I need some opinions on this I am not sure how to feel on one side he is only 26 and pretty well regarded. On the other hand he’s injury prone and his highest sack total was 8.5 and that was his rookie year.

I don’t follow the eagles much. This guy an edge rusher lb or a typical lb. Seems like a big dude making a lot of money to not be getting after the QB so I’ll assume edge

Edge rusher. Talented, but has an extensive injury history. Doesn't have a lot of sacks, but the underlying numbers--pressures, hits, etc.--are really good. If he's healthy, he's good, but it's a big number no matter what.

and just like that, carolinas free agency is over

No there will be more much more. Morgan still has a lot of room, they just haven’t announced restructures/releases yet and Phillips contract is probably back heavy.

Good lord. 30 million per and not to a QB. I guess tme for me to brush up on some video. 

Just concentrate on the guaranteed number. But, you're right, that's a lot.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
