and I still don't like them at #9. Once the top tier of like 7-8 guys is gone and they are taken before us. I would look to slide back if we can get good value (#2 would be ideal). After these guys are gone: Bosa Oliver Allen Williams Taylor White Murray (not a fan, but he is a top prospect) I feel like you are right near that mid-tier where the overall draft grades aren't separating the overall talent that much. We either swing to move up to get one of those guys or slide back to get more draft capital to move back in the bottom of RD1 and end up taking 2 of the best available from DL, OT, WR, maybe TE outside of the top 13ish

Even with Kyler available?

I'm wondering if I was too hard on Gary

Never forget!

And when the GM is canned Gase will go with him. On a side note, I hope Greggo sees Gase pretend to be writing notes on the sideline during the game like he did in Miami...

Yup yup yup

I mean way back in the day, yeah I used to listen to what they said, but always took it with a grain of salt. If they are getting paychecks from the team, it is hard to be fair and objective. This won't be a popular opinion, but I did like Sully at times because on occasion he was correct (other times yeah it was a bit much). I like to be balanced - read and get a grasp of the good and bad, which you often don't get from the team. I follow Brown on twitter and will peruse his Friday mailbag or other things that are interesting...

TBH, it still sounds a little dirty. LOL It's all good! Seeing it is falling on a Thursday, all wild and crazy plans will be postponed until the weekend. Thankfully, we have been through this drill before. I am taking Thursday off, will make her breakfast and such and put my time in before the draft and then after. Wow it's been 10 years, but we were in Jamaica when the draft was going on (Maybin and Wood). I had $150 in text message fees because I didn't understand the Maybin pick with Orakpo on the board. I hate this team

We are re-watching it for the movie...C&*Ksuckers

It's my wife's birthday, so we will see.

Check out the Cover 1 thread - he has Hock as well and really detailed out all of the visits and meetings . Damn dude, tough to figure this one out this year

I like the thoroughness and detail. The board here would pick him apart if he didn't include all of it .

Just finished it....good stuff

I feel like we are better at this then the teams are

FYI - the tweet was retweeted by Pete Prisco (how I saw it in the first place) The Cardinals like Josh Rosen, and I don’t see them taking a quarterback in the first round two years in a row. They need help on the defensive line and Williams would immediately provide that. General manager Steve Keim has made some mistakes in the first round by taking guys who weren’t that passionate about football (Jonathan Cooper, Robert Nkemdiche). So I can see them taking Williams. — Kent Somers, The Arizona Republic

I thought Canadians were supposed to be polite?

https://www.rotoworld.com/football/nfl/player-news/headlines/8992506 NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports the Raiders are considering "some sort of surprise pick" at No. 4 overall that would "necessitate absolute secrecy." Per Rapoport, a pick that "we are not expecting" seems to be in the offing. Forced to speculate on who that might be, Rapsheet mentioned LSU LB Devin White, a quarterback or offensive lineman. The Raiders, who are still looking to replace Khalil Mack, are in a defensive line-rich part of the board, but coach Jon Gruden has made it clear he is listening to no one but himself. Gruden is fast developing into the second coming of Al Davis. Edit: Seriously though sending all scouts home. I wonder if they did in fact work out a trade with ARZ to get Murray and are looking to move Carr...

Don't worry that won't stop us from bad mouthing you

I have a hard time drafting OL this high, always have always will. That being said, I did like Nelson a lot last year; however that was 1 player out of the last 20+ years I followed the draft. The bust potential in the draft is high and rarely do you see rookie OL ready on day 1 to play anymore. When you are drafting in the top 10-12ish I want to see those players starting, JMO I like Sternberger in the third or even late 2nd. With our first pick I want an impact player at a premium position...

Not a good LB class, you have the top 2 and that is it. Don't reach to fill holes

I just don't recall last year. I remember Allbright on Allen, but that is it. I let those memories go LOL I don't listen to Murph & Tasker at all really and Chris Brown not so much either. I'm just not a fan of official Team "Journalists"/PR personnel.

Especially in this day and age.

Hmmm; if only there was already a thread on this...
