The 2026 Draft Thread - 1st Round - 7th overall

Well I know the last couple of years Flores was doing things that even the most veteran QBs said they hadn't seen before. Let's just hope that it all works out. I am however have always been a believer in aggression on both sides of the ball and I love to blitz so I'm all for it.

Its also why I am ok with the offensive change but don't want it to go to far. I don't want a conservative run run pass offense when we think that at his best we have a generational QB. I still want to sling it around and go for 4k plus yards passing. I don't want us to have Jayden but play like we have some middle of the pack, game manager.

If it makes you feel better, the best and most explosive offenses in the league are leaning into heavy personnel, the run game, PA passing, etc. It’s not at all about being conservative or favoring run-run-pass, or neutering talented QB’s. It’s about marrying the run and pass game to make things hard on the defense and easier on the offense all around, disguising what you’re doing (especially situationally) and relying less on constant subs to try to manipulate matchups you want. You’re still creating matchups of course, but you’re also trying to make concepts look similar enough at the snap that it’s hard to prepare for what’s coming.

Now what will rookie OC Blough’s bastardized year 1 version of this, taken from the various coaches he’s spent time with in his professional life, look like? No idea. But the successful version of this across the league is not conservative or run-run-pass, and helps QB’s rather than restraining them.
 
Ok, random pet peeve: How they write 6'2" on measurements 6022--makes it look like he's just over 6 ft.
 
OOOOOOOOF

Man, so sad about Bain's arms. Was super hopeful he'd be 32" flat and we could stop worrying about it.

Womp womp
 
I would absolutely trade out of the first round entirely this year to be in a position to take Jeremiah Smith next year.
