Wut. Mitchell was always a 1st rd lock. He’s been a first rd player the whole time. He’s just moved up out of our reach

A "1st round lock" that even today, the most plugged in guy in the draft community (Daniel Jeremiah) has going 32nd?

I think it's very likely that he goes in the 1st round? But "lock"?

You do this shit EVERY year man. Every single year.

There is a building buzz with Texas WR Adonai Mitchell. After likely cementing himself as a first-rounder in Indy, one club told me: “He’s a future No. 1. Book it.”

Daniel Jeremiah doesn’t know shit. Look at this catastrophe of a mock. Levis at 4, Richardson down at 20, Musgrave and Benton in the 1st , Darnell Wright to us at 31.

This was the night before the draft last year

So we're just going to pretend that Levis going top 5 wasn't the draft community narrative/cosnesnus all the way up until draft day?

I guess we can't rely on anybody then. They all "don't know shit".

Oh but that's right, Jordan Schultz is somehow more plugged in than NFLN's leading draft analyst.

staylor26 · 03-20-2024, 04:17 PM

Even Schultz's report doesn't say he's a lock.

"Likely cementing himself..."

Like I said, he's very likely going in round 1. That's not the same thing as a "lock".

Just relax with the draft hyperbole for once.

We've been there for 3 weeks, man.

"I don't see X getting to us" has just been the order of things for a bit now. Sadly, it seems to have also infected the 2nd round now. 50 guys going in the 1st, 100 of them going in the 2nd.

Whatev. Draft's deep - we'll have guys worth taking. 1st round is likely to have slightly underwhelming options and the 2nd round will have 5 guys that we all think "Man, how lucky are we that this guy fell to us!"

Conversely guys that aren’t 1st rd talents get over drafted (EJ Manuel, Kenny Pickett, Cole Strange) and guys like Will Levis fall out of the first rd entirely.

Draft is a weird place with weird people. It’s not really surprising when you hear reports of GM’s scared of Mike Vrabel bc he’s a big man and not liking Will Levis bc he was a cocky kid with a big arm and sleeveless shirts made them uncomfortable.

If Harrison, Odunze, Nabers, Thomas, Mitchell and Worthy are all gone by 32 then it's down to Franklin, Coleman, Ladd or Leggett. Or could they be brave and draft a TE like Ja'tavion Sanders and try and get a WR later like Baker, Rice, Pearsall or Walker? If Sanders has the potential to be a Kelce replacement longterm then I say go for it.

If 6 WRs go in the first, there will likely be some serious talent dropping that will be mandatory to take. You won't have to reach.

They aren’t reaching for a tight end at 32. If there is a run on WRs then likely an OT falls to us or vice versa. Hopefully we get Morgan or even Guyton at 32. It’s more important to our offense than the #3 WR spot. There will be talent still at 64.

We're not likely to get a quality TE early in the near future. And with us playing lots of 12 and 13 personnel then it wouldn't be a big reach imo.

gordonelloyd · 03-20-2024, 11:50 PM

I agree. Getting a quality tight end should be a priority over WR if one falls to 32. It’s an eventual replacement for Kelce and a good additional receiver in the meantime.

If somehow we could move up enough to get a quality left tackle, that should be our top priority. But unless we get a number one for Sneed, which seems unlikely that isn’t going to happen.

Given how we got brown [and every day I keep thinking this was such a blessing at the price] I think we can leave getting another wide receiver to our second round pick, possibly moving up a little bit if necessary.

why?

TE is not a position where multiple guys go in the first every year.

It's also not a position where the best NFL TE's necessarily are first rounders anyway.

Kelce, Kittle, Gronk-none were first rounders.

I don't know if I'd call Sanders a 'reach', but I don't know that I'd go that high either.
