I'd be fine with the best DT/Simmons at 1 now that we have someone capable of being more than a "speed bump mcgee" at LT. I orginally wanted a OT at 7 but now that we have another body we can plug in (barring injury) it gives our 22 year old 2nd year Tackle another season to develop with this coaching staff. Getting a blue chip player on defense will help to start rebuilding that side of the ball. We have mostly our starters set on offense except for maybe 1-2 spots on the oline/TE. Also need some good young speedsters as the 3/4 and our offense is set. Defense will likely need another offseason of retooling to have a chance at being good enough for top 15. But really the only side of the ball that's been completely torn down is the defense. This team isnt far off playoff territory with a healthy Cam, we should be able to put up lots of points.

I would've felt a lot better about Brown if he worked on improving that 3-cone and re-ran it. I'm not a huge "40-time" or bench press guy, but 3-cone is a pretty telling stat at overall athleticism. 

Wonder how kk did on that drill....or Star

gotta say I felt the same way 

I’d feel a lot better if Hurney were no where near this rebuild. Been seeing the fruits of that clown’s work since after the Siefert disaster. As bad as George was, he did hit on some great picks in his final draft

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
