Fourth and Fifth round picks should be providing quality depth and have at least some kind of impact by the end of their rookie seasons...

Sixth and Seventh round picks are your developmental, special teams and medical redshirts...

Exception: Quarterbacks (First Rounders should be starting by midseason)

Look, we developed enough talent for other kids during the Mora years, let the other kids develop the talent...

We should be reloaders, not rebuilders...

Michael Thomas, a second rounder, and any of the 2nd round DTs(other than Clark and Johnson) should make immediate first year impacts. And our guard we get in fourth needs to be able to start this year.

Re: Trade Down at 12?

with Phili out of the mix and houston spending millions. who will trade up now to jump ahead of miami?

Miami looks to be in need of defense as are we so to trade down would mean we would be passing on at least two defensive players before pick 12 is made. Phili and Houston have changed this draft big time

:popcorn:

Lots of jockeying still... Looking to trade down should be our default policy, provided we get value. We should never trade up.
