won't be there, but nice to think about anyway.

With the way he's been hyped up, at this point in time getting him at 14 is a pipe dream.

If memory serves me correctly, if we bring them in then it's a 98% chance we do not draft them! Right?

Nice!

barf. Most over-rated player in the draft

Agreed. Hope he is taken before our pick so we're not tempted to be suckered into taking him.

[magnus]

players visit teams. Teams interview players. Teams go to pro days. Unlike draft sites and enthusiasts, they're not done with their board and it won't change a hundred times between now and then.

That said, I don't know that I like Floyd this high. He's explosive, but he doesn't keep leverage, he's got shorter arms, and he doesn't seem that good against the run. That's a little nitpicky, but we're talking about top 2-3 at his position, and for the exact same type player, I'll take Richardson.

Richardson also has trouble with leverage. Just about every UT prospect in this draft does....

[Growl]

I'd be pretty disappointed with both Floyd or Richardson. Neither come across as very promising prospects. It's a Falling Star at 14, or no DT at all in the first imo

Warmack in the first, Jesse Williams in the 2nd
