Baun may allow us to alter our defense week to week (or playoff to playoff game) based on match-ups - the only problem with that theory is the cognitive abilities of Dennis Allen...

And for the record, I'm Team Trautman now...

Though, like the Davenport pick, putting that much draft capital into one player can be problematic...

As I stated in a blog re: the Davenport pick, one of the concerns is when you put that much draft capital into one player, that pressure may be too much...

Nonetheless, watching his interviews this draft season, Adam is a very intelligent, grounded young man and don't forget, he will have Dan Campbell to develop, transition him...

Wanted to ask this also, is anyone streaming the draft on desktop? What network (ESPN or NFLN) are you following for the actual draft?

The stream link I shared flip flops between NFLN pre-draft/post-draft, and ESPN for the actual draft...

Between the woke, Lifetime Channel sob orphan stories, Michael Irving coming in and out of induced stupors, or the Vikings Mini-Miracle, the ESPN stream is killing it for me...

That's a great point! He's definitely an athlete in his own right and he will be a difference maker depending how long it takes for him to transition to the level of play...

Fortunately, as I mentioned, Asst Head Coach/TEs Dan Campbell is still on our roster....

Unfortunately my only option was NFL gamepass, so before I decided to mute it, it was just constant streams of Michael Irvin trying to string a sentence together.

Well, after giving it more thought and sleeping on it, I still hate this deal. Say what you will about our roster being "too stacked for late round choices to stick." Many, myself included, have made the mistake in recent years of believing that our roster is sooo deep and sooo talented. Then the injuries start rolling in and guys who you thought were gonna make the leap never do and before you know it we're getting bounced out of the playoffs by an inferior team in our own house. Our roster is miles away from perfect. We still need depth in the secondary, at LB and for heaven's sake we need more WR's. We have 2 good one's, which I will concede is twice as many as we had last year, but behind them it's a wasteland. We could've used a developmental QB, considering life after Drew is coming soon and we are totally unprepared currently.

I like the player well enough. Though, his physical traits don't exactly jump off the page, and I'm unimpressed by his stats due to the level of competition he played against. But unless he becomes an absolute stud then I will never believe he's worth the price that was paid. These mystical point systems are bs. There's no way that a late 3rd round pick is worth a 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. We got fleeced.

That much draft capital? He's was projected as what, a mid 2nd rounder? And he cost what?

That's like saying a dollar bill, a quarter, a dime, and a penny are more monetary capital than a five dollar bill because there are more of them.

Just saying.

We've still got some players that could be moved for draft picks...

Wow day three of the draft is almost completely unwatchable if your team doesn’t have any picks. This is so boring.
