We can't afford to pick DE high to only play 2 downs this year...unless they feel it's a slam dunk he'll be a 3 down player next year.

I hope they get a deal done....but Beane has to know now what's likely to happen so he can decide what to do should a draft day opportunity come up. That means talking to coaches and players and finding out where his head's truly at. Does he hate living here? Wanna play close to home and family? Is he unreasonable with expectations? What do his team mates think of him? Plus Beane knows him and the agent personally. I'm sure he's done dug up all the dirt.

Detroit may also be looking for DT.

Good, hopefully he goes before we proceed with the rest of that crappy draft.

Riley Leonard is the Gen Z? Jimmy Klausen. sp? 170 maybe Caldwell? or at least a good spot for David Walker.

I would not be surprised if Beanes got a couple of backs in mind. If Cook looks to hold out even to the start of camp, draft the best RB you can, trade Cook for a 2026 2nd during the draft and use our own 2026 2nd to get us at least a mid 3rd. Our later picks will serve us better then.

Does GB speak American? WOT? lol

As a rule I would say draft all SEC. and UB

Beane drafts for need every year. This year we need DT and Corner. He has enough bodies at Corner so I bet we're going DT first. And I think it's the only position he'll trade up for. If we have to jump Wash. and/ or Detroit so be it. We also can't sit and hope our pick gets past KC and Philly. Corner can wait a sec.

Scournton's ok at 30 so long as all the other DTs are gone. We do need a 2 down end behind Bosa, but if Philly gets Nolan I will fall farther off the wagon.

I think they picked Kincaid because it was talked about all off season Brady wanting to run 12 personnel.

Oh yeah, I remember that thread.

There's a rumor that 2025 has some character issues and may slide as far as 2026.

wow I could live with this.

I was just saying since NFL.com comped him to JP , if we're gonna carry 5 maybe...whatever, I think this guy with the right system and culture will be a force on some interior Dline and a later 3rd would be a good pick for us especially if we don't double dip early. IDK, watched the highlights on NFL.com and the guy could reach both ends of the line from the middle. lol

Going off 2023. 55 tkls 12.5 tfls 7.5 sacks 2 pbu 2nd team all SEC. Projected 3rd. NFL comp. Jordan Phillips. 6'7 331 34 1/4 arms. Detroit kid so cold shouldn't be a thing. Sign JP til at least week 7 to whip him up. Don't need him to play 100% of snaps.

I agree and as another poster above noted TJ's play last year, Starks would be great to spell him and/or play dime. Best I can hope for given McDs speed, Maybe he can not be beat out of a starting role.

Give me Nolan and if we get a late late 3rd Deon Walker. Cut Jones and sign JT who can mentor Walker...since that's who his nfl comp is. Decide on Ogun later. Then we can go edge then Porter or either way.

Watson?

34 I'm praying for Nolen with the 1st pick. 56 Landon Jackson 62 Darien Porter No way am I taking a player with injury history this early. I'll take Tariq Woolen 2.0 65 Xavier Watts 132 Donte Thornton 169 Frazier would be great pick here. 170 Ty Robinson

I really like this but would hope at 132 C.j. West or Caldwell

I'd be fine with this if 56 was Williams or Collins. Really impressed with Walker and Ivey is an immediate 2 down starter behind Bosa that eliminates the need for a Smoot re-signing and would also be an animal sliding inside.

I'm willing to bet Ty Robinson will be one of the Bills picks at some point.

Then Collins or Jackson and Porter.

I think maybe it does. They at least wanna let everybody know they're not backing themselves into a corner back. FWIW. I don't care about the "top tier of injured, no production guys. To me there's really no difference or little from them to Strong, Parrish, Bryant etc. I want Porter no matter what because of that. We can find just as good as those in the "top tier" later.
