right on !! I still think AR has an opportunity, but man, its a very hard position to play at this level and patience for fans and organizations are not for everyone it seems, I think the issue was not having a strong conviction to just have a better choice than Minshew in 2023, so many teams just screw this process up and the player gets the short end of the stick becuse of lack of organizational directions (Bears included until this year)

About this Scenario: You have 2 2nd rounders.......TRADE UP for Carter !!! oooooh boy, that would be dandy, I think he goes 4th to Vrabel who is loading up defensively right now

I would be SHOCKED if Daniel Jones can beat out AR, but I understand the idea behind the signing, some of the early noise I read was it was an automatic starter, hardly the case imo. Those 3 QBs are not allowed, sorry to tell ya, but you already know that, you could of had MITCH, he still slinging it. Must of struck a nerve if you felt the need to try to somehow get even dig on the Bears QB situation over the years, however, you used 3 poor choices on your attempt. Mitch was your guy, you missed on that one. Gotta Aim better my friend !! 🙂 Cutler very successful stats and playoffs, Orton has a adequate years for a 4th rounder, EPIC Neck Beard !! Rex super bowl starting QB.....

WOW, Colts Nation already bailing on a Top 10 pick going into year 3? YIKES If you think Daniel Jones is the answer of AR, DOUBLE YIKES....... He was drafted 4th overall, is 22 years old, takes time to develop at this level and AT THAT POSITION, I understand some of the immaturity last year, but to think Daniel Jones should be the starter of AR then Ballard needs to resign right away because that would be an ALL TIME blunder. My guess is DJ is a good addition from Colts Brass to push AR and to help his development plus AR history already of some injury concerns early in his career @Bash Riprock Music to my ears

I would agree, if you sit in zone and the other team decides to do stall ball, then that is a counter and the zone D needs to adjust or be ok with the choice Whats next, stopping play every time a close shot clock violation? can't go to the monitor.......

AI reason below AI Overview Learn more Mason Graham is currently rated higher than Kenneth Grant in the 2025 NFL Draft primarily due to his higher projected draft position, more complete skillset, and perceived higher ceiling as a pass rusher. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Draft Projections: Graham is widely projected to be a first-round pick, potentially even in the top 10, while Grant is generally projected in the 20-40 overall range. Skillset: While both are strong defensive tackles, Graham is viewed as more of a "complete" player, excelling in both run defense and pass rushing. Grant is known for his strength and run-stopping ability, but Graham is perceived as having more pass-rushing upside. Impact and Performance: Graham has a more established track record of high performance and impact, including being a two-time All-American and a unanimous first-team All-American in 2024. Grant, while impactful, has been in a rotational role at Michigan, while Graham has been a consistent starter. Scouting Reports: NFL draft analysts have praised Graham's "elite run-stuffing ability and disruptive pass-rush skills," as well as his "active hands" and "understanding of how to win with leverage". Grant is described as a "big old wall on the line of scrimmage" with "surprising burst for a player his size". Wrestling Background: Graham's wrestling background is seen as a significant asset, providing him with exceptional hand-fighting and leverage skills. Positional Potential: While both have similar NFL positional potential, Grant is viewed as more of an "immovable object" style player, while Graham is seen as more adept at torquing off blockers.

As it relates to IHSAA basketball tournament, not just in general is my understanding by Mr. Harrell

Mason Graham at 10 could be someone I could get behind, very disruptive DT Kenneth Grant at 10 would not be, but if they decide after this FA frenzy that they still want to go with DT (I don't after signings today of DT from ATL ) then do so later in Round 1. I think if somehow Graham is there at 10, it would make sense, but how does the Coaches feel about Booker? I mean, he was taken in 5th in 24 as a very raw, talented active YOUNG player, who if stayed in Kansas this year could be graded out 1st/2nd round from chatter last year, so if Coaches feel like that is where Austin Booker is trending then makes no sense to draft Graham in my opinion. I think both him and Carter at both gone in picks 1-9 personally. Thought Graham and Booker different positions could show what the Bears are thinking overall Left Tackle: Are you sure Braxton Jones on Rookie contract is your best choice at LT ? If so then wouldn't be surprised if Jeanty is the pick, if your still iffy on him, then you are taking Best LT on board at Ten: Campbell, Banks, Simmons?

Love it. If they trade down. Not at 10. Colts friends. @temptation @Bash Riprock @PHJIrish @Irishman Is this guy good ? https://x.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1899170291198443863?t=efQ8opU33u1zHiermPY78Q&s=19

They were fun to watch last year

https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/news/grading-the-chicago-bears-signing-of-center-drew-dalman-in-2025-free-agency 3 years $42 (looks more likely a 2 year deal with the 3rd option) only $28 Guaranteed $14 a year !! Beautiful

Man Chargers ponied up for MACK: $18 a year......mercy

and there has been 2 Scoragami's this boys tournament thus far !!!

This beat guy thinks Pickens is getting traded

They have full buy in from top to bottom, impeccable facilites, 100+ (might closerr to 150 at this point) in their program 9-12. Successful Head coaches on staff to coach position groups across the board. OL Coach Cicero son: https://247sports.com/player/nolan-cicero-46150565/ this will be the highest rated recruit I believe next year: https://247sports.com/playersport/trevor-gibbs-at-crown-point-318748/recruitrankhistory/.

Picture In link I used had him at Center, but natural was G, look for them to sign Dalman ATL tomorrow Correct

Buckle Up NFL fans Its going to be WILD week DaVante Adams 2 years to Rams Bears signing C From ATL and Most likely sounds like THE RETURN OF THE MACK, man he has had a great 2 years in LA back to back years. Josh Allen who had 4 years left on current deal, signed an extension already to make him a $330 Million dollar man, $250 Million Guartateed.

I've seen $18-$21 a year Back up plan could be Raiders Vet get way cheaper. But Dalman should be the one Also have DE Philly Sweet could get a good chunk Having 3 picks in top 43 is helpful on flexibility

this whole thread was pointless from Post 1 thru 8 pages from this guys seat just saying

and with that........ waste of time move along

Not sure Bengals draft capitiol, but with some of the moves, seems likely drafting HEAVY defense and hope they hit on it

and that didn't go so well for them last year either!!! Sounds like 4th rounder not 6th for Tuney

Terry and his daughters reality show is something...... NFL News a bunch of guys traded / getting cap cut..... DK wants a trade Lockett cut Crosby the kicker retired....Cosby the DE 3 year extension.... ACTION week

I think they can get him cheaper, if Bengals need salary dump then draft captial gets cheaper: As seen by Tuney Chiefs Bears trade and DEEBO to Washington as well was very cheap draft captiol because of salary issues
