I like keeping our first and only trading up to 7, but I don’t like taking a center in the first round. There’s too many other offensive lineman in this draft to take one that early. Get your BPA LB, DB, WR, or TE here.

As a rusher yes he was successful, as a passer not nearly as successful.

Estro Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Nolan Nawrocki was the best. I remember his mock draft for the 2010 draft had 13 or 14 direct hits, right player to right team. He was super plugged in. Unfortunately, this is the first year he didnt put out a draft guide. I wonder if a team hired him.....I know he had declined offers in the past.
ProcessYaDigg Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 If we can get an elite passer, like Rosen, and not give up both 1st round picks, it should hopefully be a win for us. Please Buffalo, don't screw this up.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 1 hour ago, Putin said: Will this year’s draft have more trades then we can remember? So Denver would pass on Rosen and take a Guard ? Denver has what, $18M invested in QB this year? How did Gettleman put it - "there isn't a QB in the NFL who will say, don't worry about the middle, let 'em through and I'll take care of it". Denver could do way dumber things. OTOH keep in mind this winning guy predicted 28 of 32 1st round players last year, but only matched 9 to the correct team.
Mr. WEO Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I'm a big Keenum fan, but I don't see Denver passing on a QB and waiting a few years for something else down the road. Anyway, I'm thinking of going in on a sushi pop-up that would only operate between the SB and the Draft. It's called "Mock and Roll". Thoughts?

I think you would be: 1) surprised at amount of busts at other positions and 2) horrified at how bad the ratio gets after the 1st round.
whatdrought Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 @26CornerBlitz Hey, I know you are big on Rosen- (I am less a fan of his, but would still be happy if he is the "guy") but can you give me your opinion on the alleged attitude issues, and the injury history that we hear as knocks on him? I am not looking for a debate, just wanting to get to a point where I really understand the sides. Anyone else is welcome to respond as well.

If it's real, that's impressive. And I may have missed it, but who does he think won't bust in this year's draft?

I am not looking for a debate, just wanting to get to a point where I really understand the sides. Anyone else is welcome to respond as well. Rosen is my #1 QB too. But he does suffer from turnovers vs Pressure. And it's evident here vs Memphis Look at 4:48-4:50 and 12:19-12:24 when the pressure starts getting to Josh he'll lose his mechanics with the quickness and go into this protection type throw and it results in turnovers. But other than that, there's just so much good. Tight Window throws; NFL Anticipation; lots of passing to the middle of the field; eye manipulation; pass placement in 1 v 1 situations. Lots to like IMO. For the most part very solid mechanics, probably the best in the class (just not against pressure). To me a Day 1 starter. Edited April 13, 2018 by NewEraBills 1
Domdab99 Posted April 13, 2018 Posted April 13, 2018 I would not mind this draft! And that site is A+. Thanks for the link.

And we can take LVE or Maurice Hurst. Pretty dreamy draft
