Can you all imagine being in these guy's shoes? How much freaking fun would it be to live out your dream and play a sport for a living?
It has been some time since we have hit on a rookie CB and S, would be great if Thomas and Demmings turn out to be legit. Think the year we drafted Orlando Thomas and Corey Fuller was the last year we hit on both.
Anyone else absolutely jacked up over this class?

It does seem to have a special quality to it. I fantasized about taking two DLs in our first three picks. Didn't think we'd actually do it, but we did. I predicted Golday in the 2nd. I thought we'd take a center in the 3rd, especially considering we added a third 3rd. But I can see now the wisdom of drafting the guard/tackle over the center. Looks like the Vikings may have been jumped for Gennings Dunker, but Tiernan was getting 1st round love in some early mocks. His arm length is the only reason he was still there. Move him to guard and it's not an issue. Maybe the knowledge that we drafted Tiernan and can cut Fries with zero dead will light a fire under our $80M RG.
Thomas, Bredeson, Demmings and Claiborne are a nice mix of immediate contributors and high-upside sleepers. We may have found our WR5 and Punter among the UDFA class.
With no GM, this was a very coach-driven draft. I hope Teasley follows a similar path in 2027.
