Are we starting Omenihu on IR in this scenario? Are we cutting or trading Toney?

Jordan Elliott and Gross-Matos are off the board already Crow, but other than that, seems solid.

I didn't see that. Where did Elliott go? I see Gross-Matos is going to SF and for WAY more than I would have offered.

Curious if anyone has heard anything about Sebastian Joseph-Day? He'd be a nice get at DT IMO.

[Couch-Potato]

I have a feeling Burton is a top candidate at WR to join our Chiefs.

I like the addition of interior line depth in the 5th, we're going to need it now that Allegretti got paid. Good for him!

I want us to nab one of those Sr Bowl performers in the trenches, either Jefferson at DT or Jones at OT.

Can you please share more about your last 5 picks? I'm curious to hear more.

Fautanu is a beast, but at 43, I feel like we are giving up two firsts with the depth of this draft and how it aligns with team needs. But Fautanu is a top 10 pick in any other year, so maybe it's worth. I think I would want to see if I could get there using 64 though. But the mark of a good negotiation is everyone walking away unhappy, so it's probably about right. Nice mock.

I didn't watch Washington much this year. I did tune into the NC game against Michigan. Mostly to watch the WR's for Washington. The one thing about the game that stood out to me was Michigan's D-Line kicking the crap out of Washington's O-Line. Was Fautanu holding up on his end?

The dude was serving pancakes all day long in the run game and stoning guys in the pass game. He gave up a couple of pressures to Brainden McGregor but that's all. He played really ****ing good.

Whew! I just remember thinking the D-line from Michigan was owning the Washington O-line. I had stuff going on that night, and didn't get to tune in early. Penix was under massive pressure nearly every play I saw. I didn't pay attention to particular players, as I was wanting to watch the WR's from the Huskies. That's where most of my attention was.

They just so happen to have some videos out there now of him specifically.

[Coogs]

Thanks! I will check them out!

My weird fixation lately has been trying to bring in Callais Campbell on a one year deal. If he wants to chase a ring he could come in on a vet minimum. He was productive last year with 6.5 sacks and would be a big gap filler to go along with Jones in the middle.

Kinda flirted with the idea too, he's an ageless wonder. But he'll ask for too much I'm guessing. Feel like I say this about everyone but this FA has just had silly money.
