Love the first nugget. Those guys will have the biggest impact on the '26 team. Pass rushers are a premium position, so theyll always provide premium value into the future.
While the same can be said of a DT to am extent, amd McDonald is a good player, i just dont see the need or room for immediate impact. Behind Barmore and Williams, there is still quality talent and depth. Durden, Farmer, Gregory, and Taylor is probably too many bodies already. I dont think a role specific type to replace Tonga is needed in the 1st round.
I understand Barmore has some room to be let go after this year. But we spend so much time talking about future needs that may not be needs, and looking to replace good players, currently on the roster, and in their prime. I dont think the current roster is in good enough position to keep looking thay far ahead, when there are issues staring you in the face right now.
To me, Rd1 should only be edge, OT, or WR(to a lesser extent if Brown is coming). Premium positions that if the player hits, you have major value on your hand. Anything else, a trade down should be the option. You might still get an edge or OT, but it at least gives you extra ammo to address other spots or to move around. Then get your OG, DT, or LB.
