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

[IdahoFan]

It’s rare when the biggest athletic freak of the draft is also a big character guy and a solid player. Blue chip and game changer.

 

[Faithful Fan]

Giants targeting Downs now?

 

[RWJ]

Lorenzo Styles Jr.

 

[bowhunter]

Sorry to hear that, I'm always here for ya, if you'd like to talk I'll give you my #, just PM me.

I won't, but Thank You. Your gesture of kindness is appreciated and noted. I just texted him anyway, it felt good. I think he'd like this pick

 

[ArtMonkWasMyHero]

Very happy we got Styles. Great pick.

 

[Conn]

Just remembered about Chanel.

My god we have three good starting LB’s for the first time I can remember in a WHILE

If the D's philosophy is built on LB versatility...guys who can rush, drop into coverage, and disguise looks to keep the QB guessing...Sonny Styles, Leo Chenal, and Frankie Luvu is a nightmare to account for.

Just me but I think Giants should’ve taken Styles over Reese. Harbaugh and his staff are proven and may wring the most out of Reese, but Styles would’ve been plug-and-play for them, even more freakish than Reese, and help their abysmal run defense while still having a huge role in pass defense. Maybe less pass rush. Maybe, depending on how Reese develops.

Very very happy to have Styles here, I would’ve worried that this staff would ruin Reese tbh. Styles just needs to be fired up and coached to search and destroy a little more

I had the same worry about the Giants. Was afraid they’d go Styles and leave us Reese. I’ve not been a fan but he would have had to be the pick and dint like it. Grateful for Styles. And extra grateful I don’t have to burn my house down for passing on Tate.

Sadly, I think it's a given

and magee, if he stays healthy and lives up to the off-season hype for the last two years.

 

[clskinsfan]

Great draft for Cleveland. They wanted the top tackle. They traded down and still got him Impressive.

 

[bowhunter]

Wow, Glad the Giants didn't get him

 

[Conn]

Giants targeting Downs now?

You would think so. Dream pick for Harbaugh to get his cerebral safety in-house in year 1, and much better value at 10 than 5.

 

[Higskin]

Wow, Downs is really slipping for a guy of his talent.

 

[IdahoFan]

Wow. downs is going to be a bargain for someone. I liked him

Yeah LB is probably our strongest position group now.

I assume this means Wagner will have to find a new home if he wants to play this year. I have nothing but respect for him and wish him well.

 

[prodigy]

hmmmm what is jerruh up to? downs?

 

[SkinsGuy99]

Why is that guy wearing a bush?
