Some notes from my source involving the NFL draft

It wasn't just a game. He looked like smoldering hot trash all week long against the best senior talent in college football.

Perhaps he did, perhaps he really didn't want to be there, perhaps most anything, which is why I think one game is meaningless.

There was tons of smoke around both Shaq and Butler. We did a pretty poor job of hiding our interest in both, though I'm not sure anyone was all too worried about us taking those guys in the 1st round anyway. One of those "if they're dumb enough to do it, then that works for us!" situations.

If you don't want to be there, cook up an excuse. It's not just one game. There's an entire week's worth of practices too. It's a pretty major NFL prospect evaluation tool for the guys invited.

If ones heart isn't into something no amount of common sense facts is going to change the heart.

Is this enough for the doubters???   Verge is the man!!!

lol everybody knew we had a high interest in drafting Shaq, we needed a 3rd LB at the time and we made that choice based on need. Stop crowning a guy based off 1 draft pick.

Guys talk, their job this time of year is get a feel for what others are doing. Professional courtesy so to speak. He also knows how his own team ranks things.

I don’t doubt guys talk, but he believes them? Half the draft is smokescreens, jumping over teams you think will take your guy, etc. teams are heavily incentivized to lie to each other.

 

And thats not me calling you or him a lier. Like I said it’s interesting to get insight on a teams rankings every year. I would just be surprised if he had an accurate picture of our board

This is our mock last year, so if that gives you an idea on how accurate some of the stuff he is told is. Some of it is 100%, some of it is BS.

So yall predicted around 7 of the 32 picks 

Thats just about on par with every other mocker.

Everyone knew we was taking Shaq. The only pick I didn't know we was taking was Butler that came out of nowhere. I know this year it won't be Dillard.

No not really.  CMC was expected somewhat but Shaq was not a slam dunk by any means.  Get ready for Dillard and if he goes watch out for a reach like Little.
