Not whether but that

edit: moot
Thanks e5 yaz
You asked: This is a dumb reason to draft a 1st round RB, especially when it’s not even a need. Do we even know Lawrence likes playing with him anyway.

The response: Do we? No. Do they? Yes.

So yes, THEY know whether THEY like playing with each other.

Well, you can never have enough pass rushing. Bills can bring Rosseau along over the next couple years, develop the obvious tools.

There's gonna be some really good players left to start the second round. Would love to see NE move up - can't really use all their picks, I don't think.

He literally fell down a couple of times trying to get around the edge during his pro-day workout.
Here’s the thing, I didn’t know that, I just glimpsed at his “highlights” as they were shown on the NFLN so I have to be missing a lot.

Why did Asante not get drafted yet. Maybe I’m looking through my garnet and gold glasses but I know his highlights are way better than some of these

edit: looked him up, bad grade hmmm, anyone know his average projection?

Jenkins, Moore and Barmore are on the same tier for me. I'd be happy to get any of them.

Strange pick, but Baltimore is good at this so he'll probably turn into a complete stud.
He's clay they can possibly mold into an All Pro. If they feel like the know why he under-performed at Penn State and fix that, it's a great pick.

So who are the trade up candidates (and projected cost) to move up to get Moore or Barmore? I could start to really buy into this draft if we could snag one of those two.

Assuming we want to spend down some of our 4th rounders, and using the Hill chart, 46+120 = 39 so if one of those players lasts 7 picks, it might start to make sense. I'm not sure Car will be looking for extra picks, so possibly DET at 41, who were rumored to want picks before Sewell fell in their laps. Maybe they'd take 46 + 139.

He’s solidly in the 2nd tier of CBs and will get drafted tomorrow. A little under-sized, but great skills and production in terms of picks and break ups. But also had a high number of PI flags. Maybe a better fit for zone-heavy schemes, but he can definitely have a long career in the NFL.
