Good thing is that only Watson is gone. Seems like there is a chance to get a WR

Efron is way better. He hit that game winning shot and crushed the musical in the same day.

Dane Jackson fans lol. C’mon guys.

Im more annoyed that Pitre is gone. Don’t care about the running backs.

Falcons comin for Willis?

I’m thinking receiver or safety. Feeling Jalen Pitre.

Matt waletzko still around

It was super awkward

Like zero crowd reaction to that cheesy stuff

Just wanted to mention that Josh Jacobs, as good as he is, did not get that 5th year option picked up because it just doesn’t make sense.

I think they come away with Anderson or Brandon Smith somewhere in the draft. I like both. I like Chenal too. But Andersen and Smith fit the prototype. I love Smith. I get why a lot of people don't. D'Marco Jackson seems like their type as well.

I think people may be disappointed when we take a DL or the RT from UCLA. I do hope that we try to work for some explosive offensive weapons. I think the first few picks we will see some QB's go, and people who we thought were going to go in the first. I some Abs go, talent will drop to us.

I agree. Some agents also makes sure that the guys get ubers and keep clean. But his dad and uncle have been there done that, so Elam gets to keep that 20% or whatever it us.

They target people and they move around the draft board to get people they want. Also remember that with all the millions of comp picks we will see today at the end of these rounds, their 4th round pick is really a mid 5th.

Agreed. Brown is going to excel there and Murray can hit the deep ball. They are an interesting team to watch.

The Cowboys connection is that Abram Elam played for them. They had him twice in his career and he is Bill Parcells guy. On wikipedia it says that Jerry Jones let him use the team's private plane to get to his father's funeral. So maybe they didn't want Kaiir, but there is a strong connection there with the Cowboys as Jerry has a relationship with dad. If Beane had any inkling they would take him, or anyone would trade up to grab him, then the trade is a no brainer. I was thinking a mini trade up for a guy they were targeting, but I was not thinking ElAm. I think there was someone on here saying that there was ZERO chance the Bills would trade up. I wonder where that guy is today.

I was his looking at his dad's Abram Elam's, who was a Bill Parcells guy, wikipedia and this is crazy and sad: "Since 1987, three of Elam's siblings were shot to death. His older brother, Donald Runner, was fatally shot in 1987. His sister Christina, was killed in 1999. On May 9, 2008, his older brother Donald Elam was fatally shot; at age 14, Donald was once the youngest person ever indicted for murder in Palm Beach County, though he was later acquitted. On December 1, 2011, Abram's father died, and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones let Abram use his private plane to go to Florida to be with his family. His younger brother, Matt Elam played in the NFL for the Baltimore Ravens. His son, Kaiir Elam, played defensive back for the University of Florida and was selected by the Buffalo Bills in the first round (23rd overall) of the 2022 NFL Draft." Matt Elam also got in some trouble with the law. Not saying anything about Kaiir, but he is coming from a pretty complicated situation. From everything that people are saying he seems like a tremendous fit for the culture here.

I think he is angling to become the media DB guru.

I live in NY in the Jets/Giants area and these dudes are funny. I mean of course the Jests are going to have a good draft on paper. They had three first round picks. You better have a good one. Too bad Wilson is terrible.

Just call em a bunch of malakas and they will understand lol!

His 2020 draft was terrible. 2021 doesn't look amazing either, though Vera-Tucker is excellent. Moore is interesting. They love their Hyperbole. It will be interesting to see how it plays out when Wilson's rookie contract is up. I mean that is really what it is all about. I think he is terrible, but if he pans out they will be in good shape in a few years. The crazy thing is, when they have to pay him in year 5-6, they will have to pay maybe Becton, Vera Tucker and will have to decide if they want to pick up fifth year options on Gardner, G. Wilson, and Johnson. Again first world problems down the line, and Douglas may be fired by then, but sometimes having too many first round picks could backfire in the long run. Douglas did a nice job, but not sure he really is seeing the big picture in roster construction, and that is why Beane is the man.

@GunnerBill Any chance you have a best available list for tonight?

They also took Jonathan Meeks instead of Micah Hyde. But yeah they can get back into the 4th with no issue at all if they want to. The have t make sure they hit in rounds 2 and 3. Personally, I would trade more picks in this draft to get multiple twos or threes tonight.

Agreed. I have some level of pride as a Greek American here, and now I have to hate the dude. At least I still have Giannis.

I am thinking receiver if anyone is left of the Watson/Pickens/Moore/Pierce group. I could see McBride or Jelani Woods. Could be Hall/Walker. Totally fine with Hall in round 2. Was not okay in round 1. My guess? Phidarian Mathis, Travis Jones or Damarvin Leal. I like Jalen Pitre.
