wandler20 posted:He had an up and down year but got better as the year went on and had more good than bad. He always needed a year to get his body NFL ready but wasn't ever a liability. The athleticism transferred to the pro game so spending a year in an NFL training program should do him wonders. He should be the starting RG until further notice. Jason Licht knows how to draft OL. and with a real center next to him next year I suspect he'll look above average at the spot. we might have a run game again  also ignore Mcmagic on the Odunze thing, he's salty the Falcons wouldn't trade back and the Jets couldn't get Odunze. It was clearly the correct pick for the Bears.

The Browns drafted. They picked some players. Will it matter? Probably not. They are the Browns.

I accidentally tripped balls during the second round of the draft. Like came up so fast and so hard I barely made it to the couch and nearly had a floor night. I was peaking during the crescendo of my favorite High Song right as the Panthers drafted Brooks so he's basically my favorite player of all time now.

the bucs draft was not sexy but it was solid. i wish they would have gone for the high value prospects that dropped like tj tampa but i can't really point to any one pick as bad. hoping mcmillan is the guy that ends up standing out as a third round steal

Everyone is shook in criticizing Brad Holmes because it turns out so far he's a good drafter that zigs when everyone else zags and now sports media is afraid of him due to his villain status.

If the Patriots are bad enough to be picking third again they better not take a goddam DT. Especially since he mocks an OT with the very next pick. If they're dogshit it will be in large part because they do not have 5 pro-level guys on the O line.

yeah leaking that bong video DEFINITELY didn't cause laremy tunsil to majorly fall in the draft that's a crock. GMs and team management absolutely pay attention to the media and the stuff that comes out in it. but even if they don't, who cares? it's still a bitch move. in fact it's even more of a bitch move if you assume that there's no strategy or intent behind it, they're just dragging guys because they can even though it will make no difference. how does that make it better?

It's quite different floating around a "dude has character concerns" rumor and uploading a video of him smoking weed through a gas mask an hour before the draft on mass social media though, obviously the latter will have a much greater impact

I don't talk about people behind their backs, that's an incredibly lame thing to do. and doing this is even worse because you're doing it anonymously and in a way that is guaranteed to reach millions of people so I think Ballard being dismissive and pejorative about this kind of 'leak' is entirely correct and proper

yeah, it's lovely and in an ideal world would never happen, but people will always sucks I guess. like Daltos said, I don't think real GMs will let players slide if it's mostly rumors and unsubstantiated stuff. the Tunsil video was egregious though, and it directly impacted him because he was penciled in to the Ravens, but after going through the Ray Rice poo poo I think they kinda panicked and picked Stanley, who was another elite prospect

I looked up Isaiah Wilson's draft profile to see if they mentioned anything approaching character concerns considering him being one of the higher profile examples of bombing out of the league (this side of vehicular manslaughter), but all it has is:quote:Player Bio Well at least we know Payton would have him off his board immediately.

There were a bunch of rumors/stories about Spencer Rattler falling as far as he did because he looked kinda bad on a Netflix show when he was in high school Im sure GMs know more about guys than the media does, or at least they know this stuff sooner, but there's no guarantee they are smarter for it or not also suckered in by the noise

Play posted:yeah leaking that bong video DEFINITELY didn't cause laremy tunsil to majorly fall in the draft So the billionaires that have all the resources in the world at their fingertips and an entire scouting department that can talk directly to college coaches pays attention to twitter enough that someone saying a WR has character concerns will cause 32 GMs in the league to pass on them. You have no idea what you're talking about. The Laremy Tunsil move is the only time where your argument holds the least bit of water. That was done vindictively and even then it only caused him to drop a few spots over where he was being mocked. Adonai didn't drop because people on twitter said he had character concerns, he dropped because teams probably got that confirmed from Texas and he wasn't as good as the draftniks whose opinions you regurgitate said he was.

Sorry if you drafted a WR with a career YPRR under 2. You might as well be spinning a roulette wheel. https://twitter.com/scottbarrettdfb/status/1785072212573127154?s=46 https://twitter.com/scottbarrettdfb/status/1785184388222759118?s=46

I could believe him picking Manziel based on selling tickets/jerseys while still believing in the talent, but I don't believe there are are owners rushing to their scouting department to tell them not to draft someone because there was a bad report on twitter.
