I’m still taking Graham if he’s there.

How many DT’s do we need? We already have D Brown, Wharton, Bobby Brown, A Robinson, Tuttle, Ray all under contract. That would be a poor allocation of resources with how many other holes we have. That’s a lot of $$ on the sideline watching.

Mine has never changed, T-Mac no matter what.

I also just don't get the love affair with Walker, especially at 8.

He's more MLB than Edge right now and he's no Kuechly.  He's not going to make an immediate significant pass rush improvement in year 1, if he's going to turn into an elite edge rusher, it's going to take him a few years to bulk up and just play more (he basically only has 1 year of playing time in college).

He's a low floor, high ceiling, raw prospect, which I'm not against taking in general, but I'd like them to have more of a true position, or at least, be more of an Edge than a MLB, not the other way around.

Wharton DT: ranked in lower half of league in run d; 6.5 sacks last year.

Jackson CB: good pairing w/ JC Horn.

Moehrin S: second on team w/ 104 tackles.

Jones LB: 7 sacks last year with only one start so he can get to the qb.

Brown DT: will fit the D nicely as a nose that can eat up blocks and stop the run.

Tremble: hoping he continues to improve as a pass catcher.

Corbett: bring back the oline that helped Bryce.

Man we opened up our options in this draft. Obviously still need a lot of help but it doesn't feel quite as desperate. I might have to change my opinion on Tet.  Still wouldn't mind a trade back scenario.

I think they are still wanting to beef up the front 7. Particularly with pass rushers. Really depends on how the board falls. I'd love to have several good options and be able to trade down a little bit. I could also see us getting Will Johnson, Tyler Warren, or Tet McMillan

    • This was his first season playing where he was healthy. I have never seen anyone be given more chances to get healthy than this guy. I don't know what contract he will get, but someone will be gambling that he will be available. If he could be had for back-up guard money, I'd go for him quickly, and use him situationally as an extra tight end. If he can't be, that's fine. In my fantasy scenario, we have completely remade our offense under a new and improved Bryce with an Offensive Coordinator (Canales) who finally figured out how to run the offense later in the year.  I can dream. And all of my dreams have been wrong. We will not get Warren, Skattebo, or Becton, and all three will be major contributors wherever they go. 
    • He seems to be able to handle FA signings pretty well, but the draft is where a GM makes or breaks a team and the results are inconclusive at the moment.
    • There’s also a big difference between our starters and most other teams. We’ve been bottom of the barrel since second half of 2018. Drafting a “starter” here is a lot easier than drafting a starter in KC so your stat, while true, doesn’t indicate that we are draft less starters each draft and we aren’t getting impact guys outside Brown and 50% of an impact guy in Horn. After round 1, since 2018, Chubba is literally the only impact starter in 7 drafts. Thats horrific drafting and it’s why we’ve spent $270M on 2 guards, 2 DTs and 1 safety. People go to the SB when they spend that on their franchise QB, not on guards, DTs and safeties. I hope they all make the team better but overpaying positions we should be drafting and developing on the cheap is not the best way to build a contender.
