If Green can stay out of jail and really work on his public reputation, it will be a cornerstone pick. If not, we've drafted an incorrigible player who will turn off a large part of the fan base and be a black mark on the franchise. At this point, all I can say is, let's wait and see which happens.

Looks like we're going to lose out on drafting a good Edge player where we're drafting. Some having us taking a CB in round 2. Should we use some of our draft capital to move up in the 2nd to get a good Edge guy? How about Ezeriaku from Boston College?

Because it frees up Hamilton like he was in '23, it's almost like getting 2 players for price of one.

Yeah the trade up would have been something but I am really delighted with us getting Starks. He's a guy who brings immediate impact they say and hell, he's from Georgia so he ought to be good.

I would only take the OG if there was not an impact-ready edge rusher, cornerback or safety available...especially if the guy needs development. There will be other options available for us, I think. As for Green, while you don't have to be a choir boy to play for us, I'd be very leery about a guy who might not even be out of jail during training camp.

That is exactly how I feel about Stewart...another Oweh we don't need. We need a guy who's ready now.

I just hope they don't pick Shemar Stewart at 27. He's one of those guys who has 'great potential' but who's senior year production was 4 1/2 sacks. There's a few pundits that have him going to us. We need a guy who can make an immediate impact not another project. Stewart should be a Day 2 pick.

Papa I'm confused...the Giants only have one first round pick this year. Are you saying we'll move down into the second round to get their 2026 1st and their 2025 2nd and we'd have no first round pick? Depending on who's still available at 27 this year, that could be a possibility but it is somewhat risky because we give up a first rounder this year who'd have a 5th year option. If that is what you're suggesting though it does bear watching I'd say.

No I'd hate to see them move down. They already have 11 picks in this draft. Dropping lower would be a mistake. Crap, they're already down there at 27. I could only see doing it if they had a choice of 3 blue chip players at positions of need. Then maybe they could drop down 1 or 2 spots only. That is a highly unlikely scenario.

I wouldn't make that deal. I did have some good feelings about using Mark to move up in the draft.

I don't know. I guess I do feel a loyalty to Andrews since he's been a big contributor to Lamar's growth as a passer. Maybe it's because I'm old that I feel like he's being thrown on the scrap heap because of his age when he's still productive. Likely is the safest option if it comes down to a choice between the two from a GM's perspective. Hunter is out of his mind.

If they can't get a 2nd round pick for him, keep him. I think he's got a few more years of good football left in him. It will be interesting to see how Hunter is utilized by the team that drafts him. I can't believe he'll be effective as a 2 way player in the NFL.

I wouldn't trade him for less than a 2nd despite his late season woes.

An starting edge rusher or a starting safety would make me happy. One or the other should be available at 27. I don't see Eric moviing up or down. I think it will wind up with us staying put.

Funny, funny stuff!
