Is anybody worried about that dude jawaan Taylor being a bust? See him rising up the boards a lot lately but he's a right tackle. Do we not take him because we already have moton even though people are saying he's the best tackle in the draft? In a very good o lineman draft at that? 

If he was thrown in as a LT id be a little worried.

I think he can be a solid RT.

 

There is a reason he was a RT at Florida not LT, even with the LT being much worse.  He is just good there

To follow up on my report from Friday’s podcast about a potential Jacoby Brissett trade, I’ve spoken with several people who feel the Colts would demand a second-round choice for Brissett. If they were to lose him in free agency after the 2019 season, they would likely receive a compensatory third-round pick based on the contract he’s likely to sign; hence the second-round price tag.

Another update from our podcast: many were surprised when I mentioned that Jachai Polite was rated as the No. 2 edge rusher in the draft, ahead of Nick Bosa. This does not mean Polite will be drafted before Bosa, as I explained during the podcast, which you can listen to here. I’m told the Green Bay Packers really like Polite at this point in the process, and we had them selecting the Florida junior during our mock draft immediately after the Super Bowl.

Much of this also depends on what the Packers do in free agency. I continue to hear Green Bay will target pass rushers in free agency, something we initially reported during our podcast on February 7.

Free agent Trey Flowers was again connected to the Miami Dolphins by multiple sources I spoke with Friday night. It is by no means a done deal -- let’s make that clear -- but as they say, where there’s smoke, there’s fire. The pass-rush-needy Detroit Lions are another franchise whose name has been mentioned as having interest in Flowers.

Edge and DL Bench

Bosa- 29

Ferrell-25

Zach Allen- 24

Rashan Gary- 26

Dexter Lawerence- 36

Sweat- 21

Christian Wilkins- 28

Oliver- 32

No one hurt themselves with those numbers. If there's a disappointing number there it's Allen's but that's still not a bad number.

One dude not being mentioned much is T.J Hockenson.  I know we have other needs be damn that dude looks like he’ll be a top NFL TE really soon.  He is incredible.

Love that dude as well.

Reminds me of Gronk a little

RISERS

MILES BOYKIN, NOTRE DAME

Boykin is an immediate "check the tape!" prospect after his performance today -- I'm already 1.5 games into it. I saw him have a productive day against Stanford early in the season, but I didn't see a 4.42 athlete. His fluidity impresses, and was reflected in a 4.07 short shuttle and class-leading 6.77 3-cone.

But what really stands out are the jumps: Boykin's 43.5" vertical and 11'8 broad would have been unquestionably tops in the class if not for Emanuel Hall's performance. As it stands, they are T-3rd and 2nd marks among all WRs in MockDraftable's database. You can find that explosiveness when he releases, and it will help him get drafted as a developmental WR.

Also, this: so much fun!

 

 

 

GARY JENNINGS, WEST VIRGINIA

A favorite of Jon Ledyard's and a strong Senior Bowl participant, Jennings has built on a strong pre-Draft process that honestly began at the end of the season, with a wildly productive game against Oklahoma to close out his 2018 campaign. Jennings' 4.42 (unofficial) in the 40-yard dash is objectively fast, even though it barely scrapes the Top-10 in this class. Top on 10'7 broad and 4.15 short shuttle, and we've got one of the better all-around performances today.

STANLEY MORGAN JR., NEBRASKA

Not really a surprise riser (a surpriser, if you will), if you've been following some of TDN's content -- but still a great day for Morgan that deserves recognition. Because he didn't run a wild 40 -- 4.53 -- the Twitterverse didn't cover his next results as closely. 38.5" vertical jump; 10'5 broad jump; 4.13 short shuttle; and a KILLAH! 6.78 3-cone. Those are all excellent times for the shifty route-runner who has a clear path to an NFL role in the slot.

This WR group really helped their draft stock yesterday.  That might mean some really good other prospects might fall to us  not only in the first but the remaining rounds as well.  2019 is looking like a good draft of prospects on paper.  

Cant wait to see the best group of the entire draft with the defense.  We could use a DB or 2 sneak into the top 10 also today.
