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.

    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • Because this DL is completely reliant on Brown being available and being a stud. Without him we were the worst D in history. The Wharton signing last year reeked of desperation. He just isn't a great fit for us schematically and I think we panicked a little bit when we missed out on Milton Williams who would have been a great fit.
