The second and third round are really starting to look nice in this draft. I really hope we can trade Sheldon and pickup another 2nd or third rounder. 1st Round: Fournette 2nd Round: Forrest Lamp 3rd Round: Justin Evans 3rd Round (Sheldon Trade) Cameron Sutton 3rd Round: Tyus Bowser 5th Round: Jake Butt I love it expect for Justin Evans. People say he hits hard, but he's a HORRIBLE tackler. He just lowers his shoulder and goes for espn highlight type hits. The next time he wraps up will be the first time. We'd have the worst tackling backfield in the league with him and Pryor. I'd rather draft Tedric Thompson in the later rounds. He's a useless tackler but he's the best coverage S in the draft. He's the opposite of Pryor, but if you surround him with decent CBs and Ss and he'd be a beast. Also Forrest Lamp is not making it to our 2nd round pick. He's a 1st round pick right now.

We don't need Forrest Lamp but I would love to draft him. He would be a fan favorite and all pro throughout the next decade barring injuries. We are set at guard, but we could plug Lamp in at center for possibly 10 years. Wesley Johnson is ok, but not good enough for me to pass on Lamp.

I like Tedric Thompson a lot as well. Another interesting mid rounder is Eddie Jackson from Alabama (he is recovering from an injury right now). Jackson is a converted corner who is pretty good in coverage and an excellent returner.

If he didn't get injured I think he might have been a late 1st round pick. He's a great athlete and has a lot of range. He kind of reminds me of Ha Ha Clinton Dix.

Adam SchefterVerified account @adamschefter Bama's Reuben Foster, a potential top-10 pick, is being sent home from combine for heated argument with a hospital worker, sources tell ESPN
Adam SchefterVerified account @adamschefter Reuben Foster was scheduled to do team interviews tonight and team tests Saturday; now scheduled to fly home to Tuscaloosa on Saturday.
Adam SchefterVerified account @adamschefter
All one NFL spokesman would say was that Reuben Foster was being sent home for "personal reasons" and did not want to comment any further.
Katherine TerrellVerified account @kat_Terrell
I was told by one team that Foster did not have a great interview. Not a good chain of events here.
Charles Robinson @charlesrobinson
Per #Alabama LB Reuben Foster, #NFL source said he got into heated argument with a doctor. Felt mistreated. Wasn't a physical confrontation.
"Foster grew impatient with long line for exams... pulled the 'do you know who I am?' card. A male hospital employee, unimpressed, told him he would wait like everyone else. Foster warned the man that he'd put hands on him, and the employee said, simply, Do it. That's when the "face to face, heated exchange" happened, as Schefter reported."
What a moron

Eddie Jackson could be this year's Karl Joseph. Injured safety that is largely being overlooked in the run up to the draft -- who ends up going a lot higher than we expect at this point. I don't think 1st round is out of the question, if the leg checks out.

Chris Godwin making himself some money this AM. Good time in the 40 and showed some really nice hands in the gauntlet.

The longer this combine/offseason goes, the more it just feels like in 5 years, it'll be a forgettable class with half a dozen memorable players.

John Ross runs a 4.22 breaking CJ's record Jebus Is it official yet? They showed him run next to CJ's line and it looked like he was .02 slower. Still super impressive since he cramped up in the first 10 yards. It's a shame he couldn't do his second run and drills. Also Curtis Samuel looked impressive running a 4.31. He's pretty underrated and kind of a Percy Harvin / Tyreek Hill type player.

The tight ends are killing it. I knew Bucky Hodges was a great athlete, but I didn't expect him to edge out Njoku.
TE Verticals Evan Engram 36 OJ Howard 30 David Njoku 37.5 Adam Shaheen 32.5 Bucky Hodges 39 Jonnu Smith 38 Jordan Leggett 33
TE Broad Jumps Evan Engram 125 Bucky Hodges 134 George Kittle 132 David Njoku 133 OJ Howard 121 Gerald Everett 126 A.Shaheen 121 Leggett 114
