Skins get Preston Smith

I knew he was a box safety but I didn't realize he was 228. Pretty good for sub-4.5.

Landon Collins to the Giants

Rod Hill had great athletic ability... :awkward But I'm sure he'll be fine. I do think he'll start at corner, though, unless we draft someone else who turns out to be excellent. Jerry said a big reason we took him was how thin we are at CB.

Wouldn't be surprised if we trade up for Coleman. A lot of us thought he looked kind of like Murray (but faster) but I forgot his head coach at Indiana is the same guy Murray had at OU.

Hey cmd, I've missed it -- what do you think about Agholor? Not that he'll be bad, but it seems to me like kind of a meh pick for #20 overall.

I still think they want to run it, and will try to do exactly what they did last year. But what if they're convinced it really is 100% the great OL and anyone can run behind it? I think they're wrong about that. And I'm not even the biggest Murray fan, but his toughness and reliability was...

Who else thinks there's no way we don't trade up in the second for a back when one or two go off the board?

Yeah, I'm not impressed with Paea or Knighton at all. Knighton's just a big fat space eater, total opposite of Williams. In fact I bet he's a bust. He's just the kind of player I wouldn't give a big contract to.

Says Coleman, Ajayi, Yeldon, maybe Duke Johnson, Allen are the backs we're interested in. Not so much Abdullah or David Johnson. Hunter, Harrellson, Clark are the DEs we'd look at. We'd look at Petty in the 4th but don't think he'll make it that far.

David Moore says he talked to Cowboys people after the fact last night when they'd had some drinks, and he says the other players they discussed were Kendricks and McKinney. Says Dupree is the player they really wanted but they weren't surprised when he went before we had a chance at him.

I mean, who really knows. Sometimes these guys with great athletic ability do pan out. You are a little wary when the first reports of him are his combine jumping events, though. Like most, I'd try him at FS. He doesn't look like he turns very fluidly in his workouts.

I guess my point is, I'm sure they did try... But the fact they didn't tells me there wasn't the demand for Williams I would have thought, at least among picks, say, 6-9. For now, I'd say we dodged a bullet on their passing on him. I still think 5 is way too high for any OL outside of a...

I'm fascinated by the Skins passing on Leonard Williams. Has anyone heard anything about that? Even if they liked Scherff better, which they obviously did for some reason, I'd think they could auction off that pick for quite a bit to move down just a few spots and still get their guy. Was...

Sure does. Also, I've always hated this "position flex" argument. It might work on the o-line, but not really anywhere else. If a player is really good, you don't move him around. You know when you move a drafted corner to safety? When he flunks out as a corner. The game at the pro level is...

Pats get Malcom Brown. Figures. Also, Jerry practically admitted Jones was a need pick. Said we could get by at D-end or RB with an injury or two, but corner was the position we had to add someone because we'd be sunk if Carr or Scandrick got hurt.

Jerry giving the post draft PC. Over/under on how many minutes until he makes a joke about his last name/their being related? First words out of Garrett's mouth: "Certainly the right kind of guy." :facepalm Oh, coach Pasqualoni coached him. There's the connection. Jerry already saying he...

:lol

It's terrible. That's exactly why I do something else and listen to it on the radio. You get all the analysis (probably better because there's less circus) and interviews without all the stupid crap. That Mark Dominik was on the ESPN national feed tonight and he was pretty good.

David Moore said we didn't like him as much as some, that he's too small. FWIW. Also, are we certain Jones will play corner? Could he play FS for us? Maybe they realize our safeties suck?
