#530: Dash To The Draft 2025 (Recap of NFC Draft Classes with Carl Dumler)
Manage episode 485207151 series 2293909
1. NFC East
-When you add a special talent like Abdul Carter to a defensive front that includes star DT Dexter Lawrence, edge rushers Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux, plus DT and 2025 third-round pick Darius Alexander, would you say the Giants have, at least on paper, the most fearsome pass rush in the entire NFL right now?
-Do you see Jaxson Dart starting five or more games this season?
-Do you think the added presence of Donovan Ezeiruaku to that Cowboys front four is going to free up Micah Parsons, schematically speaking, like never before?
-How helpful can Tyler Booker, Ezeiruaku, and Shavon Revel, Jr. be in helping the Cowboys get the most out of George Pickens?
-Do you think the best Week 1 OL combination for the Commanders includes Josh Conerly, Jr. at RT with Brandon Coleman kicking inside to guard, or is it Coleman staying put at RT with Conerly moving inside?
-Would you anticipate Trey Amos growing into that No. 1 shutdown corner for the Commanders at some point this season?
-I'm not saying Jihaad Campbell is Micah Parsons, but does Vic Fangio now have a weapon he can deploy in a very similar way?
-Do you think Andrew Mukuba pushes Reed Blankenship and Sydney Brown for one of the starting safety spots in Philly?
2. NFC South
-How does Tetairoa McMillan help Bryce Young continue on this promising trajectory?
-Will the Panthers be getting the 2023 version of Nic Scourton as opposed to the 2024 version?
-How ideal is it for the Saints to begin a roster makeover with two starting tackles on rookie contracts?
-Would you bet on Tyler Shough being the Saints starting QB when they face the Cardinals in Week 1?
-Just how skeptical are you that James Pearce, Jr. will end up living up to the price the Falcons paid to get him?
-Does Emeka Egbuka bring anything to the table that Chris Godwin does not?
-Would it be a surprise to you if both Benjamin Morrison and Jacob Parrish are NOT playing starter-level snaps this season in Tampa?
3. NFC North
-After bringing in an innovative offensive mind in Ben Johnson to be their new head coach, re-vamping the OL, and ensuring that Caleb Williams will have four solid targets on the field at a time, is it safe to say the Bears have done everything possible to right their disastrous wrong in 2024?
-Do you think Ozzy Trapilo has a legit shot to beat out Braxton Jones for the starting LT spot?
-How do Matthew Golden and Savion Williams immediately upgrade the WR room in Green Bay?
-With Donovan Jackson sliding in to that LG spot, do you see the Vikings as a top-five offensive line in 2025?
-Do you see such upside in Tyleik Williams when it comes to rushing the passer?
-What does the ceiling look like for Isaac TeSlaa?
4. NFC West
-Would you be surprised if Mykel Williams ends up winning 2025 NFL DROY honors?
-Do you think Walter Nolen ended up in one of the best places possible that will help him reach his immense potential?
-If the concerns about his knee end up being overblown, just how special a talent are the Cardinals getting in Will Johnson?
-Can you see a scenario where Jalen Milroe ends up as the Seahawks starting QB in 2027?
-Do you see Mike Macdonald utilizing Nick Emmanwori in pretty much the same way he used Kyle Hamilton in Baltimore?
-Does it feel that most (if not all) signs are pointing toward the Rams landing their long-term successor to Matthew Stafford on Day 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft?
-Which one of Jarquez Hunter or Chris Paul, Jr. do you think is most likely to far outplay his draft slot and why?
