When you have approach approach conflict it feels like a win-win but not in actuality. It will take time and confirmation bias to kick in otherwise as they say the grass is greener in the other side of the fence

I am not certain of this but I believe if Chase is drafted by the Bengals this will be the first quarterback wide receiver tandem that were superstars that played in college together that ended up together in the NFL. At least early in their careers.

I'm looking at your list again... so I guess Boomer and Chad never took a side, huh? They have bigger platforms than anyone and they're not exactly shy with their opinions. I don't know what to make of that. It's interesting.

This is the most exciting and intriguing draft we've had in a very long time. I'm excited to see how it plays out. No matter who we take we are primed to end up with an impact player.

On Bucky Brooks top 5 OT on he has Darrisaw at 3 and on this pros its Agressive and Finishes plays /w nastiness lol. It's on the NFL Network draft day ticker.
I dont see the doesnt finish plays deal and I've watched a ton of Darrisaw. Several plays he is blocking guys through the whistle like the play vs NC when hes pushing Chazz Surrat 15 yards down the field.

It's the nature of the beast around here. It's not enough to like "your guy" you have to criticize the other guy.
I'd love to se Sewell at #5 OA. But I'm not going to poke holes in another to do so,

I would think the first two picks will be quick ones, and probably the third also.

2nd and 3rd rounds?
I ask that as it was pointed out today that an additional sign to us taking Chase is the fact that Pollack was at EVERY Pro Day for tackles expected to go in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, i.e. skill player in round 1, OL in rounds 2 and/or 3.

In his 3 years he has just over 1100 pass protection reps and gave up only 3 sacks and 1.5 of those came in his first game as a true freshman against one of the better NFL pass rushers Brian Burns. He has the second best PFF score ever behind Penei Sewell and he did it against NFL caliber competiton alot of guys you will see drafted this year and future top picks like Clemsons Myles Murphy. Believe it or not even with those numbers he is a better run blocker than pass blocker his Miami tape is a clinic on zone blocking... Also one of my favorite things about him is that he has 3 penalties over his last two seasons.
You can write him off because of high school academics which he went to a military academy and mentioned how it helped him grow up or a minor core muscle injury he played through and had surgery in the off-season.
Bust.

Nope. The Shield likes the "drama" of it, which is why the #1OA pick cannot sign before the draft anymore, and why they take virtually the entire clock before saying "The Pick Is In".

Earl Bennett and Jay Cutler played together early on. Both of those guys were First Team All SEC together in 2005. Neither were studs in the NFL, but they did play together with the Bears.

Gotta love Rodgers petty revenge to take a dump all over the packers on draft day like the packers did to him last year. Admirable.

Crazy. Curious what the return would be after seeing how much Stafford commanded.
I also saw a crazy rumor that New Orleans offered both Michael Thomas, Marshon Lattimore, along with a 1st, and a 2nd.
