The 2025 Draft Thread

C is locked down for the next 4 years. Biadasz has been unbelievable. And has completely changed the interior of our OL. Been playing dinged up too.
Biadasz is only signed for 2 more years, but he could certainly be extended. I’m not trying to replace him though, I’m eyeing improving our interior depth. And perhaps we get lucky and wind up with a really good G out of the deal too. Not knocking Allegretti, he’s done well for us, but he’s not a stud.
Bottom line for me - I’d love to have a strong OL pipeline.

O and D, it all starts in the trenches
 
I liked him too but not to your level. He was one of those guys that was great fun to watch in college. He was all over the field, had patience and great anticipation and vision. There were some including Steve who were very down on him due to his size. He still plays like that in the pros, fun to watch and very productive.

Speaking of Steve McQueen (Going Commando) any sightings of him post ES? Good draft thread contributor and study of the game.
I bet he wanders in here eventually. We've lost a few good ones from the draft thread over the years.

I'm shocked that Sip hasn't joined yet.

Absolutely. And I don’t mean to sound like a broken record, it’s just that a lot of our offensive success has been predicated on the ground game. 52 yards against Baltimore, 60 against Pittsburgh, 93 against Philly… that’s problematic. Heck, even against the Browns, before Ekeler ripped off the 50 yarder and Daniels started punishing their edge rushers, we were 7 for 11 yards in the first 4 drives.

Personally, I’d like to improve our depth from guys like Dieter and Paul, and see if we can upgrade from Allegretti. I’m not too confident in a 6th/7th rounder being the answer. I’ll certainly admit we have higher priorities of course, such as corner, OT, and offensive weapon(s).
 
i tll you a qb that is ovrelooked is dart from ole miss,good runner,passer and has no fear.
I’m so glad we don’t have to look at QB in this draft.

At least not until the depth rounds like 6th or 7th.

In 2 years or so, I’d like to see them use a 4th-ish pick on a QB to develop as a backup and maybe flip down the road. It’s so much cheaper to have a draft pick as a backup QB than pay 8-12m for a good one.

he won,t go in the 2nd or 3rd round unless there is another pennix situation by a desprate team.
 
God. It’s so nice to see familiar faces and great draft breakdown here. I was despondent at the loss of ES just when we were finally getting good again.

KDAWG, awesome contributions to this thread.

I wonder if there is a practical way to find goingcommando/mcqueen, SIP, or even Volsmet.

I don’t think we can really cross anything off the list other than QB. I do think that with the addition of Lattimore, we can probably fill the defense out in FA.

I do think offensive playmakers are needed. We basically only have RB’s, and Terry, and Terry is 29. I’d prioritize that. We all saw what happened to the offense when another team could take Terry out of the game.

I’d honestly double dip. Higgins in FA, and also whatever impact players we could grab in the draft at WR, TE, and RB.

And I also still worry about tackle. OT’s often do require time to develop though. Coleman has the tools. I really hope he turns it around from his recent slump.

It’s funny how draft consensus changes. Last offseason, Will Campbell was viewed as a consensus top 5 pick. Now I’ve been listening to draft talk saying his arms are short, he’s been beaten the past few games, and he might be better off moving inside to guard.
 
Anselmheifer one thing we need to take a look at, there are A LOT of players on this team which are on one year deals who are making significant contributions. Ertz and Wagner immediately come to mind. I can’t remember the contract they gave Chinn.

I agree with you, no position is off the board (nor should it ever be) but I think there are actual still holes which need to be filled.

I’d say we need TE, LB, CB and OT. We’re most likely moving on from Jon Allen.

And we need to beef up skill positions as well.

Even with Lattimore, I might argue CB is still the greatest position of need. St. Juste would be a great 4th corner.

They still need help everywhere.
 
First sim draft. Many more to come!

Sanders will still go in the top 5 with his teammate Hunter.

Yeah the Kansas RB Jeanty is the real deal.

Milroe looked like the perfect Danny Dimes replacement for the NYG
 
While it seems our offense needs the most talent infusion, I'm thinking we are going to end out going defense in the 1st round. Just a gut but I see defenders falling into our lap
