1. Best O lineman in the Draft
The best O lineman fell to 18th? Usually there are several OTs taken in the top 15 aren't there?

7. Love the name Gus Hartwig and I want to know wtf an OC is. Are they just going to draft and OC instead of hire one to replace Grubb?

We aren’t getting the 4th pick for Dk

Cut

Locket 17m
D Jones 16.5m
Fant 9m
Roy Tob 6.6m
Can Young 1m
Mike Morris 1m

51 mill savings. 24 mil cap space. Total.
We are over the cap by 27m

Until recently it was always designated as "C". But , OG doesn't make much more sense. Perhaps they just wanted to be consistent with using two letters, but they still use "S" for safety as far as i know so i'm not sure. Maybe all offensive linemen should be designated "Guards" since they guard the QB and tackle no-one. Outside guard, inside guard, and center guard. But then you'd have to use three letters to distinguish between left and right. Left outside guard would be a LOG, right inside guard would be a RIG etc.

Don’t think he will be cut unless we draft someone. So a post June 1 cut.

Regardless it won’t be a 31m cap savings. We will have to still sign a qb if not draft So they will be at least 10 mil. Daniel Jones, fields, and more will still cost us.

I’d sign Daniel if he could come. 10 mil if we can. Use that 21 on the online and do a run heavy offense. DJ can be a good qb if not main dude.

Sure we will be exciting

So in this draft I was able to trade down and still draft the best rated guard in the draft @ # 20.

But, the more important thing is drafting the QB of the Xmas future, present, and past in Jalen Milroe. I watched the TN-DC game today and they on some plays had 2 dudes playing "spies" against Daniels. That is an allocation of defenders that tilts the numbers in favor of the offense.

I think if we drafted Milroe you could see the return of the early Russ years with the triple option thing of hand-off, run, pass options. And with a QB who has running back type ability, you get that double up on RB#1 numbers on offense. Lamar once rushed for over 1200 yards in a season. I would just welcome back a QB who has the ability and willingness to maximize each play with his feet.

I concentrated on BPA with positional need and was really pleased to draft Jonah Coleman (UW) at #196.

I have not been able to engineer my ideal draft yet, but I will continue to try.

I was able to trade down to gather some more round 2 picks

Pick #41. I got the #28th overall ranked prospect in DT Tyleik Williams from Ohio State this should really bolster our interior DL.

With pick # 42 I picked the # 35 overall edge guy

I once again got Jalen Milroe with # 50 PICK (ranked 46th overall)

Pick 65 I got an OG ranked #50 overall

At pick 82 I had the chance to draft a DT ranked #58, but choose to go after the WR ranked #77 over LSU's Lacy. I think they may trade DK, and I think they may see T-Lock retire or get cut.

At pick 104 I got a 6'6" 315 OT ranked # 93

I don't see how they could trade DK and cut lockett the same season
