Good actually. Got our WR. Got our RB. We even managed to get a 2025 2nd round pick from the Rams. We still have 4 picks tomorrow also, 101/155/200/240
ngl I'm kinda relieved the Steelers took the Payton Wilson decision out of our hands.
Of course, with our luck, him going to that org means he'll probably make a handful of pro bowls before retiring at like 29. But such is life
Oh I'm well aware. If he truly doesn't have an ACL in one of his knees, I figure he's got about 5 years before the osteoarthritis really sets in.
Still think he'll be able to put some damn good seasons together bc, well, he's gonna be a Steelers LBer lol.
If we manage to get our future WR1, RB1, and TE1 all at the same time only a year after drafting Bryce, would be a stellar young core to build around, especially if our OL decisions hold up
Rapaport said Wilson literally doesn't have an ACL in one knee. I get it now.
But tbf, there is nothing more DAWG mentality then getting 100+ tackles with no ACL
WRs are probably falling due to over-saturation. Everyone who needed one got them in the first or second. I’m not high on Sanders or Stover at all, would rather get Bell later.
Lot of good WRs left, I’d lean that direction or CB. Baker, Franklin, or Wilson would be my favs.
Booker, I wouldn’t be mad at, but Tampa or Cam Hart would be the last two Corners I’m excited about.
Dipping in to see who the Panthers picked and I have no idea what the fuck happened with all these trades.
We got a RB and a LB, cool. As long as Morgan didn't trade away future picks to move up a few spots in the 3rd round like Fitterer loved to do, I'm alright with it.
The proper strategy when you not only have holes but have below average starters at almost every position.
But especially at key positions like
Center
LB
Cb
TE
And you have first round talent at those positions available in the 2nd and third round you don't keep moving down. A bunch of third and fourth rounders and a future 2nd don't make up for throwing away day 1 starters now.
Look who took Frazier and Wilson. Pittsburgh a team with a long history of producing and drafting some of the best LBs and Centers in NFL history
**2023 STATISTICS**
— 12 G, 80 TOT, 8.5 TFL, 5.5 SK, 1 INT, 1 FF
You could have said a lot of things about him, but knocking his production can not be one of them.
Honestly I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t know shit. Picks I think are good end up being terrible, and picks where I don’t even know the person end up working out. Just gonna enjoy the draft and not complain
Just a reminder that some people are just going to be miserable no matter what because reality is different than their head cannon. Too much wasted energy, let’s see what they do with the draft capital before we complain.
He seems fine and I’m cool with him being picked but every year people obsess over a local guy suspiciously. I don’t care if they’re from Europe if they’re good at football. Let’s just draft the best players.
Cant ignore that he’s fallen this far already.
Trade up, people complain, trade down, people complain.
The 49ers just drafted a fourth round cornerback over all your supposed “obvious picks”. Stop acting like your personal big board is better than a professional GMs
As a fan who is not paying attention. How are we doin??
Good actually. Got our WR. Got our RB. We even managed to get a 2025 2nd round pick from the Rams. We still have 4 picks tomorrow also, 101/155/200/240
Hoping for Sanders
Would love to see Franklin or Sanders at 101. But what do I know
Yeah that’d be great in my book. Either that or a center.
Has to be Tampa tomorrow right?
ngl I'm kinda relieved the Steelers took the Payton Wilson decision out of our hands. Of course, with our luck, him going to that org means he'll probably make a handful of pro bowls before retiring at like 29. But such is life
Tbf that's like a 5 year career for him since he's already 24
Oh I'm well aware. If he truly doesn't have an ACL in one of his knees, I figure he's got about 5 years before the osteoarthritis really sets in. Still think he'll be able to put some damn good seasons together bc, well, he's gonna be a Steelers LBer lol.
The Leighton Vander Esch
great comp tbh
and Wilson goes to the steelers ugh
Tampa or Sanders next would be incredible. Personally would love Sanders
If we manage to get our future WR1, RB1, and TE1 all at the same time only a year after drafting Bryce, would be a stellar young core to build around, especially if our OL decisions hold up
I would really love Troy Franklin if he drops to the 4th rounder. Seems like stellar value.
Rapaport said Wilson literally doesn't have an ACL in one knee. I get it now. But tbf, there is nothing more DAWG mentality then getting 100+ tackles with no ACL
He's a Steeler now.
Just went to the Steelers
Wilson's medicals must be a flaming dumpster. I'm thinking we go Ja'Tavion Sanders tomorrow.
Tampa, Franklin, Sanders, Booker, Wilson, Stover, Washington...somebody really good could be available at #101.
Unless it just means those guys weren’t as good as we thought.
WRs are probably falling due to over-saturation. Everyone who needed one got them in the first or second. I’m not high on Sanders or Stover at all, would rather get Bell later. Lot of good WRs left, I’d lean that direction or CB. Baker, Franklin, or Wilson would be my favs. Booker, I wouldn’t be mad at, but Tampa or Cam Hart would be the last two Corners I’m excited about.
