It’s crazy that just what, two years?, after everyone was talking about the Cowboys dominant offensive line, they’re even looking to take a LT in the first again [Reply]

The Cowboys defense is atrocious but they've got the same situation the Chiefs have in needing to protect their Powerball-priced QB.
If the Bengals pass on Sewell, the Cowboys won't. And if the Cowboys don't get Slater, that might tip the scales for Miami to take him.
Not much chance of 2 of the 3 being available at 13 to the Chargers but if by some miracle they are, then you have the Vikings possibly re-thinking their situation.
We really have to get ahead of the Chargers if we want a realistic chance at Darrisaw. [Reply]

I honestly don't see how any of the top 3 make it past the Chargers at 13 and Vikings at 14. Even if the teams in the top 10 pass, the Vikings might jump at the chance if one of them falls. [Reply]

I really feel like we need to hit on 3 players in this draft.
We need a longterm LT solution.
We need a #2 type WR to develop.
We need a DE to impact the pass rush this year and probably take over for Clark in 2022.
There are other things we could USE, but these three are the things we NEED, in my opinion.
I'm not opposed to moving up a little, but we need to hit on three picks, so I'm against moving up too much or using 2022 picks to move up. [Reply]

Miami traded back up to 6 with a target in mind, and the rumors are that teams picking that high expect the Bengals to pick Chase and the expectation is the Dolphins are targeting Pitts. I think it’s entirely possible that Sewell falls to 10. [Reply]

The amount of Chiefs fans that would be screaming “trade up” would be deafening. [Reply]

Until today.
There's still a month before the draft. Anything can happen.
Sure but my point is it's more likely at this point also centers are not as premium a position as a LT. With the guys that are out there now they are still likely to draft one high even if they sign a stopgap.
