    A guy I really like in the 2nd rd is the A&M linebacker Cooper.

    I would add Legette to the wr list.

    Your FA guys, a long with retaining Cashman, Rankins, Schultz, Singletary, etc...

    Draft

    Legette
    Cooper
    Stover
    Use both 4ths to trade up for the best RB available.

    I thought your package to move up and draft Verse was instead of a pass catcher in the first.

    Yep I am. Nick needs to go all in. Young, cheap, franchise QB is time to spend, spend, spend. Hand out some big 3 year deals. You could easily be a SB contender next year.

    Burrow may be hurt. That will help the Browns playoff chances if so.

    Browns have a pretty easy schedule as does Pittsburg. We can’t have a let down against the likes of Arizona.

    1. I'm hoping the Kylar Murray effect will keep this trap from springing.

    Texans need to stop giving up big plays.

    Make Kyler pick you apart throw after throw.

    None of these broken coverage bombs we saw against the Bengals.

    Kyler was lucky to not get picked several times in his first game back.

    I’m scared of his running. I love Anderson and Greenard but they often overrun the play. We could give up some big plays on busted protections by the Cardinals.

    CJ seems to watch a good deal of Colllege ball based on his Game day appliance. If there is a worthy WR pick with our first or second round selection CJ will let it be known who he likes.

    He has a case to be the #1 overall pick.

    I see Worthy as a late 1st, early 2nd kinda guy. He probably will get pushed down because of the wr depth in this draft class.

    Would like one of Egbuka, AD Mitchell (Texas), Brian Thomas (LSU), or Xavier Legette (S Car) in the first. Then pick up TreVeyon Henderson (OSU) in the second.

    Yep - if we get a WR, we want a true X with size and speed. There’s 4-5 players that for the profile who can be game changers

    MHJ (NA)
    Coleman - athletic, highlight reel, great set of hands. Great chance to be a game changer next level. True X.
    Ozunde - burner, quick, makes catches happen with inaccurate throws. Great size. True X.
    Nabers - most explosive plays this year, huge YAC. 80%+ of receptions are first down for touchdown. Not tall but right at 6ft. Ability to get open and create after catch. Great pace and change. Probably a play making Z (not your usual zone beater), similar to a Davante.
    Thomas - athletic, big, strong, long, great bend and can run. Needs to work on routes. X potential.
    Franklin - 6’3, a little light, burner, makes difficult catches, great body control, route running a work in progress has potential to work with.

    Day twos:
    McConkey - great route runner, Z type, smaller.
    Worthy - size is an issue, 165 wringing wet. Has some speed.
    Leggett - great size and has speed.

    RB class is pretty poor.

    Brooks was going high top of day two, no injured.

    the two guys are Henderson (been very banged up but when he’s on the field OSU looks different. Benson has great lateral cuts, speed and balance. Both of the guys are good on swings and wheels for receiving. Day 2?

    rest will likely just be role player/committee types. Edwards, Corum, Allen.

    Would like to re-sign our guys for reasonable coin (Greenard, Rankins, Cashman, Griffin and Nelson maybe extend Nico) and then go get Patrick Queen and Jeremy Chinn (nickel before replacing Ward).

    In the draft I like WR in the 1st (Thomas, Mitchell, Egbuka, Legette in that order), TreVeyon Henderson in the 2nd (with CJs input). Trade up for Tvondre Sweat and let's roll.

    I don’t know how high Sweat goes but I’m all for it. Dude is a wrecking ball in the middle.
