It ain't pretty. Think I saw something the other day that to this point, 43% of our snaps are scheduled to be free agents. We're going to have to rely/hope on you guys stepping up in some instances, but we just need depth almost across the board at a minimum.

always scarier reading through them before free agency...
we'll retain some guys and add some other guys and then there'll be a lot of changes to all those needs

either way - seems like a good draft to be wanting to improve your OL and RB talent...

its slightly more pronounced this year because we've had such massive contributions from Clowney and KVN as well as having Madubuike, Pierce, Queen and Stone all hitting free agency in the same year

a lot of questions will be answered by the end of march
 
Sports Illustrated put up a 3 round draft, with the Ravens picking last.
Round 1: Cooper DeJaun DB Iowa
Round 2: Kris Jenkins DL Michigan
Round 3: Christian Mohogany OL Boston College

Would want an OL before the third, but Mohogany actually looks like a real diamond in the rough. And DeJaun does feel like a perfect fit.

Bring me the white CB. Let's make history.
 
I thought there weren't going to be any great prospects this year, but what I'm seeing is that there is a lot of depth, it seems like a good year to accumulate picks and find contributors in all positions.
I liked Jayden Hicks as a safety in a 3rd round (a Kyle Hamilton 2.0 who needs more experience and training)
moose muhamad wr in round 5, a more physical type of duvernay. dylan laube rb from new hampshire in 7/udfa a kind of danny woodhead I think is ideal for the Monken system, in 1 round, depending on where we choose I like tvondre swet dt Texas, in 5/6 round Jack Sawyer edge from ohio state.
I need to find cb, but I didn't look hard enough. interesting draft

if there's not a lot of elite talent then it's a great year to be stuck at the bottom of the 1st round
 
The Official 2024 NFL Draft Order following Week 18. The Bears have the first overall pick virtue of the Bryce Young trade from the Panthers, and also own the 9th pick in the Draft. Going to be interesting to see how some of these teams in the top half handle their QB situation. Could end up dropping some good players down the board.

1. Bears (Via Panthers)
2. Commanders
3. Patriots
4. Cardinals
5. Chargers
6. Giants
7. Titans
8. Falcons
9. Bears
10. Jets
11. Vikings
12. Broncos
13. Raiders
14. Saints
15. Colts
16. Seahawks
17. Jaguars
18. Bengals
 
Doesnt feel like a particularly special 1st round
but does feel pretty deep which benefits us as a team guaranteed to be picking no higher than 28th
 
also fun little tidbit ive noticed... the texans can improve their draft pick by beating the browns because their 1st round pick is the browns 1st round pick... they win in more than just 1 way if they can overcome the browns on saturday
 
starting to get a general sense for the class and how i feel about certain positions

WR and OL are looking pretty strong

DL and EDGE looking pretty sparse (especially DL)

lots of RBs with interesting qualities, but not an inspiring class overall
