Alot of these "analysts" just need to do their homework

He definitely knows football. But unfortunately if the criteria for being stupid or lazy was not liking Cam, there would be a long list of folks as Cam is polarizing just like guys like Tom Brady. You love him or hate him with little middle ground

Maybe the fundamentals but he doesn't know anything about what's going on the NFL. I know he's your uncle and all but this is sad.

They say great minds think alike...

Anyway, if you follow this stuff for years, you pretty much know that analysts generally don't have the time to research the minutiae of every team as pertaining to the draft, so they largely do these things based upon their own perception of a team's needs, or just simply parrot the consensus. Moreover, in the grand scheme of things, Gettleman is still new(ish), so it may still take them a little time to learn---and believe---his draft philosophy. Frankly, it's not a bad thing for hardcore fans to "teach" analysts (but only if they listen) because it will hopefully make for better analysis in the future.

Honestly, mocks are probably not the highest on the totem pole in regards to their job responsibilities because it's largely a crap shoot anyway that's not to be taken too seriously. Only the really foolish fans live and die by what a mock says. They are a trivial guessing game---largely space eaters and fillers---until the real thing.

I feel that but this isn't me and you making a mock draft. This is this guys job and by working for the NFL im assuming he makes a good amount doing it. He should be taking that extra step and knowing these details about each team, as it is his job. IMO.
