Just football news, not pandemic related

this is not a great CB class. I can't see them drafting many, but there are a lot of decent free agents to take a shot on. They also seem to be bringing in a ton of guys to compete.

Me too, Synric heard the Bears might cut Leonard Floyd, would love to get that LB in here.

If we want to go CB in FA Bradley Roby seems like a nice fit and re-sign Dennard for the Slot.

We'll have to see who they sign in FA, but it would take a special set of circumstances for us to take a CB with 33. Baun, Queen, and Murray
would have to be gone. And maybe Gladney falls? 

With the defense claiming to now be a 3-4 hybrid, a draft investment in Safety would also make perfect sense.  Shawn Williams is in the final year of his contract.  He's been steady, but never a "wow" type of player.  If either McKinney or Delpit happen to be sitting there at 33, it would seem like a no-brainer to me.  If the front seven guy you covet is there at 33, then any of Winfield Jr., Ashtyn Davis, Jeremy Chinn, or Kyle Dugger at 65 or 97 would be a great value addition to the defense.

If they really want a CB, there should be a few good ones in the 3rd round.  My gut instinct says that they would rather wait, and grab a 1st round Corner, in next year's draft.

Agreed, I think the best value will be a small number of corners that should be 3rd round worthy.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Roby needs to go to Zimmer, who was the ultimate in resurrecting dead CBs.  That guy went top 10, didn't he?  Leonard Floyd?  Interesting...an edge rushing guy...Makes sense.  And a former first rounder.  If the deal is right???  I love the idea of a veteran LB that has NFL experience and has shown solid play, and although I was thinking more of a coverage guy for depth with Vigil and Pratt, a draft pick will likely be that selection.

Roby isn't a dead CB Racer lol

We are going to a 3-4 hybrid, Floyd might be a perfect fit.

Baun, Gaither, Dye, Brooks, Queen, lots of good cover backers in this Draft.

Ha ha good stuff.

BTW, after really thinking over Floyd I think he might not be what we need at LB.

With going to more of a 3-4 hybrid he is pretty much the same as Hubbard and Lawson just not as good.

We want an inside Linebacker from what I am seeing. Nigel Bradham is now my vote.

Just FYI: In the mocks I've seen all 3 Baun, Queen and Murray all go in the 1st round. As does Delpit...
