    Precisely what I’m thinking. Hopefully he can be salvaged as a guard when Seamolu leaves. I still have hope for Fautanu

    Forgot about Hollin Pierce honestly. I initially thought he was already gone. Had him as a Top 100 player. That said, Howard or McCord should be the top 2 contestants.

    That will be a huge miss if that happens. We cannot keep having high draft pick misses. It kills a team for years. Miss on QB and it can be a decade.

    It wasn’t hard to grasp for many but the media and podcasters had a list of reasons other than the truth:
    Collusion
    Blackballed
    Deion
    Racism
    Just a poop full of poop

    I think it could have been easily managed with a Sanders drafted in the 4th round.

    I also think dad Sanders would have been handled well. I think Tomlin could have done it better than anyone in this league.

    So yeah it's honestly think they missed there.

    That's right. Starkey (On The Fan) played a clip from a talk show that addressed Deion as saying there are teams he DIDN'T want to draft Shedeur. That's just one example of the Narcissistic arrogance that flows through both father and son.

    This!!


    That said, Broderick NEEDS to apply himself more this time around. He has to. Otherwise, it isn't going to work. In Broderick's defense, Tomlin has been screwing up Offensive Line development circa 2021.


    He also deserves blame for this.

    So is Metcalf the “Second Round” pick for 2025?

    That just popped up in the tv interview now.

    Sanders
    The demolition bros:
    Pickens
    Metcalf
    All in the same daycare? Coach T would control all of it?

    There is no way his tape says 5th rd talent. Players drop for character concerns all the time.

    He was definitely sent a humbling message, just from dropping I mean, not that there was any sort of collusion going on.

    There’s also an intriguing RT prospect out of Wisconsin that would be a good use of a 7th round pick

    Man I just texted my older brother who we got so far and said I liked the draft picks because we needed DL help badly and he texted me back same head coach so we are going nowhere. He's 75 and wants so badly to see them get to the promised land one more time.

    Jack Nelson is still available?!


    He is someone who I thought would be gone by the Top 75. Dude is way too talented to be available.

    Good decision by them....Their defense have been often bad in the playoffs for them despite to have often good stats in the regular season

    Yup. That one annoyed me, but I can't say I'm surprised at a Tomlin team passing on a turnover-prone quarterback.

    Tomlin struggles in player development… this is why I say, it doesn’t matter who we draft at qb, as long as T is there we won’t win nothing of value.
    As Metalicca would say:
    Sad But True

    No, but the tape said his on-field value minus off-field drama risk = 5th round. What I have a problem with is the narrative out there that he was somehow wronged by the teams who needed QBs. He and his dad devalued him with arrogance, which raises legitimate concerns over who the person is and whether it’s worth the risk of bringing him into their locker room.
