Want: Michel (or Iko Smith) Think: Ivory

I fully expect him to become a Patriot*.

I think this becomes more of a debate if the scenario is that the player is a guaranteed HOFer. In that case, if there was a QB already in place, I would be tempted to say yes. You never know how a late 1st round pick is going to pan out. Sure, one of the two might be a good starter, but a HOFer is a game changer at his position. I'd probably do it for almost any position, especially WR, LT, DT, DE, MLB, and CB, so long as they are a HOFer for insane production.

Mayfield. That short, good-for-nothing ego-maniac is going to have a lot of success as an NFL QB. Edit: Not to mention, he's a rabble-rouser.

Yeah, so apparently practicing yoga spaces your fingers further apart from each other. Could be a key way for QBs to increase hand size leading up to the Combine. Actually, just found this poking around: http://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/sports/saints/article_7628f4ee-7b0a-5824-9299-4d2a3b1a31b0.html The secret? Hand yoga. ... “It stretches them and stuff,” Thomas said. “It’s a little secret I do. I know the exercises and then, when I get massages, I get the knuckles massaged out.” The scary part is that Thomas doesn’t think there is a limit to how much he can stretch his hands. He was measured again by ESPN after the combine, and his hands had grown a quarter-inch. ... “They just keep increasing. I do it all the time,” he said. “We’ll see.”

See: Roscoe Parrish

I think he might already be a 2nd round guy. Would not be at all surprised to see Ridley, Sutton, and maybe Kirk go round one, and Brown, with a few others go in round two.

Stop it with your facts.

1. Mayfield 2. Rosen 3. Jackson 4. Darnold 5. Rudolph Honorable mention: Falk

Really would hate to see him wear any other team's uniform. I would understand in that he might want to put himself in the best place to make a run at a championship now that the Buffalo playoff monkey is off the back, but it would still sting.

Re: hand size, I have heard that yoga can stretch your fingers out wider. How is it measured?

Fair point, but (1) going for it on 4th down and WR types are two different choices, and (2) an effective analytics department should be continually re-working their numbers to combat the NFL defenses' adjustments.

Could probably get doen without dealing next year's 1st round pick, especially if Glenn is part of the package. And, yes, yes I do.

Yeah, almost as popular as Pro Bowl Helvetica.

I fall in the crowd who wants us to package #21 and #22 to move up, BUT I really really hope a couple nice front 7 prospects are there at #53 and #56. Green the DT/DE from USC and Nnadi the DT from Florida State come to mind.

Saw the Holy Grail at North Park Theater last night. Awesome to see it on the big screen.

I think the following would be accurate: inconsistent, opportunistic, and back-heavy (secondary way better than front 7) (given the poor state of our offense, "tired" might be applicable, too)

This franchise needs to start spending draft capital on HBs. McCoy Guice (#21) Michel (#53) Murphy Boom.

For all those who feel signing Ivory prevents drafting a HB... why?

Agree with the notion that DBs will just take down WRs who have a step. If this rule is implemented, then I cannot wait to see the reaction of the first fanbase that is the victim of their WR about to haul in an 80 yard TD only to get 1st and 10 on their own 35 yard line. That's generous of you. I do not trust they have a full human brain between them all.

Totally on board for bringing in Ivory, retaining Cadet (injury-permitting), and drafting a guy in rounds 4 or 5, like J. Adams (ND) or I. Smith (Miss St).

I bet one of the McCray holds onto a spot.

You certainly won't find me championing NFL officials for their capability.

If the price is right, why not? Would surely be kicking ourselves for not at least seeing what he's asking for if Poyer or Hyde go down next season for any significant amount of time.
