    You're right that they don't need "extra guys."

     

    What you get in the second and third round are not extra guys. Was Matt Milano an "extra guy" from the fifth round?

     

    Not quoting me but I’ll answer. No, he wasn’t. But you’re not winning a Super Bowl with 11 Matt Milano’s on the defence. You need All-Pro talent and odds are much greater that you’ll take them in the first round compared to the others.

  2. I’m excited, we have a ton of draft picks which means we’ll be in the market to wheel and deal. Whether that means up the board or down. There’s a lot of really good players to be had in the first three rounds and this will probably be one of the few years where I stick around past the second.

    Pete Prisco saying Cards not taking Murray #1. Not sure what can believed at this time of year and if Cardinals are trying to generate interest for someone to trade up.

    The Cardinals not drafting Murray is fascinating because that blows the entire draft wide open and really changes everything. Do the Raiders take him? Do the Giants? How many teams have other QBs ahead of him which means he could tumble down the board if teams like Lock or Haskins more.

  4. You need a guy that loves the game, the number one reason is that the kid got paid and he's had enough. If they manage it right they're set for life. You need a guy that loves waking up at 5am, hitting the gym and spending a good part of the day watching film on their tablet. If you can find a guy who has that hunger to get better every snap you're already halfway there.

     

    Drafting based on measurables is the other downfall(Maybin comes to mind, bulked up for the combine when everyone knew he couldn't keep the weight on) I still to this day will never understand how a guy running a 40 in his underwear propels him up draft boards. Put on the tape, if he looks the part, and has the build, take him.

    Right on! I'd honestly be happy with almost any position on offense over any defensive pick at this point. 

    Having a stud TE could change the entire dynamic of this offense, and be the biggest help to Allen's development. Aside from having Brady, the Pats have shown just how much a great TE can dominate the game.  

    But even if we were to grab an O-linemen or WR, I'd still take improving the #30th ranked offense over trying to bolster the #2 ranked defense any day. Especially when this year could make or break Allen, and after what we've invested in him already, we NEED him to succeed. This team and this regime's future depends on Allen not being a flop, so they should be doing everything possible to help him specifically.

     

    There's no WR worth taking in the Top 10 to ever justify that selection. If Metcalf had production in college, could run the whole route tree and didn't have drop issues you could make an argument there, but he's red flag city right now so you can't. The risk is too great with the abundance of pass rushers that will be on the board.

     

     If you're going to take a pass catcher you take one of the two TE's from Iowa. Offensive line is deep, so taking either Taylor or Dillard at Nine wouldn't be a problem either.

    The Bills already have two, three down backers. In a league where having more than two LBers on the field is getting more rare by the year, that would be an awful pick.

     

    Just my opinion.

     

    Do you want an solid starter or a chance at a gold jacket? Because you're going to get a potential gold jacket with Devin White. And when you're picking in the Top 10 that's the kind of players you need to get. At least in my opinion.
