2026 Draft: Safety

[manxman2601]

I've been mocking in the 4th. That might be too low?

I don't think so. Safeties are a lower priority and this is a strong safety class. Whether he falls to the end of the fourth is another matter.

@manxman2601 - I know that Stukes is your binkie.. I haven't studied him at all. Was he the play-caller for the secondary for Arizona in a similar way that McCourty was for the Pats?

I don't know about that, but he was a 2-time captain. My guess is he or Woodson could take on that role.

I don't know if I will ever get over the Pats passing on Cooper DeJean.

Thankfully I wasn’t here for that one.

I wasn't either. It still drove a stake through my heart.

Do you think that Stukes could be a S/CB4 for the Pats? Kinda like people envisioned Isaiah Bolden before his injuries?

I think he should be a starting safety next to Woodson. Next option is a big nickel TE killer and at worst, a backup NCB/safety who has the size and athleticism to be a backup outside corner too. The only position in the secondary I'd be cautious on is outside starting CB.

A Safety that could cover a TE or RB out of the back-field would be a god send.. LOL

It was brutal. Also passed on B Fiske, to make things worse.

Passed on DeJean twice. I won't say where the second stake went.

He's going to go before the Pats have a chance to snag him.. Unfortunately.

 

[mayoclinic]

Agreed.

I've had Thieneman as a 1st round pick and on my short list since last April. Have assumed for months that he will be out of range.

I'm currently mocking him to the Rams at 13. Thieneman and Trent McDuffie would give a lot of versatility.

I love Dillon Thieneman.

But I think I love Treydan Stukes even more.

Maybe the Rams will take Stukes at #13.

Don't put that out into the universe!

My eyes were drawn to Stukes but I shouldn't forget Wheatley. Perhaps a bit too similar to Woodson rather than a compliment to him, but Wheatley is one of those 'just does things right' guys I'm always drawn to.
