Athletic mock

1. Washington Commanders: James Pearce Jr., edge, Tennessee

As is the case with the top spot in the draft overall, the No. 1 edge ranking is up for grabs — and the winner of that race very well could be the first pick next spring.

Pearce, a twitched-up, long, 6-foot-4, 245-pound burner is firmly in both discussions. He led the SEC with a 21.8 percent win rate (No. 2 among Power 4 returning players), 52 pressures and 14 1/2 sacks last season. Pearce has to back that up in 2024, but he’ll be tough to top if he does. — Nick Baumgardner

Going to be scared from the fake Predator for a decade when it comes to EDGE folks admittedly. However it falls if an OT is a reach where ever they pick sure they could use an edge.

God Help Us if we pick #1 overall, WHEN we actually have “the QB”.

Trade the f*** outta 1OA. Be the Bears, for once.

JD going down early then yeah would not look at the #1 overall being out of reach. He's the entire xfactor of the season. Sort of feeling the 6 to 12 draft range.

If we're drafting 1OA, everything's gone to shit.

That said, I'm in the "no thanks" to the high pick on DE camp. It's said to be next-highest value to a QB, but it seems every bit as boom or bust as QB, and it feels like there are more mid-to-late round guys who excel there than highly-drafted dude. (Yes, 100% still applying ointment to some Chase Young burns -- but how is the Jags' Trayvon Walker pick looking?)

I'm not a fancy stat-head or analyst-type-object, but OT seems more valuable because he's responsible for keeping the QB alive, protecting him from the opponents' mid- to late-round stud DE. (See what I did there?)

Montez Sweat's pity party continues with another Commanders' swipe — Riggo's Rag

Nobody is looking back, apart from Montez Sweat. Aug 29, 2024 The Washington Commanders are moving into an exciting new era with very few traces of the previous regime remaining. Everything across the franchise looks and feels different. Adam Peters' roster revamp brought fresh faces aplenty...

NFL Agent Says Aaron Rodgers Isn't a Team Player: Jets Are in 'Complete Disarray' — Bleacher Report

An anonymous NFL agent expressed their belief Thursday that the New York Jets are in a state of turmoil due to quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Speaking to Ben…
apple.news apple.news

Speaking to Ben Standig of The Athletic, the agent said: "There is complete disarray over there. Look at how they've handled Aaron Rodgers. Has one player had more power than him? He skipped minicamp. They have been unable to convert him into a team player. The vibe inside the building is terrible."

Lol….love it….

As plausible as that story may be I'm going to need more than one agent saying it. Win and all that other stuff tends to take care of itself. They've still got a lot of talent.

As for the 'Ders, unless Daniels is Stroud+ it's hard to see them getting more than seven wins or so. OL/CB/Edge and a lack of explosive playmakers on both sides makes it tough to believe they'll consistently be successful. But as long as the foundational pieces are solidifying that's the main thing. Peters still has a lot of work to do, most glaringly still the OL but their corners could also get pretty routinely toasted.

they're projected to win about 6 games by vegas and I would hammer the over

Going 1st OA would be a huge dent in that plan. Especially when the roster is upgraded from last year

I like 7 or 8 wins…..


Individually, in a “perfect” rookie season scenario I’m hoping for around 24 passing TD’s, 5 rushing, 5 INTs, 4000+ all purpose yards….or better.

Same ... it seems like while Edge is still a premium position and in high demand, theres a lot of supply. Lots of good options in FA. In 2022 you had Von Miller, Chandler Jones, and Hassan Reddick available for good value contracts. Also you can rotate a DT or hybrid LB there like we are doing w Jamin Davis now.

My hierarchy for draft used to be QB, LT, DE, WR, CB

Now? QB, LT, WR, CB, DE
