I'm ok with that if it's only a few spots...we are already picking at the end of the 2nd...there will be lots of good players still on the board in the morning with 1st round grades.

Giants somewhat redeemed themselves with the Baker pick though.

I just don't like the knock on him that he doesn't tackle. I don't know from watching him.

LOL no Greedy Williams, DK Metcalf, Drew Lock or Jawaan Taylor in the first round. Those are all guys thought to be top half of the 1st round players. With every year that goes by I realize more and more that nobody knows anything about what’s going to happen in the draft. The speculation is such a waste of time.

We’ve had too many of those on the team over the years.

Big reach. Most big boards had Lindstrom anywhere from 32 to 52. They must've seen something in him that others didn't.

Starting to really respect Coach Dan Quinn. When you see your guy there, you've got limited resources to spend in Free Agency with those linebackers coming up on veteran contracts - you check off a big position of need...

No one probably offered adequate compensation at that point; and once you give it up like a ***** in trade as Loomis, you're stuck with that reputation and I'm sure that all factored into the selection...

Is it a reach, yes. But was it that much a reach? No.

Guess the pressure of replacing Khalil Mack was too great for the Raiders, I wouldn't have passed on Devin White...

Have my doubts about Bruce Arians after choosing to stick with crab claws at QB, buttaking White tells me that he's not an idiot either. He just may be having a bad case of Coach's Challenge...

I'll tell you this - I wished Sean Payton would have to face the media firestorm for his draft gaffes that Dave Gettleman is going to be facing if Daniel Jones is a complete flop...

No reason with the league's all-time passer to have just one Superbowl trophy in that time...

Looks like it was total horsesh*t about the Vikings moving up to select Andre Dillard - guess it worked because they selected Garrett Bradley...

Surprising Risk because although he's a stand-out athlete, I don't know that he's got the sand to be a dominant NFL lineman...
