I started the thread and wondered how long it would take until I saw the word "motor". 8 posts.

There goes Will Johnson. If the rumors of a degenerative knee were real, that seems high. If it isn't, that's really low.

56, 62, and 109 = 212 pts. 41, 72, and 240 = 210 pts. So a fairly even trade. It's ever so slightly titlted to the Bears. https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp

We must have given up multiple Day 3's as 56 and 109 shouldn't get us that high.

We're on the clock! Donovan?!

Haha Slough over Sanders.

The highest 56 and 109 (our next highest pick that isn't 62) is going to get us is 46. So I wouldn't expect a move up before then, if at all.

Amos won't be there when we pick and Johnson is off of a lot of Draft boards for a degenerative knee.

Yeah, I was pretty upset when we passed him. I was under the assumption he was coming off an injury that would still have him ready to play by Week 1. But then it came out his injury isn't the main issue - it's that he has a degenerative knee issue. And if that's the case, I totally understand passing on him.

Considering Khalil Shakir runs 4.43 and Curtis Samuel ran a 4.31 (probably has declined a bit due to age, but probably still in the range of 4.41) and the feeling is we don't have someone that's going to win with speed - I don't think 4.41 really meets the mark of a "Speed WR". Again, not slow. But not exactly a speed demon.

You're essentially straight up trading James Cook for Jaydon Blue. Maybe not even a straight up trade as it's quite possible Blue goes before the pick you would get for Cook. And asking Blue to be what Cook was for us last season out of the gate is a big ask. I fail to see the logic. Ride Cook out, Draft his replacement next season, and get a comp pick for him in 2027 - that will most likely be more than what you'd get in trade for him this season. Don't worry, with the way you fall in love with prospects and think they're all sure things, there will be a RB in next years Draft that you like as much as Blue and likely even more so.

He's a 4.41 guy. That's definitely not slow. But that's not exactly someone you're Drafting to add a Speed element to your WR core either.

I also want Burden III. But there's a number of issues there: 1.) He's not a speedy WR and I think they want speed. 2.) If he falls to a spot where we can pick him, that probably means that the concerns with his practice/work ethic and his inner circle (reportedly his mom is "a problem" and his girlfriend is his manager) are real. In which case, they'd probably pass. 3.) Those things aren't real concerns, in which case they'd have to trade up quite a bit in Round 2 for him and I don't see them doing that for a WR. Though, like my thoughts on Collins' fit, I'd love to be wrong here too.

I like Collins too. But while being a great run stuffer, he provides little to nothing in terms of Pass Rush. And Beane generally doesn't go for big space eaters who can't Pass Rush. My gut is he prefers Joshua Farmer and I almost expect him to be one of the pics. But I'd be happy to be wrong and he takes Collins if he's there.

You can't just switch just any aging CB to Safety. They need to have the traits of a Safety to make that switch. They need to be good tacklers and good open field tacklers. That is not a strong point in Tre White's game.

Ray Davis IG story (sadly no one's reposted it to a Tweet) is a really good watch. https://www.instagram.com/stories/hbk_ray/3618275287888920602?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igsh=emQ1bnJ4bjlyM3ly

We paid him 2.2m. We paid Dane less than that. Neither is guaranteed a roster spot or is any sort of long term solution.

Johnson or Green. But he's taking his time so he's probably exploring a Sanders trade up.

Johnson or Green will be there for us. The problem is Green's off the field.

Hoping it's for Jihaad Campbell. They have a need and he's slid.

Ahahahahahahahaha I knew it was going to be Dart and it's still hilarious.

They're going to pick Dart and i'm going to laugh and laugh and laugh.

Damn.

That highest scoring offense we witnessed in the regular season was pretty lackluster against the great teams with good to great Defenses in the Playoffs. We had to completely lean on James Cook for Baltimore and KC. And when the game was on the line, the core failed us.
