2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............

[lee909]

Im simply think we currently have two starting DT on the books who are both FA next year. Jenkins has done notjing of note for me and Fairley could go either way (thougj i like the pick up) getting a pair of DT now gets them embedded while we have others for rotation and they are ready to go by next year.

As i have said before my knowledge is off tjis year having seen no college football ladt year

Anyway Bleachers Reports Matt Miller final mock

1. Paxton Lynch, QB Round 1, 12th pick
2. Maliek Collins, DL Round 2, 16th pick
3. Jordan Jenkins, DE Round 3, 15th pick
4. Cayleb Jones, WR Round 4, 14th pick
5. Roberto Aguayo, K Round 5, 13th pick
6. Kevon Seymour, CB Round 7, 16th pick

The Pick: QB Paxton Lynch, Memphis

When pick No. 12 comes up tonight, I will not be surprised if the New Orleans Saints have traded out of it. If they stay, Paxton Lynch does make sense for a team that’s reportedly tried to land Marcus Mariota and Jared Goff via trades up in the last two drafts.

Lynch is an exciting, big-armed athlete with the mobility to execute the roll-outs in Sean Payton’s scheme. He also has the arm to throw down the field and up the seam—something Drew Brees does very well. The knock on Lynch is that he’s not pro-ready, but in New Orleans he doesn’t have to be with Brees in place for at least 2016.

Sheldon Rankins has often been mocked here and could still be in play for the Saints if they decide to wait on a quarterback. A name to keep in mind, based on what a scout in New Orleans told me, is Ole Miss defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche.

Who the **** is Matt Miller and what the **** does he know? It's already been pretty much established that we did NOT make a try for Goff this year. If we draft a QB with our first pick this year, I'm going to start rooting for the Browns. At least they aren't even pretending to be a contender. QB? ****! Really?

Anyone have any more coffee???

If Paxton Lynch is the pick; I think he sits behind Drew this year and is the starter when Drew is not re-signed in 2017. That would give us 50 some-odd million in cap space...

He's no different than any other draft expert. They are all the same making guess work on what will happen

Bleacher Report's NFL Draft Lead Writer, Matt's work has been featured in the last three Madden video games, on ESPN, SiriusXM, NFL Network, CBS Sports Network, SI.com and USA Today as well as utilized by NFL, CFL and AFL teams. Matt was the secondary and special teams coordinator for the three-time league champion Joplin Crusaders of the Central Football League. Matt is also a member of the Pro Football Writers of America.

I'm guessing he knows more than about 95% of fans...

Paxton Lynch at 12?

I am still trying to wrap my mind around any of these guys in the top ten, ok maybe one. But Weitz? maybe round 2.

I would still take Cook all day over Weitz or Lynch

the rest of the draft I would be banging my head on the desk. back to drinking
