Oh I know the chart, but if you look at the numbers, it's not correct. The 41st pick is worth 11 points, according to this guys chart. The Bills gave up 49(9.8), 107(4.8) and next years 2017 4th. The Jimmy Johnson chart says to value that 2017 pick at what the value of the 2016 pick was... which is odd to begin with anyways. This chart gives no such indication of what to do. Bill conveniently picks Chase Stuarts chart and ignores the Jimmy Johnson one, to make his point. And on what planet would those picks equate to the 13th overall pick? Using his chart the Bills could have easily moved up to the #4 spot by just giving up their 1st and 2nd this year. From 19 to 4 for a 2nd(49)... Sorry but that chart is pretty flawed.

I'm not quite sure I understand it, two 4th round picks and swapping seconds equates to using the 13th overall pick on Ragland? That can't be right. I have no idea what he's done to come to that conclusion unless he added up all the point values of the trade?

Did I say that? Nope. It's called context. EDIT: I'm sorry Bill but with comments like this and your position on CBs well documented, this has become just laughable.

Ah yes, another person who doesn't watch enough or any of these other "shutdown" corners. Norman has 7 career INTs. Gilmore has 9. Guess Norman doesn't the ability to "pull down the INT's". Josh Norman had 5 defensive holding penalties in 2015, which are the same as PI's, the ball just happens to not be in the air yet. Gilmore had 6. Let's look at some more "shutdown" corners. Richard Sherman had 7 defensive holding/pass interference penalties in 2015. Patrick Peterson had 8 defensive holding/pass interference penalties in 2015. Darelle Revis only had 3 last year but he did have 6 in 2014. Vontae Davis had 8 defensive holding/pass interference penalties in 2015.

Like I said in the other thread, I think it's Marvels best film yet. And the speed and flow of the film is amazing.

I don't think the players vote on all 100, as I recall. I believe the players only vote on the top-25 or something, can't remember specifically but they are given 25 and told to rank them. I think NFLN picks the other 75. ahh found it: So basically players are asked to rank their top 20 players, out of thin air. I would guess then that the other 80 players are based on being occasionally picked as a top 20 player and getting points. They then probably can just rank them based on points, I'm guessing? Although, they don't get a big turn out of players voting and they also ask players to do this in the middle of the season, instead of after its over.

Yea, picks up a couple months after the whole Ultron incident. It's almost like a continuation of that movie and it doesn't feel like just a Captain America movie. Lots of really good new actors as well. Tom Holland is very very good as Peter Parker/Spider-Man.

Btw, got to see a screening of Cap vs. Iron Man... it's probably Marvels best movie yet. They do a brilliant job of adding a ton of emotion to the series.

It's funny that Pitt went CB anyways after Jackson was taken right in front of them. Burns is really raw... Seemed like a reach/need to me.

The Bills also have Z. Brown, one of the fastest LBs in the league.

Haha.

Seconded on Charone Peake. He'd be a good pick up and a nice compliment to Sammy.

Would the Bills honestly let this slip out so that every other team could know? National insiders get "used" so much this time of year. Whaley said they had been trying to trade up for Ragland starting last night, no one had that, I don't think.

I hear they like late round draft picks... Trying to beat that 1997 Dolphins record.

It's a tough one, especially with the optional 5th year you get with drafting a guy in the 1st. Draft Jack and possibly not get to use that 5th year option OR draft a guy you would prefer to have for 5 years and take Jack in the 2nd on 4 year deal.

That's assuming the Bills would have gotten another 2nd. All the trades that happened after Cleveland didn't net a 2nd this year. Denvers jump to 26th netted Seattle a 3rd round pick. Maybe no team was offering a 2nd.

I agree with this, except I really don't think Kyle is going to play NT. I think they'll draft a true NT, like Reader. If the Bills go base 3-4, I don't think Kyle will find a spot on the field, if the Bills draft a true NT. If the Bills go Nickel in a 4-3 under with some different concepts, I could see Kyle playing the 3-tech and Hughes playing the 9-tech next to Kyle. Dareus at the 0T/1T, Lawson(Shaq) playing the 5-tech then Manny playing the SLB. Or if you wanted to go pressure package, you stand up Lawson(Shaq), move Dareus to the 5-tech bring in the NT you draft and keep everyone the same. Lots of options in sub-packages for Kyle but unfortunately if it's base 3-4 I don't see a spot for him. Which isn't a horrible thing because most defenses are in sub-packages something like 63% of the time.

He's had it since his freshman year. He didn't even know about it, it hasn't bothered him. It's not an issue.

I had Lawson and Dodd rated very close together and personally preferred Dodd, for a couple reasons. That said they both are excellent EDGE guys and I can't believe he was there at 19. Crazy 1st round.

Great pick up for the Dolphins. It's gotta be Tannenbaum doing a favour for Sexton.

Wow, who did he piss off?

"Does he know how to run routes? No." #Moneyball

It's the how long you'll get him for. It's presumed you'll only get one contract out of him. If you were picking high first round you'd hope you could get multiple contracts from your pick.
