2024 1 Chop Robinson 21 DE 2024 2 Patrick Paul 55 OT 2024 4 Jaylen Wright 120 RB 2024 5 Mohamed Kamara 158 DL 2024 6 Malik Washington 184 WR 2024 6 Patrick McMorris 198 DB 2024 7 Tahj Washington 241 WR I think a lot of Dolphins fans had mixed feelings and disappointment about this draft because it didn't address any positions of immediate need and is largely backfilling positions of relative strength(or otherwise didn't need to be address this year. Some people are mad about no IOL or Christian Wilkins replacement, I was annoyed with ignoring TE again. That being said I think the logic is pretty sound and the value pretty good(especially in the third day). Malik Washington in the 6th for this offense? Hell yeah that rules.

I loved our day 2-3 on reflection. I like chop and the upside but I just really think Barton fills huge needs at RG and adds line flexibility. Maybe they’ve got something in the works or maybe it just typical rumor mill nonsense but we’ll see. Off-season isn’t over yet, and I like the 5th and 6th round picks a lot - expect them to be on the 53

You're arguing at cross purposes. An owner being a loving clown and over ruling his room doesn't mean scouts and GMs give a gently caress about twitter rumours or that they have an impact on draft rooms. But again. The prevalence of loving clowns doesn't mean it has no impact on a teams final decision. So in other words... dumb owners of dumb teams do dumb things regardless of twitter. Colts GM is still right. It's a lovely thing to do to anonymously poo poo all over someone trying to get drafted on the basis of content.

I like this cut up my team did of the draft class https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8jFigqcHT4 I also like that the Panthers took a big steaming piss right in Jerry Jones' face https://www.tiktok.com/embed/7362218618697862442 While I know there has been many a contentious thing in this draft and offseason. Jerry Jones having his favourite prospect stolen is amazing. Its even more amazing, at least in my opinion that Morgan managed to trade back with LA, pick up a 2nd rounder next year. Then trade up with Indy at the cost of - gently caress all in order to do so.

These are not rational, emotionally mature people. Owners flying off the handle and upending their draft board over a tweet is completely believable.

Brooks picked way way too early for my tastes, would've much preferred Benson or Wright but he'll do work for them, and Sanders seemed like decent value there. Nothing too thrilling, but with limited draft capital they got some guys who can contribute. I still think they'll be terrible next year but a slight improvement doesn't seem like too much to expect.

Yeah I read that whole article, it's funny because I actually expected NFL folks to be a lot less strident about it than the media, who desperately needed something to talk about after an extremely chalk first round. And they are, to an extent. But I don't get why one would say it would be a terrible outcome for Penix to outplay Cousins and earn the starting role. That would be great. That's exactly why you double up at the most important position. Money is spent, cap goes up, but a great long-term QB is literally priceless in this game. The terrible outcome would be Penix is extremely bad and never contributes to the team in any meaningful way. That would be a disaster. The other thing is just massive sunk cost fallacy which I'd think NFL execs would be smart enough to not give credence to.

It speaks to a completely broken process Again, Penix will be 24 in a week. If you are drafting a QB to compete with and take over for Cousins you want a young one so that sitting him a couple years doesnt have him starting his age 27 season for the first time. If you on the other hand thought Penix was ready to compete right now there was zero loving reason to pay Kirk Cousins anything, much less 100 million US dollars, because 1) thats money you could spend on free agent weapons for Penix or your defense and 2) you knew* no one was taking Penix at anything like as high as 8 but you, so you didn't need to have insurance policy with Cousins People don't usually (maybe ever) double up on QBs by signing a high dollar free agent AND a top 10 draft pick, they either have the high dollar guy (usually already, not one who's never taken a snap for them like with Cousins in Atlanta) and use a low first round or later pick on their replacement (the Packers when they drafted Love), OR they have a high draft pick and sign a possibly-useful veteran cheap QB for competition/teaching (the Panthers now with Young and Dalton). The falcons did both which is objectively stupid because even if one of those two QBs turns out to be great you hampered the rest of your roster by tying up so much capital in a position you can only play one player at at any given time. * I am assuming they knew this. If they actually believed there was any chance at all that someone would trade up higher than 8 to snatch Penix from them, they are even dumber than I think they are.

I don't think it was a smart move and is bad team building, but I also think the Penix age thing is a little overblown. If he's 27 when he starts and plays until Kirk's age that's still a 9 year window.

Age concerns are way different for QBs than other positions. If they think hes QBOTF and they will only get 1.5 years of cousins then who gives a poo poo if he starts age 26-27. If he's good you're still getting 9-10 years of good qb play

Age isn't the concern it's that a QB of Penix' caliber probably doesn't want to sit 3-4 years

In practical terms it doesn't matter that much about the money for the first two years where you're fine to sit penix - even if you're worried about age. By the time he starts he has a 10 year clock before he's as old as cousins is now. His injury history probably doesn't project to a super long career though. But I mean... even if you want to break down the big bad numbers if they cut Cousins after year 2 it's 25 mill hit, 12 mill in year 4. With Rookie salaries being what- 12 to 13 mill per year. It's not that bad of a cap hit to have 37 and 25 mill per year at QB. Thats about what Baker / Goff / Carr are being paid now. You can obviously make the argument about the loss of another player they could have drafted in Penix's slot - sure but gently caress, who cares we see first rounders fail for a myriad of reasons. The big issue as I see it, is that it looked a lot like it blindsided Cousins and you don't want that mess in your locker room before the process even starts and that Arthur Blank was completely blindsided by it which kind of hinders your prospects of the plan working out too, at least if the return isn't obvious and a good one. That level of dice roll is a career killer if you can't keep kirk slinging it happily and Penix doesn't come out and kill it when given a chance. The real comedy potential I guess that Kirk gets injured this year - lets say around week 8 and Penix comes out and loving slays it and then you're paying your back up in yr 2 45 million dollars while he seethes on the sidelines and wants a trade no ones going to take on.

It definitely blindsided Cousins. I forget where I saw it but supposedly they called him while they were on the clock to be like “hey buddy, we uh, got some news for you……”. They were terrified of their plan leaking and missing out.
