2025 NFL Draft - Round 1 Discussion

Yeah, I definitely read more than one article that stated Warren was not a slam dunk as the top TE. He was an "eye of the beholder" guy. Doesn't mean he isn't a great prospect but the Brock Bowers comps seemed very suspect.

Brock Bowers was probably the most talented TE drafted this century. No tight end should be getting compared to him.

Warren is like a Swiss army knife that can play te and fb. He has a lot of red flag things he needs to work on for me though to be a great TE in the NFL though - something that should never be picked at #8

His board isn’t a guess of where guys get drafted though.   He knew Cam Ward was pick 1 but didn’t view as the best football player (which he isn’t).  So he doesn’t rank 1.  Teams don’t draft BPA.  They draft need, bias, systems, all sorts of stuff.  

I was looking at his last mock draft.  It was a guess of where guys will get drafted.  

Of course, he probably has 50 of them, like most of these analyst do.  And most of them are wrong and don't really know who will end up the better player.  We have Macmillan, just have to see how it works out.  

I was listening to some guy on the radio who said we should have taken golden because he is faster.  Sometimes I think speed gets overrated just a bit. Shiftiness and agility might be more important than running a 4.45 vs running a 4.3.

Every person the Huddle wanted us to pick is still sitting on the board. Would be wild if we make off with a Jihaad Campbell or someone in the 2nd

There's going to be plenty of pass rushers to choose from in R2. I do expect them to trade up for one though in R2 if there's a run on pass rushers early in the round.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
