    He’s not really a 4-3 system guy. He plays in space. Mr Ryan clogs the line without spreading them out. I’d go Ringo and Roschon. Time to become a running team with our young QB.

    I'd trade back one of these two fourth rounders into the 120-130 range and turn one of the 190-200 picks into a 150-160 pick.We will get a good slot CB at that 120 range with what is left on the board.

    AT Perry is the last of my players left. Good hands, not great. Pretty good run blocking WR.

    I agree. He's 6'1 280lbs. Doesn't have the length or flexibility to play on the Edge. Yet he's too small to play inside. He would not be an every down player. He would become a situational pass rusher from the inside.

    Would like to target Andrew Vorhees with one of these picks. Immediate OG starter in 2024 if Green doesn't figure it out. Save the RB pick for one of the 6th rounders, there are plenty of good ones still left. As mentioned by others, give Dawand Jones a chance to push Tytus Howard out at minimal draft cost.

    The LB/TE runs were tough to watch. Not our biggest needs by any stretch, but really don't love many players left at those spots. Would be fine punting at these spots until the last 6th rounder or final pick. Still some soliid pass rushing talent, great CBs, RB depth, and some under the radar OL that we have met with in hopes of building OL depth either through a late pick or UDFA signings.

    They are not trading back this year because they have too many picks. Ideally, you only want to draft about 8 players the way rookie contracts are setup.

    Vorhees has a torn ACL and won't play at all in 2023.

    So what do we need now that we got our WR and C positions filled today?

    The trade back would be to move up with one or two of the 6th rounders. No extra picks in this circumstance. Move back in 4th, turn 1 or 2 6ths into 5ths.

    could see them dealing one of those 4ths for a 3rd next year since we lost one in the trade with Arizona

    Not sure why Ringo is still around. If he’s there, you’ve got to take him I’d think.
