2026 Draft: EDGE

I am starting to think that if we want a day one of the season Edge with upside that we need to take him in the 1st round or trade up into the 2nd. I think that DDS, Jacas, Young, Howell, Mesidor and Lawrence are all gone in the top 50. The plan might be start Ponder and Jones until Landry is ready and then Ponder and Swinson will be backups along with a later round rook working in. I like Landry and Jones as starters (BIG IF) Landry can give what he gave before he got hurt.
I don't think that's the case regarding the Edges. There are WR, TE, CB. and O-line that will be taken to push some of those guys down.. I wouldn't be surprised if 2-3 of them fall into the 3rd round. It happens every year.
 
I do like the idea of double dipping at EDGE in this draft. Keyron Crawford is my favourite EDGE 2 after taking someone in the first but that might be too ambitious. Trey Moore is my second favourite for the double dip.

Here's a brief breakdown of him as a pass rusher.

 
Double dipping at Edge. Double Dipping at TE. Double Dipping at LB.. I'm good with all that.

Just don't double dip the chip!
 
Yeah. but we need a CB, S, OT, OG and DT as well.. And you know the kind of conniption fit the "oooo.. Shiny" brigade would have if we didn't draft a WR. They'd be screaming for Vrabel's head..
Well unless one falls into their laps I would pass. Same with RB.
