Who is your first round slider

Jaelen Strong.

This guy is gonna be a beast. He's similar to Benjamin but he's faster and possesses more consistent hands.

 

I agree.  I LOVE the guy.  I just don't think we're interested.  I haven't seen that we've visited with him in any way during the pre-draft process.

Marcus Mariota...

 

Dude is ridiculously hyped up by the media. He had an average Pro Day that showed he needs more work than what was originally thought. That deep accuracy is poo!

 

Yeah, IMO his NFL career may hinge on whether or not Chip can swing a deal to land him.  Chip knows exactly what he's getting and knows Mariota can run his system the way he wants it ran.  I'm not sure Mariota would translate to the NFL for any other team.

Twitter rumor this morning that Gregory has some mental issues or something scaring teams away. Like, he's not even on a few teams boards AT ALL. I think he could slide a huge amount. Ray and Collins as well, but those three are known sliders at this point.

 

I could see Melvin Gordon sliding into the middle of the 2nd, unless Dallas trades up for him at the end of the 1st or something. Landon Collins as well.

    • Smitty is a legendary footballer player but this has really damaged his reputation as a person. You don’t cheat on a woman who has been with you through everything and gave you children and especially not with another man’s wife. He doesn’t even have any remorse about it, acting like nothing happened.
    • That's a big ass center! Is there any center in the NFL that weighs 320 lbs? Also, we drafted a center last season. Not sure this guy is a center even if he took reps at the senior bowl. Looks like a guard to me unless his build is better suited to a lesser weight. In a zone scheme centers need to be able to move quickly. 
    • The majority of NFL draft picks don't play all too many snaps lined up directly across from another NFL player, and I don't think many people really realize this. Unless you play a game against one of the 2-4 schools that are putting half their lineup into the NFL each season, most teams who have multiple draft picks, MIGHT only have 2-4 draft picks in any given season. Some skill positions get around 30 players drafted each year, other positions are in the teens to low 20's.  With at least a handful of them coming from non power conference schools too.  So the odds for any WR or CB to get too many games lined up directly against another future draft pick is pretty low. The better odds are that they get lined up against a future NFL player, i.e. a junior or senior WR getting lined up against a freshman or sophomore DB who will get drafted in a couple of years. Then if you take it one step further and look for players who actually play in the NFL and make a difference.   You're basically looking at players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the draft, so a little less than 100 players a year, spread out across all the positions and conferences (which in today's massive conferences, teams have even lower odds of player the teams with more NFL players than ever before).
