Maybe we trade up and get him.Freeling has basically no chance of falling to 21, Bleeder. Good chance he goes top-10, very, VERY likely he goes top 15.

I hope we trade back collect some more pics…and then select the true nose tackle Hunter with our first pick, either late first run or early second round..
I think we could risk not missing out on him based on what I’m reading as far as draft projections..
However, this kid is the best player at his position in the draft which is nose tackle.
Let’s get the best player at his position in college football and also finally get a true nose tackle to work the middle of our defensive line in our 34 alignment.
The more the better I believe…We already have 12 picks, how many do you think we need?
12 rookies would be 23% of the roster. Looking at the roster below, there are probably 44 "locks" or close to locks on the roster already. At most there are 9 spots left. I suppose you can cut some rookies, but I think they make the moves to get the guys they want and not just stack picks.The more the better I believe…
The main reason I said this, is I believe we could still select our player we need by trading back slightly and pick up another selection for this year‘s draft, which could potentially allow us to bundle pics to move up further in the second or early third.
They can also use the extra pick next year if they wish..
I’m a firm believer that the NFL draft is all about percentages when it comes to selecting players that can contribute this year and down the road… the more pics equates to more contributors..
Rudy and Wilson could get shuffled out and that would expand to 11. I agree if they give them another season then yeah 9. If you trade up in 1 and 2 that could take you down to 10 picks. Trade one away for next years draft and then 9 is the sweet spot.12 rookies would be 23% of the roster.

Tells me if they want they can get increased value while still getting a round pick higher for next season. It is doable provided there is buyers of course.
Uhuh I”ll have you know the right poster could acquire two first round picks after a trade deadline.That is the right combination, especially the “next year’s pick” collection. We need to focus somewhat on acquiring picks for next year’s draft.
We ended up with a lot of picks for this draft by using the thinking of this is a quality QB class. That assumption has now moved onto next year’s draft. I still think we need to use a pick (any of the 3-3rd rnd picks) for a QB. Then try to trade a third for next year 2nd round pick.
I know this trade business is all contigent on getting a trade partner, it’s not like Madden Football.
Salute the nation

Shuffling Wilson out serves no purpose at all, he's dirt cheap (1.5m cap hit for '26), and he's at one of our weakest positions. Even if they draft two WR, moving on from now doesn't make any sense.Rudy and Wilson could get shuffled out and that would expand to 11. I agree if they give them another season then yeah 9.

EMW won't make it out of the first round.Right now, I suspect...
