DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2025 Draft Thread: Day One

Status
Not open for further replies.
In all seriousness, Allen will be an Awesome 3rd down back!! Should be available late too.

In fact 3 ‘Cuse players I wouldn’t mind making their way to Foxboro:

Allen
Orande Gaston, Jr.
Kyle McCord
McCord is awful.
 
It’s always been irrelevant. It’s meaningless. Should we not draft someone because of their shoe size? No unibrows because none have ever been all pro?

So in other words. "Trust me bro"
 
If the Bears are hellbent on Jeanty, I'm happy to trade down to 10, collect another second round pick, and draft Simmons (I believe he's an equal to/possibly better than prospect than Campbell) at 10. I'm also not averse to double dipping on the OL early.
10 is a good spot, because one of Campbell, Membou, Banks will be there. Simmons is a reach at 10 but might not last to 20 so who knows.
 
It’s true, tackle is an endangered species. I bet a guy like Ersery ends up going in the 20s
OT is scarce in FA so the draft is all that's left to find one.

The Pats phone lines should burning up with inquiries.
 
So? Why does that matter? Explain to me how wingspan affects a LT? What does a LT do that requires wingspan and makes it a vital thing?
I'm genuinely confused why further explanation is needed. I will counter with a question: at what point would wingspan deter you from drafting Campbell at 4OA? Shortest of any OT since 1999 doesn't do it for ya, what if his wingspan was 75"? 72"? 65"? You have to draw the line somewhere.
 
It will be interesting to keep an eye on Dart.

I knew that Dan Jones was a bum years ago.
The other aspect with Dart is that he still needs some development, so it makes sense for them to have those vet QBs on the roster, and it also makes it easier for the staff to buy themselves another year.
 
I was SHOCKED the GMen gave him that contract.
This goes to show HOW DIFFICULT it is to get a Franchise QB
I have a feeling that the Bears QB is another bust.
 
Yeah...No on that teenager girlfriend ****.

Thanks
 
10 is a good spot, because one of Campbell, Membou, Banks will be there. Simmons is a reach at 10 but might not last to 20 so who knows.
If he was healthy, I doubt Simmons at 10 would be considered a reach. That's why I don't mind taking a calculated gamble on him, provided the Pats double dip at the position (whether it's a trade or a pick).
 
In all seriousness, Allen will be an Awesome 3rd down back!! Should be available late too.

He would. I just wish he was faster because it looks like the team are looking for speed rather than just a 3rd down back.
 
All that should matter for Will Campbell is the length of his ring finger compared to his index finger.

If he was healthy, there’s a good chance he’s the top tackle drafted.
