I have a curious question, do you do a full 7 rounder still like in the old days when it was Saturday and Sunday only? Or do you do one round then tomorrow reassess and do 2-3 than 4-7? I loved doing the old school 7 rounders but it doesn’t make any sense to do now? If you did do it , what is the latest pick you’ve nailed? I got Anthony Hill TE NC State correct at 122 to the Texans. I feel like I got one 3-4 years ago in the 150 range but can’t remember who

Yes we did bring in Mazi Smith. I’m being frank I’m not advocating for Smith at all like I was advocating for Kincaid. Smith just strikes me as a Bills pick at a Bills need. I want exciting like everyone else. I would love to get Kincaid or Robinson just don’t think it’s realistic. I believe the WRs are going to be drafted a lot lower than this board and media thinks as evidenced by 1 going in the 1st round. If the Bills don’t go DL I think they will go boring on the other side with a Bergeron or a Tippmann preferably after a trade down

I believe so. Smith visited and had no lengthy injury history like Bresee which could play a factor

Haha I wish it was more exciting too but I’m expecting boring

McDonald would be a great pick at # 27. He is a quick twitch get after the QB DE definitely not in the mold of Epenesa or Basham. He's going to go around the range the Bills pick, possibly even before it.

The obvious ones are the Raiders and the Titans because of their need for a QB and the non guarantee that any of the top 4 fall to them or they don't think they are worth the 7th and 11th picks and want to wait until later. Arizona for the Hopkins deal makes sense but its hard to pinpoint exactly cause who knows what grades certain teams have on certain players.

MLBs are a devalued position in 2023 and aren’t needed to be superior like they were in the 70s-90s. You need to be able to cover and rush the passer on defense. Name me 15 MLBs currently in the NFL without looking it up and the team they play on. I don’t think I can tbh.

Yea I’ve seen that as well. It does make sense for exactly what you said. The OL really thins out at tackle after the initial group. I still think they try to trade down to select him at like 7 say the Raiders want up

He’s not a first round pick or even a high second rounder. I get it need, Kuechly, size etc but at 59 sure I can go for it

I enjoy your stuff as well if not anything for comparison. I will admit that due to looking at this and having previous discussions lol you have a serious Clemson bias haha

I think a real dark horse , if the Bills go the OL route in round 1 is Joe Tippmann from Wisconsin. Beane has always valued the Center position in Carolina and when he came to Buffalo he signed Morse. If you want to get bigger and stronger on the offensive line the one obvious area is Center and since Morse is out after this year Tippmann would make a lot of sense. Benches and squats a ton, would be in the top 5% in size amongst NFL Centers and hits the Bills midwestern blue collar type. No he’s not 21 but he did just turn 22 like last month so he’s very close. I also have stated before that if you look at history, Centers tend to rise as the draft gets closer

Can't say I'm surprised on the Kincaid thing. To me he is the clear # 1 TE in this draft. I don't believe he makes it to either the Cowboys or Bills but man i'd love to get my hands on the guy. QB's always rise so the Hooker thing doesn't surprise me. He also has supposedly been a fan favorite of teams in interviews with his ability to process and how he answers leadership questions.

While I don't disagree lets not act like Deion is gonna pull 5 5 Stars and 15 4 stars like the big dogs do. He has 4 commitments right now 3 Stars and a 4 Star DT Omar White who has been charged with 3 felonies. He's going to get some transfers he's gonna recruit some 4 and 3 stars like the rest of the non power Power 5 schools and have to build his way up like everyone else.

Def a raw player and yes better in a 3-4. Just think with those options that were presented he was the best option. He's the only guy that wasn't the trade down scenario or Hopkins scenario that I have a first round grade on. I'm not overly as high on Van Ness as a lot of people. I think he will struggle to get to the passer in the NFL.

DE in our system

If these are the options? I'm not including the Hopkins deal or a trade back cause those can be used as cop outs but the easy decision at 27 is Nolan Smith. Its not even close due to upside alone.

Yes that’s what I see happening . I have Schoonmaker as a 3rd rounder so it makes more sense I guess with my ranking than yours

I don’t have any insight tbh but TEs in this game as we know have become vital. Once those top 6 come off there is a drop after 7 so I think someone reaches on schoomaker to make sure they get one of the top 7 compared to whoever they have at 8

All top 7 TEs are gone by the end of round 2. Mayer, Kincaid, Musgrave, Washington, LaPorta, Kraft, Schoonmaker.

it’s only a hot take on this board. I think both you and I know that with the exception of maybe Simpson that those guys never were being picked in round 1

I’ve been calling the Skoronski guard talk for awhile. He’s going to struggle at Tackle. Teams will start him there and be forced to kick him inside. If your looking for a tackle Darnell Wright us a better option

This team sure does love it some RB's

I just happen to think whoever wins the division is probably going to go 11-6. Its a hard road for the AFC East this year in general.

Idk about clone but if your looking for that type of guy who will be possibly available at 27 your looking at Will McDonald IV out of Iowa State
