Rhule is destroying this draft because he recruited all of these guys over the past 5 years and watched them play up close and personal every Saturday.

he will probably dominate the draft for the foreseeable future lmao.

Agree with you except for Derrick Brown.  Brown was a top 5 recruit in the entire country and Temple was never anywhere near his radar.  That being said, it wasn't hard to get information about Derrick Brown as one of the best high school players in the country followed by being one of the best college players in the country for four years.

the fact that Rhule doesn't have to recruit now, and can pick whoever tf he wants or have Tepper throw money at someone is bad news for the league.

It’s similar to the Seahawks drafts when Carroll got there initially, for like 4-5 years they were elite at drafting and it almost built them a dynasty. In more recent years their drafts have sucked. Our next several drafts with Rhule leading the charge will be great but after that we’ll need a different strategy — hopefully we’ve hired a great GM by then.

Not sure this is entirely accurate. Baylor didn't play Auburn, Penn St or SIU once in his 3 years there. And I highly doubt while he was focusing on scheming against the teams he actually had to play, he was heavily scouting these other teams he didn't have on his schedule, particularly an FBS team. Or to say he has some special insight on these players he never played against in college over pro scouts whose primary job is to watch their college tape seems far fetched. Also if that were the case, you'd think the track record for coaches making the leap from college to the NFL would be a lot better, at minimum in the drafting department. 

That's not to say he doesn't deserve a large amount of credit for these picks. Undoubtedly traits he values are going to be emphasized. I suspect it's more along the lines of Hurney and the scouting department compile their draft lists with strengths and weaknesse of each prospect and Rhule will say "Amongst these players and based on these evals, I want that guy cause he has the measurables/attitude/versatility/etc that is needed for success on this team."

Gotta figure teams who played LSU in there as well.

You realize Tepper's billions are a non factor because he's restrained by the same salary cap as every other team, right? Granted we dont 'have to worry about a cheap owner like some teams do, but that aside Tepper's money doesn't matter when it comes to players. It can definately help in other areas like facilities, top flight coaching staff etc.

I'm not really sure you can judge that right now. Give me three years and I will tell you. With so many holes this year it looks like we are rebuilding the defense. Next draft will probably be offense heavy to sure up the oline.

    • Rams since you beat them already and they are 0-2 on the road against NFC South teams.
    • Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again.  Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss.  Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it.  The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played.  With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit.  I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.               
    • I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.
