Like the position of edge rusher although Karlaftis won't be my 1st choice there at edge rusher.   But it's still a solid pick overall can't be mad about it.   Now if you do some trades in the next draft them boys can for sure come get the Falcons pick at 8 :D  Lord knows we need alot of new talent and this draft is deep in the 1st 3 rounds of exactly what we need most in DL, CB, LB, OL, and WR

I'm pretty high on Karlaftis, but I could definitely see Atlanta trading down and picking up a 2nd or a future 1st and still get a solid edge player.  If they stayed put that's where I think value and need meet up pretty well.  I'd take Karlaftis over Walker personally, but I think Walker has more draft helium.

Good pick for the Browns. I'm Jordan Davis all the way with Garrett Wilson as the plan-B if he's gone.

It'll be interesting to see how high Davis goes.  Potential to be a game wrecker if he gets the right coaching.  I'd move him all around the dline personally, have him alternatively playing Nose, 3 tech, and 5 tech creating mismatches and confusion.

Yup. I think he's a top-5 talent 🤫. Don't tell anyone else and start mocking him to the Browns. Stingley is already more than Minnesota deserves at that spot jus sayin.

I don't dislike Karlaftis he's probably my 5th or 6th favorite pass rusher in this draft i have him around the 15 to 25 range in players.  Walker isn't in my top 10 either i have him about the same spot as Karlaftis as well honestly.  The guy i would prefer there myself if both of Hutch and Thibs are gone is probably Jermaine Johnson although he is probably in my 15 to 25 range too lol i just like him better than Karlaftis, Walker, and Ojabo.   Im personally starting to warm up to a Jordan Davis at 8 i think he might be more of a game changer than all of them and then grab a Edge rusher in round 2 if we stayed at 8.  I think at this point im looking at   Hutch, Thibs, Neal, Ekwonu, and Hamilton as guys i for sure stay at 8 for .  Then if we try but can't trade down at all i look at Davis, Sauce, or Stingley at 8 probably in that order as well for me.  But if we can trade down all those edge rushers come available in the teens to 20's i listed or a Lb like Dean and Lloyd, Maybe a Linderbaum.  hell we might even luck into a trade down and one of Davis or stingley might still be there that would be awesome.

If they went Jordan Davis at 8 and then Mafe, Williams, or Bonitto in rd 2, that'd be remaking your defensive front in a hurry

You dang right it would be and you even named the guy i wanted in round 2 in Mafe lol.  Davis + Maffe would be so nasty added to Grady and then maybe pick up 1 more FA Edge rusher as our big FA pickup.  Honestly with us switching to a 3-4 last year under Pees i don't think it can be understated how much we need a true 3-4 monster in the middle to help make that transition much easier for everyone else on the D-line.   Grady is a stud of a DT we all know this and if you look at his numbers last year they were way down because he didn't have a capable enough guy next to him taking blockers.
