2024 Draft

[Milanos Milano]

Because it’s never to early to talk about improving the team. 
 

With Davis in a contract year, I don’t see how we bring him back unless he has a good year this year. He hasn’t shown me enough to think he warrants it anyways. 
 

Right now IMO  RT, and WR #2 are the biggest priorities. 
 

I want Keon Coleman and Jack Nelson (LT/RT flexibility) with the 1st 2 picks.

Will Coleman really be worthy of the first overall pick???

[GunnerBill]

Too early for me to say who but tackle and receiver are the two candidates for round 1 IMO. 

 

But the tackle must be able to play left. And a receiver must be capable of being a #1 beyond Stef's time.

[Airseven]

Please crunch the numbers for a new LT, C, RT, WR2, WR3, MLB, CB1, FS, and SS.

Lol I expect us to be around 28ish, and I hope we can land him.

RT, C, and MLB.  Strange, I feel like I said this 5 months ago.....

 

I didn't specify C, but I did say 3 O-Lineman

Jack Nelson can play both left and projects to play RT. 
 

Keon Coleman is a Moss esque receiver, so I’d say he has potential to be a number 1.

We need a replacement for Davis. #2 WR is a priority. 

This guy can move for a big guy. Perfect fit for Allen. Can catch jump balls from Allenvre.

Nobody is forcing you to come inside the thread. We know where our weaknesses are, so might as well start looking for those pieces. 

[Dr.Sack]

RT, MLB, WR, CB, DT.

I am not disagreeing I am just not expressing an opinion on specific names at this stage. I am aware of Nelson, less so of Coleman. But I only commit to names once I have watched guys.

I know you like the draft analysis stuff, so it’s ok take your time. I always enjoy looking for ways to get better, and that often times means through the draft. 
Coleman is a transfer from Mich St, and someone I’ve had my eye on now due to his combination of size and separation ability. His jump ball skills impress me the most, because that is exactly what Allen needs for his playing style. Someone Allenvre can lean on for his slinging tendencies.

I don't agree it's a priority.  That belongs to oline alone.  You protect Josh he can make filet mignon with chopped liver. Josh is a qB talent that can make  wrs easily look like stars if they have some talent and don't choke in spotlight. There are plenty of players that have that potential. He made Davis look like an elite wr.  He can make others look that good too if he can stand in the pocketball day long.

 

And a top notch oline can allow for a ny qb to be more successful than they would be under duress.  So you are more protected if Josh misses some time if say he's benchedcduevto possible concussion.  Josh plays with reckless abandon at times so could easily get dingedcto missing part of a game. I rather have the oline to prevent that from becoming a problem.

I’m not convinced Allen can turn crap into gold. He’s never done that yet. It wasn’t until Diggs came along that he got better. If Diggs ever is out for an extended period of time, we are in trouble. 
Allen isn’t Mahomes and Brady that can win with subpar WRs, mainly because he can’t read defenses as well as those two can. 
Allen needs a Moss type WR opposite of Diggs to where he can just sling it and let the WR go up and get it.

I'm not saying he can turn crap into gold.  I never label Davis as crap I don't think he has the same qualities as Diggs but even Knox is now considered a  decent te in nfl when he got notes in college at all. 

 

And without a good oline we see what happens with Allen just slinging the ball out there.   Give him protection he can be more selective where he throwsxthe ball cause he can go thru his reads more to see the best open option.

After Monday night's game, Marvin Harrison Jr is well within reach

Davis is crap, he will never be a #2 here. He’s healthy and still nothing.

No way, because Harrison Jr is going top 3. No way we suck bad enough to land him.

You have something against Davis and I don't agree hevhas had good games good throws he bailed out Josh on some of his early games where he built trust with Allen that means alot.

 

Kinds think he is considered by this staff as the # 2 whether you like it or not.  I don't want Josh slinging the ball to a guy that out jumps dbs as his primary skillset.  I want someone Josh trusts.  He does trust  Davis whether u like it or not.  Even Diggs says Davis is a quality wr and I don't think Diggs says things if he doesn't believe it. He doesn't seem to try to  just do lip service.

I don’t want to hear it. Brady always got the ball out fast, all the good QBs get it out fast. Allen is never going to be able to find the quick read. It’s why he always scrambles to buy more time for stuff to open up. He needs a solid #2 that can be a big body jump baller.

I do have something against Davis. He stinks. He rarely helps Allen when in need, he drops to many passes to earn trust when Diggs is covered. Allen is clearly flustered. I’m not saying Oline isn’t a problem still, it is. But with the playing style that Josh has, he needs a legit #2 WR that can take over games at times.

DT and S also will be big needs (I think Oliver is the only DT signed for next season and Hyde is a free agent after this season).
