Downs was my pick but I like Styles more than the other talked about choices. A little Chase Young in him tho, more raw ability than true skill and instincts. So talented however that the floor may be pretty high for off ball LB compared to past 1st rd picks. I like that he previously played safety. Worry if he has the drive & instincts to be a star. Not the tackles you expect. I expect him to be good in coverage in time.

No receivers have been picked since 47.

Your starting slot receiver.

You get a slot receiver and you get a slot receiver and you get a slot receiver. They better hope Aiuyk can play well and be healthy or have another plan in mind. At least Williams can actually run routes and has good hands. He played hurt last season and his quarterback was terrible.

Yup they need Aiyuk badly. It's going to happen eventually, but until then, the WR room looks pretty wack.

Or maybe they think Treylon Burks will put it together?

They also brought Dyami Brown back. Ultimately one of these draft picks (McCaffrey, Lane, Williams) needs to hit or Terry need to go back to 2024 form. Or the Commander may need to back to the draft again next year.

The ravens need a C and so do we but they might be a good trade partner in the fifth they have 3 later picks in the 160-180 range. They could move up

So in terms of stick and pick fantastic pick he was consensus 80-90 great work getting him in the 5th.

But a trade happened one pick later and I wish we had done that too .

I’m so sick of drafting slot receivers. Dude was always injured at Clemson and we had a shot to get Haulcy there. It’s Newton/Cooper Dejean all over again. Peters is a clown outside of the first round. There are two better receivers than him on Clemson’s current roster. :lol:

Athan
Kaliakmanis

Had the best year of his life last year and it was above mid I guess. 3k yards 20 TDs 7 int 63 qbr

Funny little fact he had like -20 rushing yards but still had 4 TDs. I can't imagine he wouldn't have been an udfa and you could have got a safety.

I like him as a back up options but there were better picks

It doesn’t matter. RG2 will get hurt again. He’s still built like a tennis player. In a blowout loss to Seattle, on the read option, he didn’t hand it off, tried to play super man and got his arm twisted like a pretzel. No self preservation instincts. Super hero complex. Chest like a champ chicken. It’s an unfortunate combination.
