Just hope the Colts get one of Chubb or Nelson.

There's a lot of money going on Mayfield to be the first pick today. Adam Schefter think it'll be him.

Thanks Cleveland.
Now Pittsburgh draft someone who'll drop Mayfield on his arse repeatedly.

IDK if they'll take a pass rusher. I've got them taking Vander Esch.

You can never have too many pass rushers.
I've got Esch going to Dallas with Pittsburgh taking Rashaan Evans - we desperately need a replacement for Shazier

Love Fitzpatrick. He reminds me a little of Ed Reed. He's notorious for watching tons of film just like Reed used to do.
I can't believe that Ozzie just traded down with Tremaine Edmunds still on the board.

Passing up on Tremaine Edwards - a major need at ILB - for Miller is a real headscratcher from the Raiders front office again, especially after trading down.
Interesting to see how Martavis Bryant fits in alongside Jordy Nelson and Cooper as our receiving corp this year though.

For what it's worth, all jokes aside, the whole Mayfield thing could really go either way. Yes the behavioral stuff both on and off the field doesn't exactly warm him to people but the Manziel comparisons are a bit unfair. Manziel didn't want to put the work in and thought that because he was big-time in high school and college meant he could just show up to games and dominate without trying, which didn't work out for him. Mayfield is by all accounts a complete football nerd behind the scenes. He supposedly spends hours going over tape and is prepared to put the work in to make it to the top.
If he can keep himself out of trouble then his self-assurance and determination to win could be just what the organization needs to fire them up. He doesn't strike me as someone who's going to sit on the bench and accept mediocrity from his teammates. He'll want to be right in the middle of things leading by example and could drag the the team up kicking and screaming. It takes a certain amount of balls to come in as a kid and be the team leader over guys who are 7 or 8 years older than you, and he's got balls in abundance. It'll be interesting to see which way it plays out.

I think the key will be giving him time to adapt, which Tyrod Taylor should provide.
If the Browns don't screw this draft up they could leave themselves in a strong position to compete for the AFC North over the next few years.

I think the Raiders whiffed a bit on the 1st round but I think they might turn up a couple good players between rounds 2 and 5.
Rumours they're trying to trade into top spots in round 2.

Mike Silver (reporter for the NFL Network) said they would have picked Miller even if they didn't trade down, so at least you got Bryant with him. He thinks they'll go for another one in the second round.
Most people are saying it was a bad pick. Great athlete but terrible technique.

Pats really liked the Pats taking Isaiah Wynn in the first, can play across the front and is a great technical blocker, will allow us to let Mason walk next off season if we can't work out a contract.
I like Sony Michel but think it was a bit early to grab him at 31, would have preferred we grabbed Landry.
Now we just traded a 3rd round pick to the 49ers for Trent Brown and a 4th round pick. If Scarnecchia can work the magic on Brown (who Von Miller called the best RT in the NFL) that he worked on the likes of Koppen, Connolly,Andruzzi, Waddle and a host of other OL and get Brown to actually get in shape i think our OL will be very good this year.
Would like us to grab Lauletta in the 2nd.

We (Bears) are having a pretty good draft so far. Future starting to look a little bit brighter
