I think its so obvious that we go C and WR in the 2nd round. The fits are just too good. Corbett and Brady can swing and provide depth. At least that is what I would do if I were in charge. If Bryce stinks then the offense should be in good shape next year for #1 pick/Dak/whatever route they go. I'd rather get the offense really good first than try to focus on both sides of the ball at once. Like what the Chiefs and Lions did

Why did the Texans go after Mixon and Diggs and other improvements? "the lengths they will have gone to, to help him" ? Flawed argument. Out of 8 billion people in the world every single person except for 1 (Mahomes) need their teams to go through lengths to help him On the #9 pick, you knew what I meant. Most teams trade 2 future firsts to move up that far or get a QB. We didn't. That is the saving grace.

While I agree with your premise of an elite TE making the offense so much easier, the chances of a drafted tight end being elite are extremely low. This team has too many holes to be gambling on a 2nd round tight end. Any tight end that isn't elite can be had in free agency for cheap.

I think we draft WR and OL in round 2, then depending on who's there in round 3, either draft another WR or sign a free agent WR to fill out the roster. No need to sign him now

I feel like the optimists admit mistakes far more than the pessimists admit they were wrong. If Bryce has a really good season next year, you'll have a lot of the posters that trash him every post - and they know who they are - pretend like they never said anything or just make a new account because they don't want to save face The truth is, the jury is still out on Bryce. In a season of bad he made some great throws, zipped some touchdowns in tight windows, had some long drives, and had several clutch 4th down throws, but those posters pretend like he didn't show a single NFL skill for the sake of their Colin Cowherd-level hot takes. Thankfully we didn't trade two firsts and if Bryce is just as bad we have our first next year.

Absolutely not, if Bryce sucks we will just take a QB next year which means we just wasted the 33rd pick on a QB

I really want to find a way to get Mitchell. The way he moves and shakes people loose, he can be the next Lamb/Chase

Charlie Campbell says Legette is reminiscent of Breshad Perriman coming out of college. Same size, speed, rawness and traits. Not exactly a ringing endorsement

I don't believe the Corbett thing for a second. They said that so they don't telegraph to teams on draft day that they have an obvious glaring hole at C. There could be a high quality one at 33, and if not I would trade back and get a second tier one. On the sacks, I agree, and I was more than fed up with Burns on run plays and really any other play where he's not rushing the quarterback. I just don't think a situational pass rusher is worth spending that much of your cap on. Honestly would rather have a 30M/yr wide receiver.

I think we are fine this year, and we need to never give out of FA contract to a RB again. Just draft a mid rounder every year. Unless we luck into a CMC level talent The return of investment rate for free agent tight ends and running backs is extremely low. They don't need to be paid unless they are Kelce/Olsen/Gronk or CMC/Tomlinson/Charles tier of player. Said at the time of signings last year that Fitterer was an idiot for giving Hurst and Sanders those contracts, and in reply Mr. Scot said I was an idiot....welp!

Also, every year there's a team seemingly out of nowhere that is the worst team in the league, this year it was our turn unfortunately. And every year one of the worst teams has a massive improvement. I highly doubt, as pessimistic as a lot of you are, we are the worst team next year. I can see a team like Seattle, Denver, Tampa or Minnesota just absolutely imploding their way to 2-14

Need a center in the 2nd round, and another weapon (either WR or TE). Do that and we are improved on paper. Only downgrade on that list is going from Burns/Luvu to Clowney/Wonnum, but we saved a shitload of money in the process. Every other "departure" was below average and I suspect most will be out of the NFL soon

Production wise he is the same as Burns, a better run defender but just older. If he gives two solid years then he likely equals what Burns would have done the rest of his time here. Just got to make pick 39 count now

Legette will go top 20. He will rise like crazy over the last month like Olave did. So i’m not getting my hopes up.

Yeah I don't get the argument. Unless you have Mahomes, every single other team in the NFL needs offensive line and wide receivers. The last closest to win without was Cam, who's lack of an offensive line doomed him in the super bowl. I guess some posters on here want to wait until we get the best quarterbacks in the world. Okay, but you'll be waiting a long time, that just isn't realistic. There's only 7 good quarterbacks in the world (Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Stroud, Lamar, Hurts, Herbert) and about 12 average quarterbacks (Purdy, Dak, Cousins, Goff, Love being the high end). All besides Mahomes need weapons and a offensive line, period. So it's "catering to Bryce" to bring in offensive line and weapons? Like what?

I'd rather develop Mingo. I think its fairly obvious our receiving core will be DJ, 33/39, Thielen, Mingo, ISM unless Mike Williams comes at a discount

Bears always blow their picks, only think that hurts is that we should have traded Burns instead of Moore

vikings are trying to trade up further in the first i suppose and just wanted this done so they didn’t have to rush on draft day

i think they stay and select one of the two centers if they are there. we need an elite center. but yes the furthest i would trade back is 36-40. and need an early third at the minimum

Wow, shocked he went just for this. He has a lot of talent

Burns was worth 2 firsts, and then he sucked for a year and half and got older, so he isn't. Basically the jist of it The return is disappointing, but the team just has to draft better and we'll never get better until we do.

I'm open to drafting a guard or center at 33. Interior OL is our biggest issue on the entire team.

I would 100% trade him for a first round pick if that were available. If he was good against the run, then that's an easy player to keep as your cornerstone. But he just isn't. He's a one way, situational player and just isn't worth the 30+ million a year.

Again, players do not care about winning when it comes to free agency. they want guaranteed money and comfort. Evans could have gone to the Chiefs if he really wanted to win, but guess what, he just wanted to stay in Tampa and get the bag

players want money and comfort in free agency. they don’t give a poo about winning
