Haven't watched OSU this yr. May have to get some things done outside today to get ready for winter but recording it.

Tenn has a good RT as well - Darnell Wright. Did really well vs bama

HR may be inquiring about both. Wilson's been in the rumor mill for a while now, Jones wanting out just happened. I don't want Kamara and his injuries, nor Hunt even tho we looked at him in the OS.

B/u S still of more importance imo. That's an easy roster move as we just dump Wallace, doubt we could get anything for him and in his 3rd yr we've seen enough, wouldn't even PS him.

RB different story, tougher to make a roster move.

Not real good with D, but what about Terrance Brooks? He is a FA

Thought he sounded familiar, was w/ us in 2016. He may actually be a downgrade from Wallace. Been looking around and unless HR is willing to pull off something wild, McLeod seems like a good option for this yr.

Right...  forced at WR.  Unless you think there weren't other players between the level of JJ and Reagor?    They forced WR without a doubt....taking the wrong guy was the second part of the decision.  I don't think Smith was forced, I think they just liked him best at that spot.  I don't think Davis was forced, they just liked him...same with Dickerson and the C they took this year. 

Now I'm not saying that selecting JJ wouldn't have been worth forcing WR... I'm just saying it's obvious the main part of Reagor being the choice was his position....I really can't believe that they thought Reagor was better than all the other players at every other position too?  Do you?  

Anyone remember the 1982 draft? The Eagles desperately were in need of an upgrade at WR. We were in love with Perry Tuttle of Clemson. We had the 20th pick and he was on the board at #19. Buffalo pulled-off a trade and took him. We SETTLED for the next highest rated WR...Mike Quick...ever hear of him?

Hey Crazy legs, been meaning to reach out to you for a while - welcome to the board!

True,the feeling is we will pick at 4 or 5. That has been consistent so far. Unless the Saints go on a tear. They are getting players off injury finally,so we shall see. With QB needy teams being many,sitting at 4/5 is a prime place to rape another team that needs that 4 pick. Howie is good at milking the most of of them. We can trade back 1,2,3 spots,get our guy and something else too That game was awesome. Admittedly not a baseball fan but I watch the playoffs in about any sport. That was the 2nd largest comeback in the WS I believe? I caught some graphic of something like that.

I'm certainly not against maximizing our draft results via shrewd bargaining. I just caution against us thinking we are smarter than everyone else.

P.S. the year was 1956. The team was the Brooklyn Dodgers.

Desperate teams do desperate things, esp when it comes to QB. HR would definitely make another team bend over as he's done in the past - and rightfully so.  

Wow, Brown just demolished that OSU guy

Last 2 drafts have been terrific. So maybe we are smarter. Howie used to try to outsmart himself, but he's been doing much better. I hope that continues. We're sitting in a prime position to demand whatever we want for teams trying to move up for a QB and still get the guy we want. Both edge rushers would be the BPA in 4,5,6 maybe 7. I wouldn't move back too far if that's the guy we want. Either top 2 edge guys work for me if they continue to play as they have. I will be watching Dewand Jones at RT for OSU,he is on now so off I go

OSU definitely missing  Njingba.they are loading up the box

Penn shooting themselves in the foot

Marvin Harrison,jr stepping up to the plate

Just came back in. What a bad start for Clifford but great PSU D! 

WTF! 4th & 2 in FG range for the 2nd time and PSU goes for it? This is a game where you take the f'n pts! 

OSU is so flat. RE:Jones- removing him for now. Nothing is screaming "I gotta have this guy". Maybe just a bad game for him,but he is not impressing me at all at RT. It's so bad they are running to the left side(LOL). That tells me all I need to know

OSU has the pass rusher, forgot his name already as needless to say the game turned into background noise while doing other stuff. PSU letting the mid field wide open the entire game, kicker sucks, QB play sucked, some decent D esp vs the run. At least the Phils won and we should win tomorrow.

In addition to Chris Boswell, the Steelers also ruled out cornerback Josh Jackson (groin) on Saturday. That means at least three Pittsburgh defenders won’t play on Sunday, as cornerback Levi Wallace and defensive lineman Larry Ogunjobi (knee) were both ruled out on Friday.

Dicker the kicker gone, Tarron Jackson signed to PS;

You know game 2 is tonight right?

I've watched Dawand Jones, RT, OSU this season and do not see a player that lives up to our standards, IMHO. Likewise, he has been dropping in the scouting reports.

My amateur opinion is that he just takes up a lot of space - no downfield hustle or attitude. 

The player you should be watching is at LT - Paris Johnson - a surefire 1st round pick.

Name: Zach Harrison...highly recruited underachiever. He did get an INT off of a deflection today. Commentators claim that he has shown some improvement lately.

Well it was fun with Dicker the kicker... hopefully some day we can have Hunter the punter.

We don't need a LT, why should I be watching him? If we took him at 4,5 that would be a serious REACH and he won't last until pick 30,31,so there is no point watching a player we cannot get and besides he is a LT,so you going to boot Mailiata? Or would you sit a round 1 pick(because you'd need to select him first) while we wait for Mailatas contract to expire? So, realistically there is no reason for me to watch him unless you think he could make the move to RT, but they are differing positions and I doubt as a round 1 LT he would be happy with being a RT.
