Jets-Allen
Tampa Bay-Chubb
Bears-Sutton/Ridley
Raiders-Smith
49ers-Fitzpatrick

I don't care if we pick up a corner in FA, if Fitzpatrick is there when we're picking we take him. He's just like Barkley. Just so much better than the rest, could play multiple positions in the secondary, and be great at them all

I don't think there's any way Allen goes before Darnold. Also don't think Key goes int he top 10. I can see Raiders taking Smith.

The more time goes along, I really hope we don't take guard with our 1st pick. That almost has to be pass rush or corner.

I don't think any pick has to be any position yet. After FA maybe, but almost all options are on the table.

There are three players in this draft that I think are special players: Saquon Barkley, Minkah Fitzpatrick, and Quenton Nelson. If either Barkley or Fitzpatrick are there, then it's a no brainier to take them. I wouldn't normally want to take a guard anywhere near that early, but Nelson is just that good.

Agreed, but I don't think it's likely that he gets to us.

I agree with you 100% on Barkley and Nelson... not so much on Fitzpatrick. While he is very intriguing and could end up being a stud... the fact that people aren't really sure if he will be a safety or a corner kind of makes me hesitant. Sorta reminds me of the arguments last year over Jabril Peppers as a DB or a LB. I just could not justify taking a guy in the top 10 who doesn't have a clear cut position.
I dunno... maybe that's just me. Would I be pissed if we drafted him? No... but I would definitely scratch my head a little. Especially if a guy like Nelson, Barkley, or Sutton are still there.

Also... my entire outlook on the draft is going to change depending on what we do in free agency.

People didn't know if Jalen Ramsey was a safety or a corner.

I was going to say the exact same thing.

End of the day, as long as QB need drives teams, there will be a good player, maybe two or three, available when we pick.

Aaaannnnddddd this is why we we’re able to get Foster so late. Arrested for possession not even a month into his first offseason. Smh, this is the type of thing that worried me about him.

We all knew he had a failed test at the Combine. If it becomes a long term problem then I'll worry. Guys still young, Randy Moss talked about smoking throughout a long career. It's all about not getting caught.

How can you not be worried? He failed a test at the biggest interview of his life last year when he knew it was coming and didn’t even wait a month after the season to get busted with possession. It’s very concerning for his future, it’s hard to depend on him. The Randy Moss comparison is pretty foolish as well, he played in a very different era, with a lighter enforced drug policy.

Tyran Mathieu got caught how many times, has he been busted since? Guys young and it's only an issue because he was in Alabama instead of California. Nothing is certain. I'm not going to stress about it. More than willing to see if KNJr can work with him. Doesn't really have a mentor with Bowman gone.

U shouldn't really need a mentor to know that you are doing something wrong, he know he was. He's young, hopefully he learns by it, but who knows, it's up to him
