Royals over Thornton for me, and Caldwell would be a major reach at 72 imho, while West would be a minor reach.

or not lol (DB to GB)

just wait like 20 seconds maybe?

I would argue that some people are too rigid in their terms of debate and try to score arbitrary points rather than discuss matters more holistically in a less binary way. But that's just me.

Why are you isolating the 2nds only? That's so arbitrary.

Sanders was very likely the 49ers pick (as Gunner pointed out). And Collins was next pick at DT, so he would likely have been gone by 56 as well. Beane wanted a DT, and got a good one. And only moved back from 62 to 71 (plus lost a nice early 4th rounder, but trades have costs).

Here come the draft value experts on cue. Sanders is a disruptor who can line up at 1T a little bit less run-heavy downs, but can really rotate in with Oliver as well.

That's who I mocked last night at 56. Guy can play. Let's go.

got a 2nd, 3rd, and 7th for both 2nds and a 4th

Waaaaaat....

Sanders was also my pick 56 when I mocked off last night's results

built off last night's results and came away with this total draft (don't hate it at all):

If only everyone could boot and rally like you did tonight, we'd be a more resilient bunch.

Norman-Lott in particular looks really intriguing on this Pass Rush x Run Stop graph:

I hear ya, but if he was their GUY (who still had a 1st round grade), then why risk it? Or maybe there wasn't much value being presented over the phone. Or both.

Is Philly's pick just piling on with their embarrassment of riches on the defensive side? Seems insane what they have on that side of the ball.

You never declared irony. Nor did you declare some kind of 175-year family journey over unthinkable traumas to this incredible moment where he will likely earn generational wealth while presumably pursuing his life's dream, if properly managed. Maybe your post was just poorly/ambiguously conveyed, but do better.

Doesn't matter your intention or tone with this. Totally fraught clickbait nonsense, at best.

Hell yeah

Hairston is a difference maker in off coverage. Dangerous guy on the boundary.

MVP

I guess if the player hits, it doesn't really matter when he's drafted (I get how YoY asset allocation and all that works, mind you). If Gibbs and Campbell both continue to develop, then the criticisms of those "reaches" becomes somewhat moot. Performance is so much more important than perception.

Ravens investing heavily in their defensive 2nd and 3rd levels lately. Are they mostly platooning big, physical guys on the DL who contain and collapse rather than disrupt? Get the pass rush from scheme more than front end talent? Also, when you have such talented DBs and LBs, you can really dial up the exotic looks, disguises, and man-pressure packages. Interesting approach.

Gotta say, Dart has a punchable look

You are not alone in that.
