2023 NFL draft thread

[SEMO 6,811]

It’s nice to have an EDGE with some bend.  Hopefully, he works out.

Add about 15 pounds on him and it will be nice. Lost Clark and Dunlap, get the FA pick up FA Omenihu and draft this guy along with Uzomah. I think they will get after it especially on passing downs.

Pre-Draft Analysis

Coburn is a massive nose tackle with the strength and low center of gravity to occupy double-teams and clog up the middle. He locates the ball and gets off blocks in time to make plays between the tackles. Coburn's not going to make a lot of plays outside the tackle box, and he has limited upside as a pass-rusher. -- Steve Muench

Think we should pick up DT also from cuts but man, Veach has hit depth and competition with every pick. Remembering too that Omenihu can kick inside also.

Think this is Nnadi's last season unless Coburn is a complete bust.  KCSN has an interview with him at the senior bowl (I think) and he's an impressive young man.  

[oldtimer 8,686]

i hope 1/2 way through the season we say Nnadi who?

[oldtimer 8,686]

Duece a Plowboy..WTF?

Temper expectations.  He is a 6th round pick.  How hard could it be to press Nnadi for playing time, though?

Wasn't Coburn on your wishlist for today?

I liked Nnadi but understand were you're coming from. It seems hard to find a really good NT.

He was and bumped it for all to see!

Nnadi was average until last season when he had his worst year.

Another cb, Nic Jones from Ball St.

Very happy with this draft. We keep the ranks full. St help along with depth. Got the help where we needed it too.

Wasn't flashy. But depth was addressed. Now let's see who we nab in undrafted free agency.

[xen 1,010,220]

Coburn will start over Nnadi.  That was a great pick.

Pacheco wasn't flashy either.

Until he played.

Doubt it, veteran gets the full year regardless but next year could be a huge boost from day one.

you can say that again altho I'm not mad about our #1 pick  am yawning at the others but the BFF from Texas I thought was a good pick. Granted I'm no Draft nerd and am ignorant to a vast majority of college players but I was hoping that  since the draft was in KC, we just won the SB we'd see some splashy moves that showed Veach  was laser focused on a repeat.. the draft nor FA just didn't show me that I guess. Not sure what I was hoping for but it was more than I got.

Veach is clearly laser focused on repeat. He had most needs covered through FA, and any remaining holes he filled through the draft.  There weren't any picks that got me off the couch, but upon looking at them more closely, I am immensely satisfied we've improved.

McKinnon has to be coming back.
