You know what.. I would rather have them use our 1st round pick and get the best rated RB in the draft. That way, we don't have to keep reaching every other year and hope it pans out.

No they didn't. The highest they drafted a guy was Brown in the mid 3rd. Haven't taken a db higher than 64 in 10 years.

That's my hope that ShanaLynch have plans for all these reaches and their production will justify their draft position.

I'm taking the under and none will be on this roster in two years.

Well I've seen A J Jenkins and so hopefully the 2026 picks will give us some help this year before they are all cut. Having said that, I like our current OLine and TE's (for example) and yes I'd love a OLine pick and a TE pick, but the draft is only 1/3 of the talent acquisition process - trades and free agency are the other two thirds, and 40% of all players playing in the NFL have never been drafted. So I'm still optimistic.

After we got big wr's, smart of them.

SEA having a way better draft than us and they barely have any picks.

Price
Clark
Neal

All excellent players that will help them stay on top.

You are treating the draft like it is a vacuum. Like it was the only opportunity to add new players.

How else are they supposed to improve? They constantly pick lesser talented offensive linemen who fit their scheme. Then when they play good defensive linemen and it's talent on talent they fail.

You answered your own question. "They constantly pick lesser talented offensive linemen who fit their scheme" End nothing else to be said.

So what does this mean for the Oregon RB we drafted last year?

Probably cut, we draft these RB's and cut them the following year.

Would have been nice to get an OLine at that spot.

At this point this draft is at best a D heading rapidly down to an F

Cowboys get an A+ draft. They will be in the playoffs in 2 years.

Like I said before.. Steelers always load up on OL. If we can't block, we'll have a tough time running.

And yet they win nothing. I get the complaints about the draft if we were winning 3 or 4 games a season, but we arnt. So they are doing something right that all these other teams that you are so in love with what they are doing arnt.

The team is very well coached. We have some real stars and good players at many positions who cover up for the glaring weaknesses. But in the critical moments, those weak areas are exploited.

So no other teams have weak areas that get exploited? It is a game of chess. It is why one year a team does well and the next season they are picking in the top half of the draft. Trends change fast in the NFL.

Kittle is down. Farrell does nothing well. Tonges is whatever and they still sat there and watched nearly the entire TE class get away from them.

Considering Kyle clearly needed to have his precious RB... they easily should have just done this ...

#30. Jadarian Price RB
#70. De'Sean Stribling WR
#90. Jaishawn Barham EDGE

At least Price is actually a good RB that would force his way onto the field early and often and I would have been low key pumped for that amd excited for tomorrow.

Plus we steal Price from SEA who then is forced to draft an avg RB like Black with their last 3rd round pick and not us.

Fu**!

It just doesn't make sense that they do this every year, without positive results.

Shanahan and lynch can't f**king draft. This has been a theme the last 3-4 years
