No spoiled picks in this thread, all weekend. This means that as tweets are leaking picks a few minutes before the selection is announced live, you don't post it in this thread (ex: embedded tweets), reference it in this thread (ex: Joe Slapdick says it's So and So to Green Bay) or hint at it (ex: "it's a RB!").
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. Pure knee jerk gold to reference in the future.

It doesn’t make sense for “Mac Jones at 3” to have leaked as early as it did, it felt fishy than and we all just assumed it to be true because of media mock drafts backing it up. There hasn’t been any official word from either NYJ or SF about who they want to go, just plenty of speculation from twitter and the media. The most supportive evidence I’ve found on Wilson to NY is the fact that he reached out to former Jets QBs. I think we’re in for a wild one tomorrow.
LOL WHUT?
The Jets sent their young QB1 packing weeks ago.
They're taking Wilson.
Unless they somehow like Fields or Lance more, which would be dumb. [Reply]

Not that I totally disagree, but Pringle feels like there is something there. I just don't want him stuck behind JAG's. I wanna see his role increase. [Reply]
Kinda weird, but I’m more excited for the draft after the Brown trade. Our major needs have been addressed, so this is all about how much better we can get.
Unless we consistently reach, it’s hard to imagine being disappointed with our picks.
We’re so stacked that I can make an argument to draft lower upside, safe picks or higher upside, risky picks.
Really excited to see what we do over the next few days. [Reply]

When has Pringle ever shown anything at all? He already turns 28 this year and has a whopping 330 career receiving yards. He’s a JAG. [Reply]

A) His name is great
B) He caught that one TD vs. the Colts
C) His name is great
I just don't think we need more receiving targets. As much as I want Mahomes to have more, he already has a stacked deck.
What we need to do as a team is Defense, and every other year give him a WR who he will make look like a HoF'er. [Reply]
