something to consider on day 3 when the focus is on special teams.

So, if we can't move back, these are the only players with first round grades, to the best of my knowledge.





Ranking them:

-Mason Graham, IDL, Michigan (prolly gone)

-Mykel Williams, edge, Georgia 

-Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina 

-Walter Nolen, IDL, Ole Miss

Ezeiruaku the edge out of BC generally has a first round rating

Brugler has him rated 22 and Jeremiah at 30

Seen some mocks in the mid teens although most in twenties

They really like Riley Leonard. Long term developmental backup kind of deal. 

Well that's good to hear. Certainly Canales can walk and chew gum at the same time ie develop more than one QB. This will make me feel better about the QB room.

Getting Dowdle and returning Blackshear makes RB need extremely low.

Most of tbise are mid to late rounders so it's not round 1 only 

Blackshear isn't an every-down back. The FO doesn't believe that he is either. He's here to return punts and kicks. And Jonathon Brooks likely ain't even playing in 2025. Who is the 5th guy...?

We have two legit guys right now to carry the load. Lord forbid that either gets hurt. This is a deep draft at RB. If they want to get a UDFA, OK...but this strategy hasn't really worked over the years from what I've been looking at. Day 3 is the answer.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
