Anyone else remember JR saying we weren't trading down even before we knew who was at #1?

He said that when Andrew Luck was expected the be in this years draft. Since he opted out, all bets are off.

Lol at everyone thinking everything ever said about the draft was about Andrew Luck and since he decided to go back tp school "are bets are off". Since speculation is the word of the month, aren't you just speculating that is what he was doing? And if all he was really worried about was Andrew Luck wouldn't we have put a stronger effort together to get Jim Harbaugh here??

you honestly believe otherwise? the best quarterback prospect in the past decade decides to return to college and you expect GM's draft boards/plans to stay the same?

Luck leaving changed EVERYTHING. You don't have to be a Cam hater to realize that.

And so were having a big draft party for a trade down?

A draft party is something the PR people set up, not the football people.

If Hurney gets a great offer to trade down, he's not gonna tell the guy "sorry, I would have taken it but we're having a draft party so I can't".

Nevermind the fact that Jerry basically said in that conference that Luck would be our pick if he did come out...

But sure, keep believing it didn't change anything when the guy we said we were going to pick decided to stay in school...

Yall really dont draft a QB because yall think that we got a good chance to get one next year. Not happening

No. I don't draft a QB because I don't think the ones available are worth the #1 pick, but there are players at other positions who are (or who are at least closer to it).

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
