Gibbs for me. I like McDonald and he'd be my second choice, but I don't think he'd see the field until 2024. I wouldn't touch the receivers.

Gibbs - Would be BPA
Torrence -
McDonald -

Either choose BPA or trade back if you think you can still get one of the other two

McDonald. Highest ranked player at an impact position.

DE is way more important than a TB.
Did we not have a good first season in Sam Williams and obviously have Micah on the other side? We’re just giving up on that pick already?

Lets see who is available at 26 first. After they pick knowing what was left on the board, we're free to resume yelling!

I know I'm in the minority here, but I think there is zero chance we draft Avila at 26.

Quinn loves rotating edge guys and deploying them a variety of ways. Parsons also got worn down playing edge so much. Adding another pass rusher takes some pressure off Parsons. Further, Armstrong is a FA after this season and could get paid a bit if he has another good year. Fowler is also on a one year deal.

If they think McDonald is a legitimate edge rusher, he makes a ton of sense at 26.

Trying to think who would make the most impact immediately for the Boys, and for me it would be Gibbs. With Pollard coming off injury, you need someone that can duplicate what Pollard brings. Already have a bruiser back in Davis and Jones or they could (and probably will bring back Zeke much to many fans scorn) so Gibbs gets my vote and allows Pollard a little extra time to heal.

Just think we will see more key picks on offense than defense. Really don't think we pick at 26 but more like 29 to 31 after a small trade down.

Looking how helpless the offense was without Pollard, I have to go with Gibbs...and I like McDonald.

Don't over think it. Take McDonald. There are guards, tight ends, running backs and receivers you can get on Friday.
My only gripe is, McDonald is likely 1-2 years from producing. The impact will be minimal for a team looking to win now. Gibbs does that.

I love McDonald and he is my favorite prospect in the draft behind Gibbs.

Can't have too many quality edge players. If there is one you like I think you take them and figure out how to get everyone on the field. A pick like this may even open up trading a guy like Armstrong to pick up an extra 3rd round pick.

The issue is you have Micah, Tank, Armstrong, Fowler and Williams all trying to get snaps. Don’t forget Golston as a deep rotation guy. Fowler was super productive in limited snaps last season and he’s cheap.

I just don’t see who you cut or how he gets any snaps. It will be Sam Williams all over again. Plus, he will be 24 when the season begins. He’s the same age as Micah minus the two amazing seasons.

This isn’t a complaint. Because in two years you have McDonald and Williams at end and can get rid of Lawrence

Any but Flowers. I'm in a mini-panic they may pick him

Also wouldn't want Gibbs over any of those other guys. I'd trade down before taking him. I just don't think he is going to be nearly as good as a lot of people seem to. Would take him over Flowers though.
