Anyone who watched Jalen Carter sack Matthew Stafford in the NFC championship game knows exactly why we drafted the way we did.

I can’t give it a grade because I don’t have enough information. I will say it is exactly what I wanted near the end of the season; drafting all defense. there were a lot of corners on the board when they drafted Hairston, I.e. they got a corner high on their board. They moved up/targeted sanders, I.e. got a guy high on their board. The reaction in the room for Jackson, the pre-draft visits etc., suggests they, again, got a guy high on their board. In rd 4 they moved up, targeting walker, suggesting a guy high on their board. thats 4 guys they chose. Couple that with the free agent signings and I’d say they overhauled the defense about as well as one could in that time frame. For better or worse they got their guys, they own this, it’s on beane/mcdermott. No excuses. Hairston and Jackson should have solid careers on paper. Player they drafted with most upside is sanders. has all the tools just needs to want it and get lucky avoiding injuries. Sky is the limit for him imo. Hancock might be a sneaky excellent pick, immediate special teamer and potential future starter(?) at safety(?). Just seems like a good utility athlete to have on the team.

Need that Alabama punter

I hope we trade for a next year 4

You expect beane to draft the player everyone wants?

Hard knocks Cleveland II

Guessing jones is dead cap at this point

I think, of the 3, sanders has the highest ceiling. If he has the right mindset (desire/work ethic) and avoids injuries he could be a hall of fame type. The other two seem to have some limitations where they might have higher floors but lower ceilings. All three look to be immediate contributors with something rare going for them.

This guy has a chance to be a chris jones type. He’s tall and fast. As a professional, he will have the training staff and opportunity to become a game wrecker. hopefully he wants that and works hard towards it. I wouldn’t be shocked if he has a better career than Oliver, low bar to be more valuable when factoring pay. I believe his larger frame/speed combo gives him a higher ceiling.

Wouldn’t mind trading pick(s) for picks next year. Could use a punter and special team players (S/LB).

It’s higher than if he had been drafted

This is just evidence that he’s not smart

I hope teams are not drafting sanders out of spite. Be petty, it’s fun.

No, we used two picks to select one player. Beane up to his wizardry again 🪄

We have 10 picks this draft.

Bad news for shaq Lawson

Dude looks long and strong to me.

I’m ready to trade Oliver, this guy seems like a beast.

I can’t believe the bills used next year’s second round pick to do that (guy who’s confused by something thats easily understandable)

You’re going to hate wide receivers

We wanted Abdul Carter also

This seems reasonable

Can he return kicks or does he wrestle?

Hopefully the giants want to trade up for dart

You are sooo banned
