DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION Official 2025 Draft Day Thread: Day Two

[fnordcircle]

Wow.. pats took 3 people I wanted Campbell, Henderson and Wilson....hope it pans out...

If not we all know who to blame, Toofy.

 

[The Gr8est]

There goes Xavier Watts to the Falcons

I didn’t know the Falcons had any picks left.

Is it just me or does it already feel this draft is in the 4th or 5th round already, but it is really still the 3rd.?

 

[mgteich]

Yesssssssssssss
Jared Wilson

a good pick at 77

 

[Schmo]

This is turning out to be the McDaniels draft so far.

Defensive players were willing to come here in FA. This is what we have to do in order to build around Maye.

How much of Sanders’ drop is due to Deion?

99%

 

[scott99]

I like the pick, top rated Center in the draft. We got two linemen who are athletic (good combines). Their combine numbers, especially Campbell, they had high RAS numbers.

My only concern is that with the trade backs, they passed up so much talent. Could’ve double dipped and grabbed Noel, who I like a smidge more than Williams.

 

[Since1960]

So he can be a better return man than that bum Connolly.

How long are his arms?!

How much of Sanders’ drop is due to Deion?

I think this whole thing is a myth i don't think NFL teams care about you having some legendary father with a big mouth if you can play.

If someone thought he could be a good starting QB they wouldn't care about any of that, he's a slower pocket passer with limited athletic ability who teams feel might of already maxed out his ceiling because of that in a league where all the advantages are now for a mobile QB.

I mean, Deion isn't even that bad really, he's not said anything overly controversial and Shedeur is a bit ****y but has no real bad history except for that.

Wolf's press conference just got bumped to 11:20pm

Is Wilson going to beat out Bradbury as a rook? Not going to pretend like I know his game.

Maybe? Not week 1 I think. But Bradbury was a short term fix whether it was all of this year or part of it. They at least have a plan for when he's gone next year. I don't know enough about Wilson to say for sure... but if he is as NFL ready as i supsect... Bradbury might be a back up faster than we suspect.

 

[NashuaPats]

The Raiders fans in attendance put these guys from Dodgeball to shame.

 

[Grogan14]

Major traffic jam at center/ guard

4 possile center now; Bradbury Andrews Wilson Strange

? Andrews and Strange to guard
Release Sow

 

[DaBruinz]

Wilson pick effectively means that at least 3 of the picks of Strange, Robinson, Sow and Jake Andrews are just wasted.

They know more than me.

I have no idea.

Wolf took most of these guys except for Strange.

You dont expend a 3rd on a Center unless you feel players like Andrews and Strange aren't going to cut it

Yes, you do expend a 3rd on a CENTER if you want that Center to become the Starter in 2026 and have him replace Bradbury.

I don't believe it says anything about Strange as he's the incumbent at LG.

Andrews is a wild-card. He's a BB pick that missed all of last season. He'll be fighting for a roster spot, but that should be expected.

Sow is going to be fighting for a roster spot. The regression last year and addition of both Layden Robinson in the draft and Tyrese Robinson as a SFA didn't help.

Layden Robinson was a waste of a pick. Guy was considered a tweener with no real position. He played last year because of injuries on the O-line.. That's it.. If there hadn't been the injuries, he doesn't see the field at all.

 

[TommyD4207]

I think Wilson was recruited as a guard to GA…his size indicates he could do it. But of he’s better than the dude they signed, so be it.

Maybe onwenus on the way out who knows

 

[upstater1]

The worst thing you can do is keep a failed pick on the team because you spent a lot of capital on them in the past. It’s a sunk cost. If Vrabel thinks they can’t do the job, you need to get rid of them ASAP regardless of what was spent on them in the past. What you do need to do is analyze why they were picked, what went wrong, and make corrections as needed including replacing the guys in charge if it’s a consistent issue.

I understand that. Im just saying this must mean they've already made the determination.

But on who?

Jake Andrews for sure. But one or two of Sow, Robinson and Strange are on the outs. Maybe even Caeden Wallace.

 

[Hugepatsfan]

Certainly, but projecting that they do, offense defense and special teams are all looking very solid.

Every team looks solid if you assume all their picks pan out

 

[fnordcircle]

Like the old saying goes - "Never draft an OL who can't fist you into submission."
