Day 2 Dreaming

Probably not. They pick at the end of round 3, correct? I wouldn't have my sights sets on any one player because you'll sit and watch them go one by one before Minnesota picks. Almost impossible to project who will be there.

DJ Best Remaining

Maybe DL Shemar Turner?

I think Will Johnson is likely to drop to day 3 or even be a UDFA. We had talked about the medicals, but they are really bad.  He effectively had a procedure where they took cartilage from his good knee and put it in the bad knee. For normal individuals this procedure lasts 10 years. 2 football players have had the procedure and no longer played football after having it. 

Qwesi talked about hitting 4 solid picks.  I think they have plans and will be solid players. Safety, Cb, TE, Rb are positions we can look at.

We can go anywhere. Whoever is highest remaining on the board. Alexander would be a great get. Continue the commitment to the trenches.

Now the question becomes... does Kwesi trade a future 2nd and one of his picks today for a 2nd and a late round pick?

With his Wall Street background, picks today mean more than future picks a year from now if there are assets (talented players) we like for this team.

It'll be interesting if we try to get into the top half of Round 2 or just hold tight until we get to 97 and potentially trade back into Round 4 and add some extra Day 3 picks.

Might be why he's so zealously been protecting those 26 comp picks. Dial up Ohio State again please.

Yeah, we can't trade any 2026 comp picks since those haven't been set yet.  But we can trade 97 (comp pick from Cousins last year)...  If he believes we're getting a 3rd, 4th, and another Day 3 comp pick next year...  We might be more likely to trade a 2026 pick knowing we have 2-3 comp picks coming to offset trading them.

Still plenty of talented players at positions of need available.  Hopefully Kwesi gets a little kwazy if one of these guys slips into striking distance.

I don't really see a reason to continue the raid on our future picks. This is an average draft, and we can fill a lot of our remaining needs with the three picks we have left, FA, and then Rookie FA. Nobody out there really makes me want to lose a 2nd rounder next year at this point.
