  1. We very well might draft the guy they wanted at #7 (or trade down with someone who will) at #8 if they made that deal.
  2. It's very possible and honestly quite likely that we have one ranked significantly above the other as prospects. I'm torn on which way I'd go there, but I'm leaning hard toward Fields. Tough as a fan to make a call there though because so much of that evaluation comes from the interviews with the players and their coaches to determine how well they're going to translate to the NFL.
  3. The difference with us is that they'd be able to pick up an additional pick and still get the same player they would've gotten at #7. They'd be gaining something while giving up nothing. With other teams' offers they would get more trade compensation but they very well may be giving up the player they wanted at #7 too.
  4. If the Lions wanted Lance in that situation they'd pick him. Trading up one spot would be about not letting the Broncos or WFT leap frog us to get him.
  5. I want a lot of things I ain't gonna get.
  6. All of that plus their overall D was #9 in the country and #1 in the SEC.
  7. WFT or Broncos would be the two biggest contenders to make a move like that IMO.
  8. TAMU got carried by their defense. They ran a ball control offense. Whether that was due to Mond's limitations or coaching philosophy I don't know. Early in the year I was intrigued by his physical tools, but the more I watched the more inconsistencies I saw.
  9. I'll be ready for this conversation if QB doesn't work out in the 1st. Once we're talking about these guys, we're well into the "Oh fug, this is NOT going well" section of the QB shopping list.
  10. Just based on what Rhule and Tepper have said about what they're looking for in their next QB, I can't see them being high on Jones. They got an up close and personal look at a smart, accurate, but physically limited QB last season. They want a physical stud.
  11. They have the #4 overall pick. They're gonna end up with a great prospect. I'd much rather they use that pick on a TE than a far more premium position.
  12. Tannehill was WAY better in Miami than Darnold has been in NY though. Tannehill just looked like he was gonna be stuck in that middle of the road tier starter category and Miami wanted to try to do better than that. Tannehill ended up in a much better situation and took a significant step forward. A significant step forward for Darnold would be getting to that middle of the road tier.
  13. Sure. It's the big four and the downfall of Kyle Shanahan.
  14. A corner good in run support... that's like immediately talking about a WR's blocking. A subtle way of hinting that he sucks at his primary job.
  15. Pitts going earlier than #8 is great for us. Should be at least one WR go too. Again, great for us.
  16. Works for me though if I'm nitpicking I'd prefer to flip flop #3 and #4.
  17. To wash away the stench of your poo posting today? I'd suggest Niagara Falls.
  18. If it happens I hope it's during the draftm I'd prefer to see how things shake out before settling for trading for someone else's trash.
  19. I like Fields and Lance both but I have serious questions about both. Just gonna have to trust the staffs evaluations on them. Hell, I'd say that about Wilson too for that matter. So much of prospect evaluations - particularly at QB - come down to the interviews, both with the prospects and their coaches, etc
  20. My preference would be QB in the 1st, OL in the 2nd.
  21. I said when we released him I'd be fine with it. The base honestly needs to be close to vet min though. Load it with plenty of incentives.
  22. Well, no poo. If they actually want to trade him they'll have to take less than a 1st because I can't see anyone giving up a 1st.
  23. Seems like a lot of the best OTs over the past 20 years or so fit this mold. They lack the ideal measurables and everyone wants to try to convert them to OG. Northwestern isn't a powerhouse school but they play in the Big Ten so he was routinely facing too college competition. There should be no shortage of film of him facing future NFL pass rushers.
