In a vacuum, we addressed exactly what we needed and we're a better football team.

I don't like the fact we're now down a 3rd and 4th round pick but if we come way with 3 impactful football players this draft, which we likely are, then it was a very successful draft.

Very good player in Olave.

Yeah it sucks not having that 3rd and 4th, but we’ll still come away with three top 50 picks and two more for depth on the third day.

It's hard to lose the 3rd and 4th outright in such a deep draft. But at least we have a solid history of getting usage out of undrafted rookie free agents. Also soon we will have the USFL and XFL to scout and use as a resource, so the landscape is changing.

I can easily see them trading future picks to move back into the 3rd if there is someone they really like. That's pretty much their modus operandi.

Looks like the team is commited to Winston in the short term so let's get it done!
