    We've Drafted 8 OL's In the Past 3 Drafts

    The team who coaches OL's without OL coaches has known that the OL has needed a rebuild. I expect we will need two more next draft, and 2 more in 2026. incumbents: Onwenu, Andrews 2022: Strange, Hines, Steuber 2023: Andrews, Sow, Mafi 2024: Wallace, Robinson We also brought in Okorafor...

    THE OL REBUILD - IS STRANGE HEALTHY?

    When will Strange be back at 100%? We all hope that he is healthy, but I presume that Sow is ready if needed, and perhaps Mafi. RIGHT SIDE We have no problems with Sow, Onwenu and now Robinson as a backup RG. I presume that Okorafor or Anderson or Wallace could be expected to be our swing OT...

    WIDE RECEIVER - IS BOURNE HEALTHY?

    It doesn't seem that Bourne is expected to be a key piece. When is he expected to be back anywhere close to be 100%. Even if we don't sign a top receiver, it seems that he will be our #4, barring injuries. We signed Osborne (1 year) We drafted Polk (4 years) We drafted Baker (4 years) We are...

    ATL Isn't Crazy In Drafting Penix

    ATL drafted Penix at 8 after signing Cousins to a $160M 4-year contract ($100M) guaranteed. Are they nuts? Nope! ====== Consider this scenario. The coach tells the owner that he believes that ATL has the best team in the Division and will be competitive to win the division for the...

    3 needs, all filled, and the whining continues

    Folks wanted our future QB, a WR and an OT. We did all three while making our 5th a 4th. For me, I couldn't have expected more, although my personal preference was a CB at 37 instead of a WR. ================================ The QB is who we wanted and who the staff wanted. They will be given...

    Day 3 - First Two Picks

    I expect a trade down with one of the pick, although I want them to pick. My guess is a RB and a TE,

    It will soon be time to overpay a free agent OT

    As I said yesterday, all 8 OT's likely enough to start at LT are gone. I suspect that we'll still draft an OT or two after trade down. I'm sure there are folks who think that there is no problem drafting a starting LT in the 2nd or 3rd, even if they are the 9th or 10th best OT in the draft...

    Maye or trade with CHI, NYG, AZ, LAC, MIN or DEN

    WAS is drafting Daniels. That is the only given. ============================== We could trade with CHI who wants their choice of WR We could trade with the NYG who want a QB. We could trade with AZ who we could threaten (no trade and we trade with someone else who will pick a WR) We could...

    Paul OT, Suamataia OT, Legette WR or McConkey WR

    I was looking at one the more popular mock drafts. 8 OT's were gone in the first round, with a couple of more at the top of the 2nd (Paul at 37 and Suamataia at 41) with no more for 10 or so picks. I really, really want us to draft an OT at 34. However, I don't think even I would pass on...

    Our OL and QB's are already better than last year

    We will add a QB and at least one OT and probably an OG late in the draft. We may even sign an additional free agent. ========================= QUARTERBACK Bissette replaced Jones. Rourke and Zappe are back, at least for now. IOL All are back from last year, except that the youngsters have...

    Highest Ceiling Or Highest Floor?

    I considered 10 top QB's from memory: Brady, Mahomes, Manning, Rodgers, Brees, Favre, Allen, Jackson, Prescott and Russell Wilson. I believe that only Manning was picked in the first. MVP QUALITY QUARTERBACK I believe that top 5, MVP type QB's are very rare and could come from anywhere...

    BOTTOM LINE - Entering NFL Employees Have No Choice

    The reality is that the players have haven agreement that forces new employees to work for someone they don't wish to work for. They have no choice for four years. Yes, they are paid well. Previous players have negotiated with regard to how much current players are paid. Except for a...

    How Many QB's Will Be Drafted In The First 16 Picks?

    How many QB's in the first 16 picks? I think that the answer will be 5 by pick 12. I just can't see CHI, WAS, NE, MIN or DEN passing on a QB. I saw one mock where MIN trades up to 4 or 5 and then DEN refuses to risk missing Penix and drafts him at 8. I think that the big questions are the...

    Getting a top QB in the top 5 after trading down. If we think that the #3 is top QB, just pick him.

    If we think that what is there at 3 is a potential top QB, then we should pick him, period. ================ WHAT IF WE THINK THAT THERE ARE 2 TOP QB's, BOTH GONE Now, it is time to focus on finding a starting QB with a relatively high floor. We can hope, but we really are looking for a...

    Poll - When Will We Draft a QB

    When will we draft a QB?
  18. M

    Anything Else Before The Draft?

    I would like to see Elliot decide where he will play in 2024 (here of Dallas). We do need another RB. A LT signing is certainly possible, and desirable. The rest can wait until after the draft (free safety, DT, 3rd TE, backup LG, STers).

    Rebuilding The Special Teams Units (8 of top 11 are gone)

    The STer are almost all gone. 11 players played in at least 35% of the ST reps. 8 are gone. Schooler, Tavai and Mapu are left. GONE Board Slater Phillips Wilson P. Brown Davis Montgomery Guy

    Wide Receiver

    I'm fine with trying to trade for a relatively young #1 WR. He would be part of the 2026 divisional run. That trade could come anytime this year. However, it seems more likely that we will sign a WR or two in the next off-season. ======== WR IN THE DRAFT I suspect that this is a low priority...
