I think our first 3 picks should be, Run stuffing DT, DE, WR. Would almost be cruel to draft anything else.

I think we can sign a pretty good starting offensive guard in free agency at a decent price.

With our first I’d love Mason Graham or Abdul Carter. With the 2nd Tre Harris would be a steal and fit well w Olave and Shaheed
With the 3rd I’d look for best DL or a safety if you really like someone

We just need talent at any position. We’re years away from competing for anything meaningful and we don’t exactly have a talented or young roster. It really doesn’t matter as we’re in a rebuild. Just get somebody who will be playing at a high level and on this team in 4-5 years.

Feel like we should build around our OL, if healthy we have 2 good tackles, a great center, a decent guard,.. we need another guard. The better this unit gets it can make our whole team better.

Beyond that I pretty much agree we don’t have much to build upon,, maybe our corners. Davis and Werner but Davis is old and Werner hurt a lot.

Fix the defense this year. Work on the offense after 2025 season. Assuming we move on from Carr at that point, it’s a hell of a lot easier to develop a rookie/young QB when you have a solid defense keeping you in games when said QB is struggling.

Dream draft would be McMillian in the first. The big receiver to pair with Olave and Shaheed.

Kenneth Grant in the 2nd to stuff the run.

And whatever the best guard on the board is in the 3rd. Or LSUs tightend if he’s there.

I’m thinking the opposite. I’d go mostly offense this year. See if Carr can really produce with weapons and protection. Try to at least put up a shite ton of points to keep us entertained if we losing.

Might have a chance if we don’t have to stop the run and just have to pass rush.

Anything but qb. Rattler is the foundation

1st Rnd: Abdul Carter, James Pearce Jr., Mykel Williams, or Nic Scourton. I’m tired of QBs having all day to throw. Breese needs someone to help him get pressure on the QB.

2nd Rnd: OG like Tyler Booker, Donovan Jackson or Tate Ratledge. Or DT like Deone Walker or Walter Nolan. We need to get better up the middle.

3rd Rnd: BPA. Maybe a big WR, see if one of the really good TEs falls to you. If not, more OL or DL wouldn’t be a disappointment either.

We fricking suck at drafting lineman. Out of the last 10 drafts we’ve picked Olave and Lattimore that weren’t lineman. We fricking suck. 8 out of 10 shitty players on the line were wasted.

There’s no young, premium players in this roster. There’s a ton of need

OL and WR depth ruined the season, I’d start there

Fuaga is a good young, premium player. I'm sure you'd say rattler is better though.

Right. As bad as the IOL is, WR is in even worst shape. Shaheed is the only certain & he will be coming off of a full meniscus rebuild in his knee. Olave's football future is in doubt.

Fuaga is good and young, yes.

I never said Rattler was good. I just know a Carr stan does not have a fair grasp on reality

Best player available at all 3. We're so devoid of talent we need starters at all 3 picks. If Mickey is hiring the coach, dealing with the roster, and making the picks, I don't expect positive results.
