Well it's Prisco, so....

Prisco is a pretty huge Falcons homer. I don't listen to anything he says. Most of the pundits, really.

 

He was a Jaguars beat writer

[Frank Hollywood]

Well we tried, guys. Let's forfeit this year and try again in 2017.

when did the huddle go center justified?

There are some smart guys out there!

30. CAROLINA PANTHERS

Vernon Butler, DT, Louisiana Tech

GRADE: A

Losing Josh Norman means that the Panthers will need to reinforce their defense in other ways, because there wasn't an equivalent talent to Norman on the board at 30. Butler may have received small-school dings from some, but his tape screams NFL starter. He's 6' 4" and 323 pounds with great length, and he combines the speed and strength to take up any gap. He can also hold his own in coverage, and he'll command double teams on most every play.

This same guy gave the Falcons a C.  Said Quinn is hoping to recreate Kam Chancellor with Neal

How do the Buccaneers get a better grade for drafting a 5'10" corner, who has to defend arguably the strongest receiver in the league and is very close to 6'6" tall?

It is ALWAYS a good thing when the keyboard jockeys grade you poorly. 

[caatfan]

Most draft 'experts' are gonna insist on grading for need, rather than value, so we'll just keep losing the draft and winning games.

[Sam Mills Fan]

I get the kneejerk response that we don't need a defensive tackle. But guess what? We went 17-2 last year and have very few positions of need. There was no corner or receiver even close to being a worth a 1st rounder at 30, Ifedi not a sure thing at all, Dodd not as dominant at his position (which just so happens to be yet another position we're strong at, seeing a trend here? Again, we went 17-2) as Butler was at his, and Derrick Henry is the absolute wrong kind of back for this offense. Butler was the right pick, good job Gettleman.

A C today.  A A two years from now.

We should call up Prisco before every pick, ask who he thinks we shouldn't take, and then take that player.
