Obviously we now know what the team truly thinks of him because they went out and signed a 10 year veteran in Morse. Who honestly was middling by all accounts in Buffalo last year. 

That's why I think we should honestly keep his statements in mind. They said they needed to get better. They at least did that by getting Fortner's replacement. I just don't think they're done. Their prospect visits would indicate to me that they've identified players from this class at 17, 48, 96, 114 & 116 that are realistic options on their draft board. 

That group of five was bad in the finale. I keep thinking of that run stop at the goal line that got blown up. That had happened more than once in the game throughout the contest. We absolutely have to get better next week in the trenches or this team is doomed to fall short again.

I think our first couple picks will be players we haven't met with kinda like BB was saying.

Yeah. Wouldn't surprise me. I think we're sleeping on prospects like Graham Barton, Kamari Lassiter & Cooper Beebe and between the 1st and 2nd RD it wouldn't surprise me if they have their names called. 

I think we're a prime candidate for a trade down as well. 17 is a sweet spot for most teams after the top half of the draft begins to thin itself out and people start getting antsy anticipating a run at a certain position.

I think teams like Dallas, Green Bay & Buffalo should be on our radars going into next week as potential 1st RD swaps with us picking up an extra 2nd RD pick in the process potentially.
