Word on the street: Gurley going top 10

[t96]

Their offense would be legitimately dangerous if they draft him and Matthews improves at LT.

 

It already has been legitimately dangerous. It's the D that's their problem. And no matter how good Gurley is he won't be dominating behind that interior.

What street?  Sesame Street?  No one knows poo except that Winston is probably going #1.

and even that's not a given.

Mcshay has Gurley going 6 but he doesnt know poo, so theres that

In his latest podcast, he admits that he knew 100% that Juwan James was going to Miami last year but he didn't put it in his mock drafts bc he promised them he wouldn't. I wish he would have kept that to himself. Before I thought he might just not know what he was talking about. That's way better than now knowing he just blatantly lies in mocks so he can continue to get inside info.

Jaguars addressed the o line and secondary in the offseason, i think they shock everybody and go gurly 3rd overall

Shouldn't be a shock, he's the best player in the draft.

[WUnderhill]

Good. Hope Melvin Gordon goes before we're on the clock, too. The more guys picked ahead of us at lower value positions, the better.

[Chaos]

Doubt he would be there when we pick anyways, so good for him where ever he goes, and if drafted by a division rival, I hope he's a huge bust.

[Gin and Juice]

I have given up the part of trying to figure out "who" we pick at number 25. I just take comfort in know that whatever position our chosen player plays then that unit will get very much stronger.

The fact that I hated the Kelvin pick showed me that I don't know poo about talent evaluation. My only hope is we get stronger and better on both our lines in this draft

Any team using Kiper as a valid source of war room intel, needs to start taking the draft a little more seriously

That wasn't a really well kept secret. The Miami media had reports the Dolphins loved James and he could be the pick at 19 like 2 weeks before the draft.

[CarolinaCoolin]

Yeah his stock has just sky rocketed this last week or two. Even before that Arizona would take him at 24 before us

They weren't all that dangerous last season. The Panthers held them to 3 points on the final game of the season and scored several times.

The medical re-check has teams believing he won't have to start the year on the PUP list and could be ready to go by week 1 so that's the reason for the stock going up.

[UpstatePanther]

I'm OK with that.  They still can't rush the passer, and Luke and TD can just about neutralize any back.

 

yea Luke, TD, and Shaq Thompson are going to break Gurley's ankles laying him out

 

(yep... thats Shaq Thompson to the Panthers at 25!)
