On the one hand I should be mad that the Browns would trade down to get Carr. On the other hand...Browns.

It was probably a bit more truthful prior to the new rookie salary cap since the top picks would be negotiating contracts prior to the draft so it was a bit obvious most years how the top would shake out. Though Luck was also pretty set in stone which means probably only like a quarter of draft articles were about how they wouldn't take him.

So in actual draft news Miami won't be draft ioujabunhggh whatever the right tackle is named. His medical stuff received a failing grade. That's literally the only hard info I got this year. I just haven't had time or desire to dive into it. Oh and Miami will like pick Lee if their top three prospects are gone. They are a TE a tackle and a tackle. I think it's gonna be shazer but who knows

You think they'd take Shazer over Mosely if both were still available?

The Puppy Bowl posted:You think they'd take Shazer over Mosely if both were still available? Everything seems to point to them trading down in certain scenarios. Croyle has demonstrated a serious love affair with athletic linebackers which is shazer. But I think that's a trade down pick. Boomer on FH has great connections and the rumor is Miami is looking at "playmakers" in the first two days

RE: Stanley Jean-Baptiste: I'll be happy as hell for him if he goes tonight, but I saw nothing from him during his time at Nebraska that justifies him as a first-round pick. But the Richard Sherman comparisons are being drawn and, well... Does Weeden qualify as a bust

That makes sense. I definitely want the Ravens to trade down barring some pretty amazing falls but it seems like everyone in our range wants out so it wouldn't surprise me if only one of Dallas, Baltimore, New York, and Miami are able to get out of there.

I wonder how leaking out fake scoops to beat reporters even works. Like, here's a tweet from Joe Buscaglia, who is normally a very reliable beat reporter:quote:Sources: Beckham, Jr. in serious consideration for Bills at 9 If we know that everything said the past few months is bullshit, surely he does, too. So, what, he gets a call from someone in the Bills' FO, who says something like "Hi Joe. Oooh, I shouldn't tell you this, keep my identity secret, but that Odell kid? We're thinking about taking him at 9!" Then, while probably having an inkling that he's getting played, he dutifully reports it? Is it just about page views? Or is there some sort of unspoken agreement that beat reporters just play along with this poo poo in exchange for their access during the regular season?

Jason La Canfora is tipping picks again, so you should probably unfollow him if you care about that sort of thing. The ESPN and NFLN guys are staying silent. I don't know about Jay Glazer yet.

The idea of the Panthers trading out of the first round seems to be picking up steam, which I would be fine with. Getting more picks could allow us to more easily double-dip at WR/OT/DB, and it's doubtful any of the guys we're in love with would still be around at 28 anyway.

If Dallas really wants JFF, ship Romo to like Cleveland or Jacksonville and let him bring those glorious franchises to the promised land. Also many picks because that contract tells us how much he's truly worth. Then Jerry Jones can complete his transformation into the new Al Davis. It would also have the awesome bonus of Dallas fans who have hated Romo forever getting to watch him get murdered with those awful teams. They'd eat that poo poo up.

I have two immensely irritating coworkers who love to be the first to "break" news at all times, so draft night is pretty unbearable because of them. Every TV in the building is tuned to the draft; just loving chill and stop "scooping" ESPN via your Twitter feed when we're all (mostly) trying to get work done and will hear the name called in 30 seconds anyway. I'm not fond of online spoilers either, but at least those are more easily avoided.
