2026 NFL Draft Gameday Thread

[Latentluv]

Ja'kobi Lane is a good pick

 

[rossihunter2]

ok

not who i thought we'd like but i really like Lane

 

[SepticeyePoe]

Oh no, they said he has drop issues

 

[rossihunter2]

he's a big dude who can move

another guy with a bit of attitude

 

[allblackraven]

OK

 

[UPennChem]

I actually hate that pick. Not just because I wanted other positions. Dont even like the player

 

[Argentina Raven]

Wow, nice. I wasn't expecting it, but I like it. Big body, long arms, will be a big help in the red zone.

 

[Latentluv]

Oh no, they said he has drop issues

Julio Jones also has drop issues coming out of college

 

[JO_75]

Well I'll say this... I trust this coaching staff to get more out of these players compared to Harbaugh and his coaching staff. So these wide receiver selections might actually pan out.

 

[Grim]

Oh no, they said he has drop issues

Drop issues? I may be thinking of the wrong guy, but I didn't think he had drop issues. He sucks against press. Like bad.

 

[Simba]

I'm a Lane supporter. May not have been my top guy available but I like his long term prospects.

 

[JO_75]

I agree with Rich, we should trade back up just to have Ingram go back up on the stage and roast the Steelers again.

 

[Nurps]

The announcers on NFL network just love mark Ingram

 

[UPennChem]

We've not drafted guys like Lane, almost ever

 

[Grim]

I agree with Rich, we should trade back up just to have Ingram go back up on the stage and roast the Steelers again.

Man, trading up for Hect in the 3rd to get him out there to roast the Steelers would be elite. It would be even better if it is the final pick in the 3rd.

 

[UPennChem]

Also kinda absurd, missing 2 TEs and a C, EDC said I'll gladly take an atypical WR

 

[JoeyFlex5]

He reminds me so much of Isaiah likely. The change of direction is incredibly similar, sneaky ability to just plant the foot at moderate speed and cut back in one step, and you never expect it when it happens.

Tough runner too.

And the ball skills are the obvious thing.

If he can take that change of direction ability and build a route game with it, he can be something. Really like the dynamic he adds after losing Likely and also having a very thin WR corps with a slot-like guy as WR1

That said I think Elijah sarratt is a cleaner and more ready prospect than Lane, who also brings size and ball skills

 

[cobrajet]

I don’t hate the pick, we need a decent receiver. He looks intriguing.

 

[QtR Nevermore]

Is a catch point receiver a good fit with Lamar? He only threw Hopkins 1 pass a week even though he caught everything.

Yeah this makes no sense to me
