when a lot of people start to really like a guy, that means he's gonna get drafted higher. i've seen a few drafts that have him going around our pick at #14Quote:

Those two are football players. Smith reminds me a bit of Davante Adams. Pretty comparable measurables too.
Adams = 6'1" 212, 4.56 40, 4.30 shuttle, 6.83 3 cone, 39 1/2" vertical, 123" broad jump
Smith = 6'2" 210, 4.49 40, 4.50 shuttle, 6.97 3 cone, 37 1/2" vertical, 130" broad jump
Gallup = 6'1" 205, 4.51 40, 4.37 shuttle, 6.95 3 cone, 36" vertical, 122" broad jump
I think both Smith and Gallup are a little underrated athletically.
Yup TT and MM sure place a real screwing on the Packers.Quote:

Yeah, it's not like the season-ending injuries had any effect. Still, in his full rb year, he had 56 targets in the passing game to 77 rushes. He had almost 6 yards/rush compared to around 8 yards/catch and 800 total yards from scrimmage. I suppose he missed out of some refinement in back shoulder throws or something, but I imagine he can catch up, given his ability to transition to a role coming out of the backfield so readily. I'm more concerned about his overall productivity. It seems like a guy with his combination of size and speed makes for more of a utility type receiver out of the backfield than say a deep downfield threat.Quote:

NFL Mock Draft 2018: Browns trade pick to Cardinals; Jets' big move lands Josh Rosen
After Gang Green's aggressive trade up with the Colts, the quarterbacks fly off the board early

14. Green Bay Packers
Mike McGlinchey, OT, Notre Dame. With McGlinchey at right tackle and the vastly underrated David Bakhtiari on the left side, the Packers will boast two quality pass-protectors for Aaron Rodgers.
All 3 of the mocks on that site have us taking guys I don't want... I like Hernandez, but he's not the kind of guy MM would take; and, I don't want him in the 1st.Quote:

Tons of mocks are having Ward go in the top 8. Wouldn't mind if they traded up to get him.Quote:

Good. Lord. Since we are not really doing much of anything in free agency, there is so much work that needs to be done in the draft. We also need some of our players to actually step up and produce (see Josh Jones). If not, our defense could be the new definition for "epic bad." Definitely would make sense to me to trade up to make sure we get that impact player or players we need (see Ward or James)
Both the Eagles and the Jags went deep by going early and often on the big guys up front. Don't you want to follow the leader?Quote:

He will be your favorite if you like players coming back from knee injuries.
And of course, once his heel heals and the infection is gone, Breeland is still out there.
In other infectious news, Bob Uecker was bitten by a Recluse Spider in Arizona last winter. Wound got infected and they had to remove infected tissue and leave the wound open to draw out the rest. Think it was on his leg.
Prior to fast medical response with effective antibiotics (Ueck waited four days before seeing the Doc), this was a common way to deal with infection in skin tissues. If you've ever seen someone treated in this manner, its both slightly morbid and fascinating.

Check out the fat guys Todd drafted in round 1:Quote:

The moral of Todd's story is, don't draft fat guys in round 1. If a good fat guy is there in rd 2 or later, fine. But in round 1, give me a finesse player.
Jury isn't out on Clark. He was great last year and very effective as a rookie.
Love that the only comment on Bulaga is injury prone and not Pro Bowl level RT. :roll:
And Harrell has nothing on Rich Campbell.
