Morgan has mentioned moving back, sitting at 8, but not moving up.  FWIW

Jeanty is the linchpin for this first half of the draft. 

He really is. It's better for us I think if he drops to 8 but I'm not so sure. You have to make Dallas believe someone is going to trade up for him because they are really the only sucker's behind us the world trade up in the 1st for a RB. Even that would be difficult because my gut says the Bears will probably go WR, OT or TE. Our next best bet would be the Colts if Warren is there.

Aaron Rodgers is a dick.  He has family problems or something that is keeping him from declaring--and that screws Pittsburgh up.  I think he wants the NFL Network and ESPN talking about him.  You don't screw up the team and say, "Family problems....might retire.....dunno.  I will let you know before camp--go ahead and do what you need to do."  He knows the Steelers don't have many options.   

I think he's done and just ego boosting himself.

I watched some clips, if not for prayer balls to Adams his movement was 2015 manning bad. I dont feel he's healed from Achilles tendon rupture. Ill bet whatever he used some holistic healing BS and it didn't heal correct. 

Steelers should be the team to watch this draft. 

I feel saints do in fact want to draft dart at 9, once that happens.... sanders stock just rising and a few teams will be calling teams for trades. 

Steelers are one and they need a QB....BAD.

This is the first draft i can remember where i don't have a specific pick at want in the first. I'll honestly be ok with whomever they select. Walker, Williams, OL, DL doesn't matter to me. I'm more curious than anything at this point.

You mean the saints at 9--but that would blow my mind.  Had a guy on another board say Sanders could be the 4th QB taken--I don't see first round QB, but I dont see it with Dart or Milroe.  Dart has a personality that can take over a locker room.  Milroe is a beast of an athlete.  Sanders could be getting overly scrutinized for reasons beyond his control.

I think we found a trade partner and they want Tet. 

Dallas at 12?

I am just joining--what did you hear?

Someone unknown tweeted something vague about our interest in McMillan.

Odds shifted big time to Tet going at 8. Just my speculation.

Vegas lines don't move like that from an unknown tweet. There is a development in the connected world, but we don't know what.

So we inferred that means we have a trade partner.  I am missing something here--

Draft smokescreen and all, but I think that's current feel among "experts". It's sorta like ward going #1 while he's like the 10th best player. Saints don't feel they can risk trading back into the first for a "maybe" chance at landing him at 24. If you're willing to a do all that, the smart and safe move is go ahead and draft Dart at 9. The smart deal is a couple players you consider at 9, will still be there at 40....Dart will not make it there.

I feel dart is lock to be a first rounder, right or wrong...

Probably there is an agreement in place pending Mason not being there or something like that.  Thanks
