My first post on WF was a mock with JJ Watt as the no.2 overall pick when everyone still had him as a 2nd or 3rd round prospect. I think I just turned 15 at the time. 

I argued with heaps of people as well about it. Looks like time proved me right. B|

 

People who had JJ Watt as a 2nd or 3rd round prospect.....I mean idk how to help you.

 Man when TJ Watt  Was coming out he was the number one player I really had hoped would fall to Pittsburgh and I honestly believed there was no chance in hell that we was going to happen because I felt like he was that good of a prospect. Looking back the teams in front of him at least some of them were absolutely foolish to pass him up.

In fact looking back....29 teams passed on Watt

Hes got insane upside though. Upside not quite as good as Brown but I think fairly close. 

Aside from Tre Smith, UT has a VERY young OL and he was invisible.  I haven't gone full research mode, but I wasn't impressed that game.

Kinlaw is a guy worth paying attention to how we he hasnt been as consistent as some other DTs, I could see him still being on the board in the late 2nd.

Maybe so. I need to look into him a bit more.

Some of us here were on the up and up on Donald. Jrry and I specifically. He was an elite prospect if you watched his tape. The doubts were unwarranted. I still remember the Gm mock and I have referenced it quite a bit but I drafted Clowney, Mack, and Donald haha.

He still wasn't as high a prospect as Suh.  Suh might be the best defensive prospect I have ever seen.  I'll never forget that Nebraska v Texas game that he took over.

Ed Oliver first 12 games 28 tackles 5 sacks

Aaron Donald 33 tackles 6 sacks

Now not saying Oliver will ever be Donald but I’m happy to see this and hopefully he continues to rise.

Oliver wont ever be Aaron Donald because I dont think he is as versatile. Having said that Oliver WILL be as important to his team in his role as Donald is to his team.

I have never been madder at the Packers for trading back than I was when they had Watt on the board and traded back.

I was just happy to get him. He was my favorite prospect and I spoke very candidly about that before the draft.

When we drafted TJ Watt, I started screaming and hollering expletives at the TV. My wife came running thinking something horrible just happened with one of our kids lol

If I'm being COMPLETELY honest, I dont even know who I like yet in this draft. I've scouted a bunch of guys but my team needs a lot. Idk where to even begin.

I did the same when we got Haha.  He gave us such hope...then fell off a cliff.

I was super pumped when we drafted Risner this year. Because I thought he would be good and he was on my BDL team already. 

Same as Dre'Mont and Drew.

Actually pretty crazy to think the two Broncos fans managed to draft the first 4 Broncos taken. Is Elway just watching us?
