Totally worthless stats because most were Leyer's players at the first of the decade.

Also, no offensive players drafted first round since since Pouncey and no offensive skill players since 2010. Thats right, ZERO since Tebow.

Zeke Elliot?

Rumors flying around that teams are passing on Jawaan Taylor due to serious health concerns. No one is saying what they are. Only that he could really drop.

Maybe he can drop to the Dolphins.

I read the Cardinals might not be taking a QB first, perhaps looking for a trade.

The Cards are idiots, and I’m not saying that as a referendum on whether Murray will work out, as I don’t know. They are stupid because at least one (and maybe both) of their 2 first round picks from last year & tonight will have been wasted. If Murray unseats Rosen, Rosen gets traded for at best a second round pick, maybe lower. Wasted pick.

If Murray can’t win the job then he was a wasted pick and management has effectively told Rosen they don’t believe in him, which still makes him a wasted pick, as he either most likely won’t perform at a high level or he’ll perform and bail for another team first chance he gets.

Either way, wasting first round, top 10 or better picks isn’t a good recipe for success in the NFL.

Unless they then trade their number one pick QB for multiple players.

Yeah, stupid move. Could have traded down several spots, picked up a few extra draft picks and still landed Jones.

Ditto for the Raiders taking that kid from Clemson at # 4. Most boards had him somewhere between low teens and mid 20’s. They could have traded down to let’s say # 20 and probably needed up with multiple 1st round picks from that trade alone...and still got the kid.

If you’re talking about Murray, you’re correct but that’s about their only chance to escape the quandary unscathed and that’s probably a long shot. I think value can be better maximized by trading draft picks before selecting the player. Once the players start being drafted the dynamics change dramatically and things get more complicated, IMO.

Word is, Jawaan Taylor has knee issues. The only thing that could cause him to fall as far as experts are talking about is some sort of degenerative problem. Anyone heard about this in his time at UF?

NFL teams are desperate for edge rushers.

Vikings fans obviously drunk going nuts over drafting a center from NC State.
