Apparently Seantrel Henderson felt "dehydrated and sick" which probably means he got sauced last night.

I'm excited that Kyle Fuller keeps getting a bunch of mid to late 1st round buzz. It'd be great for the Hokies recruiting to get a 2nd 1st rounder in 3 years after only having 3 in the decade prior. Also DBU etc

Brandin Cooks, on DeSean Jackson:quote:"His game is unbelievable," said Cooks. "The man can blow the top off, catch the deep routes, catch the underneath routes, produce in the return game. He’s just special. He’s a freak. I definitely admire his game. Maybe Chip Kelly is looking to take another speedy receiver in that first round, and that could be me. Who knows? And if that’s the case, a lot of people will wonder ‘Can he do it like DeSean Jackson?’ In my opinion, I can do it like him and do it better." e: I included that last paragraph to make doltos cringe

bhsman posted:How does he project as a slot corner? He's a guy I've been hoping the Texans grab. I mean honestly the only draftable talent we generally seem to have is at DB so by numbers sure, but LSU pumps out talent all over. DBs are all we got it feels like. Y'all beat the tar out of us last time we played so I can't really say much to refute that position I suppose. I'm sure he can play the slot, he's got enough speed to cover the smaller faster guys that seem to be put inside in the NFL, although I think he's better when he's on the outside and able to challenge WRs for the entire route 1 on 1. VT moved him all over and if he's in the slot it puts him closer to run coverage where he excels. Go watch the film of him against GT this past year to see what he can do put into that slot position closer to the snap (although he was playing our whip LB position it's kind of a hybrid role that often has slot coverage responsibilities). I guess if he makes it out of the first the Texans would be in a position to grab him at the top of the 2nd. Our other corner Antone Exum would be a great snag in one of those middle rounds though, talent wise he's just as good if not better from a pure athleticism position. Once he's 100% healed from a nasty knee injury he could be a very versatile player in some teams secondary.

John McClain is kind of stubborn and dumb at times, and his opinion poo poo generally rates from meh to terrible. But he does have sources within the organization so he is good for reporting actual news.

Quest For Glory II posted:Nothing sinks an organization like a quarterback drafted in the first round either!! Take Clowney It's an ultra tough decision. Might be the hardest choice for a team in the history of having a #1. Basically Houston is set at many positions and had an incredible down year due to the play of a single position. That turn around from a playoff team to a 2-14 team doesn't happen often, especially when that 2-14 team has the potential to be a playoff contender again with the right QB. All signs point to them needing to take one, but they also happen to have a generational prospect at a position that is historically extremely tough to get stability at. I wouldn't want to be in the Texans shoes right now.

When there's a prospect everyone else seems to value more than you might, you trade down. In this case it's not that Houston values Clowney less but that they'd like that QB they could take a few picks later.

Doltos posted:It's an ultra tough decision. Might be the hardest choice for a team in the history of having a #1. The big thing is that the team is still talented. Watt, Cushing, Swearinger, KJax and J-Jo are a good defensive core, and on offense we're getting Foster back (for better or worse), there's Andre and Nuk at receiver, and guys like Brown, Myers, and Brooks on the offensive line. The only QB worth taking at 1-1 is Teddy, and he's not good enough to pass up the possibility of Watt and Clowney on the same line.

I'm sure it is, and especially if Houston likes a particular QB prospect, which would mean they wouldn't feel confident trading down more than like 5 or 6 spots. It might be too tricky to pull off, but I wonder if Clowney's high expectations would help them get a good price for the No. 1

Hadn't really come up. In lucks year they could have gotten 4 first round picks from a team in the 20s. Last year they would have gotten a 5th from a top 5 team

Holy gently caress, that would cripple a franchise. 4 or 5 first round selections for a single player? Wow. I wonder if Atlanta trades up, they are in a great spot to trade up to 1 or 2 without it costing a fuckton. What would it cost to move up to 1 or 2 from 6? e: Looks like Atlanta would have to make up ~ 1400 points in value. Their second round pick is worth 520, so we are looking at a couple seconds and a third. I don't like it. weird Asian candy fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Apr 4, 2014 |

San Diego still picked 1st in 2004. It seems like that type of scenario would be best for Houston though. Draft Clowney and let the first team willing to draft the QB you want trade for him. Even if you miss out you still got a Clowney.

Does doing this (trading players as opposed to picks) make any difference on the value chart aspect of draft day trades? AAA DOLFAN, they moved from 12 to 4 for an additional 2nd rounder??? Who did they fleece?
