And that makes me wonder how smart GMs are about other GMs on draft day. Let me explain with a military analogy. Army intelligence guys & gals are not spies - not James Bond types like you see in the movies. Their expertise is the enemy. For example, if we're thinking about invading a foreign country, the intel guys will tell us how they'll fight and what they'll fight with. They know about force strength, weaponry, tactics, logistics, and so on. We'll even sit down and do wargames on a big map board reviewing different scenarios and decision trees. While most of the officers involved in an exercise like this will play our side, the intel guys will play the enemy. I wonder if NFL GMs do something like this. How much do they wargame the draft? How much do the study their enemy (the other 31 GMs) in order to anticipate their moves? If Nix had understood the Seahawks a little better, he could have gone for Wilson in the 3rd. NFL teams ought to have intel guys on staff who are experts on our enemies. My original title actually mimicked the title of the article I was referencing. But I changed it - just for you - to make it a bit clearer. As a former military intelligence analyst, (26 years) I get what you are saying. I have also wondered the same. I believe that they attempt to predict others needs vs. Bpa. But don't much beyond that and pattern or trend analysis. It certainly would be interesting to observe those pre draft meetings.

I appreciate the article, but this has been discussed here for 7 years. I do appreciate the article. The “we didn’t take Mahomes is a big so what. Mahomes is great, really great, but then we don’t have arguable the best CB in football and Allen is turning into a franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
