Every player would give their left nut to come play for us. That is assuming they are pretty set for life as too money.

He is, but I don't see any way he isn't back on another deal, even if just one year. He learned our offense, does he really wanna go anywhere else on a one-year deal?
He'd have to absolutely crush it in the playoffs to get something long term. |

I think the top of the class is pretty ordinary. If you took Harrison or Nabers out of last year's class, I think you'd have something pretty similar to the top 3-5 in this year's class. But I think there's a more substantial fall off the top of the class than in years past. Gimme Egbuka!

I think, for the most part, you get 2 'grades' on a draft class. How strong it is through the first round (i.e. how many 'true first rounders' are there? 15? 18? 22? This year's looking more like 15) and then how strong is it through the first two days (i.e. roughly the top 100). And I think both are reasonable ways to view a draft. And oftentimes a super strong top of the class can inflate the entire strength of the first round because you'll see guys who or 'normal' top 10 picks end up sliding down to 15ish due to the high end top of the class. Which then pushes the middle down, etc... and the next thing you know you're sitting at 24 and there are 'true first round talents' sitting there still. That just seems pretty unlikely this season because A) the top of the class isn't super strong and B) the depth of the first round talent isn't very good.

“Arch Manning and Ryan Williams will make the 2026 class legendary!” I see this shit all the time on Twitter already. People just look forward. And even if it’s not a great class so what? 2013 was god awful and we got Kelce. 2023 was not looked at as a good WR class and we got Rice. Always good talent there.

By this point last season, we saw Rice getting better week over week and were dumbfounded by why Reid wasn't getting him more involved in the offense. With Worthy, we're a little annoyed by him getting missed on a couple makeable shot plays, but mostly we're seeing about what we thought we might. He's probably not gonna break out this season. He'll contribute but nobody thinks he's gonna do what Rice did last year (right?). And without a #1 or even a guy who could play like a #1 for long stretches, we're left with assembling a similar room to the 2022 team. You look for niche guys that can fill roles. We didn't have a possession guy. We needed one. Now we have one. We have a deep guy. We still don't have an intermediate guy like Hollywood. I'd like to get that done and Johnson/Slayton appear to be the best bets there.

But even on highlight tapes, he's not creating separation. He's finding soft spots in the zone, making really nice body control catches and/or taking advantage of broken coverage. And again - he can get production doing nothing BUT that. I'd still like someone like Slayton who can simply create some space for himself. Those are guys you have to keep an eye on in man and if nothing else can create a little more room for the bigger guys like Kelce/Hop to find some space or, more critically, make life a little easier for Worthy. It would just be such a nice addition.
