Sooooo... simple question, who are your favorite candidates for the draft right now? I would prefer to see names that will likely fall to the late first or second round.

WR: Tate, Shipley

DT: Alualu

LB: Weatherspoon, Curran

DE: Wooton

Alualu and Curran are my absolute favorites right now.

I am really hoping we take a WR with our first pick. I would love to see any of the following drafted: Arrelious Benn, Tate, Damien Williams or D. Thomas. If Weatherspoon were to fall It would be hard to pass him up though....

I agree with all the WRs you just listed.. in fact, I bet you anything we get one of those WRs with out first pick. Weatherspoon falling is a pipe dream. His stock has risen a ton lately. He is a solid 1st rounder.

Keep in mind that we can trade up if he falls to the lower 20's. You never know. I disagree with those WR's btw (barring Tate) but I've been a bit harsh on prospects of late.

WR-Golden Tate, Mardy Gilyard

DT-Tyson Alualu, Brian Price

LB-Sean Weatherspoon, Navorro Bowman

DE-Corey Wootton, Ricky Sapp

later in the draft if we take a DT before a DE, I'd like us to pick up Greg Hardy in the 5th round or so

I agree with most of this list

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
