Milliner is a Richard Sherman-esque CB. He's physical, he's angry, and he's going to annoy the piss out of the offense. Will he give up some plays, yes, so it'll be pivotal to have a really, really good safety behind him, to ensure that when his physical play lets a receiver by, that the receiver isn't going for a home run.

Really? You would really compare him to Sherman? That's a huge compliment you're giving.

To me, Milliner is probably a Jonathan Joseph/Leon Hall guy. Still good though

If we go best offensive lineman available in the first; I think we go best DT or CB in the second. Gamble is likely a cap casualty and I'd be a liar if I said I was comfortable going into next year with cornerbacks consisting of Norman, Thomas, Munnerlyn, Dockery.

We could definitely use a proven free agent acquisition in the secondary, however.

Agree. We need to go get a vet CB like a Cason, McKelvin, DRC, Sean Smith (mostly going to be franchised)

We need to address all five needy positions (OG/DT/WR/CB/FS). We have to use both FA and the Draft.

Agree 100%. We simply have too many holes at crucial positions that need to be filled to ignore them in free agency and attempt to find starters in the draft.

Even if we just hire an older stopgap at the CB or Safety positions I'd be content. Aside from that, our first three draft picks need to be instant starters. I'm confident our first and second rounders will make an impact and have my fingers crossed that we can find a gem in the 4th to at least rotate in and take over a starting job by season's end.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
