NFL: 2024 NFL draft discussion thread, Draft begins 4/25 8pm, 4/26 6pm, 4/27 12pm

Wiggins is by no means a bad pick, but he's really slender. Forbes is around the same weight, and he got straight bullied last year.

yeah they need to get him into the weight room ASAP

was hoping for either dejean or wiggins so no complaints with the pick

 

[GKJ]

WFT has two picks early, they should be in position to get DeJean.

Hail to the Commanders!

 

[Fish on The Sand]

So what we saw today was the Commanders, Falcons, and Vikings all use a top 10 pick to replace Kirk Cousins.

 

[Tony Romo]

i would be a fan of Dallas coming up for Zach Frazier or JPJ please and thanks.

Cute, but who would you trust to build a football team - - Ryan Poles or Jim Harbaugh?

What has Poles done recently to doubt him?

Chargers desperately need their Pacua find

may be one of the most puzzling picks in draft history

Really not used to not being upset at the Bears after they’ve made a couple picks, not going to lie.

 

[BB88]

penix is a guy who should be starting right away anyways

just mindblowing

Let’s say in best case scenario he sits 2 years behind Kirk

He’d be 26y in his rookie season..

Why would you ever waste an 8th overall pick on that

 

[WeThreeKings]

Hopefully Gute can make a move up here to ensure we get Kool-Aid or DeJean.

What did I ever do to deserve this shit.

Only had 4 months to determine a no-brainer pick. But no....had to try to out-smart everyone in the room. What a complete crock of shit. This team sucks.

 

[GKJ]

If he is in any way serious, I’d be refusing to sign.

He can pull a Raghib Ismail and head up north

I've seen some very loose speculation that this means the tampering punishment is going to result in a lost 1st rounder, and this was a Hail Mary attempt at securing their QB position after Kirk is done in a couple of years since they then can't do it next year.

It's likely equally as unfounded as the idea that they drafted Penix so they can ransom him off to the Raiders since they just kinda don't have a QB.

Both ideas may still indicate more competence than the provided explanation, that drafting 6 year college starter Penix is an attempt to follow the Packers' example.

The best I can come up with is that the Falcons know they're going to lose draft picks over this tampering situation, maybe even a first rounder, so they figured they would take Penix Jr. now since they likely won't be in a spot to get a decent QB for a few years, especially if Kirk has us in the playoffs.

 

[GKJ]

Seems like Arthur Blank had a heavy hand in this, which is always a good idea.
