Someone get Ron a subscription to Mel Kiper’s blog.
I mean all 4 guys we have picked so far are within the top 5 of position rank at their potions per the ESPN rankings done with mel and other experts. That's really good so we get 4 top 5 prospects could be 5 as we continue there is one top 5 position prospect left on the board as I write this post. Because Henry too too keeps falling

Andre Jones? I dont understand this one at all. We are not yet in the area where we make major reaches, but this IMO is one.

Picks 1-4 I say are a+ grades.
All 4 guys were top 5 in their position ranks and are going to be good players.

Then it got weird why did we give up a 6 to move up 13 spots to take a guy who's either still gonna be there or who cares if he isn't where there were better players on the board. That's to be was an F grade trade.

The RB is what ever that kind of what you have to do these days.

The 5th and 7th rounders are what ever we need to beef up the D because we might very well trade chase. But too too was sitting there and we trade up to pass him up for a lesser player?
Please cks 5-7 get and F for me because of the trade.

I get the sense it's the 4.63 he posted in the 40 at the combine. That's linebacker speed. Average 10 yard split for a pro bowl defensive edge rusher is 1.67. Henry posted a 1.66. I expect they figure there is enough baseline athletic talent they can develop. Intel probably suggested another team was going to snatch him, and somebody on their scouting squad had fallen in love with the athleticism.

Nick whiteside. Cb Is a small school guy but he's 6'1 205 with ok speed, is a good tackle guy and a decent ball hawk. Could be a player.

Mason brooks of has good beef and decent enough hands I thinkg he could be decent

Brad Roberts form air force. He was a legit hard nose runner. So maybe we can sneak a few cheap years out of him.

A. The deal is still not done yet is it?
B. You all are far more optimistic than I was on draft day, though I do think Rivera--aside from the first pick--mostly went high floor low ceiling
C. I can't believe this team has roped me back in using the exact same off season sunshine propaganda tactics as always--I see it coming and still can't stop it

I was telling my wife yesterday that I didn't want the team in DC because it would make traffic for us a disaster, even being way up in Northwest.

So I hope they come to a deal with MD. I heard rumblings that they might build a new stadium at the Harbor. near the casino..I would be okay with that.
