People said the same thing last year. Seems like every year people think “this is a weak draft” and turns out last years draft produced some very high level players in every round. A lot of really good players.

If Bain is still on the board by the time Washington picks the Chiefs will trade up and take him...

Faulk is a freak and is going to be a really good player in the nfl. Should he be picked at 2? I don’t think so. Should he be in play at 8? He absolutely should considering we have a massive need coming up at the 5 tech.

My dog brother - I respectfully disagree. I’ve watched quite a few games of Bailey and Faulk (and Bain too).

Sure Faulk may have some untappped potential ; but he’s not in the same tier or category of football player as Bailey or Bain. I may be naive - but I don’t think there is even a small chance he is drafted ahead of either.

I think Bain is gone before we pick. I like Bailey a lot but a 250 pound DE isn’t really what we’re looking for or will draft. Faulk imo has a lot of traits Jordan did coming out. Untapped potential as a pass rusher, a complete stud agains the run. Large and extremely physical and impossible to move off the line. He’s your ideal 5 tech

I would take Delane in the 1st to secure our lockdown corner. Take a Guard in the 2nd which they will have some very good ones there.

The exact edge you want in a 34.

Overton fits the "Big Human" mould of Cam Jordan that our Mickey loves. 6-5, 295 lb monster

So a 5 tech, not an edge.

Need another big OL prospect IMO

Need to protect our QB.

We don’t run a traditional 3-4. I really like Bailey but he is undersized to be put opposite of Young. The need on the line is at the nose and the 5. Unless you’re planning on putting Bresee at the 5 which i think is a bad idea then Bailey doesn’t fit what we need.

Taking Delane while we have one above average pass rusher does not make sense.

There is zero chance the Saint come out of this draft without adding offensive weapon(s) for Shough early on.

This one, I kept trading back to get more and earlier picks.

This one was with no trades.

I’d take either since we have so many needs. But I have to admit that the first one adds some massive human beings on both sides of the ball and gives us really good value and depth.
