2026 Draft: EDGE

Max Lineanchor, trade up for Jacas and Hurst in the 3rd and I am not even watching the rest of the draft. I will be like Tom Brady and my balls will be deflated. LMAO. Too Soon?

Maybe I'm just sad but day three is my favourite.
 
This will be the best day 3 of all time. I cannot remember a draft class like this one.

Iheanachor/Miller, DDS/Jacas, Sam Roush/Ted Hurst days 1 and 2. Wish I could find a way to snag Treydan Stukes, Chris Bell, Caleb Banks, Jake Golday, Kyle Louis and Keyron Crawford, but don't want to seem greedy.

Then go wild day 3: Stribling, Delp, Elams-Orr, Payne, Demmings, Prysock, Van den Berg, Konga, Heidenreich, Morris, Trost, Randall, Jeffersonetc.

It actually is mine as well. That is where your depth is built and a team normally is as good as your depth. We got very lucky with injuries last year. We had some big injuries for a few weeks but overall we were a healthy team.

Love Eli Heidenreich some team is going get a gem who can be a very good gadget player.
 
Same 10 yard split as Malachi Lawrence. Only Cashius Howell and Arvell Reese were better by 1/100th.



 
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he makes it into the 1st round. I have read that his talent is capped, implying that he is as good as he will ever be is silly. I think that is some people's way of saying he has a high floor and lower ceiling

Personally as we're building the roster, I'm fine with high floor prospects if I have to sacrifice on ceiling a little, particularly when you're picking 31. Obviously you still want a ceiling but at this stage of the build, you don't have to reach for the moon. do that when you've got 40 quality high floor prospects to support the risk.
 
If the Pats have to choose between Iheanachor or Jacas, Vrabel is going to have a tough decision to make.

I think if all goes perfectly for each player I think that Lawrence will have the statistically better career (sacks, TFLs) than Jacas. As we know that rarely happens that everything is perfect, so I tend to lean toward the higher floor player. But that floor ceiling talk is all subjective, I remember Mac jones being talked about as a high floor and I just thought he was a product of having a better college team and not really a high floor when most teams are equal.

I was hooked on Jacas the first time I watched him I love his physical style and relentless motor. I would be happy if they took Jacas in the 1st but I am starting to lean OT as a greater impact long term.

I think I'm at:

I want

Mesidor
Jacas

I'm fine with

Miller/Iheanachor (but left wondering how they solve EDGE)
Malachi Lawrence
TJ Parker
Omar Cooper

I could live with (but be a bit disappointed)

Zion Young
R Mason Thomas
Cashius Howell
KC Concepcion
Denzel Boston
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren

Wildcards I like but not sure how to stack them

Jacob Rodriguez (I want him but it does make the EDGE/RT problem harder to fix).
Kayden Mcdonald

If we're trading for AJ Brown, I don't want the WRs.
 
100% this



Really hoping that Jacas ran the 3Cone and Shuttle..


My dream draft is the Pats somehow getting Iheanachor, Jacas, Rodriguez, Kacmarek, and Sobkowicz.. Anything else would be icing on the cake..

I haven't heard anything so I doubt it. Same with the jumps.

As for your wish list, agreed although I think 3 is impossible if getting 1 & 2.
