I would love to draft Ed Oliver. How much better is he going to be than Christian Wilkins though?

IMO, much better. Oliver was not only dominant in college but he is an insane athlete. Wilkins will very likely be a very good player but Oliver seems to be one of those guys that is just going to be special.

Wilkins was outstanding with a really good line around him.  Oliver was scary good with not alot around him.  For Houston last year no one had more than 6 sacks.  In 2017 when Oliver had 5.5 sacks no one else on the team had more than 2.  It's like what Charles Johnson did back in 2010 & 2011.  One guy getting to the QB and everyone else looking around.  If the offensive line is focused on stopping 1 guy and he is still getting to the QB, he is probably going to be pretty good when he gets to the NFL and they can't focus on 1 guy anymore.

    • I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).
    • I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move 
    • While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
