Over paying is always a risk in FA..not always, though…and doesn’t mean you have to draft an OT at 10 if you’re not sold on their projection. Truth is the bears could go in so many directions and this draft is extremely unique. There’s going to be a ton of surprises

Yeah, I shouldn’t have quoted you my comment was more general. Apologies.Who said Kiran was as good as Banks? Is T their only need? I won't complain about a T in 1 but is it really a pressing or #1 need?
We'd like Jones to be better with a bull rush but imagine if Caleb actually had a pocket to step up into instead of having to constantly back up and all those outside rush deep redirects that were troubling are now a yard or more behind him. Most of Jones' pressures and sacks were as much the interior's fault as his.
Kiran got drafted as a guy with a ton of potential to be coached up and has had zero opportunity to have that happen due to not being able to practice until a few weeks into the season. No idea what he'll become but I suspect the staff will want to find out. You don't waste an early 3rd on an injured player you don't plan on using that year unless you project a round or more higher grade on him once back to normal and coached up.
Kiran Amegadjie's Draft Profile | Yale, OT Scouting Report | PFSN
As his 2024 NFL Draft scouting report states, Yale OT Kiran Amegadjie has the high-level physical tools to be the first FCS prospect selected in April.www.profootballnetwork.com
In regards to your question about offensive line being a pressing need, I believe so. I believe great teams are constructed like this:
Owner-GM-QB-Head Coach-Offensive Line.
Once that’s situated, the rest is easy.

I love when these outsiders act like anyone that is actually allowed in any teams draft room would tell them a damn thing about anything they're thinking about to do with the draft.

Actual teams almost never are. I posted before Jeremiah's old board, which had Kincaid at 9. He went nowhere near that. Some guys have Mayer high that year. Almost every year, there's a blue chip caliber TE that doesn't go as high as the media is pushing. And for the record, not a knock on Jeremiah, he's probably my favorite former scout/draft guy.

And Kincaid has been a disappointment. Mayer just couldn’t keep his “nose” clean

Who will people blame Poles or Ben Johnson if they bust?

I guess the people that still think Poles is the last voice on personnel will be mad at him and the people who think it's now the Ben Johnson show and he has final word will maybe blame him or they'll spin to still blame Poles.

I would never think of it. As Samuel Langhorne Clemens once said:
“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”
― Mark TwainAlso... waiting on what great horror I should expect may result from CW's GQ interview.

What would you call a reach at 10 when the talent level between 10 to 20 is all about same?
