They run the Nickel that you are obsessed about...   Huff/ Carter/ Davis / Milton/ Smith.... white/ Maddox.... with your 2 CBs and 2 Safeties.  

You so concerned with the run D of Smith and Huff at the same time.  Or more so Maddox / White?   

I mean there is your nickel...because in your mind Huff is a DE and Smith is a LB... that's 2 LBs right?    For me it's the 3-4 with Smith and Huff being the edges ( the OLBs when we grew up ) 

Does it really matter the labels???    You can't see the obvious that it's a 3-4 in that situation?

Nickel would be Huff, Carter,(pick a DT) and Smith…..Dean and White….Ringo Slay,Maddox…..Ceedy Duce and Blank

I called them both DE in Nickel

Huff and Smith with what off ball LB cleaning up in support? Yes, you can only run in one direction at a time. But you could choose to run either direction very effectively. Not even like it’s a known weakness to be able to overplay…its both sides if they’re on the field together.

You’re the one who posted about bringing in the undrafted player that replaced Hurts. Made no sense. I was just helping you out here.

So why would I spend a draft pick on the Tennessee QB when I can get Tag as an undrafted UDFA???

Steen T/G third round pick just last draft

And he is the starting RG for sure now?

If they continue to crank out Tom Brady and Mahomes... teams could just draft a QB???   There is continuous supply of elite players.  

Either way is fine, because you are still not spending huge amounts when you can get rookies for 4 years. Right,if there is a continuous supply of elite players in the draft,why do you need to overpay existing ones?

Doesn't matter how good(or bad) your DB players are, if in your nickel set, you give 12 yard cushions. I can throw for 7 yards all day. This was the BS we did last year on 3rd and 6 plays

Same idea practically being floated around as a MUST for this draft. A college T that can play G.

Steen has the similar problem to much of this T draft class…short arms smaller hands.

Just a body as far as I can tell. He's 31, coming off an MCL, only 16 TD's in 9 yrs

TE isn’t a position that it would be real difficult to make the team at. One injury and he’s practically automatic. Still have the draft and other avenues to add to the team. Feels a little forced as a smokescreen.

He did well with Burrow then stunk with Zach Wilson and the Jets…worth giving a grizzled vet a shot. Larger move if it’s the last significant signing at the position.

I’d think Uzomah comes straight in as the number two TE. ST core player.

Goedert, Uzomah and Calcattarra…I’m fine with that TE room.

Plenty in round 2. Doesn't matter to me either way,just seems like a waste to get a round 1 when you have more pressing holes to fill. Unless Lane is retiring next year it's a REACH at 22. If you want to move back to 32 then do that because other than the top 2 there isnt alot of talent difference to warrant a reach at 22

Calcaterra has proven nothing. He's hurt all the time. Id' be fine if he hit the bricks

Who said it was a MUST with our first pick besides you? I would be fine at 32 and more picks,but not at 22

The biggest question for Mims might be his durability and dependability early on in his career. He has just eight career starts to his name. In 2023, he missed several weeks due to an ankle injury requiring tightrope surgery and was rarely 100% on the field.

That said, if teams clear Mims medically, there’s little stopping him from going early in the 2024 NFL Draft. He’s an elite physical talent who’s still just 21 years old, checks boxes off the field, has left-right versatility, and already has traits like leverage acquisition and processing on his side.

Though Mims may need a larger acclimation period at the next level, his complete pallet of traits will allow him a larger margin for error as he gets started. In time, he can develop into an impact starter at either tackle spot.

I would be ok with Mims at 32 maybe 30 tops. He is hurt alot for one thing which you seem to hold against Latu. He's very rough,which is ok since we have time to work with him, but for me 22 is too high. The ones higher than him would require a move UP and losing draft capital in a stacked draft. not real smart
