The Draft is over, seemed it took forever to finally get here. Lots of anticipation because of the QB spot. A few thoughts:

[list]
[*]IMO, got a very good one in JJ McCarthy. Wasn't KOC's first choice, obviously, but he was up there as a plus Plan B option. 
[*]Dallas Turner is going to be a machine on this Flores defense. 
[*]Still concerned about the interior D Line and interior O line. 
[*]Hopeful a gem or two can be pulled from the UDFA pile class of 2024.
[*]Like the Reichard pick for kicker. Gets the ball up faster than most kickers, hence never had a PA or FG blocked in his career.
[*]Lets get Justin Jefferson signed already.
[/list]

Overall, feeling pretty good when its all said and done. Nothing is ever perfect, but I think some cornerstones have been placed. What I can't shake is the feeling the rest of the NFCN is getting legitimately better. And we really won't know what kind of player JJM is going to be for a few years yet. Need to hit on him.

I'm going to be patient in 2024. Its going to be a transition year, all set up and planned for 2025 to be the launch point.

So there's a video that shows KAM and KOC talking just before the Draft kicked off:

KOC: (patting KAM's shoulder) 'I feel like its going to be a good night tonight'.
KAM: 'We're good, we're ready, right?....we've got plans'.
KOC: 'Plans?? We've got plans on plans on plans' (smile on his face, looking down at his notes).

They were prepared for the various contingencies and unpredictability of the Draft.

I'm reading over the last 2 days all this junk about JJM starting, either immediately or after a few weeks: just don't see it. I think the media mob talks themselves into things sometimes.
