Who is your "no, just no" guy in the 1st round?

I could see it going something like this:
1. Vega, OG
2. Bernard, WR
3a. Scott, DB
3b. Tiernan, OT
3c. Allar, QB

Well have to move up in the second to grab him but yes Bernard in the second would be like taking 8 Boner Bears at once!!!

I referenced one mock of 2022 done right after the 2021 draft. Rattler and Howell 1 & 2, 5 QBs taken in the top 15.

Rattler had only completed his redshirt freshman season at the time of the 2021 draft. But some mock draft by God knows who had him going #1 overall in 2022? OK. Can't imagine how that didn't pan out.

Agreed…
I do like using a third on Bell from Connecticut to fill that role..
However, it looks like the young man is really moving up the draft chart recently.. if we want him, we might have to use the second round on him and I’d rather have a solid run stopper, especially at inside linebacker to fill our second round slot

Bryce Lance Dino?

Iheanachor is a right tackle, not left. At left tackle he will be a huge project - Iheanachor was one of the players I was thinking of when I made this comment earlier in the thread:

He would start at guard first year.

Berm is right on Simpson. No dice. He is also right about Proctor. One of the Steeler podcasts had pictures of Proctor at his pro day. He wasn't carrying a lot of bad weight. The scouts there were saying he looked and performed very well. I also agree with Berm and kick him inside to guard. Just his size alone would open up running lanes. With Jones and Cook at tackle, you can afford to take somebody developmental at T in later rounds, like Markel Bell from the U or Burke from Memphis, who are both monsters.
My first round wish list is Ionae, Proctor (G), or Kayden McDonald (NT).
2nd rd. Haulcey (S), Bernard (WR), or Rutledge(G) if my two in the first round are gone.
3rd round 3a picks Bell (WR) or Branch (WR). 3b pick Scott (CB) The U. 3c. Golday (LB) Cincy. or Big Citrus (ISU)

The point was, draft predictions a year out are folly.

I have been married to a redhead for nearly thirty years. I have no soul left for berm.

Yes, folly is some draft nerd saying that a redshirt freshman with one season of starting experience is going to be the next first overall pick. A much more accurate prediction can be made about the 2027 QB class with Manning and Moore, who both are entering their fourth seasons of college football. That's the point.
