But would it be a huge shock if the plan is Laviska Shenault competing against some Claypool-esque reclamation project?

 

Maybe Claypool himself?

I’m not as excited about Walker as I am about the previous picks, but he is absolutely a swing for the fences.  First team All-SEC opinion 2023, really didn’t play well last year - hope it was the nagging injuries.  Could be a home run or a strike out.

Definitely. But maybe his downsides can be shielded / negated with our heavy rotation and he plays a select 20 snaps a game.?

Man I don't know. Their plan last year was Claypool competing against MVS. I thought after trading for Cooper they had learned from their mistake. But would it be a huge shock if the plan is Laviska Shenault competing against some Claypool-esque reclamation project? They have told us and continue to tell us they just don't value the position.

My hope is we did a ton of work on Bond and think he’ll be there later and feel comfortable taking him.  
 

I don’t think that’s the case.. but I can hope. 

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Take Sanders, a punter, and a project safety and call it a day. 

Seriously we need a cheap backup QB. Sanders might be great and you can trade him later.

KC seems to win Super Bowls without to tier WR's

Because we never fixed the defense

Don’t think that is a good reason

And the WRs and TEs are being carried by Josh. Shakir has potential to be excellent but beyond him, there's a bunch of mediocrity. Perhaps I'm being slightly harsh on Palmer but I can't see many teams looking at the room and wanting any of them, possibly Khalil aside.

Of Johnny Walker Blue, no doubt...

In 2024 they traded up with us for a first round wr, in 2023 and 2022 they drafted a WR in the second. While having a hall of fame TE

I really hate that I always have to be this guy, but why does this regime continue to undervalue WR more than any other position? They have spent none of their top picks giving some help to their MVP. It's so on brand it's almost parody.

 

Maybe I'm wrong about Royals and/or Horton and they'll still be on the board at the end of R5. I'll hope so.

It's like they say "Josh we gave you all this money, now go do it on your own"   it's ridiculous. 

[balln]

Are we ok at linebacker? Like Super Bowl level? Bernard I can live with. I love Dorian as a blitzer and LOS guy. Milano is washed I think. Not counting on him
 

safety? Hell no.

I’m listening to his interview on wgr. His voice doesn’t sound fat enough. You know how some people just sound fat like they have a mouthful at all times.

Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown and Juju Smith Schuster is more proven than Shakir, Coleman, Palmer and Samuel. 
 

They also have had Kelce, who up until last year, changes everything.  We’ve never had that guy.  Diggs was not even that. 

[SoonerBillsFan]

I like the player, he fills a need, but WR right now is a bigger need.

 

Trade the 6ths and the 7th we picked up,get back in the 4th and get a WR.

I just think they feel it’s not as much of a need. 
 

Shakir, Palmer, Coleman, Samuel are locks. 
 

They love Shavers, who could replace Mack Hollins as a WR5 who plays specials. Plus they have Laviska Shenault who has a good chance of making the squad as a kick returner with the new rules. 
 

And again, I don’t feel this way, but I get it from their perspective that there is maybe 1-2 spots available and that guy probably has to play special teams. 

[jcamm1966]

Let it play out it's not even may, darn let it play out there are UDF there explode on the scene , draft is a 50/50 gamble

[JROC INTEL]

Maybe they plan to go big on WR next year and figure this guy can be 1st round talent eventually where as with a WR you kind of know what you’re getting. Trade up big next year for an elite WR?

Sawyer is just waiting for his local radio gig in Columbus. It’s his destiny. 

[Maine-iac]

How are we even going to carry this many DT's into the regular season?  How many DL players do we have now?
