Jayron Hosley is a boss

Rhodes is pretty damn good too forgot about him.

Damn there's a crop to choose from.

It makes me even more interested in grabbing the likes of Reiff, Upshaw, Brockers or Poe in the first.

(edit to add)

I have actually seen Hosley in 1st rounds here and there...damn so beyond Dre, we've got:

Jenkins

Dennard

Gilmore

Rhodes

Minnifield

Hosley

Hayward

Trumaine Johnson

Steed

good lord...and I personally think they are all legit late 1-3rd talent

Hosley and Minnifield and Gilmore should all be the top half of the 2nd round. Hayward is a 4th round pick now. Dennard played himself out of the 1st round as well.. might convert to safety in the NFL.

Haywards speed & quickness issues will be a concern (so maybe I'll take him off the list) and I do agree Dennard didn't look that great...but we're talking one day and there's a crazy amount of time left to still impress. A lack of quickness that leads to forcing more contact is possibly a killer for Hayward though.

I do pretty much agree there's no way we go Vandy CB at pick 2

I agree with you 100%.

I was originally all for definitely taking a CB with the 8/9 pick.....god knows we need a #2. However, given the talent that is there at CB in this draft (1st round talent in most drafts will still be there in the 2nd), I am all for taking a DT/DE or OT in the 1st and then a CB in the 2nd.

Will make the draft very interesting.

Yea, a little bias on my part as well since I went to VT too, but Hosley is definitely a top 5 corner in this draft and could be there at pick 40 -- his stock dropped bc he was hurt a bit this year after a stud Sophomore season.

I do not think this is bias. If you watched him play every game and want him, then I am sold. Ask a Tarheel fan about Coples--most say NO!!

That's why I'm pro D lineman in the first. CBs are abundant and we have a 2nd. :)

The DT and CB pools are pretty deep. The difference being there are two elite CBs in this draft and 0 elite DTs (unless you count Brockers).

Take Jenkins then pick up one of the DTs that drops in the 2nd round. Instantly improve your D.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
