***2024 NFL Draft Rounds 2-3***
|
What we need to do is draft all skill players. Then on Sundays we can watch them get their butts handed to them and beat up/injured by the teams that drafted well in the trenches.
A new broom always sweeps clean.

They just need to make sure Fortner is no longer the backup to Morse today. Failing that, they need to make sure Fortner is roiding up with an untraceable roid.

Should have invested 48 in the Oline. If we cannot keep TL clean, nothing else we’ve done will matter. And I LOVE first round pick. This OLine has sucked donkey balls for years and they keep trying to fix it on the cheap, if at all. Teams typically only keep two backup inside offensive linemen. If we draft one and have Tugboat for the other, that's two even assuming we cut Fortner. Even our backup tackles, Little and Hance, have guard experience for emergency depth. I don't see us taking more than 1 pure IOL early on Day 3. If we were to do something, you maybe take 1 IOL and then take 1 OT who can potentially also play guard. That scenario could make sense.

I hope we don't take a running back in the fourth round, but I would be fine with one in the 5th-7th round. If you look at our 53 man roster, I don't see a lot of positions where late round draft picks would have a good chance of making the team. However, running back is one of them. Teams typically keep 4 running backs. Because of injuries and needs at other positions, the Jaguars let their 4th running back (Hasty) go mid-season and haven't replaced him. They basically were using Snoop on their practice squad as their fourth running back, but even he's gone too. A depth pick at running back today does actually make quite a bit of sense. I am also one who would like to see a pure power back on this team for those short yardage situations.

If not and you draft two IOL, you now have three IOL on the 53 man roster. You theoretically could do it, but that's a lot. We show less advertisements to registered users.

As such, cutting them doesn't open up a position for someone else. Just to be clear, if no injuries, you are advocating keeping 3 interior offensive linemen on the 53 man roster (2 rookies and Tugboat)? If not, which one are you cutting?

Only if they are good enough though, If we dont get the guys im not. If we could get McCormick and Van Pran I would be good with keeping 3 interior backups. Can I see the projected 53 roster you speak of? |
