I know the Cowboys board leaked a couple of years back and it was definitely interesting to see how they stacked things. We do get some ideas of it after the draft as often various media members will be embedded and they will be allowed to share tidbits that shed light on things.
I think, for the most part, the idea of the smokescreen is so well known that it's almost a smokescreen more so to not say anything about a player than it is to try and put out bad info. A lot of that stuff worked better in the pre-social media era and I think teams have caught on a lot better.
So who has the scout you're acquaintances with said is the top of the 2nd tier OTs, if they have even mentioned that. If the draft goes as expected with Chase being the pick in the 1st, I would hope the Bengals are aggressive in getting the best of the 2nd tier guys and not waiting to see who drops. I said "hope" because I don't think they will be aggresive, but regardless, is the scouts thinking Cosi, Eichenberg, or someone else?
