He’s going first round. The talent is off the charts. Somebody is going to take a chance. Definitely not Jamarcus Russel 2.0. More like unrefined Cam Newton. He’d be a beast in the Taysom Hill package.

Devon Witherspoon.

By the way, Mina Kimes is great!

Seems to me one of the great assets that we have, taysom hill, was just not utilized correctly for years and maybe it’s time to find the next version. The kid from Texas, R. Thompson, would be a player I would keep an eye on in the later rounds. Recruited as a qb but was put at rd when Texas had injury problems at the position. Big, strong guy and a team player willing to do whatever it takes to win. Remind you of anyone.

Qb's I like in the draft McKee, Haener and McCall. I favor McCall over both simply because of the int. ratio over the past 2 years.

Lukas Van Ness, Edge rusher
IOWA

Big guy (6'5), and plays low en route to the QB.

Late Day 1, early Day 2 predictions & scouting report.

Not even going to go check his WonderSlick. Not sure he has the gray matter to succeed at the next level. He has assuredly the physical attributes many drool over. Many just like him have success transitioning from HS to college. The NFL is a different animal. You don't always, almost never in fact, get 5 seconds to peruse the field for the open guy on everything play, assuming the WRs and TEs even understand how to get open.

The QB prospect Hendon Hooker is a guy I like ... a lot & he'll be available at #29 & maybe in the 2nd round.

The bigger question is if he's even on Saint's radar. If he's your man, take him & feel good about the pick.

We all enjoy this time of year and the projections made in mock drafts. Just be ready for the first round pick to be a fullback from Albion College.
