Official 2016 NFL draft thread

Not by TT. I'd drop over dead with a heart attack if TT passed on a DLman or OLman or OLB in favor of a TE. He just doesn't value them.

I agree. He took Finley and DickRod in the 3rd round. That's probably as high as he'd go.

OK. If not McEvoy, maybe one of these two guys: Miles Killebrew 6'2" 223 lbs; Jeremy Cash 6'1" 208 lbs. I really would like to see TT draft a hard-hitting, speedy safety instead of another Jake Ryan at ILB. I won't be surprised if he does.

well..... they are highlight tapes of their best plays.

I like Cash better because he is playing in the ACC. I sure would hope Killebrew would dominate in the Big Sky or whatever conference they are in. I saw some mid-field logos I have never seen before in that video.

I agree. Cash is the best, but he's a 1st round pick probably. I've read where some scouts compare Killebrew to the Cards' Bucannon. They say he's a better prospect now at this point in his career than Bucannon. But here we go again with scouts who talk out of their ass sometimes.

Killebrew has accepted an invite to the Senior Bowl. I wonder if he'll play both Safety and LB.

Sorta liking Killebrew. Hits as hard as the great Minnesota Twins slugger Harmon Killebrew. He'll have to tone it down a little though. Saw a couple hits on the sideline that would get him flagged in the NFL. CBS has him rated #171 overall and a 5th round prospect.

Why do the Packers need a safety?

You okay with Banjo as your backup? They could use some depth there.

Fine but you are not talking about drafting a guy in the first two rounds to be a back up. Don't forget you have Hyde

Maxie is talking about drafting a S and moving to ILB.

No. I was talking about Killebrew. He's projected as a 5th round pick.

More than an hour before the first Shrine practice and Ted Thompson of the Green Bay Packers is already at the practice field.

A 5th round pick as of now. I have a feeling, after the combine, Killebrew will work his way pretty high up the board. Right now, pre-combine, the whole board is subject to drastic change.

No doubt. And the Senior Bowl will be huge for him as he gets to compete against guys from the big schools.

Then you better switch to 4-3 and have two by bodies in front of him

That highlight reel had 3 maybe 4 tackles by McEvoy. It showed more TDs and INTs then tackles.

Was it just this season when he played safety? It was kinda fun watching a kid play both sides of the ball old school-wise.

In reality it doesn't really matter, great football players make great plays!
