Making a Comeback
I have to second the point on small school players here, it was great seeing a team captain from LSU taken at an area of need where we’ve occasionally reached for small school guys.

I’m very happy to load up on D. I would’ve spent every pick there.

I am a little surprised by this but:

Nice to get some praise here for SK.
Here really has done a solid job this year.
We were all ready to run him out of town if he blew this.

I really liked this draft. I think all will contribute this year or in the near future. To me, the only questions are Weaver and Fotu.

As long as he’s the GM, Keim has to draft from home!

Hell, if we had even an average defense last year we would've seriously flirted with the playoffs.
I couldn't have imagined a better influx of talent into this defense in my wildest dreams. Cannot wait to see them play!

Just having a guy who can cover TE's will probably add 3-4 wins next year (OK I exaggerate but you get the point). Talk about filling a hole! That's been a crater in recent years.

With the increase in talent on Defense Vance Joseph should be firmly on the hot seat if they don’t improve to a middle tier defense this year.
I enjoyed the draft, grades are silly this early but it is always good to see the team get positive reviews.

I would not worry abut Fotu, in a year he will be our best DL with the tutoring of Brentson and learning to rush the passer. I had him as 1st pick in the 4th round from the beginning. It's nice to have a young and talented DL.

I do not feel VJ is feeling any heat right now... I bet he's ecstatic with the draft and free agency

Denver fans might disagree.
I just watched an off the grid interview with Evan Weaver on you tube.
He is going to become a fan favorite. They asked him when was the first time he thought about playing in the nfl.
He said in first grade he told his teacher he didn’t have to learn how to read. She asked him why. He told her because he was going to play in the nfl.
She said aren’t you going to need to know how to read your contract? He said nope. My mother’s a lawyer.
He laughed and said he made it pass that hurdle.
Love how Kiem said some guys you have to tell them sic em’ and some guys you have to say Whoa. Weaver is the latter.
Ask about having to wait so long to get drafted. He said it was no problem for him but it will be for 31 other teams.

well done Steve Keim 
Been on this board for many years and really enjoy reading and following the posters on this board.I love the passion on here. This team has drastically changed this off season. We have added by my count 8 new faces just on defense. Simmons, Fotu, Lawrence, Weaver, Campbell, Phillips, Kennard, and Alford ( who didn't play a down last year ). Our defense was terrible last year. 7 of these players are on the front end of the defense. In all my years of following this team, I can't recall this many new faces. It seems like year after year this board has been clamoring to build the trenches. I realize that even though on paper this looks very encouraging, it has to transition to the field, but I am very encouraged by what the Cards have done.
We were not to bad last year on offense and I think that we will only get better this year. We will have 5 new faces on offense. Hopkins, (which is huge) Jones, Benjamin, Gilbert, And Garcia ( i can't remember if he played last year ). I am looking very forward to the season this year. GO CARDS

I like the draft but every year we say something similar and are left disappointed.
We all did the same last year and outside Kyler nobody did anything.
Murphy was poor. Isabella barely played. Allen did nothing and got injured. Etc etc
So I like the picks at face value but not going to get too excited about anyone other than Simmons until the season starts.

I personally haven't felt this good about our picks in half a decade.
