There are a lot of edge/olb type guys that could be available at 33 or 39

Jonah Ellis

Chop Robinson (most draft boards have him gone)

Chris Braswell

Adisa Issac

Trice/Dorlus (seem like more tradional 4-3 de's). 

I'm going off of PFFs ranking. These guys may go top ten for all I know 

I'm really liking Ellis due to his bloodlines. Got like 4 relatives in the NFL. Plus he played at Utah. A team that always looks extremely well coached. Seems like a guy like this is just going to have an advantage in understanding the game early on. 

I like Issac but I'm skidish on Penn state players in general. Seem to have great athletic numbers but other than that one LB don't seem ready to play. 

Seems like with wonnum we have a serviceable guy on one side but if we can't get Young or Clowney, seems like we need some immediate help from the draft and Ellis is my pick for most ready day one. 

Who are you guys leaning toward at the edge/olb position? *doesn't have to be one of the above.

we just signed two edges what are you talking about? If anything what's the ILB looking like?

One is a rotational player and the other is a decent number 2, we need a pass rushing Edge. With ILB both Cooper and Wilson should be there, but maybe a bit too early for them

the hit ratio on these high second (and late first) edge types feels like it’s awful, I’ve become really leery of it 

yeah that's why the Giants paid s king ransom for Burns & the Rams were willing to part with 2 first round picks for his services

Braswell is a bit of a wrecking ball, not refined. Took a long time to get on the field at Bama, but great size

Chop is like a Reddick style player, out athletics his competition. 
 

Elliss doesn’t have the size or speed, but has the technique. I like picking guys who I watched wreck games live. I watched Elliss wreck multiple games this year, sign me up.

This class is abnormally deep in a lot of positions. Guys that would be first rounders in most other years will be slipping to 2nd or even third rounds.

And I'm not going to base what we do this year on what we've typically done, because we aren't doing really anything typically so far with Morgan running it.

He is also pretty versatile, from what i have read.

I kinda like Issac, I think he has the size and speed to play 3-4 edge.  Both Robinson and Trice look like traditional 4-3 DEs who might be able to play 3-4 DE, which I wouldnt hate

They met with Trice already, so they think he can do it--which OLB position?  They met with him before the Wonnum signing.  Heck, meeting with a player does not mean they walked away liking what they saw....

There is a guy from Colorado State that impressed me at some point this past year.  Kamara.  had 14 sacks in 2023, 15 sacks in 2021/2022. 

Sleeper?

Teams meet with players they don't pick and pick players they don't meet with all the time

I wasn’t talking about us.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
