Side Note: I'll start the All-Star game thread this weekend.

So much for being a SENIOR bowl, eh?

They should rename it at this point.

This years Chase Brown. UCF RB RJ Harvey.

RJ Harvey is a Top 45 prospect in the 2025 #NFLDraft. His vision and jump cut ability is next level. Reminds me of a combination of Nick Chubb and Josh Jacobs. @rjharvey07 pic.twitter.com/nmrmuLW8Y1

The Mullet Mauler Tate Ratledge is the ideal fit for the Bengals at RG and he is a Team Captain. Probably have to take him at #49 though.

Tate Ratledge is a ferocious offensive line prospect for 2025 ?

Georgia has absolute DAWGS on the offensive line ? pic.twitter.com/NCZWdWhzGO

I can't wait to see Fannin in the Sr. Bowl. I'm rooting for the MAC players!

And already has a working relationship with Amarius Mims? Hell yeah!

Tate Ratledge just screams a high floor safe prospect. He's a guy that can start week one as a rookie and it wouldn't be surprising when he's still starting in his mid/late 30s. He's Kevin Zeitler.

So draft him high, let him walk after 4 years, then bemoan it for the next decade?

This thread went empty in a hurry.

I don't know about 4 years from now, I am focused on 2 t 5 months from now and off season is a time for optimism for gullible me.

Also add USC RB Woody Marks to that

[DYT_Bengal]

Darius Alexander (Toledo, DT) from Wayne is worth a look in the later rounds, is somewhat limited but has some pass rush moves.

Lott made a lot of plays against SEC talent, I wonder if we need that type of Dline in the early rounds after who we drafted last year.
