I think think Ferrell is probably a mid-late 1st round guy, Wilkins is a late 1, Lawrence is defintely a 2/3 for me right now.

I don't understand why people think that Pettine just doesn't value or use EDGE pressure. There's some weird groupthink going on with this idea that doesn't make any sense.

Creating sacks through blitzing is worse than creating sacks without blitzing. The reason GB had to blitz so much is because the front couldn't generate pressure by themselves. If you can get high-quality EDGE guys, you don't have to send extra men from coverage.

Terrible management of pretty much everything since the 15-16 season. Letting Ozil and Rambo's contract run down, letting Alexis leave for pennies on the dollar, not supporting the midfield until this summer, not adding any real wide talent when it was desperately needed, and then whiffing at CB with Mustafi. And then Unai Emery is also probably not very good.

I'm gonna pass. I can't commit to the GM duties because of my job. More of a support role.

He was a great EDGE prospect when he came out and has been miscast as an OBLB. You can probably get him at a slight discount because of the uncertainty involved, but his value is highest to a team willing to use him as an EDGE.

We need to have the Anthony Barr discussion, but we should probably have it on the google doc.

I gotchya. Tyrell Williams number dang near made me fall out of my chair lol

He played D2 football in college and nothing in his athletic profile really jumps out. He's decently fast, pretty big, but he hasn't done anything on an NFL field that should make anyone think he's anything more than a fringe TE2/3.

From what I understand, it was pretty procedural. It was on his record, so they rescinded the invite.

oof so... Drafting a backup QB, who you hope never sees the field at 30 or in the 2nd should get you fired. Kizer is terrible, no doubt about it. Like, he's suuuuuuper bad. Boyle is probably also bad. Clayton Thorson, also terrible: https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/clayton-thorson-1.html Thorson's completion %s are bad, his AY/A's are bad and for the last two years of his career, his TD:INT ratio was trash. He sucks. He's not just not good, he sucks. There's no point in spending decent draft capital at backup QB, and there's certainly no point in spending it on a QB who has shown no indications of being anything more than a mediocre B1G QB.

He has 17 career catches in 19 games. He's maybe a TE2. That's worth maybe a 6th rounder.

I'd been a Doctson fan, but probably not what they're going to ask. Shaheen had five catches for 48 yards in 2018. I would maybe do a 7th. A 4th is just an insulting ask.

I'm so pissed that I have to wait until his pro-day to run his athletic numbers.

Someone I think we should kick the tires on is Derek Rivers. He's hardly played for NE, he had an ACL injury, but the guys testing numbers were great and he was super productive in college. Nothing more than a low day 3 pick, but if they're willing to just move him, I think we should be all over him as a breakout guy.
