Homer alert!

2025 NFL mock draft ... with a twist! What every team SHOULD do in Round 1

He thinks the Giants should take Jeanty? Like that worked out last time... horrible should pick

I mean it's an article from fansided so i wouldn't put too much into that. Everyone is just putting stuff out there for clicks and sometimes they don't put very much thought into what they're putting out there.

I'm just responding to the article. Only 8 days before all this is largely answered.

I wonder where he thinks Jeanty should be picked. I'm guessing he's thinking the Raiders should go with Jeanty at #6.

I would be a hard no!

I can't even imagine what they'd ask for in return. A future 6th or 7th?

Anyone that has written off Kiran “forever” aren’t too bright. None of us really know what he can be one way or another.

and you know these GM's have an ego and aren't about to give up on him after a terrible 2024 situation.
Add in that they are expecting Braxton to return and there isn't any slam dunk OT at 10 and I would think that DL or an offensive weapon for Ben seems most likely. just my 2 cents.

This.

Amegadjie was always a project. No training camp due to injury on top of coming from a small school. They didn't want him to see the field in year one after having both Jones and Borom but both were injured so we didn't have a choice.

It's not that I would be counting on Amegadjie to start the season as your starting LT but he's a nice developmental tackle prospect. To me, if you take Kelvin Banks Jr. at 10 then looking for a trade for Jones would be a good idea. You then pencil Banks in at starting LT with Amegadjie as the swing tackle and you're not worrying about having to pay anyone at either T position for another 2-3 years still.

Raiders make a lot of sense. I also wouldn’t rule out the jaguars as a sleeper pick

The best rounds for the Bears to address their areas of need in the 2025 NFL Draft

With the Chicago Bears roster set the way it currently is, the Bears are in a unique position ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft. While most mock drafts have specific

Thought process seems fairly reasonable

I wouldn’t trade jones in that scenario. I’m not even sure banks will end up being a long term upgrade over Braxton, yet alone this year….and we just don’t know what we have with amegadjie. Relying on him alone as your swing tackle is a bit risky. If they go OL at 10, I’m hanging on to Braxton and letting the pieces fall as they may.

They both think the Raiders.

The Chiefs have drafted an offensive tackle in 4 of the last 5 years and people expect they'll do it again this year.

I think Green and Pearce both have higher ceilings than the DE's projected to be available at #39/#41. The questions with them are if Dennis Allen would sign off on DE's their size and the character issues.

I don't think he's saying round 3 is the best place to address the OL, he just has the other positions ranked higher on his list of needs for the Bears.

I wonder if there's any money left to spend in free agency to sign another DE, DT, OL, S, RB or whatever else that they can use to help any position that they weren't able to in the draft. There's still some really good names out there at multiple positions that can help this team.

I think they should add a safety in FA post-draft. Marcus Williams makes a lot of sense.

I also think depending on the draft, an edge like zadarrius Smith or Matthew judon could make sense as a 3rd edge to rotate in

That's an interesting chart of stats!

I still think Ollie Gordon is a good get for this team.

Love this. I've been pushing for Mathew Judon for a while now and would love Marcus Williams or Justin Simmons for S. I do like Elijah Hicks but he needs at least another year to see if he can keep growing. J.Owens did some good things but also made some bad mistakes especially in coverage. I could cut Owens now and not look back if we replaced him with one of the two we mentioned or someone else in free agency.

The question is do we have money for these moves? I know we can move money around on contracts and there's other ways to create cap space but i know Poles has been trying his best to not do stuff like that that just hurts the cap down the road.
