I guess I did ask for it. LOL Seems familiar

Not a fan of this pick. I don't think he's a NT and he's definitely not a 3-4 DE.

Oof. Really?

Damn it. I hope we didnt give up much. Better not have to only move up two spots.

No. We're guaranteed at this point to have a very nice option available.

Awesome. The Bucs drafted a guy who would've gone in the 4th or 5th with a different last name.

I went into tonight assuming Rodriguez would be gone and saying I'd be thrilled with Allen or Hill. Ain't nothing changed.

I mean, that's guarantees. That's like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow.

It was going well but there could be a run on LBs now. Pretty much every team coming up now has a significant need at LB.

Loving the way this is playing out so far. Every pick has been like... REALLY? THAT guy??!!

Gonna change the title to Day 2 draft talk and pin it

Yeah, the blue blood programs can't horde four and five star guys on their third string anymore but they still have plenty if talent. Just look st all those OSU and Bama guys that went last night and folks really wanted to pretend like Bama had a "down year" in terms of talent. GTFOH. That Bama team would've been the most talented team in program history outside of about 10 programs.

At some point we gotta stop drafting pure RAS. It hasn't been working for us. That approach came with Fitts. I hope he reverses the trend of elite athletes busting for us but Freeling has the 2nd highest RAS in RAS history for OTs. Ironically the one time we said "fug RAS, we have conviction about this guy" it was to draft Bryce Young who probably had the lowest RAS in QB history.

Our needs combined with this draft class has always neen screaming LB in the 2nd. Hopefully it all plays out that way.

Center is deep in this draft. I hope we take one but I hope it's in the 4th or 5th. I don't want a center tonight. I just don't think there's much drop off from the guys who might go tonight and the guys who are gonna get drafted tomorrow.

Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.

I could see us working the phones, especially if Rodriguez, Hill, and/or Allen go off the board early. Those three seem like they're cream of the crop LBs left and then there's Golday and after that there's a pretty steep drop off. Not to say there won't be some good players come put of that group because there will be but they'll be getting harder to identify at that point.

I think McVay both wanted a player to try to help him win another one with Stafford AND was thinking.... oh great, already been down this road with Goff of a young QB who has everything you want in terms of intangibles but is basically "barely checks the box" level across the board in terms of physical tool set.

I'd like to come put of tonight with two out of the following guys: Jacob Rodriguez - LB Anthony Hill - LB Jake Golday - LB Dominique Orange - NT Emmanuel McNeil-Warren - S Bud Clark - S Max Klare - TE What I'm really hoping to avoid is a pick that has us all saying Those types of guys need to happen in the 6th or 7th or IDFA signings

TBD There will end up being mid-rounders who start most of the season throughout the league and as Panthers fans well know just because you're starting doesn't mean you're starter quality. Sometimes you're just the best bad option.

I like our chances of having a good option at LB tonight in the 2nd. Rodriguez, Hill, Allen, and Golday are all still available and I don't see them all going in the first 18 picks tonight.

Thieneman

Campbell has a really weird build altogether. Not just the short arms but he's really narrow across the shoulders too. Overall, it just leads to a really short reach and a narrow base. You better have flawless technique and really quick feet to make up for it and he showed neither as a rookie.

No one who watched the Pats in the playoffs is surprised to see them go OT in the 1st. It wouldn't be shocking to see Lomu at LT. Will Campbell struggled mightily in the playoffs concluding in an absolute turnstile of a showing in the SB.

I wanted Thieneman but I don't hate it. No guarantee (honestly probably unlikely) Icky returns to form and Moton is aging out.
