DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION 2026 NFL Draft: Day 2

Just looked at the clip on Gabe and liked what I saw. He has a nice burst off the edge. He can put his hand in the dirt and rush like a LB from 2 pts. But most importantly he can set the edge and be a 3 down player down the road. I get people getting fired up for guys like RMasom, and Cassius. They both have explosive speed and bend and will test pass protectors. However, they both are currently liabilities in the run game and thus would be one trip ponies. At least in their first few years in the league. Gabe has some power and heft and at 265 be effective on inside loops and setting the edge.

I think this kind of versatility makes him the better pick over those 2. The only question is, did we give up too much to move up. Seems like those in the know think it wasn't a good deal for us but was fair by whatever metrics draftniks use to assess trades. TE is clearly the next choice. Though the small school S that a lot of people had going in the first, WAS pretty tempting.

Hurst and Bell still there. This might warrant a trade up.

I was one of the few who were NOT in on Roush.. Delp and then Kacmarek were my 3rd/5th round picks for TE.

HOLY SH!T.....We actually agree on something. I want no part of Roush. His ceiling is pretty low. Just a jag type.

Of course, now I need to question if I'm mistaken. Can I ask you a serious question? Has there ever been a single time in your life where you were right about anything?
