Look at it like this, we acquired the Chiefs pick and then traded back one spot. It's not so bad then.

We have options at WR, guys. I have no idea what everyone is anxious over, outside of the fact the Carolina Panthers suck at drafting WRs...especially in the second round. Big board ranked 27-44 Again, there are plenty of options at WR, we just have to choose the RIGHT one of those remaining.

I know this is satire, however the irony is I knew it was a suicidal move last year although most fans were on board with it. As ridiculous as your statement looks now, it was THAT ridiculous to me last year.

There will be a WR there to draft at #33, that's not what is bothering me. The problem is we'll take one and the next one off the board will be the OROY.

Didn't love the mock, didn't hate it either. Hit the need positions mostly, but I would have taken different players and largely in different rounds.

In short; obviously, correct and doubtful. On the last point, IOL will not trump the need for a WR and we are not taking a tackle.

It's an offensive heavy first part of the draft. BPA will likely be an offensive player, probably even a WR. Although it could be a QB....just say'n.

Michael Pittman Jr., Calvin Ridley, JK Osborn?

I guess the question is now, since Higgins is likely tagged, who is the FA WR target now?

I'm warming up to both the Texas guys, especially Worthy.

Yup, being reported on sports talk radio as a very real possibility Higgins being tagged.

Preaching to the choir bother. All our starters on the OL are under contract and should be healthy by the start of the season. We even have several backups inked too. Let's see how they look if we go back to a run first approach, which has been implied, and they excel at. There's too many other holes on this roster to sign "competition" for the sake pushing these guys. They all know they are on the hot seat...so to speak, so wasting money on signing FA O-linemen to motivate our exiting guys is simply dumb.

Lol, I've been mocking that way. We aren't taking a QB (sadly) and there will be 1 or 2 premier guy(s) remaining. Somebody will want to jump up for McCarthy and possibly either Nix or Penix (whomever is left). Move back to the low 40's (thinking Giants, Vikings, or Raiders assuming they don't go QB in round 1). The elite WRs will be gone and there is a glut of second tier guys in the second round. We will still get a good WR 10 spots or so later.

Weak class for TEs. And no, we are not getting Bowers.

Back on the Minshew wagon.

The 2023 season is over, so why hang on to guys a few more weeks when you know they will not be on your 2024 roster? Some players have early March roster bonuses. Plus this gives time for their agents to get some things lined up prior to FA agency starting, which begins exactly in one month.

Davis did NOT look natural at LB his first year or even his second. The staff kept flip-flopping him back and forth because they wanted him to be a LB but looked more comfortable as a safety. Thomas had to grow into that LB role. Chinn can be a really good safety, no doubt, but could be an absolute terror as a OLB for opposing QBs.

WR, RB, OLB/Egde, IOL (G/C), DL (1-tech), DB

Eh, I'm not impressed with Beck. I mean, look how that roster made Stetson Bennett appear. Again, not to beat a dead horse, but I'm more intrigued by the second and third tier QBs in next year's draft as flyer picks as opposed to the "top" guys.

Next draft would be an ideal time to take a flyer on a day 3 developmental pick for a QB. Lots of fringe guys that COULD develop at the next level, but a horrible draft for drafting a franchise QB.

Yup and unless something drastically changes, they are likely QB1 and QB2 next draft. Neither of them are franchise material to me. Cam Ward may climb up the board to make it a 3 person race for the top QB, but again, not an elite prospect either.
