I like the April Fool's joke but if there's one player in the NFL who isn't on PED's its Bryce. Just look at our short King I'm pretty sure the NFL doesn't even test him it would be a waste of a test.

My preference is to trade back and take Matthew Golden but if we stay at 8 I'm taking Jalon Walker. There are some guys that you just know are gonna be good players based on their personality and the more I see of Jalon Walker talking about football the more confident I am in that belief. He'd be a perfect fit with the culture Dave and Dan are building here. His ceiling is Micah parsons, and his floor is a Frankie Luvu but on steroids with his elite athleticism.

Rookie Kelvin Benjamin was a stud. It's a shame his career went the way it did because I had such high hopes for him after that season.

The reason Mykel or Shemar will be the pick is because both of them have the ability to play a 3/4 edge or a 4-3 DE. We are planning for a future where Evero isn't here either by choice or he takes a job elsewhere when his contract expires at the end of the season. We needed a young edge and while I like Jalon Walker's athleticism as a 3-4 edge the value isn't there as top 10 pick if he's forced to be an inside LB in a 4-3 with a new DC. I'd love the Mykel pick at 8 as I feel the ankle injury played a big role in his lack of production this year. As for Shemar he's just way too much of a project to take at 8 and he could be had at a trade down spot. His sack numbers are concerning but his overall pressure numbers are good but after watching Burns miss and whiff on so many sacks for 5 years I can't take another player who's gonna have high pressure numbers but can't convert them to sacks.

I understand wanting to keep Burrow happy and they did that by paying both Chase and Higgins but they should've been more worried about keeping Burrow healthy. Now with 40% of their cap space going to 3 players it's gonna be tough to build a good Oline around him and that's not even mentioning the defensive side of the ball. Burrow has already gotten seriously hurt twice behind their poor Oline. That GM is gonna have to face some tough questions when they lose games 42-35 cause the defense is so void of talent due to the lack of resources to improve it or if Burrow gets hurt and they have both receivers out there running cardio because the back up QB can't get them the ball and the Oline is giving up pressure.

That Watson thread was legendary. Does anyone have the eggshell picture?

Steelers gave up a 2nd that sealed the deal. Would've loved to have Dk but smart move by Dan and Brant to not overpay.

I think it gets done with our 3rd and some sort of pick swap like our 2nd 5th from the giants in 141 down to their pick 173 at the end of the 5th round.

I'd do our 3rd and give him an extension similar to what Jaylen Waddle got with an average value of about 28 million. That's about the sweet spot for Dk in that Waddle, Dj Moore and Tee Higgins pay range. Guys with the talent and skill to be number #1s but who are best in a WR 2 role.

Would love to add him to the edge room. He's a really good speed rusher who has put up good sack numbers despite some injuries and limited snaps as a back up. He could come here and play a role similar to early career Mario Addison and be effective and providing good speed rush versus a tired Oline.

It's a 2-year deal with low guarantees that we could probably get out of next year if we really wanted to. Tremble is a young TE whose and excellent blocker and still has some receiving upside I'm ok with the deal. The total number is slightly high but I'm sure it's got some incentives in there that we'd be overly excited if Tremble reached them.

Depending on the number I like this he's good when healthy. I like Mayes at C more, but Corbett played well before he got hurt. Even if Corbett loses the C job he will be really good guard depth and make losing Brady Christensen hurt a little less.

Dk is the WR equivalent of Brain Burns and we only got a 2nd and a 5th so I'm sure that price will come down.

According to Spotrac we have almost 190 million of cap space in 2026 and 430 million in 2027. Brandt Tilis would almost certainly be able to find a way to fit a Dk extension in there. With how the cap always seems to go up more than expected each year and our spotty drafting success we don't have many players that we need to sign to big extensions. Morgan is a way better PRO scout than the is a college scout if last year is any indication so let him cook in free agency and improve this team. I think we will be more active than people expect. As far as trading for Dk I'd be willing to do 3rd at max and hope the Seattle connections between Morgan and Canales would be enough to swing the trade into our favor.

We can get a speedster for way less than what he wants. What would be the purpose of signing an overpriced veteran whose contract we'd be looking to get rid of in a years' time. I'd rather try an overpay to get an actual impactful WR 1 rather than throw that kinda money at Slayton who's contact would be the equivalent of miles sanders but at WR. Sign someone who's actually worth the price tag or let Coker and XL continue to get the reps and develop and take a flyer on a kid in the draft.

Give me Milton to play DE opposite of Brown and sign Bobby Brown III from the Rams to play NT.

I'd like to snag a true power back at some point late in the draft and a vet rental receiving back for next year so we can give Brooks the whole year off to get healthy and see what he's got in 2026.

I liked Eddy but his lack of NFL leg power makes me wanna move on. Dude just didn't have enough power for anything much past 50 yards and I'd rather have a guy with that ability. He was super accurate when he wasn't hurt but I'm still upset about the DJ helmet game vs Atlanta 2 years ago. Also I'm not a fan of how he held out of OTA's because he wanted a new contract and thought he should've been one of the highest paid kickers in the league. He's gonna get a rude awaking once the offers from other teams come in.

I hate that I'm having to root for the Eagles as I find their fans incredibly toxic but I'm just so tired of the blatant favoritism the NFL gives KC and Mahomes that I'd rather see the Eagles stick their finger in the eye of NFL and pull out a win.

The Jets just opened up the door for them to take a QB at 7.

I'd rather have Tee Higgins at 30 million than Kupp at 29.8 million a year. He's gonna be cut as no team is gonna take that cap hit but I'd be willing to roll the dice on a 1-2 year deal around 10 to 15 million a year.

Sounds like his agent gave him a pretty good guarantee he's gonna be a top 15 lock. The more I see of Mike Green the more I like him and I'm slowly wanting him to be the pick at #8.

THATS A THROW!

After Tom left New England and retired, I've come actual like and respect Brady. Kelce just seems genuinely unlikeable to anyone who isn't a KC fan.

Travis Kelce seems like such a douche.
