I'm still going Tyler Warren in the first, Xavier Watts in the second.

If Warren has already been selected, Jalon Walker come oooon dooown.

Warren will be the pick.

Read the room.

I'm convinced that the Jets take him the selection before our's.

I think that they probably want a QB before then and might go with Dart.

I know who they picked up but really...

Hoping they don't grab Warren though.

Edge or LB  1

Edge LB or DB at 2

WR at 3

Taking Tet or Warren at 8 would be the biggest mistake.  TEs take time, and Tet won against inferior defenses.  He will face his best competition vs the worst coverage in the NFL, I don't feel it will translate like some think.

in the last 5 drafts, pretty much all the first round TEs were ready to contribute as rookies.  Bowers and Pitts had 1k rookie seasons.  Kincaid and Hockenson were both ready to compete right away. 

Warren IMO projects to be ready to make plays as a rookie pending the landing spot.  I think if you want him to make plays, he will pretty quickly.

I also dont think Canales values the TE position the way panther fans do

I know a lot of you like McMillan and I don't dislike him, but if a receiver is what we are wanting in the 1st. I would trade down and pick up Golden. I  feel he is going to be special.

Now I can accept that.  

But I still contend, an ideal Bryce Young O and a the standard O Canales has been involved with......aren't the perfect marriage.  So something had to give.  I would think catering to Bryce more vs expecting Bryce to fit the mold of his prior QBs is the way.

lol, you know it's just easier to say you know nothing about T-Mac than to spout dumbass stuff like "he won against inferior defenses"

But hey, at least you openly tell people you don't know what you're talking about so it's easy to dismiss what you say.

In 15 games against ranked teams he had 90 rec, 1,227 yards, and 9 TDs, with 4 of the 15 games during his Freshman year when he only had 205 yards.  So he still had over 1k yards in the 11 games against ranked teams his final 2 years.

Yes, I know there is a difference between ranked teams and good/bad defenses, but I'm not going to spend the time to look up the defensive ranking of every team he played in his 3 years, this is just quicker and easier, but it's far more evidence against your point than in support of it.

All of which is also to just ignore that he was almost never single covered this past season, had horrible QB play, horrible coaching and play calling, with no other offensive weapons to take defensive attention away from him, and he was still 3rd in the nation in yards.  Even if it was against inferior competition like you think, he still had EVERYTHING stacked against him and put up elite numbers.
