2026 Draft Week Chatter Thread...

[data]

Steelers trade up to draft the WR that they missed with Lemon at our #20 trade

 

[boozeman]

I'll save my anger over LBer until we're done drafting. I'm holding out hope that Winters isn't our only swing at fixing that mess.

No.

 

[Smitty]

I am getting angry.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

But it means we don't HAVE to take one at 92

I mean, we still Need to hunt LBers.

Signs pointing to CB or OT at 92.

OT is a gaping hole rn. Fuck Steele and fuck Guyton. Don't think it's in the Joneses to recognize their own choices have been bad ones.

 

[NoDak]

Damn they are dumb.

Losing their minds for Bernard?

The vast majority of them are just there for the party. They have no idea who that player even is.

We have very little at ILB besides Overshown. Maybe he’s depth.

Love the Winters trade. Still need another LB. Now I’d feel comfortable with Perkins because we got a vet.

 

[boozeman]

Shut up, dork.

Who is the next POS Tarheel that you will put your dick on the table for?

I wouldn't say I love it but it's fine, he's a decent enough bandaid who could start if he has to, but could also slot in behind someone better if we can get them in the 3rd/4th.

Goddamn, @Carp

You have fallen off.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Giving away 5th rounds like we are rich.

Now we are out of the fifth round and out of the sixth round.

We better keep those fourths now. Can't be affording to not restock the youth on this team.

Might trade down with one of the 4ths.

I'm hoping Winters is just a subpackage type guy. He can't be who we are relying on to start in the middle.

Been looking him up a bit. He is a decent LBer for what he is. Which is a cover and fly guy. Not a hammer in the middle.

But my question is, why now? This is a move that's made after the draft. Or at the very least, IN the round of the pick you just traded away. Because, Oh.... I dunno.... You might have found a better guy in the 4th?

 

[Cowboysrock55]

I am getting angry.

I mean I'm not angry but the trade for Winters doesn't do much for me. I guess we got a LBer with a little experience. But probably best as depth. If I'm trading a fifth for a one year rental I'd like to at least look at a guy and see a legit starter. I think he started in San Fran because of injuries.

 

[Smitty]

Shut up, dork.

Who is the next POS Tarheel that you will put your dick on the table for?

Diego Pounds, drunko.

Paxton is one goshdarn mamma's boy. At least Spaulding is trying.

That's my thing, maybe you find a better LBer at pick 92 and don't need to trade for a 227 pound coverage LBer.

But if we like him Kyle Louis is like a badass version of Winters. Maybe we aren't out on the small LBers.
