Quote from: sooners56 on April 25, 2025, 04:02:06 PMThe Jags giving up what they did for Hunter. Way too much for a WR/CB

If the Jags had come up just short in the playoffs, the move would have made sense.  As a bad team picking 5th, they should have realized they weren't a player away.

Rich..

I'm thinking a p.r. move..sell tickets to a terribly uninterested fan base that sells out when? When they go to London??

That would be even more damning

Quote from: MightyGiants on April 25, 2025, 02:52:25 PMI think Sanders not getting drafted in round one was a surprise

Yeah, I agree.

Also the kid being unable to verbalise almost anything when being interviewed by the lady from NFL. Whilst maybe a tad harsh, it didn't speak to mental fortitude.  I found that surprising.

It's a brand new GM too! Those moves reek of desperation from a regime who should be thinking long-term. Hated everything about the trade up except the player.

I mentioned it last night but the Bears passing on the best tight end in the draft to pick Loveland is a shocker. I haven't been into the mocks this year but of the couple I read none had him going in the first round much less ahead of Warren with the 10th pick.
