Atlanta.
Wouldn't rule it out. I'd have to see their draft first, but the schedule isn't brutal. Injuries can't hit like last year as the roster isn't deep. Injuries were the absolute killer last year.

Ed Werder reports than most teams feel like Texans will trade out of pick, and ATL looks as if they could be the team knocking. Wonder if Detroit and ATL and Tex could work out a three team swap?

Carolina Panthers. Will struggle to be .500 and miss out on the playoffs.
Not sure if this was mentioned before the Seahawks talent evaulator resigned. Could be a big loss (at least this 49er fan is hoping).

Meh not a big deal. Their search for players consists of guys who can beat a piss test or at least complain that his sample was tampered with. Browner couldn't hack it, that's why he isn't there.

I could see those aged RBs struggle behind a bad OL like Atlanta did last year. Especially with no one on the roster right now that scares anyone out wide.

I think Cam is going to struggle big time. Yes same system as last season and he still has Olsen. However losing 4 wide receivers is going to hurt Cam's progression.

Sounds like the Falcons are gonna move up for Clowney.
What do the Falcons fans on here think?
Personally, it's dumb, they got in this position because of bad drafting, and bad depth. Trading up for Clowney wont change that. They arent one player away.
If they could somehow do it, while keeping their 2nd, you could argue it's fair, but that pick is the deal-breaker if i'm Houston.

Depends on cost. I'm not a fan of giving up the second because that's a potential starter.
I'm also not opposed to giving up picks next year because the window for the Falcons best shot at a superbowl is small.

To add to the Niners offseason, Davis has shoulder surgery. Should be fine for the season but he's not participating in offseason workouts so there may be a fitness concern.

Not a fan, we need to land multiple starters from this draft, and quality depth. Our missing on DL\OL in the past 4 years has just crippled us. The OL HAS to be better just because everyones healthy. We were hit with an injured reserve brick last year and never recovered. I think our LBs can serve, but we need someone to compete at RT, OLB (Rush spot), FS, and a wr and rb for depth and thats just at minimum. I read where we were looking hard at Bruce Ellington, which I would be a huge fan of. He is a great athlete and strong returner that would give us a real weapon in the slot. I'd like to see HD shopped for a pick.

I can't be the only one who isn't excited for the draft?

I
I'm excited that I won't have to hear about it anymore
Huh, you don't enjoy fans talking about players they've never seen before and whether or not they were good picks?

Semi excited since Bucs are at 7 but pushing the draft back was a horrible move....I think most people are sick of all the nonsense by now.
