DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2025 Draft Thread: Day One

[lancerman]

I’m sorry are you talking about Mel Kiper’s number 1 player in the draft? That Shedeur Sanders?

Who the hell is Mel Kiper

 

[TommyD4207]

While in TEN Vrabel drafted the textbook recent example of a college LT who had to kick inside to guard as a first round pick. He also took another first round OL who is widely regarded as in the discussion for biggest bust of all time.

Your last post reads like you think Vrabel has some stellar track record everyone should trust. He doesn’t. Not saying he wasn’t a good hire, but some on this board act like he’s a deity which is absurd. It’s all based on liking him for his career here. He has a mixed history in the NFL as a coach/personnel guy.

Vrabel didn't draft anyone in Tennessee

Zabel to Seahawks. No surprise there. Think every mock draft had him going there.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

He sucked, couldn't block an Ant with those TRex Stubs.
Failure for sure, hope we don't draft him.

 

[BaconGrundleCandy]

Really dude? Well I guess we’ll see

it was just a joke brother. I understand tensions are high but I thought it was rather obvious bc of all the talk surrounding Campbell, his position and such.

I'm rooting for Campbell as much as anyone and think he could be a top 15ish tackle if all goes right. We'll see but have a good night

I just swallowed a jellybean whole on accident, whoops. Thought I would share.

I would have done the Heimlich maneuver, but my arms are too short. Sorry...

I knew this next guy wouldn't make it past 20.

Apparently guard is the most coveted position in the NFL this year

Adds an interesting context to those calling Campbell a guard.

Hopefully we don't have to make that comparison but if we do we have the comps he needs to be better than.

Fine. But that’s all the more reason why it’s silly to act like no one should question any of his draft decisions. That guy posted like Vrabel has some amazing track record of evaluating OL that everyone should trust. If you want to say he had a role in TEN picks, then it’s a negative. And if you say he didn’t, then there’s no track record people should trust. Either way, the post I responded to was silly with its Vrabel undying praise and belief. Totally unfounded by either way.

I was being sarcastic DLiv...

 

[Give Kraft A Hand]

Welp that pick sucked for the Pats. Emeka would have been great here

 

[Ross12]

Bucs get a steal. How many WRs do they freakin need?

 

[Since1960]

I would. I doubt he slides to 38

If he did slide to #38 he would have had to break his leg this afternoon. If we want him, we’d best plan on working to get him…

 

[varjao]

Damn

 

[PatriotSpy]

Another toy for Mayfield.

 

[Give Kraft A Hand]

Wondering if they trade up for Golden now.

 

[Peachhead]

I don't want to jinx us, but WR Matthew Golden is dropping a little. He might look good in a Pats uniform.

Maybe we can hire them to pick a couple for us next year….
