Mr. Scot

Fitterer said in one of his draft interviews that it was possible they might trade up, or that they might trade down, depending on the situation. I always appreciate the clarity he brings

That's kind of a surprising thing for his agent to say If the name sounds familiar, you might remember him as the guy who represented Mike Remmers.

I'd successfully blocked that out of my mind until you brought it back up

It's possible but I don't think that guy is anybody who'd know. Probably just pulling it out of his ass...

I asked Matt Rhule to explain it. Five minutes later, I gave up

I wanted one of those helmet phones

Word is he'll be benched for the first offensive series of Week 1

Little, Grier, whatever the name of that defensive back was that didn't do sh-t... Yikes Fairly safe to say nobody's missing Marty right now.

I predict I'm gonna sit on my ass all day tomorrow, watch wall to wall draft coverage and likely annoy the hell out of Lady Cowboy Fan till she starts googling how to get away with murder. (this is probably the only prediction I'm absolutely certain about)

I gotta try something like that the next time I'm in an online meeting Oh wait, I don't have to go to those anymore. I'm retired!

Sounds like a character on an '80s nighttime soap opera.

Confess. You're actually planning to do some serious sh-t stirring aren't you?

Way higher than what this one's gotten so far.

Immediate post draft grades are silly. Hell, we're only now getting to the point where we can rightly start thinking about grading our picks from 2020.

Is Mayfield there on more than a one year deal (don't remember)? Either way, apparently the reason why Richardson is falling Is that personnel guys are having a hard time figuring out where he fits.

Always be patient. Never rush when there's no reason to.

It's smart if they do.

And finally, Daniel Jeremiah... DJ is one of the few guys I've seen in the last 24 hours to have more than two quarterbacks in the top ten. Besides Young at #1, he's got Stroud second to the Texans and Levis going to the Colts with the fourth spot. What he does share with the others though is a belief that Richardson drops out of the top half of the round. He has him being picked 20th overall by Seattle.

The more I've thought about it, the more I think the pro scouting role he had before really might be the better option for him. One of the prime duties of a pro scout is to watch film of other teams to look for tendencies and exploitable things. Luke was always phenomenal at that.

Absolutely. Stranger things have happened. That's also a big reason why you don't inform the guy until the card is turned in.

Not really. I've never been that much of a "you heard it here first" guy. I'm more the "what does it mean" type.

I think pretty much everybody's acknowledged that by now. Truth be told, I tend to be a nervous fan anyway but it'll likely be even more so with Young.

Possibly, but I'd say that particular prohibition still applies. (especially given that the people who tend to engage in this practice generally do so just to be a--holes)

No it isn't. Keeping the pick a secret right till the end is actually SOP. Yes, they could trade. I've said that all along. I've also said all along that I don't see it happening.

I think what makes a big difference here is the addition of Frank Reich. The combo always trumps the individual, and anyone who's ever had to deal with an incompetent co-worker knows just how hard that can be. Pretty sure Fitterer's majorly relieved to be free from Matt Rhule. Best of all though, I'd say Reich and Fitterer could potentially fit together very well.
