It reminds me a little bit of a couple years ago, or maybe it was last year, the running back class was so deep that it was like, just wait, take your time, see what happens.

I think it was last year because the Bears ended up doing it.

They waited and got Kalmanunga.

This is a lot like that.

Yes, right.

This is a lot like that.

Maybe not as deep in some cases in terms of the explosion that you can get at the bottom of the draft, but

Into the fourth and fifth, I think you can still get really good linebackers.

Yeah, I mean, like this is and I got to say also for folks, this is about to be the norm.

I got to think, right, like these guys, a lot of these guys are staying in college, are getting paid.

Trinidad Chamblish, the kid from Ole Miss, is still trying to sue his way back.

I think he's going to get back and he's going to make more money in college than he would have as a second round pick this year.

So a lot of that has changed sort of what has happened in terms of

Can we wait till next year?

Can you keep doing this?

Because I think a lot of these classes are going to be similar to this.

Some years might be different, but in this case, this year, you've got a guy at the top, like you said, like Mendoza is a legitimate top 10 quarterback and top 10 pick, a guy that you can take up there and feel safe.

And kind of like Cam Ward last year, you can take him, he can be on a bad team.

He's not going to be ruined by it, all that stuff.

After that, it gets dicey though.
