It's always easy to look at drafts after the fact. I preferred OL but Carter was intriguing. Picking at 25 it's a whole different perspective. You have to identify a player.

All kind of draft experts have him rated high. The key will be what scouts think of him. I think Downs and Theinaman are legitimate but I'm not an expert. I use Draft Buzz as the measurement just because it's easier that way. Theinaman is early 2nd round rated and E M -Warren is 51. I'm waiting for the Dane Brugler guide. In a March 4th mock draft he had Thieneman at 18 and Warren at 30. He's pretty consistent. One pundit said he is a Brisker clone.

It's always nice to dream but he's costing more than than just 2 first round picks. The GB trade for Parsons is the floor.

I was trying to get more information on the arm length thing and saw where Matt Miller from ESPN sain no edge rusher drafted in the first round since 1999 had under 31" arms. The teams seemed to be united on arm length for edge players. Micah Parsons were 31 1/2" Bain is under 31".

I saw a podcast where they were talking about edge with short arms. There are no hall of famers edge that has short arms. Not my stat and I never checked that statement.

I didn't realize he was a T in college. He played center in high school. Him and Trey Juhn both played T in college. Trey did have 150 snaps at center last year. There's probably 12 draftable Cs in this years draft. BJ wants a smart center so I would expect the one we drive would have been interviewed. Hecht, Burton and now Parker are in that group.

That's a home run draft.

Up until this week, I didn't think CB was in play but if you can get a guy who plays NB, CB and S . I'm in. Treydan Stukes can do that with 4.33 speed. Doubt if he makes it to the first round but would be a great pick later.

Sign me up for a Bain Banger and Dillion Doer. Third would be Avil Reese.

I agree with almost everything you said but Turner has more upside than you suggested. He is a perfect fit for DAs scheme. Speed , length and a quickness. Also JJ is a dedicated hard worker and will get back to top 10 form at CB. Spot on with everything else.

I like both but if drafted in the second round. Zion is ranked middle round, Gabe about 10 spots lower. ( Draft buzz)They are similar but Zion is a better run defender but watching 3 games tape of both, l lean towards Gabe. That's a small sample size, I agree but Gabe being a former wrestling champion, he seems more physical to me. Production is similar, I'll let the scouts decide who have watched every snap they took in college. If they take one in the first, it could be TJ Parker that has more speed and big play abilities. He had 6 FFs in 2024. Personally I am now thinking they may go S in the first because DEs is a deeper class and have a better chance of getting a Zion or Gabe in the second. Ideal for me would be Theinaman/25 - Jacas/ 57 and Gracian Halton at 60. All the brass went to Oklahoma pro day, not sure who else they would have been interested in if not for Halton.

I agree with everything you said.

I saw where we scheduled a visit with Sam Hecht/O weC Kansas State University. I read that too. Rousher gave an Interview and that's what the journalist got out of it. With the top picks after you get the medicals,they have 99%of the information. IMO. No one has ever guessed right who Poles wants. Caleb was a no brainer but he surprises us with every draft. I like the ones they have brought in so far but misinformation is part of the process.

NFL TradeRumors seems to have the most up to date information. So far the people they have visits with, they are all day 3 projected picks. I would assume everyone they would take in the first 2 rounds already has done the major work on so these visits should be not top 100 players types and UDFAs .

Like AZ said, value should be related to contracts. Example: Edwards originally signed for a moderate contract and Edmunds got paid a fat contract. Looking at the time they were with the bears, Edwards was clearly more of a value because of the money when you could arguely agree that played similar. Whoever came up with the AV component, is there an explanation of the criteria they used?
