I'm so sick of our GM in Tampa Jason Licht

He can't pick his freaking nose
I see the sporting news guy give the Bills a D for Kincaid... TB got an A minus for their DT. Ive seen too many A givers out there, i think i'd side with that guy

He's drafted bust after bust

From James Winston #1 overall, trading up to take a kicker in the 2nd round who's not in the league anymore, to many other blunders

Horrible GM

Blows my mind these rooms filled with clowns drafting and hugging every pick. The Broncos look like NASA mission control center. Sometimes you see up to 45 guys working the draft.

I swear I could draft for a team by myself with absolutely nothing but what’s in my head. No computer, no big board, no sheets and no nothing. Just give me a can of Copenhagen

Not saying I would do better or crush it. But I wouldn’t make a fool of myself and probably do just as good or better than some teams. I pick 3 teams every year to draft for. This year I did 4 because SF and LAR had a bunch of fun picks late and unique opportunity to dig up stuff for a good and bad team.

It’s mind boggling the amount of time and resources they put into this slave auction. They do have medical records and get better read on character via interviews. I remember two years ago being huge on Marvin Wilson DT FSU. High RD3 up to mid RD 2. Drafting him for teams. Guy was like a 7th rd pick and blew my mind. But apparently had some major knee issues that didn’t heal. So I guess that stuff is valuable having guys to research or know.

One of the best ones I can remember doing was Raiders Draft year they had 3 1’s. Maybe Mayock first draft. 3 1’s and wanted to see how Mayock vs my opinion drafted. Fully remember going Josh Allen QB, Montez Sweat DE, DK Metcalf WR and Chase Winivich ED first 4 picks.

I thought vita vea pick was way early at like 9 one year. I agree some garbage picks put they have also gotten some really good players later. Believe these guys were all round 3 or later. Seems outside of Wirf they bungle round 1

Off top my head
Dean
Winfield
Davis
Whitehead
Goodwin
Edwards

Chris Godwin yes super pick

But a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while

Vita is always hurt and always will be

The rest of those guys are ok but overrated

I have those dominant Bucs defenses to compare to with guys like Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks, John Lynch, Simeon Rice

And none of these guys can be mentioned in the same breath

There's a lot of studs we could have had, but passed on

Just like yesterday

We need a young QB and could have had Levis at #19

Deuce to the cowboys

Pretty cool scene and back story on that.

Apparently his dad is a scout for Dallas and wouldn’t do a scouting report on him. Cowboys just drafted him. Guys in the room all seemed pretty pumped about the pick. Caught his dad off guard in the draft room. Pretty classy move for flyer on a super productive player at KSU.

Toledo's Desjuan Johnson is the final pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, coined "Mr. Irrelevant".

Teams set record with 43 trades during 2023 NFL draft weekend.​

When the Houston Texans made the first trade of the NFL's draft weekend, it was the start of a record number of swaps of players and picks that took place Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
At the conclusion of draft business Saturday night, teams had completed 43 trades over the three days. It broke the record of 40 trades set during the 2019 draft.
While the Carolina Panthers had made the biggest trade splash in March when they sent two first-round picks, two second-round picks and wide receiver DJ Moore to the Chicago Bears to move up to the No. 1 spot, it was the Texans who opened the weekend's flurry of trades.
The draft was not even 30 minutes old when the Texans, who had already selected Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud with the No. 2 pick, moved back into the No. 3 spot to select Alabama linebacker Will Anderson Jr. The Texans sent their other first-round pick (No. 12) as well as the No. 33 pick in this year's draft to go with a first- and third-rounder in the 2024 draft to the Arizona Cardinals to make the move.
It was the first of six trades made on the clock in Thursday's first round alone.
The Cardinals were also part of the first trade of Day 2 of the draft. The Tennessee Titans sent them two picks in this year's draft -- Nos. 41 and 72 -- as well as a third-round pick in the 2024 draft to move up to No. 33 (the second pick of the second round). The Titans then selected Kentucky quarterback Will Levis.
The Cardinals were one of the most active teams and exited the weekend with the potential for at least 11 picks in the 2024 draft.
The Texans, along with the Buffalo Bills, were part of the record-breaking 41st trade of the draft as they moved up in the sixth round to select Iowa State wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson at No. 205.
Even NFL veterans weren't immune as during Saturday's four rounds the Lions traded running back D'Andre Swift to the Philadelphia Eagles and the New Orleans Saints traded tight end Adam Trautman to the Denver Broncos as part of a trade to get one of the Broncos' sixth-round picks.
The moves continued throughout Friday and Saturday until the Baltimore Ravens and the Cleveland Browns made the final swap so the Ravens could move to pick No. 229 to select USC tackle Andrew Vorhees in exchange for a sixth-round pick next year.

Howie Roseman is definitely one of the top GMs in the NFL….outstanding draft again this year…
No idea why they just gave Swift to eagles. Dude send him anywhere for nothing but a potential threat. Buffalo would take him for 7th rd next year.

He swindled the bears for nothing. Lmao bears are idiots. It’s obvious they were thirsty for carter and bears held the ability to sell they wanted him. Tell philly the Steelers are on phone offering the goods.

Texans Trade 3000 Draft points for Anderson. That’s the 1st pick value. Eagles toss a 4th rd future probably top 3 last pick rd 4.

Eagles and Ravens are two teams that tend to make smart moves. Draft quality guys from bigger schools who were productive. And stick to the trenches early usually.

Why are you guys still talking about the draft. It is over. It ended Thursday night

When your team takes a stupid black qb, it is over. No other moves matter

I hope his plane crashes but a violent one into a mountain where the fat mother sobs like she cares about him before he was due to get millions

glass half full

Other teams may have done more than the Eagles to improve their rosters in this weekend’s N.F.L. draft. No team, however, did more to improve its chances of winning next year’s Super Bowl.

The Steeler draft had to be in the top three
