Garafalo on SNY said the Jets told Calvin Pryor that he isn't making it any further than 18, if they stay put. Those guarantees mean poo poo though so whatever.

Brandon Cooks keeps getting mocked to the Eagles at 22. Which is cool and all, but I just don't see that happening. He's basically DeSean Jackson v. 2.0, which is a good thing. But I just don't believe the Eagles are gonna get rid of DeSean and replace him with such a similar player. I'm thinking they just want a big reciever and DeSean is not the direction they are wanting to go. Amongst everything else with him.

BlindSite posted:Why so angry buddy? Because seriously, every team has been "considering" JFF at this point. JFF rumors should be ignored. The Giants signed Josh Freeman, have Curtis Painter and Ryan Nassib on the bench as well. Plus, Eli still has some years ahead of him, even if we don't know if they are good years or not, the franchise is behind him. Also Coughlin with JFF is loving lol. Also we have huge holes elseware that would be better addressed at 12. The Giants are not taking JFF.

Well I heard from a guy who works at the river mill that his buddy dan who works over at corn station said his sister was close to the GM that's gonna draft that their Johnny boy who just can sling that pigskin around that drat field..... -This must have been what the 50s sounded like. Oh wait.

shiksa posted:Bortles then Not much possibility but he'd probably fit better on the team than JFF would. Still no chance. The only QB I see the Giants possibly taking at 12 is Bridgewater if he's there and they lost their top picks at OL and whatnot. I just don't see the Giants going QB at all at 12. Too many other needs and we don't know if Eli is actually broken or not yet.

I realize he's ridden the Bench, but so did Aaron Rodgers for a while under Favre.

The biggest thing with Mallett is that in the few limited reps he's taken, mostly in preseason, he's looked like garbage. If he had showed anything at all at any time, his value would probably be higher. The Patriots shouldn't trade him for that, but I don't think it'd be smart to offer much more.

Valuable NFL pro experience like being kept stapled to the bench for the past 3 seasons even in blowouts because Belichick knows he sucks out loud?

pmchem posted:Well, if you actually read my post I didn't say that anywhere. My post was an expression of disbelief that someone would think a 6th for him was unreasonable. His value is nil. He has one year left until he's a free agent, so if he somehow pulls something out of his rear end this season you have to pay him a lot of money instead of having four or five years of cheap service time from a draft pick. There's also no reason to believe he'll be worth a crap because in what limited time he's played in mostly preseason he's shown next to nothing. The type of LB or TE you could get at the top of the 6th for special teams play is probably more valuable than anything he'd give a team Better?

If he played well, you'd actually probably get him at a reasonable deal. Might be a short one, but he likely wouldn't light the world on fire, so he wouldn't have much to stand on to get a big, long contract.

There's also no reason to believe he'll be worth a crap because in what limited time he's played in mostly preseason he's shown next to nothing. Yes, much better. If a team really thinks he might be good, getting him now and letting him ride the bench and re-signing him when he's a FA (and still has shown nothing in live games) would be savvy. But if he's actually good they'd need to play and pay him. So it becomes a complicated question: if you give a 6th for him now, you're paying a 6th and next year's contract. If you wait until he's a FA, you lose out on a possible contributor this season and have to get in whatever limited bidding war (possibly worth more than a 6th) for him next season. It's a non-trivial question and I can imagine a team paying a 6th just to find out. But there are good points on either side.

I've made my peace with the fact that I won't be satisfied with this draft no matter what. There simply aren't enough picks to take all of the players I like. The one thing that I ask, and I don't think this is too unreasonable, is that the Ravens not draft Taylor Lewan. After Rice dragging his bagged into the public light I can't really deal with rooting for another dude that lovely.

Intruder posted:In his career Mallett has accumulated negative passing yardage on 8 attempts and will be 26 years old this season. I'd definitely rather have whatever special team contributor you can find late in the draft Didn't people speculate that Hoyer would suck hard too? Mallett might be nothing but there is an argument to made for bringing him in for a 6th considering the fate of most 6th round picks it's not a massive investment.
