Does Etienne signing pretty much make Tate the favorite now at 8?

Alot of mock drafts will be changing that first round prediction now. Could create a really good trade back opportunity if Love is there at 8. Theres alot of boards that have him as the best player in this draft.

Wandale Robinson just left the giants for Tennessee. I think they’re likely a landing spot for him

And with the Chiefs signing Walker, where does that leave Love?

I think I know where it leaves Kamara...

no... the emphasis on filling holes on offense signals, to me, we are likely going with the best defensive player on the board at 8... possibly even trading up for one of the elites (Bailey, Reese, or Styles)

I’d actually say defense is WAY more likely at 8.


Could see Downs, Styles, Bain or Delane.

2 of the top 4 paid positions are WR and DE/Edge. With DE/Edge being number 2 I think we go in that direction. Maybe a 2nd round WR.

if we cant get elite edge, we need to look at trading down.

would love to gather more 2nd and 3rd rounders in this draft

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if they added Doubs AND Njoku


Then just decided that the first 3 picks would be defense. I really like Jacob Rodriguez but he’s projected 2nd round…when they would take a WR

Nailed it. Styles, Bain or Delane will be the pick.

You take bain if he is there over tate.

I'd also take Caleb downs over tate.

That's your answer. Great signing. Way to go CKM and FO

No. The only way we went offense at #8 is Love.

We just spent $33mil on offense and Olave is going to be atleast another $30. We are for sure spending the remaining money/ best picks on defense. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't go WR until Rd 3.
