But he hasn’t been picked yet so that says everything about what I know 😂 I find it funny that people criticising the Leatherwood pick as a reach (me included) are the same ones who said we should pick JOK, Moehrig, Jenkins or Phillips, who haven’t been picked yet. 🤷♂️ Teams pass on good players all the time, so it's really not that funny.

Kollman's video came out on March 30 here's a google search of "nfl mock draft" with only results from before march 29. https://www.google.com/search?q=nfl+mock+draft&rlz=1C1PQHB_enUS951US951&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A%2Ccd_max%3A3%2F29%2F2021&tbm= all of the ones i've clicked through on the first page show Jenkins going in the first round Well, earlier in the draft process he was definitely a 2nd Rounder most places with his T-Rex arms and sloppy footwork. I had him as a 2nd and projected guard. And the guard projection is pretty 50/50. A lot of people out there think hes a guard, a lot of people out there think he's a RT but can never play LT.

Although against anyone non-elite, he’s basically a wall. Edited April 30, 2021 by BayRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I think he has the ability too. And I referenced cryptocurrency back in the day, although it’s a complete different thing. YouTubers, with 50k subscribers or so, were able to manipulate any coin with videos, was pretty unreal. Not sure if Kollman can do that, but what I can tell you is that way too many people take Kollman’s videos as gospel, and anyone he makes a video on instantly gets superrrr overrated in the draftnik community. No one on this forum was talking about Jenkins at 17 before the Kollman video, to my knowledge. And yes, I’m sure some of these media guys like him. PFF, TDN, etc. Edited April 30, 2021 by BayRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one on this forum was talking about Jenkins at 17 before the Kollman video, to my knowledge. but you'd be able to show a before-after effect, ie wildly different valuations of Teven Jenkins immediately preceding March 30. you might be able to show that with a crypto scenario. while going on the actually prove causation is another step entirely, first you have to at least be able to make the simple demonstration that there was a change in value of the product. it can be done with crypto. i dont think it can be done with Jenkins. thats why to make my point i linked to mock drafts before his video. he was already a first round pick in all of them. im legit baffled that people would be pushing this narrative Edited April 30, 2021 by Turnobili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson fell presumably cause of his shoulder surgery though. But yeah, Arnette over Johnson was ROUGH. I was pretty sad that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ojulari and Phillips have medicals, and Darrisaw apparently has a questionable drive, no thanks. The comparison for me will obviously be Darrisaw, but i dont have a problem with not taking a guy like that after we dealt with Trent Brown. Imagine the optics of trading away Brown, who is one of the better RTs in the league when right, just to take another guy that has been considered lazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) While I said my board was 1) Darrisaw 2) Farley for 17 specifically , I would of traded to 11 to get Fields. What the Bears gave up was more than worth it. Edited April 30, 2021 by BayRaider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
