    I like the players we’ve drafted. Just seems like everyone was a slight reach, but honestly a lot of predraft rankings have been wrong about mid and late round prospects

    Eagles went to the Super Bowl with their current draft strategy.

    The people who are overly concerned with the opinions of draftniks remind me of the JJ Watt "pizza boy" BS.

    How many times have draft crushes busted while no name guys thrived?

    Who, besides me and CJ Stroud, thought that Tank Dell was going to be as amazing as he was his rookie season?

    Eagles draft is the best in the league so far.

    Pats have had a damn good draft too.

    Stop it. Tank was unanimous around here.
    You weren’t even the first to want him.

    The Texans are SB contenders this year because of their draft strategy.

    I'm not a big Stover guy personally, but after the 1st and 2nd rounds, you draft TE with the expectation that they don't play a featured role until Year 3 due to the extreme learning curve, which meshes with when they may want to move on from Schultz given his dead cap is just a 2.5 million bonus if he is cut pre-June 1 2026.

    ESPN had Fisher ranked higher than his draft pick, and Stover seems to be universally seen as a good value pick. Agreed overall with this take, though. Not huge reaches, but they're not getting steals either based on media and analyst projections.

    Washington’s is good. But Daniels is an overdraft.

    Yep - if you know it’s your guy you go get him, don’t get cute waiting around.

    All teams draft boards are completely different and do not necessarily follow the concensus media rankings. Especially as you get further down the draft.

    I'm trusting the process here!

    Denver has two picks almost back-to-back coming up. Wonder if they might grab Rattler too? Vegas might anticipate and try to jump them

    I think that’s fair. Fisher was higher on ESPN than others I believe.
    Like I said, I like our picks

    Yep. Can’t get mad at them going and getting their guy.
    I do wish they would have gone after DeJean. But I do like Lassiter and Bullock

    First of all, yes I was.

    Secondly, there's a reason he fell to the 3rd round and many considered him a reach even then. There's a reason when I drafted him in fantasy football the automated draft grade called it an F pick.

    He might have had more support around here in particular due to his Houston ties, but he was VERY much underrated....which was my point. If you went by what a lot of talking heads said, you would have been crying about that draft pick just like several others.
