Still bums me out that the Chiefs took Saumatia just a few picks before, but Coleman has some potential. I think you gotta try him at T first and if it doesn't work, then you kick him inside.

We'll get one Thursday Night game as everyone in the league does. My guess is either the Baltimore or Chicago game will be MNF, but a late season one that can be flexed out in case Daniels(and/or Williams in Chicago's case) doesn't live up to the hype early on.

Need plays a factor, but the point is you don't pass up on super talented players to get a guy who might only end up being average because he fills a short term need. At the end of the day, rosters fluctuate quite a bit in the NFL and a position that looks strong one year can be a dire need in 2 years. E.g. the Eagles didn't need a DT when they took Jalen Carter last year, but he was just too talented to pass up. Now Fletcher Cox has retired and Carter can slide right in as full time starter perfectly.

What I really liked about this draft is that there are no WTF picks. No Phidarian Mathis or trading up for long snapper type moves. No stiffs like Ryan Anderson. We got players that look the part that at least garnered legit pre draft attention and hype.

The reality is: MOST O Lines in the league are bad. You talk to fans of every team and almost every single one of them will tell you how much their OL sucks. I think the only fan bases happy with their OL are the Lions, Chiefs, and Eagles. Maybe the Ravens and Texans also. OL play around the league sucks. Our OL is below average but I scheme, playcalling, and an inexperienced QB who had a historically bad sack rate in college made them look worse then they are. There is no chance they look that bad again this year with an upgraded interior, what should be better playcalling(I can't imagine anything worse), and a QB that is much faster at processing and with a quicker release(who is also a legit run threat, which will change the way Ds attack us).

Hes not the athlete La Porta is. La Porta gets open way more. I like Sinnot but do think we took him a wee bit early. Its nit picky though and ultimately I think we got a good football player.

As a member of Maye Nation I have to say…I think we may have simply over valued him and under valued Daniels. By just about every count JD5 was QB2 in this draft, not Maye who only a small minority preferred. Nothing is guaranteed of course, but this was the right pick. Im fully on board(but do think Maye will also end up being good if the Pats develop him properly).

Drafting for need is how we ended up with this trash roster. Exactly. Mikey is short, not small.

Hes more Cooley than anything else. Maybe a bit better blocker. Im so glad the Cole Turner and John Bates experiment can end.

We did eff up not having Green announce him tho lolol

We aren’t trading Allen. Why are people allergic to stacking talent?

Wilson/Van Pran would be great

He's much better than Moreland gtfoh

They liked Brian Thomas jr a lot. Wouldn't shock me if, after the Jags moved down from 17, they tried to trade up for him. Unfortunately we couldn't quite get up to 22 and Thomas went to the Jags anyway at 23(great value by them). I do think we tried to move up for Guyton though, but the Detroit/Dallas trade kinda effed things up in that respect.

There is no CB we could have drafted that would check anyone the Eagles have anyway.

He's 100% a slot. He is unplayable on the outside but in the slot he's gonna be elite.

There is still some really good WR talent and I think round 5 might be a good spot to take a stab at a RB too. Would snag Van Pran in a heartbeat if he's there.

He's an athlete and KK needs athletic linemen that can move/block in space. Good scheme fit, but will need time to develop.

Cooley 2.0. Love that he can lineup anywhere. I think Kingsbury is gonna have fun moving him and LuMac around. Can see some wild formations.

He's a beast. Ionidis 2.0 but even more athletic.

Yeah I'd have preferred him over LuMac(my nickname for him), but there has to be something up with him beyond just a bad combine. Everyone is passing on him repeatedly and teams are taking supposedly inferior WR prospects.

Sainstril is awesome. Best slot/nickel CB in the draft and an absolute monster all over. He's gonna be a fan favorite before you know it. I don't like letting a division rival get Dejean either, but we got good value out of the deal. I'm glad we didn't reach for needs. That's how we end up in the Rivera predicament where we end up with a bunch of JAGs or just decent at best players because we went in saying "we have to draft position X or position Y in round 2, 3 etc" instead of just accumulating talent and letting the coaches figure it out.

It just feels great to finally get a player in the mid rounds that I wanted from the beginning. In years past we always end up drafting guys I've never heard of and they inevitably end up busting. Sainristill will be a stud. By 2025 best nickel/slot CB in the league. Quinn is gonna have fun moving him, Chinn, and Martin around. I don't know how good our D will be but it'll be fun to watch schematically.

Yeah feels a bit early to me too, but remember once you get to this portion of the draft everyone's board is gonna be radically different. Also, we don't pick again until round 5, so if we really like him we had to take him at 100 or we weren't going to get him at all.

Theres no way Troy Franklin falls to rd 5 right???
