    Rob Staton's take on Byron Murphy

    He is correct that Murphy can play nose or 3 tech. That is very exciting given that Williams can play all three positions on the line. And we know Reed can play nose or three tech too. Mac can move these players around to create mismatches and to cause confusion with blocking assignments. The...

    The NFC west draft

    All were good selections and it is going to be a tough division for sure!

    Predictions for the 3rd round pick?

    Either guard or LB is my prediction.

    Happy for the Donks.

    I feel like the moves the Broncos have done so far this year are better than last year and that is with some serious restraints due to salary cap realties. Adding Josh Reynolds who is a low end starter that can be reliable to line up with Mims and Sutton is good. And a nice recovery at safety...

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    I am sure Mac's eyes were HUGE when he saw what was available.

    How do we get a 2nd?

    The run on offensive players pushed down defensive players. But it is still a deep draft along the interior OL and WR. Hawks are in a good spot to take BAP on day 2.

    If Pete were still here

    This may have been a pivotal moment for JS as a GM as I mentioned in another thread. Like the JSN pick last year he stood pat and took BAP on the board. Having another top ten player fall into your lap is like ambrosia from the olympic gods. Especially being able to pick up arguably the best...

    Building a new defense

    Murphy is going to see snaps all over the front as a rookie.

    Falcons send contingent to scout Penix

    They don't trust Cousins which I agree with. What I don't agree with is handing Cousins all that money and also passing on some serious defensive talent on the board. The Falcons will need to fortify that OL when Penix steps into the lineup sooner or later. Because in the NFCS Evero, Bowles...

    Bills trade back…with KC

    The Bills need more than one top tier WR to have a functional offense. Based on what they lost they need to not only replace Diggs but Gabe Davis too. Davis was used far more running go routes to stretch the field while Diggs could be used all over the field. Bills are going to load up on a...

    Rams got Verse

    Verse is a good player but I think he has nearly maxed out his potential. Which is probably why he slid so far down the board if I was to speculate. Can Verse turn that corner and be a double digit sack rusher in the NFL? Or is Verse going to be a solid edge that provides 7-9 sacks per year?

    A couple of comparables to Byron Murphy

    Cortez was drafted in the top five I believe...given what happened this year it was a rare gift to land a top ten talent in Murphy so late in the draft of the first round.

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    JS back to back years being patient and landing top ten talents outside of the top ten. I know JS has a trigger finger to trade down often but he is probably maturing and altering his approach. He is altering his approach by not trying to outsmart his own board. If you have a player ranked in...

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    Like JSN last year this is great value by landing Murphy.

    Pick #16 - DT Byron Murphy

    Mac put on the tape and he saw keystone cops out there when the Hawks tried to stop the run and rush the passer from the inside. No offense intended to D. Jones but he did not live up to his contract that he signed. But I think Mac can rejuvenate D. Jones' career.
