You're good boss.  That wasn't directed at you, as much as everyone.  And you told me about your trip.  All good

Very sorry. Was out running errands. Didn’t think for a second that I’d be up so quickly. I was hoping to watch a few more vids today as well to have a better idea who I wanted. 
 

so I’ll say this. I haven’t done a ton of research on OL because I thought the Bills were set. But I’m under the impression that the packers need some help there. I really wanted to choose differently but after the videos I’ve seen I changed my mind. 
 

With the 25th pick, the Green Bay Packers select OT, Amarius Mims Georgia. 
 

The Tampa Bay Bucs and @H2o are on the clock.

Will someone with more knowledge about the OL tell me I made a good choice? lol. I wanted some weapons for Love first but thought against it. Was deciding between Mims and Jordan Morgan, Arizona. Actually like him a little more for now. But keep seeing that he’s potentially a OG at the next level. And couldn’t pass up Mims measurables. The guys just a monster. Hoping he stays healthy and puts it all together at the next level.

I think Morgan is a legit NFL left tackle. I love his feet. So nimble and quick. He is a plug and play 10 year starter IMO. However, you took Mims.... who is definitely more boom or bust but his ceiling is as high as any tackle in this class. If he hits he is a perennial all pro type. So I can't hate on that pick. 

 

EDIT: but we know the Packers are picking a defensive player 😂. It's just what they do. First round picks are for QBs and defenders.

That’s what I was thinking. Based on the vids I watched on both I really liked the look of Morgan more. I was drafting with some hope that Mims booms rather than busts. 

[section122]

I'm pretty sure @GunnerBill has brought this point up before but there have been no wrs picked since the top 4 went off the board.  Now perhaps that is because Bills fans want them to be their for the upcoming pick but I think it's realistic that after those 4 there is a lull and gap before the next wr is picked.  

 

Through 25 picks the breakdown is:

5 ots

4 qbs and wrs

3 dt, edge, and cb

1 te, og, and c

0 safety, lb, or rb

 

through 14 picks there were 12 offensive and 2 defensive players

the next 11 went 4 offensive and 7 defensive.

Thought for sure Arnold was coming off the board there.  They love their first round dbs lol.

Seems about right, except that in the real draft, I expect Penix and/or Nix to be off the board by now. 

[H2o]

With the 26th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select, Graham Barton, Tackle, Duke University. 

 

The knee injuries that forced Ryan Jensen into retirement left a massive hole in our OL. Robert Hainsey filled in, but he really needs to be at one of the G positions. Barton has positional versatility, but is widely seen as the 2nd best Center prospect in this draft outside of JPJ. His mean streak on the field, especially in the run game, will have many people thinking Jensen is still manning the middle of the Bucs OL. 

 

@gonzo1105 and the Arizona Cardinals are on the clock. 

[gonzo1105]

WITH THE 27th PICK IN THE 2024 NFL DRAFT, THE ARIZONA CARDINALS SELECT: 

 

TERRION ARNOLD CB UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA

 

The Cardinals can’t believe that Arnold falls all the way to 27 in the draft. Arnold presents too good of value to pass up as well as filling a need in the Arizona secondary. Arnold is not a finished product as he has only played the position for a short time and has safety flex. Arnold had great ball production and is athletic enough to matchup in both man and zone. Arizona walks away with Harrison and Arnold in the first round 

 

@Virgil and the Poll for the Bills is on the clock

He was the other guy I was seriously considering. Chose to lean towards the trenches instead.

I have Arnold as 1B to Quinyon Mitchell. I would take Mitchell first if both are available but I believe both are top 20 picks.

Agreed I don't think Arnold makes it anywhere this deep. 

 

I think he would go over Dejean but I think the cincy gm wanted to make sure he wasn't an option for the Bills lol s/

Admittedly I haven’t looked at CB too much either. I saw him there and see all the boards having him going anywhere from the mid 1st to end of the 1st rd. Not knowing as much about Green Bay’s roster I wasn’t sure if we needed a DB or not. I knew losing Douglas was a hole, but we made the playoffs as we were. I’m fully on a mission of getting Love protection and weapons at this point. Giving him everything I can to help him succeed. There’s a few others I want that I believe are BPA. At this spot I didn’t have anyone that really peaked me. We’ll see in the next 2 rounds.

Mine was more tongue in cheek as they draft a ton of first round dbs, if it was real life I think they would have a hard time saying no to the value though.

Might be. And you’re probably right. But I’m at the same point with Love that I feel with Allen and the Bills. I want to surround my QB of the figure with as much help as possible. 

[Thurman#1]

Adonai or Chop. Can't make up my mind between the two. If that means I don't get a vote, fair enough.

I was going to take Arnold at 23 with the Vikes, but fell asleep at the wheel this morning.

I think that is a legit thought. But the Pack will go defense. 12 times in the last 13 years.

[Whkfc]

Well this couldn't have fallen worse for Buffalo all 3 edge rushers the 2 dts and the top 4 wrs are gone that with all the tackles and qb is pretty crazy. The only pick left is Xavier Leggette or Ladd Mckonky (?sp). I know Ladd has met with the Bills more than once to this point.

It’s a good thing for packers fans that IM RUNNING THE SHOW now.
