You guys need to watch more tape of guys before the draft.

Yall cant start seeing guys for the first time on draft night and then turn around and offer any opinions.

Start watching videos of guys that are protected 3-6 rounders a couple of weeks before the draft. But do it this way. 

With NO sound. You come up with your OWN assessment and this will help you see who the player reminds you off and understand their nuances.

This will actually help you to see talent more from a War Room perspective instead of spoon fed talking heads drivel.

When i would evaluate a kid in baseball and help their swing i would tell them to watch pro players in a game with the sound off and take notes. Removing the commentary helped them come to thier own conclusions and became a better player.

A few years back I had one of our resident nimrods argue me that they could evaluate a player just as well as an NFL guy because they had access to videos on the internet.

I'd like to think that was one isolated guy but watching the massive display of stupid that's going on in this forum, that view may be held by quite a few folks here.

My little brother is notorious for this poo. He loves the draft (don't we all), but then he'll be like damn bro I don't like this guy or damn that's a great pick and I'm like bro I don't think you've ever watched one down of college football in your life.

Honestly for a lot of these guys, with the exception of workouts and poo, the scouts basically only have YouTube videos. 

Of course they know what they're looking at, unlike xxxCloudStrifePanthersFan420

I love the youtube videos that show every play a guy had in a game. Those can actually be very insightful and they are what made me know Gabbert would be poo while Lord Mayock was declaring him better than Cam.

I would go to the Shrine Bowls and my buddies would go right ro the programs and i didn’t want to know anything about a guy. Then during the game you would see who stood out. THEN i would ask my buddies so who is #24 or 99 is killing guys etc.

I love those.

"Highlight reel scouting" is a lousy way to evaluate a player. Everybody looks great when are you see are their good plays.

CloudStrife has a lot of scouting experience.

      Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft

      Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
