DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2025 Draft Day Thread: Day Two

[bakes781]

Amos gone to the Commanders.

He was overrated IMO.

 

[dliverey44]

Damn, I was hoping for both Green and Bond in round 3.

 

[manxman2601]

Darius Alexander becomes interesting now. I wasn't sure about 38, but if he falls to 77 (assuming WR) at 69, I could live with that.

 

[Taxed in Maine]

It's like the WR Cult can't comprehend drafting players that can help prevent the other team from scoring...

 

[PYPER]

NE have the worst WR in the league... we have a young QB.... take a peak at what other franchises are giving their young QBs...

We had the worst WR in the league. We added Hollins and Diggs and have 3 young pups in Boutte, Polk, and Baker who could make significant steps forward. Boutte made big improvements from year one to year two. If Polk and Baker do the same, we might be ok.

Adding Thornton Jr. in the 4th would be a dream though. Fill in other needs at 69 and 77. Its not a bad idea. Could also trade down with one of those picks and pick up more 4th rounders.

 

[CantonJester]

That’s a straight up Ravens move right there. Character issues be damned.

That sound you may have heard off-mic was Justin Tucker exhaling.

6'5" and runs 4.3. On day three that's a gamble worth taking.

It's also clear that they couldn't be bothered to listen Vrabel in his early Press Conferences where he talked about having a strong run game. Which means having an upgraded O-line and RBs to take pressure off of Maye..


What else is clear is that most of them weren't around from 2001-2004 and don't understand the value of interchangeability at the WR position. But then., many back then complained about it as well, not realizing how hard it made it for the other team to cover the guys.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

5 more picks, would cost a 5th to trade up for noel here, he worth it?

 

[Schmo]

And monkey balls are not tasty....I've heard

Trust me, they taste like ****.

 

[manxman2601]

Omar Norman Lott is another Chiefs pick with injury concerns. They've either got a genius medical team or a bad one.

 

[stcjones]

Man…I’m getting nervous there won’t be a WR worth taking left in the 3rd

Agree and God forbid the Pats ever move up!

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Caleb has no excuses this year

He looked completely terrible when the Pats played the Bears last year. Granted they were on an interim HC, now our TE coach. But his turning into a success will be a complete reversal of what I saw last year, because many of the problems they had in that game were self inflicted by Caleb.

 

[manxman2601]

Trust me, they taste like ****.

There's a story there I suspect.

Interesting that he only averaged 1.5 catches per game in his college career.

 

[Schmo]

A few stories. That's why I can make the blanket statement.

 

[manxman2601]

Three more picks. Our favourite two WRs on the board.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

They’re now at the point in their dynasty where we were last decade, reaching for injured guys for their upside because of their draft position and because Mahomes covers up a lot. Will be interesting to see if it eventually catches up with them before they win another SB or two.
