overall makes sense geographically but as a Bengals fan I enjoy the proximity of Cleveland and Pittsburg as well as those rivalries so hard no from me.
 
Sounds like OT is going to move towards the playoff model where both teams get the ball at least once. Still staying with 10 minutes, though - I assume that's always been because of TV. Networks don't want the 1pm spilling over into the 4pm too much or the 4pm messing with 60 Minutes. :ROFLMAO:

Kickoff touchbacks move from the 30 up to the 35. We'll see if that increases the number of kicks actually returned.
 
Some leaks from the Steeler office seem to indicate that Rodger’s will eventually sign .

I agree, Sanders is the answer for New Orleans. Let's trade the #2 pick to NO for #9 and Chris Olave.
 
My 1st round mock, using a mosaic of different sources in conjunction with team needs:

1 TEN QB Cameron Ward
2 CLE CB Travis Hunter
3 NYG EDGE Abdul Carter
4 NE T Will Campbell
5 JAX DL Mason Graham
6 LV HB Ashton Jeanty
7 NYJ TE Tyler Warren
8 CAR WR Tetairoa McMillan
9 NO CB Jahdae Barron
10 CHI T Armand Membou
11 SF CB Will Johnson
12 DAL EDGE Mike Green
13 MIA DL Walter Nolen
14 IND LB Jihaad Campbell
15 ATL S Malaki Starks
16 ARI EDGE Donovan Ezeiruaku
17 CIN EDGE Jalon Walker
18 SEA WR Luther Burden III
19 TB EDGE James Pearce Jr.
20 DEN WR Matthew Golden
21 PIT QB Shedeur Sanders
22 LAC TE Colston Loveland
23 GB WR Emeka Egbuka
24 MIN DL Kenneth Grant
25 HOU T Kelvin Banks Jr.
26 LAR T Josh Simmons
27 BAL T Grey Zabel
28 DET EDGE Nic Scourton
29 WAS HB Omarion Hampton
30 BUF EDGE Shemar Stewart
31 KC T Josh Conerly Jr.
32 PHI EDGE Mykel Williams
 
I'm more than ready for the NFL draft to be over. It's maddening to me how much time is used to talk about this. First of all, no one know who they are drafting until their time comes up. So mock drafts are useless.

Browns are apparently out on Hunter, when they weighed him without his chains, he was only 165lbs.

That’s just my guess, not who I would pick. I just averaged out a few different rankings, looked at the projected needs of each team and went from there.

No, I get it. I just hate it lol. Especially with Banks available. But I don’t see the bengals going for a short term guard possible long term LT in the first round. They don’t value the guard position.
 
IMO the biggest locks to be successful pros:

Carter
Graham
Jeanty
Warren
Egbuka
Loveland
Barron
J. Campbell
Starks


This isn't a great draft for the premium positions on Offense (QB, OT, X WR (Boundary) or at CB. It is pretty strong at DT & DE. There's going to be a lot of value in the middle rounds.

He would've been the 4th or 5th QB in last year's Draft. Teams without a QB are so desperate, they continue to reach way, way too high for a QB.

Yes and this is why I’ve stopped following the franchise. Just like the Reds they are so bad they aren’t worth causing me any more headaches

I just feel another shot at a franchise QB when your O-line isn't great and you don't have a good running game will just set this kid ( or any young QB) up for failure.
