    Enough of Dan Campbell has probably rubbed off on him, to the point where he won't just be some Norv Turner type who can call plays but can't lead a room.

    The weird Kevin Warren shit is my only hangup there. Otherwise I think they're set up to win pretty quickly.

    I don't think that's a fair characterization for all of them, but it does ring true for a lot of the speed rush specialists. I also think there is an argument that Will Johnson would have a better impact on our pass rush than James Pearce Jr. And as the league is rediscovering the running game, it might be hard for a guy like Pearce to be on the field all the time.

    Not sure if this is true, but does it feel like there are more of these 6'2" to 6'4" 250 lb guys than there have been in years past?

    I still think they need to HAMMER the defensive line positions.


    The Panthers have had someone named LaBryan Ray play nearly 1,000 snaps over the last two years. I've never seen that guy make a single impact play. Not once. That's inexcusable negligence of a position group.

    So you'd be good with Kenneth Grant at #8?

    Hoping some team gets desperate enough to trade up to 8 for Jalen Milroe.
    Saints might want to grab a QB.

    A man can hope

    The Titans are making noises like they will pick Hunter or Carter. I think it's more likely that one of the top QBs slides out of the top ten than it is for three to be taken there.

    We are not going to get Carter, Hunter, Graham, McMillan, or Johnson. We're picking right where a run on Tackles should start though, so maybe we can get someone like San Francisco or Seattle to trade up so they can take their pick.

    NE should take a tackle before they get their young QB killed

    I think they go WR or CB first, none of the tackles are worth the #4 overall pick.

    True

    They are in a spot to trade down.

    I don't see anyone wanting to trade all the way up to 3, but maybe 8 is less costly.

    anyway, on to the combine, haha
