Re: Dane Brugler 7 round mock

I actually disagree on Conerly…I think he’s got a very good chance of playing LT. I don’t think he will ever be a top 5 LT but I think he can be a serviceable starting LT in the right system.

As far as LT prospects, I put him below Banks, Simmons, and Campbell but he’s next up…could be a guy we ...

Re: 2025 NFL Draft Thread

I don’t know if I’ve seen a pass rusher who’s technique and hand fighting was as polished as Latu’s coming out last year. The guy was just really well developed and it was jaw dropping how easy he made it look. If not for the neck injury, he would have been a top 7 pick.

Green is a different guy ...

Re: 2025 NFL Draft Thread



Not a great game..but you see how tough Mike Green is to block 1/1. I see flashes of Micah Parsons when I watch him play. Watch him toss that OT out of the way…watch him toss Conerly on his back at the Sr Bowl. He overcomes size with speed and strength.

Re: TJ Edwards signs 2yr $20M extension

Couple things we need to take into consideration….

Yes he had a down year, but he was playing behind one of the worst lines in football. That absolutely affects the play of a linebacker. With an improved dline, he’s going to get back to playing at a high level.

He’s reliable, durable, and a ...

When looking at edge rushers…If I had to bet my house on one guy after Carter that will average 8-12 sacks per year for his career, it’s Mike Green. I just dont see Poles taking him with his size and character risks.

Re: Build the Lines

Athletically, I think Banks and Simmons are better suited for LT. That said, there’s a long line of guys that had the athletic traits but didn’t put it together.,

Worst case, I believe Campbell is a very good guard.
