If Blackmon falls to us...

I'm 99.2% sure that there will be offers from other teams to move up and take him. We need to focus more on defense so if he's there I really think we need to give him a pass and trade for more picks. The reason I made this is because quite a few analysts have him falling, not sure why.

I'd love to see that happen. We could trade the pic with somebody who has fallen in love with Him and make out pretty well. But idk man we might look at blackmon and keep him if he falls to us. He's too talented. We would have to get a crazy good deal for that to give him up

i've seen some serious discussion about kendall wright passing him up as the best WR in the draft.

people seem to think that once/if blackmon runs a 4.8 40 or whatever people will lose interest and he'll drop on people's boards significantly. some mocks have him dropping into the teens.

depends what he runs.

Blackmon is not fast. He will run 4.5-4.6 range. Blackmon is known for very good route running ability, good hands, not afraid of contact and will go and get a ball in double coverage. He's exact copy of Boldin. He will excel as #2 WRs but will struggle as #1 WRs. He is not top #20 pick. Gettis is much better option.

I see Claiborne dropping all the way to #8. Only Vikings needs CB in top 8 but their OL is so horrible that it will not surprise me if they go with Reiff #3 overall. Purple jesus had no holes to run through and grew extremely frustrated with OL.

Blackmon will be way better than Anquan Boldin imo. There are some people who you watch them play and you can tell they just have it. I would say blackmon would be more comparable to Hakeem Nicks than Boldin. Big body big hands and enough speed. Not burner speed, but he's plenty fast to beat people deep. I still think he's a solid #1 WR.

    • I was watching the game last night (actually 330am) and they brought up that Aiden Fisher calls out the plays the other team is running.  This of course reminded me of Luke.  I haven't followed Indiana football at all but I wonder that the Huddle thinks of him as a future Panther Linebacker Aiden Fisher's pro prospects are promising, with a strong track record of performance and potential for success in the NFL. His ability to read the game and make plays with precision, combined with his leadership and physicality, make him a valuable asset to any defense. Fisher's development at Indiana and his selection as a first-team All-Big Ten linebacker in 2024 further solidify his status as a top prospect for the 2026 NFL Draft   Thoughts?
    • There is no doubt that winning on the field is the ultimate goal.  But not far behind that is winning off the field / in the board room / at the bank. Beane has been meticulous in betting on Josh Allen being able to put on the cape and taking a band of misfits to the playoffs every year.  That drives tickets, merch, concessions, TV shares, etc.  Which all put money into the owner's pockets.  The coach only controls what's on the field, and even then, it's mostly out of his hands minus time management as he doesn't throw, catch, run or kick for those 60 minutes.  My guess is Beane has made that owner a poo ton of money through contracts (or lack there of), and staying the course financially when it's easy to overspend to get over the hump.  That's why he's still there and McDermott isn't.  My guess is they will hire a non-splash candidate that commands middle of the pack money for a head coach, and Beane will once again point out to ownership how he saved them $4-$6M with this hire, and they still have Superman on their team.  New England has a first place schedule next year, and that's likely good for 2 additional losses, which would give them the same record as the Bills had this year. I knew McDermott was gone if they didn't reach the Superbowl.
    • I heard it was him showing up in NE for his ring of honor ceremony and talking about how great the organization was and the Titans ownership felt a certain way about that. They also fired/mutually parted ways with Mike Mularky after he got them to the playoffs. So making the playoffs as the Titans coach is the kiss of death. They've ran off the last 2 to achieve that lofty goal.
