  1. Genuinely asking, whats your plan with the extra picks? I think thats what makes it hard to evaluate a move like this... then on top of this, youre telegraphing your plan to move up multiple times, bc what the heck is a team like ours going to do with 11 draft picks. Im not against it, 3 picks in 2nd round would be awesome, 5 in the top 100. Concentrating your picks in the sweet spot of this draft. If it were to happen id take the highest upside WR on the outside.... then some combo of DT/DE with the next two. Im intrigued, just seems hard to generate a plan that justifies it
  2. I like the prospect but is he a good fit next to Oliver? Fairly undersized at 295. Im kinda in the boat of BPA between DT/DE with our earlier 2nd rder, open to the right WR too, as I think those are going to be where are biggest difference makers will come from
  3. Seems like a he could grow into playing at the Z, but his ability to get off press could limit him this season into a slot role. Depends where in the draft you think you can scoop him. 2nd feels like a major reach no? We have no 3rd rounder currently, and next pick is the 13th pick in the 4th. Seems like a name that shot up boards lately, and probably gone by then in 4th
  4. Pick 24 of 2nd Rd.... we think he could be there? Def my crush of the day. Also interested in Burden ii (iii?). Cant see him reaching us at that spot though... maybe we go up a few spots if he starts sliding.... but then I think we move back a bit at our next 2nd rd pick to obtain capital to try and get back into 3rd round
  5. Hilarious was a few seconds before the pick talking about a block of the year where he got up the field and broke a scapula and laughing lol OL rule, love Dion
  6. Nah, they're saying that cause he's got that dawg in him. Reminds me of Josh. I certainly wouldn't say he's the next Josh. Does he have similar traits and physical stature, for sure
  7. Who you eyeballing at this point? Crazy to think another CB might not go until late 20s-30s. Johnson off your 1st rd board?
  8. Why is Will Johnson slipping? Injury ???
  9. Man I just want to find our own Chris Jones. What we all hoped Oliver would turn into siiiighhhhhhh. Josh would have 2 rings by now with him on our team IMO... but youre right dont force it. Harmon atleast bats down a lot of passes doesnt he?
  10. Alfred Collins fall into that 2-down bucket, possibly 2.5-down, that Beane was talking about yesterday?
  11. Beautiful. As a Bills fan it's always cool to hear behind the scenes info. As a football fan: it's refreshing to hear any GM/Coach not treat every behind the scenes action, as a coldwar trade /strategy secret. Sure don't give away anything important but dang, this kinda thing is so cool to hear, and definitely not a secret among locker rooms. Kudos and All Hail Beane (who does a ton of this on McAfee show)!!
  12. Sign me up if the GM's arent smoking crack while making their picks. im having a hard time seeing a true 1st rd grade falling to us at #30, in a weak draft. Take the slightly damaged, but elite ceiling guy. With Tre and Dane here, we can spare the time for him to finish recovering and get up to speed in our system. Maybe he can win out the position and feel 100% by late season/playoff time. at minimum for this season: he can be high end depth if injuries pop up... and expect a huge 2026 out of him. im not taking a lower ceiling guy, because he'll be avail 4-8 weeks earlier. we dont have regular season problems, so we can afford to take a dude like this. His ACL Surgery was October 2024 Even if were talking about him having a Tre White ACL recovery (worst case scenario)- im taking the risk on higher ceiling and waiting on him to bounce back 2026. But Tre's recovery was not a standard recovery, theses surgeries get better and better every year, and recovering at 23 vs 27, is different.
  13. 100% i can't remember who mods are to tag anymore
  14. if a nasty arse guard falls at BPA, then im down for doubling down on a strength and getting younger on the OL. admit its not ideal, but i wouldnt shy from it either Brave browser FTW This pick would intrigue the hell outta me. Look what Coach did with Benford in 6th (5th? 7th?) round. Imagine him grabbing the #1 Corner prospect on the discount shelf @ #30 due to injury? Absolute physical freak. We could afford to bring him along during the season too. Hed be tempting AF if hes sitting there
  15. Yes thank you @SDS for allowing this. Honest to God id love more of this type of thing. I've spent time on this site *daily* for 15+ years.... while I hate most of you (and myself) after a loss, I sincerely love this board Guilty pleasure. I even use it after I just pee. Take that manscape!!!
  16. This is faux-king awesome. Will make me more productive at work, so I can listen instead of trying to read 30pg mock threads lol Real men don't wipe
  17. When you look at it like that, its hard to blame RB's. anybody think its possible during NFLPA Bargain Agreement, that they modify (shorten) default contract length of RB's. It's def unfair to them. Even if a GM wants to do a deal, hes kind of hampered by the rest of the RB market, where giving a fair contract is a liability when theres cheaper labor out there. If 32 teams are operating under a - 4yr 1st round, 3 years yr rounds after - it might be easier for a GM to justify retaining his pick. More teams will have to do it, or theyll be spending more draft picks to get that cheap labor. Would change the supply/demand for all teams, while allowing RB's to get 2nd contracts before theyre out of the league. I think they should do it, but dunno when next Bargain Agreement is
  18. Still a good time for trades, i bet theres a ton of discussion. rare time where GM's can meet face to face, and everybody is already in wheel and deal mode. even if nothing materializes, there are likely a lot of seeds planted, plus a chance for a GM to get some sense of a players worth in a trade. guarantee he's got and will get calls. GMs jobs are to complete due diligence. A casual on the side chat with another GM could lead to an in season trade during TC, or regular season. could even be a tag and trade next season bottom line: draft is important to GM's for multiple reasons. Id bet a ton of trade origins can be traced back to draft week discussions
  19. Yep, happened to a Bronco few years ago. OL maybe? I dont think anybody has ever accused Cook of being a Nasa engineer Anyways, not a big deal to me, fairly expected. A way to holdout without holding out of TC. Obv doesnt mean he wont holdout from TC, but id have been surprised if he showed to these
  20. Do we think hes off several teams boards completely? Or just off several boards for 1st round?
  21. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Nic-Caraway-DE-Purdue Weird, which one is his actual weight? He looks 285... but conflicting info, almost 30lbs difference.... did he slim down for combine. Either way interesting prospect. Also wondering why his production dropped this year. Def not the be-all end-all, but notable
  22. Great for resumes! Like another poster pointed out, knowing how to use it is the key. tell it "make me a resume" and its gunna turn out like crap..... upload your current resume and a copy of the job your applying for and ask it to help maximize your resume for the job, then youre cooking with gas. have it identify keywords you need. ask it what the top candidates in the top of their career have in common, how you can relate what skills you have to those skills. etc etc etc ive heard people say its lazy. it actually takes me less time to update my resume manually, but its going to be far from optimized. take the time to figure out what matters and the best way to frame yourself, and break your resume down line by line. took me a tooooon of time, but i nailed a job id been gunning for off and on for years with this method..... then once you learn something like that. learn how to use it in similar ways for other important tasks. eventually youll get a real eye for seeing missed opportunities & potential uses
  23. How is the scheme fit on Revel? Were not a press-heavy team, but some staffing changes might indicate we are overhauling. Seems like a Beane type pick. Absolute physical freak. 6'3 corner? 4.4 forty per DraftBuzz. Strong character guy, was working overnight shifts to even get in a position to play ball. Injury concerning, but hes young enough to hopefully bounce back well... even if he lost a step, that kinda puts him at average speed, while he recovers. Sounds tip-top hard worker, so im sure hes rehabbed hard af. those surgeries are getting better every year.
  24. Ohhhhhhhhhh i like this a bunch!! If theyre going to force feed us an extra game, they better at least dress it up a bit
