2025 NFL Draft Gameday Thread

I hope we get Tory Horton

why couldn't we have taken farmer... especially this late in the draft

who cares if he doesnt play more than 4 years if there was a medical issue...

We needed a LB to cut this preseason more than we needed Joshua farmer

 

[Rusfan]

You’re right. That’s saying these picks hold the same value as a round and a half later

Because they do. Everything after round 3 is a total crapshoot

For the ravens, yeah

 

[Davesta]

Fucking awful trade terms. We move down 5 spots in the 4th to move up 5 spots in the 6th?

Watch that new 6th rounder is our kicker pick

 

[Rusfan]

They get too confident and over-trust their own evaluations on Day 3. It's annoying

As opposed to not trusting your own evals?

Lots of good players are drafted on Day 3 every year but we won't find them if we don't even care enough to try

 

[Sandtown]

It's still a loss though. Even if the grade's the same you still have positions of greater need. Take that rather than make a trade for no gain.

I guess. Usually the ravens will like trade out of the pick if they have plenty of players rated the same on the board and feel like at least one of the players they like will be available later on. I guess it's a way to make them feel better about their pick selection when there less players the like in certain round isn't available

EDC talks a good game about the role of luck in the draft but then he picks on Day 3 as if he has all the answers.

Trust your evaluations with a bit of humility and understanding that there's some wisdom and value in the consensus too.

on the clock again

 

[rossihunter2]

[QtR Nevermore]

I'm ready to be hurt again

 

[Davesta]

There is not really a "general consensus". Its basically at this point down to "who has the most fixable flaws" and that is a complete guess so you just find the best players for your scheme and hope that they can be coached up. Everyone has their own opinions on how much to weigh certain flaws and what is fixable and what is not.

[Rusfan]

Carson Vinson is HUGE good lord

 

[QtR Nevermore]

[Rusfan]

Wow Howell traded for a 5th!

Vinson is raw but huge upside
