CliffsNotes Version: That even 1st/2nd round picks are basically 50% lottery picks.

Thanks.  Nothing new there.

Yeah.  Vegas is turning out to be quite the NFL city.  

I saw that coming.  How did they not?

Im always surprised by his speed. Looks like TO. Long striding outrunning everyone.

He’s ready for this offense, as the finer points of route running won’t matter in the short term. If they drafted him 4-5 years is a long long time to get better and hopefully we can get a guy to sling it.

Something about Vegas makes football players think they can do whatever they want. I don’t think this is happening with the hockey team. 

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas".  It's almost like the city marketed itself as a place to be extremely stupid and have no consequences.

Howie and I addressed the trenches in this one early and often.

I doubt Kamara gets prison time though. The police came out today and said he was a suspect and they located him at the stadium at 10AM but still let him play the pro bowl and then took him in after the game. He’ll plea and get probation. 

 Someone’s being nice and not charging them with attempted murder after stomping the dudes head that many times after he was unconscious.  
 

I mean he’s right but do you really need to say it out loud? 

Got bored and fixed the Eagles. 

People are over valuing Brisker

Seems like it from where I see him ranked on other big boards. I think he’s really good.

 Avant has said on his Podcast that Reagor was bringing up Jefferson’s name in TC, so then it was brought up by Slay, who was destroying Reagor in practice…. Which led to their fight in practice that Avant was blamed for.   
 The Eagles media brought it up often during their rookie seasons. The players like to believe the fans steer the narrative, and the writers, especially the Eagles beat writers, are happy to let the fans take the fall for their spin.

Misses too many tackles

Not sure if anyone posted, but Lance Zierlein had us taking Kenyon Green, Drake London and Brisker with our three firsts.

I'd be pretty pissed.

Any bets on where Howie goes?

He's 100% right, he wouldn't have had anywhere near the seasons he's had if he were on this team. People would be bishing and moaning that we didn't take some other guy who would be having a great season. Reagor isn't great, and jefferson would have been better (real high bar to clear), but he would not be the jefferson we see on the vikings.

Yes, I know. I’m just tired of other players or coaches keep saying Hurts sucks but the majority of the fan base thinks it’s fine.

Yeah, as bad as Cousins can be, he's better than what we have had at QB the last 2 years in Wentz/Hurts. Jefferson would not be this receiving monster with them.

Wouldn’t even spend bus fare to watch Corral workout; his shoelace might come undone and he’ll be in the medical tent.

All three of them will likely come in for official visits so it’s not a huge decision either way

Hard to target a guy who can't run a proper route. Also speaks a bit to Hurt's limited ability to process beyond the first option or 2. 

This is confusing. On average, Reagor is at most the fourth option on passing downs (and earlier in the season, he would have been the fifth). Don’t think most QBs in this league are getting to number 4/5 consistently.

That’s beyond awful. I’m ok with Green. The other two? Nah.

Cincinnati if he has functioning brain cells. They have by far the most draftable players throughout all 3 days. 

I’m not sure about Drake London - he’ll probably run a similar time as Evans, Floyd, Vincent Jackson, Brandon Marshall - but all of those guys were significantly heavier. The only guy I can think of that had a similar h/w/s profile was Drew Bennett, who certainly had his moments. Idk, maybe London jumps through the roof or has 36” arms. You think X but he’s nimble enough for a big slot.
