I don’t know if he was in the cards for the Allen defense, but I know he’d made it on this defense one way or another. Seems he’s a lock to be gone by 10 anyway, but he’s a prospect I feel isn’t talked about a lot and not sure where his real draft position will fall.

I would of thought there would of been more than just Armstead and Dawkins.

T at #10 it is then. :)
Yea, and just to name em, in order: Trent, Tunsil, Wirfs, Andrew Thomas, Tyron Smith, Armstead, Slater, Darrisaw, Dawkins, and Kolton Miller. He hasn't put out a 2025 list though.

Sounds like Sanders may have locked up not being a top 3 pick. I hope he still goes top 9… or someone wants to trade for him at 10.

He and Chris Rose are super cringe on Sunday nights during the season. I honestly don’t know why MJD is there . He seems to hate it, not pay attention and generally has nothing interesting to say.

Sorry, I just really dislike that guy.
Chris Rose is one of the worst in the business. Can’t stand him.

I'd love Jalon at #10. He's my favorite defensive player in this draft.

Do feel like he would fit in allens scheme as he'd play SAM 20% of snaps, and about another 15-20% rushing the passer in known passing situations

It was locked up before today.
Browns/Giants just can't pass up Carter/Hunter after their recent QB miscues.
Looks like Rodgers is going to Pitt so I don't see anyone trading up ahead of the Saints and the Saints just may pass on him too.
I can see a possible Brady Quinn like drop.
Only 1 QB in the top 9 would be a bummer, probably takes away any LT possibility.

I still think giants draft shedeur. Daboll and schoen are fired if the qb position is a shit show again and russ+Jameis isn't fixing it. They should take hunter/Carter but when you keep a hot seat gm, he makes bad choices for job preservation

What would he do the other 60% of the snaps?

Chicago Bears NFL Draft target compared to 4-time All-Pro​


ESPN’s Matt Miller suggests that Warren could become the next Rob Gronkowski.

Gronk had a huge catch radius which was a big part of what made him such a threat in the passing game. Warren is the exact opposite in that he's a pretty small catch radius. Feels like a truly awful comp.

Also gronk was an incredible blocker. Warren is probably slightly above average

Warren will not suck but whoever drafts him will regret not getting better value

I do think he’ll be most successful if someone uses him the same way as Micah. When he talks about what he does, he clearly prefers to chase QBs. Otherwise, I think he can be used like Luvu.

We gave a lot of shit about MJDs draft rankings… and I don’t think the Bears would take Henderson at 10, but I highly recommend listening to this segment. It should start at 30:11 automatically. Given his pass blocking skills, the fit does make a lot of sense. And, sounds like he knows for a fact that Bieniemy is a big fan.

First you say Warren can't get separation and now you claim he has a tiny catch radius. I guess Penn State must have an amazing QB with pinpoint accuracy because how else do you explain how Warren had 1,233 yards receiving, 100 receptions and 218 yards rushing??

Apparently you have a superior eye for talent that everyone else is lacking.

Meanwhile Kmet's best college season was 43 catches and 515yds, but people are acting like Warren isn’t worthy of consideration.

He is really good RAC and does a nice job on contested balls, but he has short arms, therefore his catch radius isn't anything like gronks.
