I'm a bit surprised by a few. I'm wondering who you have on a list who you aren't considering because you feel they'll go far too high.

Landon Jackson has come a long way since that bag drill video

Just to kind of chime in as always... here's my feeling

OT Kelvin Banks Jr., Texas
OT Josh Conerly Jr., Oregon
OT Aireontae Ersery, Minnesota

DE Nic Scourton, Texas A&M
DE Landon Jackson, Arkansas
DE JT Tuimoloau, Ohio State
DE Jack Sawyer, Ohio State

DT Derrick Harmon, Oregon
DT Kenneth Grant, Michigan
DT Tyleik Williams, Ohio State

CB Jahdae Barron, Texas
CB Azareye'h Thomas, Florida State



Probably too high but on the radar:
OT Josh Simmons, Ohio State
DE Shemar Stewart, Texas A&M
DE Mykel Williams, Georgia

Guys I can't help but keep an eye on:
WR Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State
WR Luther Burden III, Missouri
WR Matthew Golden, Texas
TE Mason Taylor, LSU
RB Omarion Hampton, North Carolina

I like Harmon a ton but since DeCosta seems to read my mind every year, I'm sure he'll end up a Raven. :-)

Banks, Barron, Grant, Simmons, Williams, and Egbuka are all guys I left off because I don't think they'll be available.

Had Burden and Hampton on there, but I removed them until the Chiefs fill more needs in FA. I don't think they'll take a WR, TE, or RB unless they unexpectedly sign more guys than we expect.

I think this will be the year to trade back. I think most of these guys like Harmon, Stewart and Nolen will be gone.

The players from 20-50 will all be the same grade. This may be the draft to trade down either from 31 or from the Titans pick to acquire more assets.

I’ve read this for seemingly everybody: there will be many good first contract and good players worth second contracts throughout rd 5.

Think of guys like Jaylen Watson. I think those kind of good players will be available throughout the meat of this draft.

I think this is a terrible idea. The quality of player at 31 will be better than it has maybe any other year with us picking that late, and now we're going to trade back for a measly 4th?

Veach has done way better trading up than staying put or trading down.

Yeah he won’t do it for 31 which is why I listed the Titans pick. I would like to trade down a few spots from 66 to get another mid rd pick.

I guess that's the gamble - snag a guy at 31 you "kinda" like, only to see him turn into a star and have that fifth year option on him.

It won’t happen bc it isn’t Veach’s style, but a Bills like trade back 4 spots would not be bad at all if we got a 4th or 5th.

It depends on what’s there. But I think it should absolutely be an option in this draft.

If it is with aQB needy team looking to get that 5th year option to get Dart out Milroe I think we could squeeze the 4th and 5th round picks in it.

Why the fuck would we give up a potential 5th year option just for a mid day 3 pick?!?

Just for perspective, the 5th year option for McDuffie is 13.6 million and for Karlaftis is 15.2 million.
