Maybe, depends on who is available. Far from a lock. 

Who would you have to say has to be off the board for us to pick him? I see more than 8 players that I think we should take ahead of McCaffrey. 

1. Garrett

2. Thomas

3. Fournette

4. Corey Davis

5. Jamal Adams

6 Malik Hooker

7. O.J Howard

8. Marshon Lattimore

9.Derrick Barnett

Thats without any QB's going or Jonathan Allen.  Seems pretty much impossible he would be BPA at 8 to me.

His pr people are good. Next we'll hear hes a lock to go #1.

I might have a stroke if we drafted McCaffrey over Fournette. With that said, I think there's zero chance that would actually happen.

I won't hate McCaffrey at #8 depending on how the draft board falls, but I'd be really torn over it. I'd be disappointed that prospects I would greatly prefer (Fournette, Thomas, and Adams in that order) were gone, but I would be intrigued about what it meant for the evolution of the offense.

So McCaffrey is number 5 on your big board? You only listed 3 but I made the safe assumption you have Garrett above him.

We've effectively made the Titans, Jets, and Chargers likely trade candidates for a team who really wants McCaffrey.

No, I only listed prospects that I think there's a chance of being there at #8. Zero chance that Garrett will be.

I would put him above hooker, lattimore, barnett, howard and davis easily.

I figured as much. But you said you wouldn't hate the pick at 8 if those 4 are gone. So you have him as number 5 on your big board?

So he's number 6 on your big board?

1. Garrett

2. Fournette

3. Thomas

4. Adams

5. Hooker (though I've seen no interest that the Panthers are interested, I actually like him more than Adams but I have him below Adams simply because I'm 100% certain that the Panthers do)

6. McCaffrey (though honestly if those previous five are gone, my preference would be to field calls about a potential trade down)

Thanks for the response. Outside of @killerkat, I don't know of any others who value Corey Davis as much as me. Where do you have him ranked?

I like him a lot, but honestly I have no clue where I'd rank him. I don't trust myself to evaluate small school prospects who couldn't work out.

Yes he is, I dont like any of the Corners in round one anywhere much less top ten. The only safety i would take in the top ten is Adams. Wr i wouldn't go before 15-16 area in the first and thats if ross checked out healthy which he hasn't. 

 

So Garrett, fournette, Adams, Thomas and then McCaffrey.
