We'll have a much better idea of who we'll be drafting after we play our last game. Its hard to predict right now where we will end up because we've recently been stringing wins together. If we win out (unlikely, but possible) we wont have a chance at a lot of the prospects we're currently being mocked for.

Yes, I think we miss out on Claiborne.. unfortunately. He was my top pick for us. With Kalil not entering the draft, that makes it more unlikely.

1. Colts - Luck

2. Vikes - Riley Rieff/Blackmon

3. Rams - Blackmon/Rieff

4. Jags - Claiborne

There is your top 4.

There's also Jonathon Martin. He's an incredible talent, and very high on a lot of people's Draft boards. I would see the Rams taking an offensive lineman, especially since Sam Bradford was hit all season long.

Even if Rieff and Martin go #2 and #3 respectively, Blackmon will go the Jags at #4, then Claiborne will get snagged by the Bucs before us.. we need to lose to the Bucs in order for us to have a shot at Claiborne. I don't think the Bucs will beat us at home.. do you?

True, but the Jags situation could be the interesting one. PFT did an article a few days ago talking about how the new coach in Jacksonville might not be committed to Gabbert, especially if a better option presents itself.

If Barkley declares, there's him, as well as RG3.

I think it would be dumb to go to another QB so fast after drafting Gabbert, but, new owner, new coach, eh. We'll see.

It has happened once before (drafting a QB in the 1st round two years in a row). It is possible considering the new coaching staff, and Gabbert has not been light out.. and doesn't seem to be improving too quickly. I hope Barkley declares along with Kalil because that will help a ton in dropping Claiborne.. but still, if we beat the Bucs again, it will be a moot point because they will assurededly take Claiborne.

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
