Bengals lost Tyler Boyd.
Dolphins is up there with Tyreek and Waddle but I think Houston, now with Diggs, is better.

I forgot they also got Joe Mixon.
Yowza.

I'd still take Miami's group. Maybe even Minnesota's, depending on what you see in Addison (if I get to include Hockenson).

I am impressed with everyone's draft IQ here. I am stumped as usual because of the late picks. We will surprised I think. Picking so low, you must have great gut instincts. Veich does. Even CEH has two rings. And that really was a Mahomes reach really.

You don’t get to include Hockenson.

Oh man the Bills - might be tough sledding in the future.

And Buffalo got nothing this season in return. I think that sound we just heard was the Bills window slamming shut.

The downside is they will take a WR at 28 now for sure

Yep, especially since they had already lost Gabe Davis to Jacksonville. I am starting to worry about the caliber of WR that may be remaining at 32. Maybe KC pivots to their CB "need" and tries to find some value WR in the 2nd or 3rd now.

The Bills trying to do a reset kinda what the Chargers did. They have big time QB and not a lot of weapons. The Bills before the trade were not trending for WR but they are now. The Chargers are a candidate for moving back in the draft with the Vikings. The problem is they were most likely going OT with their pick but if they move back they would have two first rounders to get OT and WR, If the Vikes can get Arizona to trade back it would be better for us. They would get a WR with one pick but the other would not be OT.

So the Texans redid Diggs contract and now it is basically a one year deal at $22.5 million. Also Diggs is going to hit the Bills next year for $31 million dead cap hit. Ouch the Bills just did not want anything to do with Diggs anymore.

That’s why I wanted more value out of Sneed to maybe jump Buffalo.

To me though, we now have 3 positions of need so I agree we could go WR round 2-3.

There are a ton of receivers thankfully. I would like to see the Chiefs get Puni. He can play every position on the OL and is a drop in replacement for Allegretti

Broncos get Zach Wilson from the Jets for a 6th.
Zach Wilson, if you all remember, really sucks, but had one of his best games against the Chiefs in Jersey this year ( in fact, the refs kinda fucked over the Jets in that one ).

Amon Ra now the highest paid receiver.
The position is getting bloated in cost so it makes sense to find your guys via the draft here ( similar to finding your QB and trying to win during their rookie contract ).

"Lions signed WR Amon-Ra St. Brown to a four-year contract extension worth up to $120 million.
St. Brown’s deal, with $77 million in guarantees, makes him the league’s highest paid wide receiver."

Very rarely do the best players at a position stay a long time as the highest paid players at their position. AMon-Ra isn't the best and whoever the next really good WR is will break this, assumedly Justin Jefferson, who probably actually IS the best WR.

Sure.
But i'd rather have Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice for a combined 8.6 million than Amon Ra for 30.

ARa was a 4th Round pick.
Rashod Bateman was a 1st round pick in the same draft. Dude was pretty much ass last season.
Kad Toney was a 1st round pick in the same draft. Dude was pretty much ass last season.
Moral of the story is.....

So Hill signed a 4 year $120 million contract with $73 mill guarantee. Then the details came out and you realize that Hill for sure not getting the last year of the contract and most likely to Fins opt out after next year which means it no where close to a $30 mill a year deal.

OK Chiefs don’t give up too much to move up. Explore opportunities to trade down if your guys aren’t there.

My newest and last hope that will never happen.
Bears do a lot of moving/trading and some how end up with Harrison, Verse, Nix or Penix, and a quality OT.

Bears have a lot of options.
Kind of jealous in a fresh slate kind of way but not in a actual functional football program sort of way.

Would you take this?

( got you 2 1sts for next year )

Gotta be better than Fields and Trubisky right?

That's cool!
I have no fricking clue who the Bears should be drafting.
I'm laughing that my 90 year old mother texted me saying congratulations. Congratulations on/for what?
I was excited when they drafted Fields. How did that work out?
Lulz at the Falcons! Unless it's a trade.
Here comes #9. Whatever the Bears do at 9 I will probably question. They have a tough choice between Turner and Odunze and they will probably end up taking Fautanu.
