Mel does not think the kid from Clemson is a top pick.....

The guy is a moron.

I think GMs purposely  feed him inaccurate info to get a kick out of his foolishness.

Ya think?  Jimmy Clausen says hi

 

Its more like organizations pay him to blow smoke up peoples ass so they have a better chance at getting their guy

I hate Mel as much as the next guy. However, save the cam and Luke picks which he obviously got completely wrong (unless he had Luke going earlier which would then make him actually smarter) you can probably argue that every one of his picks would be more useful to us than our draft pick. Hate to play devils advocate here...

Cooks would've been there, we would've picked him.  Sadly, the only player that was available that Mel Mocked to us was Ogbah.  And he was about as useful as Butler this year.

    • thats fair.   I was beginning to think rookie punter was in the plans 
    • Sam Martin   CARPunter#6 Panthers re-signed P Sam Martin to a two-year contract. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Martin’s deal is up to $5 million. Martin joined the Panthers last season on a one-year deal and wound up booting 56 punts for an average of 47.2 yards per punt. Martin is a 13-year vet of the league who has spent time with four different franchises. He landed a career-best 48.2 percent of his kicks inside his opponent’s 20-yard line last season.
    • Surprised CB is that low.  19th is odd spot. For many recent drafts, teams only felt there were around 14 first round players.  So to many 19 is just an early second and doesn't hold the value of a first.  If you go off- the smart path of LT, QB, edge, WR, CB, etc. Whatever your OG, Safety, ILB, etc needs to be a difference maker, that's the key point. I've said the 8th best edge is better than the 1st safety. Same for QB and even WRs. You should 100% factor in position value.  MHS you've been wanting a FS, let me tell you its super difficult to be a difference making FS. You're just sooo farrrr away from the action and the end result most times. If you're in the play, defense made mistakes in order. Now to talk out of both sides, maaaaaann that white boy from Oregon....I thought he crushed the combine and honestly that alone made me rethink "is he worth 19 now?!?!" he's now in the discussion for me, but still below others.    Plus I feel TE is vastly underrated in value terms. But looking at the last 20 years of TEs in the first, its down right bad. You're better like X10 better drafting one in 4th or 5th.
