Bold prediction: Tua falls out of the top 10

Miami holds all the keys to this draft how they draft could change everything except if they take Herbert...he is a massive reach and affects no one. But if they go Andrew Thomas the tackle...then Trent's value will sky rocket cause it could bring the Browns and Jets interest back in.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

My bold prediction for today is that the Browns trade pick #97 and TE David Njoku to the Redskins for OT Trent Williams before the start of the draft.

Herbert will also fall out of the top 10

Possible but I don't think Mia or LAC pass on him if he's there

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

That'a a well thought out Top 12, Chico. I like this thread.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

I think Miami trades up for Tua too. After wasting last year they are gonna want some star power to excite the fans again and Tua will do it.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

Anyone know how the draft will run on TV. Channel(s), format, etc

We won't be staring at Goodell for 3 hours will we?

PS This may be the highest sporting event ratings ever. How many people have been chomping at the bit for something/anything live sports related!?!

I believe there's a good chance of that as well. I for one, am starving for something that is current-sports related...

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

Herbert will go before Tua (who might get the Aaron Rodgers treatment)

I didn't look deep but I don't think anyone outside NFL will know what the format/set up will look like. It will be aired on ESPN, NFL Network and ABC channels.

If so I feel bad for that team.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

Paul Alexander is a former OL Coach for the Bengals and now works at PFF so I asked him about CY he said "It's very hard to predict how good a DE will be at the next level but he could be the next Lawrence Taylor and I don't say that about everyone"

About god damn time!

I take that, still alot of concern about that guy (injuries)

something will happen today, and i cant wait to see what it is

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

This draft will be a success to me IF:
- TW is off the team, and we have a reasonable option for his successor
- CY is on the team OR we are feeling like the fox who got all the eggs in the henhouse
- There are no rumors, conspiracy theories, or naysayers yelling about Dan Snyder forcing draft issues.

I will hate it (or be ever so unhappy) if
- TW is still on the team pouting around
- we take a qb in the first 3 rounds
- we take players who fell because of injury concerns

I'd be shocked if they took a QB in this draft

Kay Adams is so fine

They already used their 5th on backup Kyle Allen, no way they carry 3.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

I suspect they will go with two QBs, and Logan Thomas as the 'emergency' third.

Get the 3rd pick without giving up the 5th pick? Besides it being an insulting offer, The Detroit GM [U]couldn't[/U] make that trade because he would be tarred, feathered and rode out of town on a rail if he did.

I'm just hoping we make it out of the draft with no injuries.

Well if they include their 1st round pick the next 2 seasons, he might not be, but it would be a tough sell. Ideally that would give Detroit ammunition both of the next two drafts to get Stafford's replacement.

If they did, there’s a local kid that went to the high school across the street from my house. Anthony Gordon from Washington State, played under Mike Leach, backed up Gardner Minshew and started after Minshew left. Kid is a winner everywhere he’s played and had pretty good senior bowl. I would get him in the lower rounds.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

Did a bunch of his tape this past season, I'm a fan of his. But I want Haskins to have a legit shot.

I would think that Miami and the rest of the NFL would learn from the Ryan Tannehill at Titans situation that a good team and a strong running game is as important or more important than desperately reaching for a QB that you think will solve all of your problems. This is still a team sport. There are several good QB's in this draft and Miami would be better off keeping all of their draft picks and getting as much talented as they can get. Miami has too many holes.
Plus Tua will still be there at#5.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

I have a feeling that a team is going to make us a monster offer to move up to 2... and that we will still reject it.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

Just remember, 50% of the players drafted in the 1st round turn out to be busts.

Chase won't be a bust.

There comes a point when the value of the offer is so great that RR would need to be incompetent to reject it - and I don't think he's incompetent.

SF, what is your input on my two west coast guys I like USC WR Michael Pittman Jr and UCLA TE Asiasi?

U know I usually laugh at any prospects past the Rocky Mountains

Solid players, Pittman's dad was a pretty good RB for the Bucs.

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread
 

I was just reading the NFL will play some of its first games without fans in the stadium.


They called the Redskins to get some advise.