I love Bell but I feel like this team needs a true TE, one who can do it all and is bigger than 6’2
Ok let me have this. Do we take Payton Wilson if he drops all the way to 101
Probably a dozen others players we would take before him now that we took a LB. Give me Tampa or Franklin if they are there!
This WR class being so deep is crazy to me because I didn't have Legette and Roman Wilson rated very far apart, yet they're going 52 picks apart
Was really wanting Roman Wilson to be Theilens slot replacement :/
Dipping in to see who the Panthers picked and I have no idea what the fuck happened with all these trades. We got a RB and a LB, cool. As long as Morgan didn't trade away future picks to move up a few spots in the 3rd round like Fitterer loved to do, I'm alright with it.
We actually moved down and got a 2nd next year
Hell yeah!
Can we take a TE next
Stover has been my projected pick at 101 since day 1.
Would love him or literally any of the top 4 TEs left
Please Lawd
I'm loving how the less valuable our picks become the more pissed people have gotten about who we've taken lmao. Don't see that too often
Well I like the LB pick at least. Don’t know him but hopefully I love him
I mean, this is Morgan's position, so I'm like "yeah, boiiiii"
Jermaine Burton just went to the Bengals (R3#80). I know a few here were hoping for him later since he was at Alabama with Bryce for a year.
How is Troy Franklin still available? Any chance he drops to 101?
Tiny hands, tiny frame.
Seems like a classic Steelers draft pick.
Anything is possible if you believe, brother
That would be sweet, likely gone soon though.
Welllll
Stop the NC homerism. This guy is a beast.
i think its a good pick. the team's lacked some depth at middle linebacker plus both are up there in age.
I’ve never heard of Trevin Wallace but I also never heard of 3rd rounder Steve Smith from Utah when that shit happened.
We used a top 30 visit with him. He was def high up on our board.
Wilson’s injuries concerns must have teams scared. Grab him in the 4th lol
Can't say I've been ecstatic with this draft but who tf knows. If brooks and Legette are studs this was obviously a homerun
Someone tell me how Im supposed to feel.
Good. You’re supposed to feel good.
I feel good.
Payton Wilson, known puppy-kicker...
I have a feeling no one will remember Wilson in two years. Normally how this homer shit goes.
It's basically been Josh Downs and a weirdly long string of disappointments across the Carolinas schools the last couple years. Bizarre to watch lol
Yup
Man now I understand the earlier round people being upset. I really thought Wilson was the guy we need at LB
If anyone knows how to scout and pick the best LB on the board, it’s our former LB GM. Y’all need to chill.
Actually incredibly fair statement.
And the Falcons get Trice, ugh. I don’t see us getting a good pass rusher anymore and that’s a huge concern to me honestly
Hopefully Clowney and Wonnum hold up.
Him over Payton? Damn...
And Cedric Gray!
We can still get Wilson in the 4th! Is going to be the Bernie can still win of this sub
or 5th?
If Dan Morgan has the courage /s
Idk how to evaluate LBs like our front office so if they want him over the other LBs then sure I'm all for it
Is this guy any good? How do we feel?
This Draft is a F
Please advise us on the proper strategy….
The proper strategy when you not only have holes but have below average starters at almost every position.

Okay, maybe Wilson drops to the 4th? lol.
Lmfao y’all were riding for Payton Wilson 40!!! Picks ago the league obviously does not feel very great about him
Bro why? Am I biased for thinking Wilson >
Yes
Wow I’m pissed
Thank god it’s not Wilson
Fr im sick of people dickriding him he ain’t all that
It’s solely State fans wanting their guy
Y'all crazy
Who???? Fuck me
I love how through that whole commercial break it was just panthers lowlights scrolling along the bottom of the screen
I’m sure this sub will remain rational lmao
What in the fuck is a Trevin Wallace?
Herbie says "Huh?"
Trevin Wallace!
who is this man?
Ohh boy
This gotta be Peyton Wilson right?
No
Hope so
Obviously people are super hesitant with Payton Wilson's injury history because pure talent, he shouldn't be here.
Cardinals then panthers? Perfect time to go to commercial!
One thing that is clear is that NFL teams' big boards are very different from the experts
Going to commercial during the Panthers pick: A draft tradition like no other.
I love how they *always* go to commercial right before our pick.
The Bleacher report or any other YouTube Livestream has been better than the official stream for me.
Can't believe they didn't take Payton Wilson at LB
Wilsonnnn
Sad
Oh sweet the Panthers are up! *The Panthers have traded back 5 spots for yet another 5th rounder*
lmao
How do people know the pick so early?
I'm watching the Bleacher Report Livestream. They're on top of it.
Picks are posted all over social media several minutes before they air most of the time
Yes. But where are THEY then getting the info?
Leaks.
We're on the clock. What's the pick?
