Keon Coleman? No thanks, maybe rd 2-3

all to save 1.4M and receive a 5th rd pick for a backup

Interesting. Incoming Jackson Powers-Johnson!! 🤣

Well, it happened. no restructure. No paycut. He was cut and saved 4.66M, which was the only move to make involving Hines. An ultra speed back coming off what was said to be a possible career threatening injury. He’ll be back for close to the minimum and might make the team. Cutting him and was necessary. Glad that Beane didn’t make him any ridiculous promises as was speculated.

Yeah I hear ya- it’ll help his production and the team when he can make plays like that….but it may also lead to injury. I’m not sure that physical style will translate very well to the nfl unless he can add substantial weight/strength

That’s the biggest problem I have with him tbh

Solid comp. I thought flowers was slightly better but I’m pulling hairs there. While Worthy isn’t ideal for me as I’m just not a fan of 165lb ball carriers, he’s electric and I’d look forward to him playing with 17.

Love Tip Reiman in rd 7. That would make me very happy. if we took Blake Corum in rd 3 I’d puke 💯

I think it’s funny how the combine has had such a negative effect on how this board views Troy Franklin. prior to the draft, 90% of the board had Franklin as a top 5 WR in this class. Now he’s WR8-10. Barely anyone wanted Worthy over Franklin. Now, almost everyone does. Same with Mitchell. it was a poor combine for the kid, no doubt. But I think people are putting to much emphasis on the underwear Olympics rather than tape. Prior to the combine, I wanted Franklin, Mitchell or Legette. Those are still the guys I want most. Never thought thomas would make it out of the top 20.

There may never be another Tyreek

Thank goodness!!

Who’s yours?

Yes…..that’s what the term “scoring defense” means. Point given up. 🤦🏻‍♂️ there’s so much oddity in this poast that i’ll just move on. You clearly have no clue what you’re talking about.

Not sure wth you’re talking about. I’m talking about the 3 teams that held their opponents to the least amount of points…..that’s scoring defense. That’s what matters. Not whatever ridiculous stats you’re talking about. Umpteen is equal to what? 5 years? Super Bowl score 13-3 in 2019. KC won a SB with a WR2 playing WR1 along with a bunch of WR5’s. A healthy balance of O and D is needed. Our roster had that. Too bad our defense got broken and we were without our WR2. Sherfields drops may have been caught had he have been there

This. Premium position. I think our only hope of a guy like Thomas slipping to us is that this draft is loaded with 1st rd OT prospects. The more OTs that go, the better. Along with your 6 team list, I’d consider Dallas and Houston as strong suitors for WRs.

I think it’ll cost us our 3rd or even 2nd. I think he’s top 20

I’m pretty sure it’s correct….. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2023/opp.htm who’s denying anything…..please don’t put words in my mouth. I never commented on that once. You said “defense is not the way” when it’s a fact that it’s a big part of being a championship contender. It’s not a one or the other. It’s a both. You need both. yes, we’ve botched some picks. We’ve also suffered several massive injuries. If we had stayed healthy, your narrative may have been different. But unfortunately our huge defensive investments have gotten hurt. Miller, big bucks. Tre, big bucks. Milano, big bucks. Hyde, big bucks for a S. Daquan, pretty big bucks for a 1T. The way the roster was built was championship caliber. It was good enough to win a SB minus key injuries.

Yet the consensus top 3 teams last year had the 3 best scoring defenses in the league. in the playoffs, KC held their opponents 7, 24, 17 and 22. The first 3 games were against the 3 highest scoring teams in the AFC. The last, they held the 2nd highest scoring team in the nfc to 22. Meanwhile, KC never scored more than 27. Teams with bad defenses don’t win Super Bowl. Teams with an elite QBs and good defenses are always in the mix. The key is to find a healthy balance and make plays when you’re in the playoffs. We could have won the Super Bowl even while down several key players. We just didn’t execute when we needed to.

I’d be happy with him late day 3 but I’d prefer Dillon Johnson. Love the way he runs.

Agreed. Tykee any round on day 3 would be a great selection. I’ll be kinda pissed if we draft a S on day 2. Furious if we draft one on the first day.

I figured his combine would flood the board with Maybin comparisons. i could see him being the pick. I prefer WR but if the guys we view as 1st rd talents are gone, it makes sense

Kris Jenkins in rd 2 would be amazing

Yeah he’s the epitome of a jag imo. Vet minimum as a 4th RB type He’s the reality po po. Dashing the hopes and dreams of all those that wish for things that are unlikely or unrealistic. 8 paragraphs at a time

I think he’s my ideal pick in rd 2 other than Polk.
