    This is going to be a wild first rd draft to watch unfold.

    Doesn’t bode well for the no QB crowd though. All of them could still be available by the time the Steelers pick. Ideally it would be great if they fell all the way into the second. We’ll see what kind of patience teams have.

    How does this guy know who is on what teams board, lol. Does he go to town to town looking at each teams draft boards? Lol. Or are we just putting ifait in the media. Again...

    The Chiefs came right out and said it publicly.

    Was listening today. Unless someone pulls an absolute surprise moving up Jax and Detroit are stuck lol. Word is no one is biting and both would like to move out of those spots. It might happen as drafts are unpredictable. But it might prove to be a rather boring 1st few picks.

    About 150years ago there was this invention called the telephone. Since then there have been more incredible inventions that help people to communicate. Perhaps you’ve heard of them- email, text messaging…

    they won’t tell them exactly and it doesn’t have to be a gm. It can be a scout. An intern. Lots of possibilities and it doesn’t have to be specific. It can be something like we only have a first round grade on 15 people. They haven’t given anything away and it doesn’t mean it’s true.

    Some good defensive players there though, surprised they would want to pass that up given how few 1st rd grades there are apparently.

    Maybe its not a gm, maybe it is a scout, or another member of the team that " said it" ,But isnt this the time of year when teams put out misinfornation regarding the draft... you said yourself. It may not be true.... jmo but like i was told u shoudnt put alot of stock og what these guys (media) say

    you’re also missing one key word in that sentence-“some”. He didn’t say all. Or the majority. He chose the word some. That could be one, two, three teams. So it very well might be 100% true and not fake news. Reading is fundamental

    For sure. I.think the thought is that is there truly a number 1. Some years the talent is so outstanding that you see the play elevated that much. I'm not 2nd guessing as I don't follow it as closely as Some. Just hearing what 'experts' are saying to fill time on the radio lol.

    Thats true. There isn’t a widely regarded number 1 in this draft. Heard that being spoken about earlier today.
