WITH THE 35TH PICK IN THE 2024 NFL DRAFT, THE ARIZONA CARDINALS SELECT: XAVIER LEGETTE WR UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA The Cardinals decide to double dip on WR first taking Harrison and following it up with the selection of Legette in Round 2. This has become an offensive league and the Cardinals have failed to invest in the WR room through the draft. They have lost DeAndre Hopkins, Rondale Moore, and Marquise Brown in the last couple of years and its time to restock the cupboard with young talent to see if Kyler Murray is the guy in the future. With the selection of Harrison in the first, this allows the Cardinals to bring along Legette and teach him the finer points of the position. There is no denying his physical attributes as a potential high end WR but will need time to be successful. Legette will start out as WR 3 and could eventually either push Michael Wilson to the bench, start in the slot, or move outside allowing Harrison to work in the inside. This one is for you Bills fans 😉 @Alphadawg7 is on the clock

This is what I’ve been saying from the beginning as it pertains to not needing a traditional X. I understand the want for it but this is 2024 football not 1990 football. Cosell lays it out perfectly. Offenses use interchangeable parts that can play inside or outside and make a defense prepare for personnel and formations. This is why I said I expected Samuel to play outside with Diggs on the roster and he is definitely going to play more out there now. This is why I have been a huge McConkey guy. He’s a guy you can line up everywhere and find success and his strength is route running and getting open.

If they make a move on any veteran WR I expect it to be after the draft. Prob want to see what they end up with. Maybe it’s just me as well but I never considered Aiyuk to be a # 1 WR deserving of 20-25 million a year.

Dawson Knox just took a big pay-cut. That’s very bad business to have a guy take a massive pay-cut and then trade them. That’s something players remember and talk about to other players. I also don’t think they’re interested in adding another massive WR 1 contract right now unless they miss out on the draft targets they want. I think they want two cheap WR contracts first and only add another 20 million dollar guy if it doesn’t work out in the draft.

It’s over man. Mitchell has it. We ain’t getting a run of 16 Legette picks overnight

I will say that the Texans on paper have quite an offense. I will also say they’re playing a dangerous game imo. They have a clearly ascending player in CJ Stroud going into his second year and looks like a future star. The dangerous game is they added two players who are known as malcontents in Diggs and Mixon surrounding him who can wear and take a toll on a young QB and team of things aren’t going their way.

What are you talking about man? I have been one of the biggest McConkey to Bills supporters on here. I also said you are right in this particular instance BUT your bias shows when you post about Georgia or former Georgia players which is a fair criticism. I’ve never seen you say anything negative about Georgias prospects. I am an FSU fan but have numerous times stated how the offense didn’t flow. Coleman was asked to run a limited route tree at FSU. That Jordan Travis abandoned the middle of the field for example. Just because Georgia players are ranked high doesn’t mean they don’t have flaws in their game as it pertains to their NFL career. Since you have first hand knowledge why not provide each players strengths and weaknesses for us.

Your not wrong but I will say in the few posts you have made you have an extreme bias towards players from Georgia or former players at Georgia. Just something I have noticed. Nothing wrong with fandom of course but I can't take it objectively when you speak on players from Georgia.

Won’t happen in real life and it doesn’t help that every Bills fan wants a WR and every team is drafted by Bills fans

If I was allowed to trade down with Minnesota in the mock I would have taken Legette at 27 just to spite this board. Yes I’m petty like that lol.

That Samuel is going to get a lot more reps outside than people believe. I said it the moment we signed him while everyone was clamoring about us signing another slot guy

I think Thomas is a strong possibility but I don’t think they’d tip their hand on the top 3 if that’s the route their going to go

I have Arnold as 1B to Quinyon Mitchell. I would take Mitchell first if both are available but I believe both are top 20 picks.

WITH THE 27th PICK IN THE 2024 NFL DRAFT, THE ARIZONA CARDINALS SELECT: TERRION ARNOLD CB UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA The Cardinals can’t believe that Arnold falls all the way to 27 in the draft. Arnold presents too good of value to pass up as well as filling a need in the Arizona secondary. Arnold is not a finished product as he has only played the position for a short time and has safety flex. Arnold had great ball production and is athletic enough to matchup in both man and zone. Arizona walks away with Harrison and Arnold in the first round @Virgil and the Poll for the Bills is on the clock

Denver would also make a good trade partner. Rebuilding team who could either take a QB at 28 or use the 20251st for a QB they want in next years draft.

I am probably more on the train for Brian Thomas in the top 15 than I am going up to say 9 which I think is the likeliest spot. I do think there is a good possibility that Rome Odunze could slip and I would love to get him. If the Bears want to do it, I think you have to add in this years draft picks since they dont have many. A lot of people suggest the Rich Hill Model now. Bears pick: 9 (Worth 387 points) 2025 4th Rounder(Worth 15 points) Total: 402 Points Bills trade: 28(209 points) 2025 1st Rounder(120 points) 2024 4th Rounder(19 points) 2024 5th Rounder(13 Points) 2025 3rd Rounder (50 points) Total: 411 points This would give the Bills the opportunity to draft Rome Odunze at 9 This would leave the Bills in the 2024 draft with: 9, 60, 4th rounder, 2 5th rounders, 2 6th rounders, and a 7th rounder....this leaves the Bills with 8 draft picks Next Year: 2nd(Vikings), 2nd (Bills) 4th, 4th(Davis Comp pick), 4th(Bears Trade) 5th, 5th (Floyd Comp pick), 6, 6(Basham Trade)......this leaves the Bills with 9 draft picks next year. I think this is a very plausible scenario for Rome if he falls.

Either way that Alpha or two rookies however it plays out will be damn lucky to have Josh Allen throwing them the ball.

Either the Bills are trading up massive for who they consider an alpha or they are double dipping very early in this draft. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s at 28 and 60 back to back

I think this makes a trade up extremely likely. Whether that’s for Nabers/Odunze or Brian Thomas we’ll see. The 2025 draft is now up to 10 picks. This year we still have 9. Giving up the 2025 1st will still leave us with 2nds next year. I smell a trade up with the Bears or Saints coming. Seems like the Bills and Bears have a good working relationship

No he didnt. Sam Darnold or JJ McCarthy is starting for the Vikings. He’s getting essentially a very early 2nd rounder for a 30 year old declining WR who is a pain in the ass

So I would expect the Vikings to be not great this year so hopefully that 2025 2nd rounder is in the top 40. It would still probably take 28 a 2025 first and the Vikings 2025 2nd to begin the conversation

Oh boy I’m surprised to the Texans but pick # 44 better be involved. I did say that it wouldn’t surprise me if they are the dead cap if they could get back an early 2nd rounder. I have to assume that’s involved Double dip at WR coming? Puts my boy McConkey back on the table lol

Fashanu? He went pick 10

I don’t think the Bills make a move far up the board either. If they really like Brian Thomas Jr and he slides to the mid teens I could see them parting with a 2025 1st only if there is a big gap between he and whoever they consider # 5. That’s about as far up I can see them reasonably taking it. I just don’t see 5-10 as a possibility

Yup I agree. We all know at this point who are the Legette lovers and non lovers. It’s okay to disagree. Half will look dumb and half will look smart 3 years from now. I enjoy the banter but you also have to realize when to let your takes breathe.
