Golden jumping Tet is crazy to me. Prospect fatigue killing him. 

Well you do have to consider that most draftniks are idiots. Look at Mel Kiper, for instance. Considered a pioneer but one of the least knowledgeable guys in that field.

Right. Day 3 only though. Obviously he's more quick than fast.

I ran a 4.6 in high school, and I didn't even run track or train for it. Granted that's probably closer to a laser timed 4.8. I was the slowest runner in my high school backfield - they were all track sprinters though. 

I was first in the mile among all backs and ends (wideouts and TE's).  I'll never publicly give up my 40 time, though.  No bueno.

Not sure if it is draft fatigue or not. A lot of times the analysts are wrong and get closer to what actual NFL people think the closer the draft gets. This might have been the true direction for a long time.

Combine, pro days, etc. giving numbers.   people in groups (scouts, coaches, players) talk.  More data, more rumor fodder.

What you guys think about Desmond Watson.  464 lb DL who put up 36 reps of 225

Honestly, if he's there in the 7th why not.  Can use him on 3rd/4th and 1. Would like to see a 450lb dude line up with 2 350 lb dudes beside him against the tush push

I’d jump on Jaylen Noel later in the draft. Deep threat with return ability.

Either of the Iowa State guys I'd be happy with, Noel or Higgins.  Noel is projected as a slot guy, Higgins on the outside.  Depends on what he team values more.

    • I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money. 
    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
