re: Would you trade with the Giants for pick 5?

Posted by Tigerjim09 on 4/15/26 at 12:00 pm to Burt Macklin

Depends on the price I guess, but I’m assuming it would at least be a 2nd round pick. I’d rather have Tyson and a 2nd than any of those guys in the top 7 in your scenario.

I’d be a big fan of any of those picks so I hope this turns out to be true

I don’t get why people dislike this pick so much. I understand the injury concerns, but imo Tyson is the only receiver in this draft with true superstar potential. I think Tate and Lemon will both be very good pros, but Tyson’s ceiling is easily the highest. Injuries are not nearly as predictable as some of you think they are, and if they are comfortable with his physical I would have zero issue taking him at 8.

re: How good is Ohtani?

Posted by Tigerjim09 on 4/11/26 at 6:00 pm to Hondo Blacksheep

It depends on how you define being the greatest player of all time. In my opinion being the greatest is about your accomplishments relative to your era. The best player is just how good of a player you actually are. In my opinion Ohtani is the best player of all time, but probably not the greatest of all time at this point in his career.

re: I'm beginning to think Delane is the best pick. Makes a lot of sense and checks the box.

Posted by Tigerjim09 on 3/28/26 at 10:25 pm to Lsujacket66

I agree with you, although I want a receiver I would prefer Downs over Delane. Downs is going to be a great player

Delane would be a fine pick, but I think we should go receiver and disagree about Tate. A 4.53 is not a slow time, and he doesn't look slow on his tape at all so I am really not concerned about it. Here are some other notable wide receiver 40 times:
JSN - 4.52
Puka Nacua - 4.57
Ceedee Lamb - 4.50
AJ Brown - 4.49
Mike Evans - 4.53
Davante Adams - 4.56
Cooper Kupp - 4.62
Amon Ra St. Brown - 4.61

A 4.53 forty is plenty fast enough play receiver in the NFL. Adding a player the caliber of Tate would make this offense a whole lot more dangerous, and would make Shough's life a lot easier.

Loomis and Ireland have already talked about how Staley’s scheme allows them to take a wider net of players

Yes a wider net of players such as smaller speed rushers which is not Bain. There is a difference between a player’s archetype and a player’s measurements. Bain is a power rusher with short arms. Mickey has said before he tries to avoid outliers, which Bain is, in early rounds.

I don't think we can risk an outlier player in the top 10

The people suggesting that we pick Bain clearly have not followed Mickey's drafts very closely. It is extremely rare for him to draft someone without prototypical measurements high in the draft. The last 3 edge rushers that we drafted with high round picks were Foskey, Turner, and Davenport.

Foskey: 6'5 280 34' arms
Turner: 6'6 270 35' arms
Davenport: 6'6 265 33 5/8' arma
Bain: 6'2 263 30 7/8 inch arms

I get that we are running a different style of defense now but I don't see Mickey deviating from his philosophy for Bain.

more than one wide receiving option.

Really think we should be looking to go WR at 8. The contracts these receivers are getting are insane, Alec Pierce who will never be a number 1 got $30 million. We have the opportunity to pair a cheap high end receiver prospect with Olave and have an elite receiver tandem for the next 4-5 years with Shough and Etienne in the backfield.

I watched his highlights. Even in his highlights his tackling wasn’t anything great.. not really physical. Not feeling it

Completely agree, I think he’s a great athlete who is an okay football player. Would be upset if we picked him at 8, especially given that he is an off ball linebacker

There are so many ways you could go with this team. I would wait for now, but I personally think at some point a decision will have to be made between Queen and Zion. Their games don't mesh together at all and the net rating when they are on the floor together is horrible. You can't have two players that are viewed as franchise cornerstones who can't play together.

They also need to find a way to address the center position. I like some of the flashes that Missi and Matkovic have shown, but I think having a bonafide starter to put next to Queen would make a huge difference. I also think if you are able to get a true starting center then you can move one of Missi/Matkovic for shooting.

re: Kenyon Sadiq - TE- Oregon

Posted by Tigerjim09 on 3/5/26 at 12:53 pm to jkylejohnson

I actually think Sadiq would be a really fun weapon in Moore's offense, but I think 8 is too high for him. Mickey would likely never do this, but if we traded down to the mid-teens and picked him I wouldn't be upset at all.

If you sign Etienne and draft one of the receivers at 8 this offense could be really dangerous next season

I think picking Love is a dumbass pick for example. Bijan Robinson is way more talented than he is, but what does Atlanta have to show for right now?

You could point to an example of a good player whose team hasn’t made the playoffs at almost any position. Jahmyr Gibbs got taken extremely high in the draft and has been the best offensive player for one of the best teams in the league for multiple years now.
I also don’t agree that Bijan is way more talented than Love. Either way Love is considered a better prospect than Gibbs was and we can see how he has panned out. We can also point to our head coach who won a Super Bowl just 2 years ago with an offense centered around Saquon Barkley. You think giving our young quarterback an elite back who can both improve the rushing attack and is a great pass catcher is a dumbass move?

every once in awhile you just take the best player on the board.

I agree with this, I just don’t think Styles will be the best player on the board. Most athletic maybe, but his production was good not great. If you are picking the best football player on the board then you should be picking Downs, Reese, Love, or Lemon. Taking an off ball linebacker at 8 because he had a great combine just doesn’t seem like a smart decision to me. I think Styles will be a good player, but not good enough to justify using the 8th pick on a relatively low value position.
