Benefit of having Brady is his inside knowledge of LSU players, both offense and defense.  Rhule has mentioned several times of his preference for directly knowing players.  Wouldn’t be surprised if Rhule would take or stay away from Delpit based substantially on Brady’s recommendation.

It was proven long, long ago (in the 1960's) when you play the best of college players against an NFL team, the college players LOSE.

If Rhule and Brady have plans to implace the Carolina roster with LSU and Baylor/Temple players and win in the NFL?

Good fuggin' luck, my friend.

Wonder what Brady thinks of Derrick Brown.  He was a wrecking crew against LSU last year.

Cam Dantzler or Grant Delpit in the 2nd? 

I wouldn’t trust those pro day times. One of Delpit’s weakness is average range. If you run a 4.38, you don’t have average range. If you don’t run at the combine when you have 4.38 speed, it’s because you don’t have that speed.

Here’s a great example to remind everyone:

Funchess Combine: 4.70

Funchess Pro-Day: 4.47

So Funchess at his pro day was almost as fast as these guys. If Delpit has average range, he’s not a 4.38 guy, he’s a combine 4.5-4.6 guy. Justin Reid fell to the top of the 3rd two years ago, Delpit for us is 69, but honestly will he be better than what we have? If we take him at 38, he doesn’t improve our team.

Yup, as much as I like this safety class, I wouldn't take one before round 3.  I'm not a huge fan of Delpit.  We are going to miss out on Winfield Jr, Chinn and possibly Dugger by waiting to the the 3rd, but I really can't justify it any earlier.  Chinn would be super tempting in the 2nd though.

SNY's Ralph Vacchiano believes the Giants "lean towards" an offensive tackle over Clemson LB Isaiah Simmons with the No. 4 overall pick. 

Vacchiano also reports that GM Dave Gettleman is "definitely interested" in trading down -- something he's never done before as a shot caller -- but there's doubt that a trade market exists for that pick with the Lions (No. 3) also a trade down candidate. For now, it's more likely that the Giants stay put and take the best player available. Assuming Chase Young and Jeffrey Okudah are off the board, most believe that will be Simmons, DT Derrick Brown, or one of the consensus top-4 offensive tackles. It's unclear how the Giants rank this loaded offensive tackle class, but Daniel Jones should be happy with any of them

That counts.  Between Brady and Rhule, they saw some good DTs.  Auburn, S.Car, Tex AM, TCU, Missouri, Oklahoma---SEC and Big 12 is where they are...

Until Simmons got to be a trendy choice for the Giants recently, for weeks many mocks had the G-men taking an OT.

I think they have to go OT...Gettlemen drafted Jones and needs to reduce the number of fumbles and sacks.  Simmons will be on the board when we pick.  mark my words typography GIF by LINDA VAN BRUGGEN

    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
