He ain't betting nothing. His whole story has change since he did the source thing in the other thread. He said his source didn't know who we would be going after. Now all of a sudden he knows it would be Little. To now saying Dillard would be the pick. Everyone knows we are not picking damn Little at 16. I think we are taking a DE, DL or S first pick

In my thread I state multiple times he thinks we are going to take offensive line, and felt it would be Dillard, but w/e believe what you want.

Did you expect that guy to actually read the first whole sentence in the OP...rofl.

Some people on here you just gotta know not to respond to.

That's the thing, nobody can know for certain where a player will go.  The best you can do is estimate the range of his value and reason out teams that may have interest.  With that you can make connections and projections.

So, I don't get why anyone bitches when a player doesn't get picked by the specific team in the exact slot he was mocked to...it's just impossible to know before hand.  And that doesn't even take into account the hidden info we fans and even high profile evaluators at places such as NFL.com don't have access to.  For instance, there are often medical or other red flags that may cause a player to drop out of his value range, or he may have interviewed poorly and left a sour taste in the mouth of the team...neither of which anyone outside of the team building will know about.

Personally, I just like mocks to give me an idea where a players range lies (even though it's based on limited info), and appreciate those who make them.

Things I have been told/reading in between the lines, here is what I have come up with my best GUESS

16: 
Greg Little, T, OLE Miss or Andre Dillard, T, WASST
(Other options: Cody Ford, Brian Burns, Garret Bradbury, Clemson DT)
Make no mistake, if Andre Dillard is here, he will be the pick, it seems less and less likely that it will happen that way. Little has all the talent of a of a Laremy Tunsil, just truly needs to work on technique to be a high level starter on the left side. This draft has a clear emphasis on not letting an injury on the oline derail our season, and if a high level tackle is here (Dillard, Little, Ford), we will pursue them. (Obviously, I don't think Sweat will be here)
 

 

47: 
Christian Miller, OLB, ALA 
(Other options: Nasir Adderly, Darnell Savage, Bobby Evans, Zach Allen, Dalton Risner)
If we don't get o-line in the first, I would expect Bobby Evans here. Miller fits the mold we need off the edge, and has a very high ceiling for a pass rusher. I don't buy the noise of a QB here. 

77: 
Will Grier, QB, WV
(Other options: Tytus Howard, Deebo Samuel)
It's clear we want to upgrade the backup QB position and make him sort of an insurance policy for Cam Newton's shoulder. Tyree Jackson or Clayton Thorton make sense in later round if we don't get Grier here. 

100: 
Miles Sanders, RB, PENN
Versatile RB that fits in the sort of bigger receiving back we are looking for. }

115: 
Phil Haynes, G, WF 
Excellent run blocking guard that swallows defenders whole. Solidify the offensive line even more. 

154: 
Blace Brown, CB, TROY 
Awesome zone corner that was slowed down due to injury, fits our scheme really well. 

187: 
CJ Conrad, TE, KEN
Have a need to fill at tight end with Olsen getting older, Conrad provides a developmental option who brings an edge in run blocking. 


 

Well done Verge. Later rounds are a crap shoot.  Can’t wait for next year.
