Star,Luke or Hankins?

I think this years first pick is pretty straight forward unless we win a couple more games.I would like either Star or Luke if it is up to me.The Oakland game may decide who gets Star with both teams needs help at DT. 2nd round has a few more options.It appears at wr we could only get a good number 2 so I am not really sure if that is logical. Barret Jones OG,OT,C would be a great pick if he is there or Elam if he should drop a few spots.Other than that it may be the best cb availible

It depends on what we do with Gross, and what we do with the Edwards'.

If we decide to cut Gross, the pick will be Joeckel.

If we keep Gross, and either Dwan leaves in free agency, or Ron is cut due to age/injury, we will take either star or Hankins depending on that situation.

If Dwan leaves, we need Star. If Ron leaves, we need Hankins.

I think Dwan is under contract for another season.

Would take Luke hands down.

You have your young franchise QB....now slide in your stud LT to protect him for the next decade.

You saw how effective Cam is when he gets some time in the pocket.

Luke at LT....Amini at LG (kid is getting better and better)....Kalil in the middle....? at RG....Gross (after he restructures) at RT.

Damn fine OL.

I rather have a Vet who has experience blocking for Cam than a rookie. Tell me how many rookie OL made immediate impact. We saw Amini struggle this year. I don't want another rookie OL having to go through a learning developing process blocking for Cam.

    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
