Oh, don't get me wrong, I like Karlaftis alot more than the others in the DE group. I'd definitely move up for him, just not as far as I'd move up for Johnson but it's not that far apart for me.

Connecticut DL Travis Jones was recently dubbed the "most versatile" defensive tackle in the 2022 NFL Draft.
Jones (6'4/336) made the most of offseason showcases like the Senior Bowl and it's safe to say he's reaping the benefits of it. He followed the Senior Bowl with an equally impressive 2022 NFL Scouting Combine performance, recording a 4.92 40-yard dash and a 28.5-inch vertical. His agility was also very much on display as he tied the top three-cone performance with a 7.33 time. According to Mike Renner of Pro Football Focus, Jones is the "most versatile" player among defensive tackles available for the taking in April.

I can’t think of a better comparison than Hali, Justin Smith or Kerrigan for Karlaftis. I also think he can play game 1, which has value.

He gets after QBs as well as almost anyone.

I love his ability and hopefully he lasts till 50, but that’s highly unlikely.

My final list is up.

Barring a trade up or down, I’m pretty confident that we pick 2 of these players.

I like Andrew Booth but I think I’d prefer Kyler Gordon. I just really like the way he plays. He was an excellent man corner at Washington

If we stay at our current spots I’m saying we draft Boye Mafe and Andrew Booth Jr



Note: There’s a guy in the draft named Smoke Monday lol

DeMarvin Leal, DE/DT, Texas A&M


Dropped:

Jermaine Johnson, EDGE, FSU (won’t be there)


Trent McDuffie, CB, Washington (won’t be there)


Perrion Winfrey, DE/DT, Oklahoma (not enough 1st round buzz)

So we got 1 guy on the list, and another that I took off because I thought we no longer had a shot at him.

Wasn’t sure if he was a fit, but the more I see, the more I think he’s a fit on any defense. He’s as safe as it gets at 30, and would be a great pick if he’s there.

I very much should have stuck to my love affair for Karlaftis.
