I'm sad he's leaving.

Probably TB. I have a feeling they're going all in on this year.

Madden curse starts early this year.

Falcons tried to trade up for Chase Young.

I always wonder about these rumours. Especially given the lack of details. Like, what did ATL offer? Their #16 and a 3rd?

That probably wouldn't be enough.

There is some history with Falcons GM Dimitroff making a big trade up in the draft. They went from 27 to 6 in a trade with the Browns to take Julio Jones, great trade for the Browns by the way... So i don't think its outta the question, but a 3rd wouldn't be nearly enough.

Catt what do you feel is fair trade deal for Trent Williams? Interested what a Skins fan thinks. I know they wanted a #1 last year but i'm pretty sure that's not happening.

I'd give a 3rd this year and a 3rd next year. And that next years 3rd needs conditions, like he needs to play 12 games or else that 3rd goes to a 6th or something like that. I don't think the Skins have much leverage right now, he doesn't wanna be there and he's got health problems.

Definitely a #1 + some lower round depending on which #1.

This is so interesting, because i'm sure you're thinking like the Skins front office while i'm thinking like any potential trade suitors are. While i can certainly undestand the Skins saying, "he a proven pro-bowl left tackle you can plug in day one and there will be nobody better you can put in right away that will match his play"

But then i see other teams going, "Well, he's 32, hasn't played a full 16 games in quite a few years and his contract is enormous. Not to mention he won't play for you guys so you can sit on him and get nothing if you wish"

Very interesting, but i don't see any 1st rounders going for him. There may be 4 tackles taken in the top 10 tonight, why not just take the young guy? But i'd certainly like Trent as the Browns tackle even though there are some red flags there.

I'm enjoying the free advertising for OSU Football during this draft.

If Chase Young busts, you owe me money, or something. At least, nudes.

SEC got 3 of the top 5 picks. That's the headline :)

So, correct me if I'm wrong, but top 5, this has pretty much gone as expected.

Please let Isiah Simmons be there at 10.. then trade for Trent. I’d consider the draft a home run

For the last time I will not send you nudes!

Chase Young won't bust.

I think that 4th pick was the right position, but the player chosen was a surprise.

Nope.