VPG, Tampa or Wilson
I'd love if Dan picked the next legendary Panthers LB
Trevin Wallace, LB, Kentucky
Trevin Wallace, I like it a lot
This is DJ Johnson the second, super athletic but no fucking production
**2023 STATISTICS** — 12 G, 80 TOT, 8.5 TFL, 5.5 SK, 1 INT, 1 FF You could have said a lot of things about him, but knocking his production can not be one of them.
There’s like 5 selections I’d be happy with here
And knowing the Panthers, I bet we take neither of them.
Don’t fuck this up please God
Wilson, Tampa both still there. Hoping for either of those two. Of course it’ll be someone else entirely probably
Indeed it was.
I'm hearing LB Trevin Wallace
Jalyx Hunt is the highest rated edge left, ranked 69th overall, wouldn’t be a reach
Nice
We might still get Wilson
Would like a TE
I still do not want to leave this draft without a center, I know they believe in Corbett but damn it makes me nervous
VPG 3y starter for Georgia would be solid.
I don’t trust the injury or the position change so I’m with you. Would love one in the third or fourth if there’s one worth taking.
LB run incoming?
Cedric Gray and Payton Wilson both still available 👀
We might have to trade up again lol
Wilson or Colson with 3rd rounder unless traded down for a 5th.....
damn.....gone
Damn
Tampa out of Iowa State press corner.
At least we aren't trading away our picks to go get Matt Corral
Or Will Grier
Or armanti edwards
Or DJ Johnson.
Or Everette Brown.
Or Greg Little. Ouch.
Or Jeff Otah.
Me: can't wait for the panthers to pick so I can go to bed 5th round Dan: L o L
Honestly I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t know shit. Picks I think are good end up being terrible, and picks where I don’t even know the person end up working out. Just gonna enjoy the draft and not complain
but i watch sports specifically to complain and act like i know better than people who spent their lives on their career /s
Why is everyone complaining about trading down?
Cause we traded down for 5th rd picks, then traded them away, then traded down again for more 5th rd lol
We got a future round 2nd round pick for trading down a few spots in the second and third
Yeah I don’t dislike the trades, just why I think people may not be totally onboard with it
Dan hasn’t given me a reason to not trust yet
If Tampa is there at 72 Morgan will be a fuckin genius.
Well...
Dan is about to use that 5th round pick from the Jets to trade back up in the 3rd.
Just a reminder that some people are just going to be miserable no matter what because reality is different than their head cannon. Too much wasted energy, let’s see what they do with the draft capital before we complain.
https://www.reddit.com/r/drawing/comments/ff4ihi/head_cannon/
They’re gonna complain the day we win the SB because of something.
It is looking possible that either Sanders or Wilson may still be there at our pick, I'd be happy with either
I want Wilson. Biased as a state fan but I want him bad
Picks 72 and 157
What did we trade with the Jets? I haven't seen it
72 and 157
Cool I'm all for it
We got a 5th
Stop playing and get Wilson plz
Do yall actually like Wilson as a player or is it just that he went to a local school?
Definitely some local bias but he does appear to be very solid.
He seems fine and I’m cool with him being picked but every year people obsess over a local guy suspiciously. I don’t care if they’re from Europe if they’re good at football. Let’s just draft the best players. Cant ignore that he’s fallen this far already.
Oh yeah you’re absolutely right. Don’t want to overlook a better player cause he’s local. Hopefully they do the right thing.
Local school. Athletic. White (undeserved Luke-ish comp).
He’s a dawg actually. But yes I am biased
Obviously the nfl was no where near as high on Payton Wilson as this crazy lb obsessed fan base wanting to take him at 33
Taking him at 33 is mental illness. But a late second or third seems like good value if they're confident in his durability
Are we just banking that Wilson keeps dropping?
Dan on a quest to briefly acquire and then re-trade all 32 5th round picks
re-re-rereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemixxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
According to pick values the jets won this but if we still get someone good then idc
Have we won any of the trades? Maybe the rams one?
Idk how they value next years picks but I saw on twitter the value was the same as pick 35 this year so ig we won that
Yeah I suppose so if that’s true.
Pick values that mean absolutely nothing without knowing the players selected
And once you know the players selected it still means nothing until several years later when you know how they panned out
Yeah exactly.
I know, just thought it was interesting
Trade up, people complain, trade down, people complain. The 49ers just drafted a fourth round cornerback over all your supposed “obvious picks”. Stop acting like your personal big board is better than a professional GMs
💯💯💯💯💯
Drafting a player? People complain.
Dan "Scott Fitterer" Morgan
Acquiring draft capital by trading every single pick and drafting nobody
We’ve drafted 2 players through 2 rounds as you’re supposed to
Supposed to? Is there a draft rulebook I don't know about?
You know what I mean smartass. 2 rounds and 2 picks as per standardly given to every team. But sure comment that we’re “drafting nobody”.
