If he falls on someone it really will be a pancake.

Tiki Barber was a fumble machine and fixed it so its definitely doable.

FIFY

I was really hoping we could get Jabril Cox. A 2 time first team all American LB would have been a really nice addition. At some point you have to make picks.

Carolina Mean Machine

I was really hoping for Meinerz. Now I feel a little disappointed

Meinerz is who I want next

This feels like a really bad mock draft from first pick with these trades. Except first pick gives better trades

I like our options for round 2. I was hoping we could have moved down and picked up an extra second but oh well. Koramoah, Jenkins, Moore, and Radunz are my choices.

Don’t take criticism from those that won’t put their own neck out there. Predicting the draft is hard to do especially when you aren’t in all those draft rooms. You’re still better at this than Mel kiper and don’t need 50 cans of Aqua Net every morning.

No he won't. Most of these guys will be on IR before the season starts.

Big difference between FA and a trade but I'd give away 4 1sts for a Lombardi. Nobody cares how you won, only that you won.

If you think it gets you a SB you can. TB did it and it worked out ok. Things shift so fast in the nfl winning now when you're close is sometimes the best option.

Where a player lands contributes so much to his success or failure. David Carr is a perfect example. He got sacked so many times he saw ghosts everywhere because he landed behind such a horrible offensive line. I'm optimistic about Darnold because I don't think he's had a real chance to develop bad habits. He's spent the majority of his time trying to fit into Gase's system which was throw it at the wall and see what sticks.

I bet Ron chews the same piece of gum all the days of the draft, without it ever losing flavor.

what about Eric Shelton

I guess maybe there is some psychological stuff to a simple game like that. Me, I'm only playing after a dozen shots of Jaeger and it's rock/paper/scissors/shot.

If he is there in the 3rd I would be happy to watch them call his name as our pick. I don't think he makes it to the 4th. He needs to be developed and 2 years behind Darnold would give time for that to happen. A promising young QB in the stables would be nice to have.

And for Snyder forcing the Haskins pick. They took Sweat a few picks later.

If we go Sewell/Slater in the first, I would like to see Humphrey or Meinerz in the second. I do expect the pick to be Grjant though. I would be content with Jamin Davis too.

A single pick comparison doesn't really establish much as far as drafting talent. Hurney whiffed far more in the 2nd and 3rd where it really matters than Gettleman. It will be interesting now to see how not having JR influence will affect our new GM.

Grief affects people in a lot of different ways. He was never the same after that loss.

Time will tell if Butler was a bad pick or Rivera wasn’t able to use him right. He played well in Buffalo this year, which makes me wonder if it was Ron trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole. Rivera was anything but adaptable and constantly forced players into his system instead of adapting his system to the players. Gaulden was a failure from the start and Little, that was just Hurney being a dumb ass trusting his gut over what anyone with a set of eyes clearly saw.

I don't want a LB at 8 because the positional value is not there. Parsons may be legit, but we could probably move back to 15 and still possibly get him. There's far more chance of him being available than Sewell, Slater, Chase, Waddle, or Pitts

1. TL 2. Sewell 3. Slater 4. Wilson 5. Chase 6. Pitts 7. Fields 8. Trade back - since we're talking big board, I'm adding trade back as my option at 8 if these players are gone. Wouldn't want to move further back than 15 at most. 9. Waddle 10. Lance - merely based on positional value 11. Surtain/Horn - these 2 are neck and neck IMO 12 Parsons - based on talent alone. I dont see LB holding the value in this years draft
