The thing is, the gm is making decisions off of what the scouts and coaches give him. They didn't fire those guys, so that information isn't going to change much after like, the combine / pro days, if even then, so...

OK, fair enough, but there's still decisions about positions of need and how they are prioritized, as well as general draft strategy. I would think other teams couldn't count on the ex-GM to have correct information about that stuff, and without it... well, you know which prospects the Redskins scouts liked I guess?

Also LOL if the skins didn't make everyone involved in their drafting sign NDAs that are enforceable regardless of employment status.

The nice thing about the Packers having four gigantic holes to fill is there'll be plenty of picks they can make I'll be happy about

Or they'll trade down out of the first because gently caress everything

Since the jersey was retired last year it's only fitting the Browns take Trubisky #1 so the process can start again.

Cross posting with Seattle thread:

Anyone interested in going to the Seahawks draft party at CLINK event center today? Doors open 4pm, draft starts 5pm. Seahawks pick #26 so like 3-4 hours later if they pick in the first round. I plan to get there with my kid around 400 for the random activities on site. Can get +2 more people. PM me.

Not for nothing but I dont trust any Jets source to know what a Pro Bowl level TE is.

quote:

Jets source tells Sal Paolantonio that Alabama TE O.J. Howard looks like "an immediate Pro Bowl level player." Howard, Jets coaches believe, can make an impact in the offense of new offensive coordinator John Morton, who came from the Saints, who featured former TE Jimmy Graham. Howard could be the pick at 6, Paolantonio reports.

They should have James Earl Jones announce the top 10 picks. As Vader.

Cool. When all the QB's are gone at #12 they can panic and trade for Jimmy.

No panic in analytics, it's a 4 year death march until they're the Bengals and riding Teddy Bridgewater to a yearly wild card loss for the next half decade.

I'm cool with McCaffrey.

But, I wasn't hot on the idea Mayock has of the Eagles drafting Mike Williams since we already have Alshon....

....but, Alshon Jeffrey & Mike Williams opposite of each other sounds like fun :getin:

Alshon is an inconsistent injury problem. This ain't Madden.

He won't stop you from drafting Mike Williams if you think he's a true #1 worthy of a 1st

I am legit concerned that Mahomes and Kizer will both go before the Texans pick and they'll panic and take Webb or something

Of course, Matthew Fairburn works the Bills beat, so the person that told him that probably works for the Bills and is trying to drum up interest in their pick at 10.

Would actually really love the Chiefs trading up for Mahomes, both because funslinging, and because then I can turn off the TV and go to bed at a normal hour.

Mahomes could just chuck the ball as far as possible and watch Tyreek run under it

Well Mahomes won't be there, but the Browns traded the 12 for the 13th pick for a 6th rounder when the Ravens took Ngata so this should cost a conditional 7th at most, but LOL Browns, they also traded a 2nd to move up one spot to take Winslow Jr.

The seahawks have even used their original 1st round draft pick in the PC/JS era, they believe in the whole draft as many people as possible, they only have 7 picks which is like the fewest in the PC/JS era, complete bullshit they will trade up.

if they do any trades they will trade back
