It's that time of the year for me.

Lots of people could sleep on Will Hernandez,  he is a really big guy.  I would say 2 normal sized people and at least 1 dog or 3 children and maybe 2 dogs. 

Trick question.  How big are the children and what breed of dog?

He would step right in at LG and start day 1, and not many can say that.  I think he is about 340 and moves like a deer.

Been talking to my friend (a nfl scout) about some of the prospects in the draft, and as I do every year, I will drop the things that I am hearing from him here that maybe isn't being heard elsewhere. 

Mike Hughes is the best CB in the draft and is a top 15 pick (off field character concerns may push Ward ahead in draft order) 
Calvin Ridley is a blue chip wide receiver prospect and is far ahead of what Corey Davis was coming out 
The top two quarterbacks in this class are better than any qb coming out in five years besides Carson Wentz 
Connor Williams is the best tackle prospect in this draft as opposed to Mike McGlinchey 
People are sleeping on Stanford defensive tackle Harrison Philips, UTEP guard Will Hernandez, Georgia running back Nick Chubb, Iwoa center James Daniels, and Louisville corner Jaire Alexander, all of which he expects to go within the top 40. 

I'll drop whatever else I hear from him here. 
 

Thanks, good stuff. Because there's so many differing opinions out there, which two QB's does he mean?

According to a scout in an NFL interview, ridley is still the top ranked WR. The scout also said he's better than all three WRs took in the 1st last draft.

Ridley is a blue chip talent and people are really underrating him.

What's his take on the 4-3 DEs? They look like trash to me past Chubb. Ejiofor intrigues me in the mid-rounds if he's there. Davenport is the big wildcard to me, but I think his measurables get him drafted in the top 15.

Davenport is a top 15 guy. Other first round guys who could slide in art DE in the first. Landry (top 20), Hubbard, Key. Ejiofor needs to be more consistent, and needs developments.

A couple guys we have talked about that maybe people aren't talking about in the first three rounds:
James Washington 
Keke Coutee 
DJ Moore 
Justin Reid 
Marcus Allen 
Jessie Bates
 

What do you mean by this? That despite us talking about them they aren't getting much love in the media, however they ARE all expected in the first three rounds? Or that people in the NFL aren't talking about any of them in the first three rounds? (that would surprise me, so I'd bet the former, but just looking for clarification)

    • I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs
    • I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6
    • Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
