Let's ****ing do this.

Don't be a dick.
Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. These separate threads will be made as soon as the news breaks, outside of this thread. I will link the threads below. Pure knee-jerk gold to reference in the future.

He now coaches the Denver Broncos and will eventually get fired from that job in shame.
The moral of the story: If you're 100% locked in on a single player and you have a draft shopping list that's pretty short, quit ****ing around and just go get your ****ing guy to avoid anybody swooping in and ruining your day. Or career, for that matter.
Words to live by. 2 Things folks forget every year with the draft:
1. There's no such thing as a reach. Either the player starts 5 years for your team or he doesn't.
2. Every good team starts with a good OL. Doesn't matter what weapons you have (unless you have Mahomes and only we do). [Reply]

The best thing I’ve heard is that he could *compete* with Wanya who we all think is ass.
Bruh follow along. Several OL experts have said he can start in ‘24. List the guys still on the board that impact this team more over the next five years. [Reply]
I don’t think the 2nd round is the place for it though.
If you wanna throw things at the wall and see if it sticks, do it on day three.
Again, I’m a believe in Veach guy, so I’m gonna hope I’m overreacting. But in this draft our R2 was damn valuable and we took a project, even according to the expert that someone mentioned earlier.
Sometimes round 3 and below T’s get you Niang or Morris. Round 2 is a much better place to get someone like KC got. He’s not elite out of the gate, but the upside is undeniable. This is a good move for a team that has very few glaring holes. This is very much a long game type pick. [Reply]
