yeah I mean they obviously drafted Gibbs with the intent of shipping off Swift, which they did, and Campbell was best in class at MLB but both were way too high value-wise. But we shall see! If they both turn out well no one will care where they were drafted in a couple of years.

Amazing that people who post here daily and play like they know everything don’t know that. but hey, anyone that shows their a** like that in embarrassing fashion is always entertaining Thank YOU by the way, Gunner, for always great prospect and draft analysis year after year!

says the guy who obviously doesn’t know what the term means…

what awfully simplistic analysis! Great job.

Whatever man. i feel like you have a hard time understanding a lot of things. Trust that Beane knows more than you. Calm down and wait and see.

Is this a serious question? Yes professional football teams with professional scouting departments can predict relative strength of draft classes. If the potential talent pool for 2024 looks better than 2023 then yeah one could conclude there might be better talent in the 6th rd next year than this year. Also this.

Light draft, smart move.

yeah. He’s almost trapping that thing on those twitter highlights. Whatever coach him up I guess he’s a late 5th round pick. If he can figure out catch mechanics he could be very good

To the suggested 40 time - I had very little confidence in the 4.7-4.9 range I posted. That was just a best guess averaging out unofficial times I poked around and found online. So I absolutely don’t doubt you that he may be significantly faster. He certainly looks fast on tape. 👍👍

even better!

I think he’s right at 6’4”, possibly a hair under. Very unofficially he’s somewhere in the 4.7-4.9sec 40 range.

yes really - and I am not saying I agree with it but I am just trying to read the tea leaves - I do not think they use a day 2 pick on a tweener guy that would only play in sub packages. I think they knew they’d most likely lose a starting LB and really liked the guy. I’m not sure they’re right, I’m just saying I would not be surprised if they don’t pick a possible MLB replacement on day 2. They may try to dig up a diamond on Saturday.

That’s fair - and if all those concerns continue to play out, 1) that’s not on Beane or the DK pick, and 2) Dorsey will be looking for a new job. I am willing to give Dorsey some rope for some of those deficiencies last year as it was his first year in that job. Nothing really left to do but wait and see though.

I get those wants and needs absolutely. One of things you need to realize at mlb though is: they haven’t given up on Bernard, even if a lot of us have forgotten about him since he didn’t play. They have their bets on him hedged with bringing back dodson and klein but I think they think Bernard has a real chance to develop into something. They will absolutely give him a chance and I wouldn’t expect an early rd (day 2) pick for LB. More offensive line help? Absolutely throw it on me. They can take 3 OLs in a row if the value’s there go ahead.

This one was especially amusing and gratifying.

they had a high grade on DK. Possibly the last 1st rd grade that was still available, since Beane hinted they only had 1st rd grades on 18-20 players this year. Literally all the draft chatter and speculation was Dallas was on TEs since they just lost theirs. DK was pretty much the consensus top TE. Are you putting the math together yet? I’m sure Beane would love to play fantasy against you too - he would destroy you.

Like who?

So a million and one other people, all more relevant and visible than you liked Breece Hall last year too as the top RB but you’re gonna go ahead and claim that as a dub huh? Again, peak delusion.

well clearly someone cares very deeply that you and I and everyone knows he was right (so far) about a couple of guys and he’s definitely right again and Beane was wrong, again.

cool tag me in that so I’ll see it.

yeah because that’s relevant. And how many ND washouts have their been in recent years? Couldn’t tell you because I lost count.

he has only one - he’s always right.

He knows more than the GM of a professional football team that makes the playoffs every year everyone. We’ve reached peak delusion with this one.

you throw 100 darts at a board and crow about the 3 that hit the bull. You ain’t nobody despite this warped perception you have of yourself and you’re not fooling anyone.

Oh the draft genius is here! And he’s disappointed. And a ND fan. Not surprised
