If Verse lasts to mid-20s do you consider trading next year's first and one of the 2nds for him?
Interesting question… I do still like the idea of patiently waiting on an edge next year. We’ll have a lot of ammo to move up in a deeper edge class. That said, he keeps falling and my intrigue increases.

My opinion is that they need to get a top DE in the 2025 draft. It is time to have the 5 years of cheaper control. There are lots of players who either get paid soon or are lost.
Lets see what happens at #75 but they could dive into free ageny and bring back Yannick or sign E.Ogbah or Carl Lawson.

If they can avoid a huge payout I'm all for it. More OL the better
Honestly, get him and call the 2024 draft off.

Let Flus coach up his D. Offense is set.

Note I saw very limited college footage of Williams and Penix. I have to say I have never seen a college QB throw more accurate balls than Penix did vs Texas in the CFP. He just surgically threw perfect pass after perfect pass.

Ironically the most I saw Williams was when he was beating Texas his freshman year.

Regardless I am content with the pick. Let the cards fall where they may.
I personally believe Caleb is the best talent...but the best "college" QB was Pennix and his accuracy was crazy..first highlight they showed...ball was out b4 break.

If we somehow get Powers Johnson, I'm going to be an annoying motherfucker.
That’s another player they can trade back in for. I really believe they are going to trade back in to get one of these players.

Verse DE
Newton DT
JPJ C
Friske DT


Friske taking the lowest capital in a trade.
