not bad.....but he thinks mickens will be the first Clemson player drafted by Carolina....hmmm

Unless he made a trade, he missed the 7th rounder, I think its 240. 

[Whoops]

Strong dislike after Walker.

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports that an NFL team assigned Texas WR Isaiah Bond a first-round draft grade after Bond ran a 4.34-second 40-yard dash at Texas’ Pro Day.

Wilson also reports that the Bills have scheduled three separate meetings with Bond, including a Thursday dinner, a private Friday workout and a trip to the Bills’ facility in Orchard Park, New York. Bond is also scheduled to meet with the Browns and Packers, and will participate in the Falcons’ local prospect day. The Bills regrettably traded back five spots in the 2024 NFL draft, allowing the Chiefs to take the speedy Xavier Worthy, while the Bills later drafted Keon Coleman. Worthy caught 30 more passes than Coleman last year, and the Bills are still searching for a speedy perimeter receiver. Perhaps, Bond is their man.

I love Ivey in the 5th. I think he’s comparable to Mykel or vice versa.

[GoobyPls]

I like Bond, kind of reminds me of Curtis Samuel

Will Johnson and Tyler Warren were still there. No thanks.

This is why you dumb bastards know more than the “experts”

There is no way in hell that we spend our 2nd round pick on a 3-4 DE when we have Derrick Brown and just paid the hell out of Wharton. Maybe if we didn’t suck, but we do.  Homie didn’t do his homework.

We spent a 2nd last year on a RB that won't take meaningful snaps in 2 years now along with a WR that body catches while trading up 1 spot into the 1st so they could get a 5th year option on a 25 year old project. Don't underestimate the "experts" ability to do dumb things and think it's great.

It’s a bit of a different scenario. We hadn’t extended Chuba when we drafted Brooks. XL can still be a starter. You really have 3 starting WR these days. But I understand you can’t be too confident in our front office. BPA is great when your roster isn’t full of holes. Going to have to BPA and fill a gap with our first couple picks.

Brooks was a bad pick. Chubba didn't matter because it was known Brooks would miss a lot of time well ahead of the draft plus the GM signed Sanders as an AGM and pro personnel guy. It was just a bad pick and this draft is loaded with guys who can make Brooks meaningless if he ever is actually healthy. Just a bad pick and BS from every angle to justify it.

XL is 26 and trying to work on being a decent WR. That's not great but it just shows that these people can do anything and think it's great at the time.

xl is 24 and if we dont draft a rb in this draft then we should fuging revolt.  So many top tier talents that will be going in the 3rd and 4rth

Wow how did i get that so wrong. 23 not 25 in his draft. Just dumb and still needs ro learn to be a WR.

Completely agree about the rest.

I get the feeling they signed Dowdle so they don't have to.  It's why I thought the move was kinda lame.
