Would the Bucs have a ring if immediately after signing Brady, instead of using their 1st round pick on Tristan Wirfs, they drafted Jordan Love? Sure, Love would be great for the future, but they probably dont win it all in 2020 without Wirfs. How many rings did the Packers win with Favre after drafting Rodgers, or with Rodgers after drafting Love? How many rings did the Ravens win with Flacco after drafting Jackson, the Eagles with Wentz after drafting Hurts, or the Chiefs with Smith after drafting Mahomes. The fact is, once you draft a 1st round QB, you give up on winning it all with your veterans starter. Giving up on Cousins before he plays a snap after giving him $180 million is a financial disaster, and for all we know if they got a Wirfs or Reggie instead and Cousins plays well, maybe they could have won it all.

Not sure it really matters. Atlanta isn’t winning a Super Bowl with or without Kirk Cousins. Kirk isn’t Brady. Kirk is Dak Prescott. I think they were sold on him being the QB then the head coach saw something he really liked in Pennix. And as far as financial disasters are concerned, they never really seem to matter much if you ask me. This could have been their plan all along. Pay a veteran for four years and go the Aaron Rodger’s route with a rookie QB.

I’d consider DT, DE or possibly a WR (Coleman) on day 2.

23. Evidently we tried to trade up for him. Atlanta playing keep away. We missed out.

Plenty of talent still available in range for round 2.

Cooper DeJean move to Safety?
T Sweat space eater?
Malachi Corley running similar to Deebo Samuel?



Round 3-4
Austin Booker DE, Kansas
Christian Hayes G, UConn

Dennis Allen is hard to listen to. His conversation with Fuaga was full on cringe.
I love this team. Love the pick. They need to find a real dude to do the talking. Let Allen do the scheming and gameplay and have someone else do the talking.

DeJean at Safety is an A+ move. Not an elite man defender as a corner, but an elite man defender for a safety. Great in zone. Athletic. Great ball skills. Speed is excellent. Definitely wouldn’t mind.

Truth be told though…I think we need another OT. They won’t do that, but I think I would.

Didn't we get Nicks and Bushrod in the 5th?

Yep - the Saints were definitely interested in drafting Pennix.
