So it is time to start thinking about the draft, and the deficiencies of the roster.
Will the new OC impact draft direction? Perhaps some, but as Freak claimed, TT has already commented about the need to fix the run game.
Is Bijan Robinson the fix? Or is O'Cyrus Torrence the way to fix the run game?
Do we trade Bosa off.....and draft a new edge?
Or as AF has suggested, do we go get the speed WR, such as Quentin Johnston?
Plenty to talk about, plenty of ways TT could go......

The early mocks are pounding the table for Tight Ends to us.
Some have Utah's TE to us, a couple have Notre Dame's.

Those people don't know what they are talking about. We have Roundtree and are 30th in rushing. It's fine. Leave it the same as every other year.

Not locked in to an OG at 21, but rather thinking an OG should really set the OL up for a few years, provided the OG chosen is solid. Slater, New OG, Linsley, Johnson, Pipkens..... Salyer as a Swing OT? or do they pivot back to the original plan for him and put him at OG?

Are you waiting for someone to give you the answer on that Salyer question? Pipkins......big contract.....that is a tough one. My guess is yes. I would hope to keep the investment that has been made, but not going crazy on a 'big contract'.

I want sonorajim to answer it..........He would be a great Feiler replacement. So that can be plan A. But we would still need a swing tackle.

But we would still need a swing tackle. Salyer to OG, but he is the swing OT as well. If they need Salyer at OT, Feiler takes OG....or TT drafts an OG. Or TT looks at OT in the draft....but I think DL/Edge are going to be high up the list in this draft.

100 year old Keenan Allen and bad back glass Mike Williams? Yea the answer is clearly WR1... Will Johnston fall to 21? I kinda doubt it, I think New England takes him. Give Arizona a 4th for Hopkins and draft BPA in the 1st... After all this is the area where TT sucks at drafting.

Let that be enough of that. REACT AS MY REALITY SETS IN FOR YOU ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. BIJAN ROBINSON, TEXAS (JUNIOR | 6-0, 220)
2022 Grade: 95.2
Play Style: Offensive Focal Point
Initial Round Projection: 1st
Robinson's talent level is what many NFL offenses build around. Even the biggest running back haters here at PFF recognize the value he brings to the table. I wrote all about exactly why that is earlier this season. The SparkNotes version: He has ideal size, breaks tackles at a rate we’ve never seen and can pass as a wide receiver in a pinch.
Bijan is simply capable of things other running backs in this class can only dream of. The way he sinks out of his cuts is reminiscent of a race car banking around a turn. He finished with 104 broken tackles this season — a PFF college record.
