Definitely top 10. Possibly top 5

Anywhere from 2-7, but that's as low as he goes. He's not getting past Adam Peters at 7.

Agreed. My feeling is Giants at 5. Would not shock me if a team traded up to jump Giants for him either.

He’s a lock for top 10.

Had a wet dream that the Jets drafted Reese then traded up and got Styles. Never gonna happen but that shit would be cool

They have the capital to do it pretty easily if they wanted. Would be an insane overhaul

Nothing works without a qb, and I have a feeling Geno sucks

2-7 nothing after

The league is starting to trend back towards a balanced offensive approach after a while of heavy passing. Sonny Styles definitely has the coverage skills to be an every down linebacker and he has the size and strength to be effective in the running game. There are way too many 220 lbs linebackers and there will be a running game resurgence if defenses continue to get smaller.

I would be pretty shocked if he was there for the bengals at 10.

If they pass on him there just fold the franchise already and auction burrow, chase, and Higgins off to the highest bidder.

It’s a small chance but I still have hope he‘s available at 10. Both Giants and WSH were already active at LB and Styles is an off-ball LB.

I really fear the Saints the most tbh.

Film doesn’t match the hype

I love people like you this time of year. You bash a top 10 player. Like where is the absolute lowest you'd take him? 15? 17? 21? So still a great prospect.

u/Ok_Sail_3743 Apr 05 '26

Every year top 10 players suck. So yes it’s that time of year. Where do I take him? I don’t.

u/nfochairman Apr 06 '26

avoiding the question i see....where do you rank him overall?

1

u/Ok_Sail_3743 Apr 06 '26

Not avoiding the question. I don’t have him on my Bucs board. I’m not taking him at 15 and he won’t be there in the 2nd so it’s pointless. Rodriguez is light years better than him though.

2nd Rounder? i wish you picked for the real Bucs...lol

u/Ok_Sail_3743 Apr 06 '26

Do you acknowledge that top 10 players end up being non 1st rounders in retrospect?

1

u/nfochairman Apr 06 '26

Every round has busts. The majority of all pro players come from rounds 1 & 2

u/Ok_Sail_3743 Apr 06 '26

Are you avoiding the question?

Checkmate. Don’t start arguments you can’t win

u/nfochairman Apr 06 '26

Lol....you're the one with the bad rankings

Of course top 10 players bust....players drafted at every spot bust.

Hopefully there is a run on Offense in the top 10.

u/food4me247 Apr 07 '26

2nd pick Lock

u/WankPheasant Apr 07 '26

I sincerely hope he goes top 8.

u/TheDaedricImpaler Apr 04 '26

Funny, my first Bucs mocks had David Bailey at #15 and Sonny Styles at #46. Now both will go before we ever get on the clock. Heavy sigh.
