Vele seems more like a Michael Thomas possession guy. Slants and comebacks and high balls. Think we need a crafty open in the zone / YAC guy like Lemon (not for his draft capital) or Bernard. Maybe Sarratt that guy too.

Really like Sarratt but think 40 might be early.

Edit: maybe not

Mickey is MO is to add pieces in free agency so that we’re not forced to draft position. It’s one of the reasons why we end up with head scratcher “ best player available” picks rather than just saying that we need a cornerback and drafting one early early, for example. I’d love a splashy IOL free agent so our first few picks can go defense or offensive playmaker

Faulk worries me. Having done no research, superficially he comes off as a "prototype" edge who hasn't produced

Agree. Give me the dude getting nitpicked by experts while blowing up offensive backfields. I remember when Terrell Suggs was too small and ran a bad 40. We took Johnathan Sullivan five picks before him.

Bain is clearly a guy that takes stretches off, but when the spotlight is on, he can turn it on like a switch. I think that’s the risk you take with him. Not sure if it’s a matter of maturity or motivation or leadership holding him accountable. But in the playoffs, he has been possessed, and he has wrecked shite. If he gave the same effort through the middle of the season, he’d be a no doubt top five guy.

Olave and Vele have injury concerns.

Then you definitely don’t spend #8 on another WR with injury concerns…

RB group is loaded. Any of those top 6 could have a role here at the right price.

Hope we can pick one of them up and don’t overextend in the draft.

Bailey, Downs, or Bain round 1

Neither of the WRs are clearcut 1s and there’s good depth in the class to find help later on.

Yall need to realize that in most cases it’s not the kids running the show anymore.

It’s slimy agents who have zero school loyalty or friendships they’ve developed at camps over the years or perspectives on NFL development upside or thoughts on what type of offense would be fun to play in.

Everyone’s had advisors in the past, but now that this money printing factory is legal, it’s shady agent uncle on steroids, greed distilled that’s quickly replacing the spirit and local loyalty and relationships that hallmarked the last 75 years of college football.

It sucks. We’re all going to watch it still, but I must admit that I haven’t felt as great about the wins or as bad about the losses the last couple years. Something’s missing.

Bain was dominant. Best player tonight. We’d be lucky to get him. Hopefully there’s a run on QBs and WRs and he slips.

Downs wouldn’t be a terrible consolation prize. Could be the thumper to Sanker’s ranger.

OT Mauliuga was great too. He’s a pro bowl guard some day. Early or mid teens he’s a steal.

Really unimpressed with the OSU LBs. Theyre fast and athletic but play a softer finesse game. Got run over tonight. They probably project well to NFL but not sure if they’re dog enough.

Here’s some of Ward’s math… 59% completion rate and a 3-13 record. Give me Shough every day of the week.
