5th overall: Abdul Carter - EDGE - Penn St.
36th overall: Wyatt Milum - LT- West Virginia
70th overall: Kevin Winston Jr. - SAFETY - Penn St.
92nd overall: Donovan Jackson - RG - Ohio St.
105th overall: Jared Ivey - EDGE - Ole' Miss
128th overall: Jared Wilson - OC - Georgia
141st overall: Ty Robinson - DT - Nebraska
180th overall: Rylie Mills - DT - Notre Dame
192nd overall: Jaylin Noel - WR - Iowa St.
221st overall: R.J Harvey - RB - UCF

This ended up being my favorite class overall. The front four got four new rotational pieces, all of which, display excellent pass rushing ability along with really good size with room to grow. Carter, Ivey, Robinson and Mills are all bringing over a combined 33.5 sacks from their final season in college football. Carter with 12, Ivey with 7, Robinson with 7 and Mills with 7.5. This addresses one of the biggest needs, if not, the biggest need and issue this team had in all of 2024.

This also goes along with a 2nd year Maason Smith and an Arik Armstead that said he would be playing DT in 2025. Looking at the offensive line. Milum, Jackson and Wilson were added. Milum can play LT or potentially move to G. Jackson can play LT and LG. I would honestly move him to RG as a rookie. Wilson is a decent Center. Gives me a lot of breathing room with three new faces along the line at three key positions with some interchangeability.

That leaves me with Winston Jr. at safety, Noel at WR and Harvey at RB. Winston obviously has the size, but, coming off an injury. He's someone where you have to trust the tape form years past and his trajectory. Great open field tackler. Probably a great zone safety at the next level. Noel and Harvey are just highly, highly productive football players and fit needs and roles perfectly in my opinion.

This is the draft profile I'd like to see. We need big bodies on both sides of the ball. The trenches have been neglected since poopy face weaseled his way into the GM spot.

Not really, he just brought in the wrong ones.

I like it but I dont like it for our secondary.  No chance Jackson makes it to the 3rd with the way he has been playing.  I like Millum but I dont see him beating out Little for LG.  I hope we get 2 starters in this draft with the 1st 2 picks and with this draft, our top 2 picks neither would be starters.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. Great pass rushers are hard to find. The other options for Nre England would be one of the two highest rated Offensive Linemen- (Banks/Campbell) or McMillan. If I were the Patriots, I'd take Carter since his ceiling is higher than those other players. That would likely make the Jaguars pick either Will Johnson or Mason Graham. I'd be happy with either despite liking Carter slightly more.

Am I the only one nervous about a cb already having soft tissue injuries?

Nope. I have concerns there with him as well. That's why I keep harping on taking McMillan at WR there instead and figuring out the secondary a little bit later on. 

That's one credit I continue to give Baalke. He will inevitably find a good secondary player beyond RD1 in this draft. He's usually good for it. 

I would like to see him strike gold for the 2nd year in a row though at the WR position early.

Newp, and I'm even a big blue fan.

I normally do not do this till after some study and the combine. So these picks (done on PFF) are based upon rumor and the team colors. Note the linemen I chose actually played guard on the side I show in college.

Pick 5 - Mason Graham - Michigan - DL (stick him next to Maason with Hines-Allen and Walker on the ends)
Pick 36 - Jahdae Barron - Texas - CB
Pick 70 -Sebastian Castro - Iowa - S
Pick 92 - Tate Ratledge - Georgia - RG (played Right guard in College)
Pick 106 - Jarquez Hunter - Auburn - RB (if one Auburn RB is good could two be better?)
Pick 129 - Tyler Cooper - Minnesota - LG (played Left guard in College)
Pick 140 - Jonah Monheim - USC - C
Pick 180 - Keonn Sabb - Alabama - S
Pick 219 - Jaxson Dart - Mississippi - QB (guy reminded me of a young Josh Allen)

Dart in the 7th is crazy lol.  I think he goes in the first or 2nd.

The thought of New Megatron with New Jimmy while cranking the Tank and going Eatin makes me feel things. In my pants.

If Carter kills the combine I think he goes to the Pats.  I'd bet on that one.

I'd bet he's BAP, gonna have to pray they feel super compelled to protect Maye.

With Vrabel there? In a division where he has to see Josh Allen twice per season? Doubtful. He's probably leaning towards Carter or Hunter at the minimum. 

There's a lot of beef in this draft class along the offensive line with guys that have recently played at two different positions. I don't think you have to jump the gun early with this year's offensive line class. The top end guys are good, not great.

You're not drafting the next Tony Boselli or Jonathan Ogden in the top ten this year in my opinion if you lean towards Will Campbell or Kelvin Banks.

Hey, I thought so too. That's why I grabbed him there

I did say it was a prayer, but I've seen it mocked some. I'm anticipating the also perfectly fine choice between either Wolverine.

I also feel ether Wolverine would be perfectly fine pending Johnson's medical eval.

Or Graham. I don't know how I feel about Graham and Johnson at the moment. Graham doesn't move the needle for me, he doesn't jump off the stat sheet. There's no guarantee he takes that next step in the NFL. I don't want another oft injured CB playing alongside our currently oft injured CB.

I am at the point, where, if it's not Hunter, Carter or McMillan. I am probably entertaining any and all trade offers to move down a bit. Where I can justify landing an OG or OT while picking up maybe another 2nd RD pick and/or 3rd RD pick or a really good 2026 pick or picks. 

Would rather do that than gamble on a guy that doesn't have the production to match what I want or need out of a DT and a CB that is already bringing over soft tissue concerns.

If I could get Will Campbell or Kelvin Banks Jr. and then manage to get another EDGE and CB in RD2 or another OG/OT and a SS/FS I would be happier.
