Rumors now are Rodgers and GB relationship is much better than before so it's looking like he could return

Arizona will likely bring Green back and I don't see them giving up on the guy they just drafted in the 2nd round,  

Tennessee traded for JJ for a reason and I don't they are to concerned about getting a WR I the first when they want to run it down your throat with KH.

If all these teams take WRs then that will just mean another position with a 1st round grade will fall and we can double dip in the 3rd at WR if need be which will likely have some good value there also.


 Every year you say the same thing lol.  What ever players we talk about or like you say they are going to be gone and alot of them are always there lol.  Every year a few really good players fall, happens every single year and this year will be no different.

I didn't forget about Kelce. Pringle is an UFA as well and could very easily be upgraded. They need a possession receiver to keep the chains moving.

That's not what I'm hearing. Now, Rodgers is considering retirement as well. 

Green is old and Moore is no Christian Kirk. The fact remains that the Cardinals passing game has drastically declined in the past few games and it was a direct contributor to the losing streak they were in. They need more consistency from the WR group. 

You can try to run it down other teams throats all you want, but you still need to have decent receivers. I don't care how much they spent on Julio Jones, he's not getting separation and he is on an obvious decline. When he and A.J. Brown were both injured, the Titans had absolutely nothing at WR. They have to address WR, even if they are a run first team. They should address O-Line later in the draft, possibly on day 2, but I don't see an O-Linemen worthy of a late 1st round pick who should fall to them. 

Agreed. That's what we'd have to do. We obviously don't wanna reach for a WR in round 2, if the value isn't there. Just take the BAP. We're not gonna fill every need in this draft and free agency anyway. This team is at least 3 years away from being competitive no matter who we add. I wouldn't mind selecting a CB like Coby Bryant in round 2. He and Ahmad Gardner shut down every WR they faced this season and he won the Jim Thorpe Award as the best DB in college football. Adding him with Griffin and Campbell should at least stabilize the CB position for the next few years. 

If we then select a WR like Jalen Tolbert in the 3rd and Jalen Nailor in the 4th, I'd be very satisfied. That would give us two really good receivers with the ability to separate. I'd also definitely re-sign Chark as well and try to add Mike Williams in free agency, although I doubt he would come here. 

I just plan for the worst to happen. I'm conditioned to think that way as the longtime fan of a losing franchise. I plan for the worst and hopefully I'm wrong. By preparing for the worst, your never really disappointed.

It's so depressing that we don't even have 1 good receiver and teams like the Bengals, Cowboys and Broncos are 3 deep.

I'm never disappointed in whos available because players always fall and some of the guys we aways want is available.  I'm almost always disappointed in who we pick though. Bryant could easily go in the first

I agree. If he falls to #33 though, he would be very hard to pass up. He and Gardner are as close to lock down corners as you can get.

I do like both but I think for that nickle corner spot we need Trent McDduffie would be a great get there, like that swiss army knife we could move around. Would love Elam as well but I think he will be gone

The problem I have with McDuffie is who has he faced? Which great WR has he gone up against and shut down? Looking at who the Huskies have faced, I see most of their opponents having pretty pedestrian WR's. For me, it's hard to judge how good McDuffie is, when he didn't really go up against one of the top WR's in the NCAA.

Washington is always turning out good corners and good players on defense.   I get what youre saying but you have to look at the talent, he didnt make his schedule. You act like good players dont come out of the Pac 12.  I think he could thrive in the nickel role here with Shaq and Campbell on the outside.

Is there any team out there that we could trade back the #1 overall for 2 lower #1s? We could go WR with both.

These guys over at Drafttek have it as a poll question. Scroll down to the 1st pick where they have us at. I found the trade idea interesting but it just seems unlikely. 

https://www.drafttek.com/2022-NFL-Mock-D...ound-1.asp

They're thinking the Eagles could offer up picks 19, 20 & 52 for our 1st. I wouldn't hesitate if they offered that much in return. They would still have the 23rd overall pick on their end as well.

I would do that as well. Drake London and Nakobe Dean would be the 2 players I would target at 19 and 20

Nakobe Dean is a great player, but not for an NFL 3-4 scheme, imo. I believe he's too small. At only 6' 225 lbs, he looks more like a 4-3 MLB. For a 3-4 scheme, I'd prefer Devin Lloyd, Chad Muma, Damone Clark, Mike Rose or my sleeper, Troy Andersen. They have more of the size I'm looking for. If we were to move back to a 4-3 scheme, I'd be all over Dean.

Yeah I'm not to concerned with Dean's size, you don't need both MLBs to be 240+.  He's 6' his frame is thick and it's unknown what type of defense we will run

They're thinking they end up coveting a guy like Thibodeaux to help them out defensively. They don't have a great pusher off the edge this season and if you're going to keep pace with the Cowboys you're going to have to get after Prescott.

Hoping Prescott's career day against them last night gets them thinking even more about coming up to get him. I would take Burks at WR and Linderbaum at C with the 19th and 20th picks and then look to bolster the TE, RT, WR and ILB positions with a pair of picks in RD2 and RD3. The value is all there for those selections to add up.

Burks at WR
Linderbaum at C
Linder moved to RG

Draft either Wydermyer or Kolar at TE
Draft either Ross or Tolbert at WR
Draft Christian Harris or Chad Muma at LB
Draft Raimann or Lucas at T

No. Wasn't. Either way. They only have 29 sacks as a team. They want a pass rusher.

The thing is, if the Eagles keep those first round picks, they could use them to fill several defensive needs. If they trade, they will get one great pass rusher, but by keeping those first round picks, they might be able to get a DE like George Karlaftis, a LB like Nakobe Dean and a CB like Kaiir Elam. If those were guys they coveted, they might be able to get their defense back on track. By trading up, they would still have several needs to fill in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

True. I don't see any trades coming up. I was looking at some of Matt Corral's highlights today. Ole Miss's QB.

He's not a bad prospect. Has some good pocket awareness, escapability, pretty good arm and deep ball accuracy when the pocket is kept clean.

I see a bit of Jalen Hurts in his game.

I just took a look at Kenny Pickett's highlights out of Pitt as well. He's pretty interesting. His pocket awareness and ability to move, step up and slide is there.

My main concern. His deep throws tend to "hang" too much up in the air. He can get a little too stiff and comfortable. The plays he was making on the run at times were off his back foot. I could see a lot of that working against him in the NFL. He doesn't have a lot of zip on the ball. He can run though. Sneaky with it.

If I am being honest. I see him as a Daniel Jones type in the NFL on the wrong team. But, he could be a poor man's Big Ben on a decent team.

Saw some of Malik Willis' highlights out of Liberty. Meh. Poor man's RGIII. Not really impressed. A lot of the passes are all 1st read and out or he's taking off with it downfield.

Only hope is Carolina, Washington, Pittsburgh or Cleveland wanting to come up if they end up liking one of them in particular during the combine and overall process. I mention Cleveland because there's been reports of Mayfield potentially on his way out. He also hasn't lived up to the hype.

Egads that is falling waaaaaaay back. To fall that far, I'd want 19, 20, and next year's first at minimum.

I think I would do that trade.

That would give the Jags 19,20, 33, 51..... That's pretty great. They could double up at WR (London, Dotson, Jameson, Bell, Wilson, Olave) at 19 and 20. Then BAP 33 and 51.
