Well he only got one last year, a 5th rounder in CSW. Its a shame because there was so much quality talent around the XL and Brooks picks. Maybe he learned

Yeah that’s why I mentioned the PFF strategy. This year was the first year we used it. 
 

I haven’t gone to confirm it but I imagine if we used a data approach in 2024 XL would be in a “off the board” bucket. XL was more of a leftover RAS king approach.

I'd be fine with trading Prince.

I think he's a good player with great upside, but it would save me from having to learn how to say his last name.

Very high potential especially Scourton. His versatility is looking more than previously shown. I think he should be a starter

 Prince looks like a pass rush specialist right now. But that's okay, he will develop.

oo mon me ellen.  His brother Princewill just had a nice hit on the qb.

Imagine having McConkey to go with Tet.

Under any normal evaluation any team that finds 2 blue chip (hopefully)  players with their first 2 picks and turns a 3rd rounder in to a solid contributor… that would be considered a VERY solid draft. Thus far, things are looking up but we shall see.

The number of starters doesn’t matter. We’ve had a bunch of rookie starters every year for a while now because we have awful talent and depth.

What we need is to get more above average starters not Wallace, Sanders, Young, and XL. All started 8 or more of their rookie year games. Mingo started 14 games his rookie year. TMJ started 9 games.

We are going to continue to be crap until we draft multiple “good” starters, not just bodies who start as rookies because we aren’t a talented team yet. Trouble is that we seem to only get above average starters from top 10 picks.

I love how you can write players off after a season. Not everyone comes out of the blocks ready to dominate the NFL.

Sanders and Wallace have shown improvement (and Sanders wasn't bad at all last year). Legette... yeah he might have mentally checked out, but there's talent there. Even Wade-Smith hasn't embarrassed himself when called upon (3 turnovers so far in his career).

They're both very, very young. 

Scorton, for example, needs to have a plan when his bullrush is anchored down against. He has a spin move, but he needs more. He needs to watch tape of Parsons - learn how a shorter, stocky pass rusher win in the NFL.

And every single one of those guys will not be above average starters. Their picks filled depth holes but they don’t make us better than other teams. I assume you are watching today’s game and it’s pretty obvious we aren’t a good team. None of the guys you mentioned are impact guys. Since 2020, we have maybe 3 impact guys in Brown, Horn and TMac (early but he’s flashed). The rest of our draft picks are “can start on the Panthers but easily replaced or not good enough to be on decent rosters/in the NFL at all.
