I have to say, I've come quite close to @ ing the Cleveland GM on numerous occasions when the Giants were up.

I'm still convinced that buffalo_guy is the Bills and not the Saints but I don't think I've publicly fucked that one up yet lol

lol, both @Buffalo_Guy and @Giants56Ravens52 and @Cowboysfan1 are friends of mine off the board and recruits for the game. They both new me in my past life.

I used to go to the Giants Redskins games with Giants56Ravens52 and we would bet who ever lost had to wear the other teams colors. I was wearing Blue a lot more then he was wearing Burgundy.

Tyree Jackson has among the more putrid mechanics I've seen. His back leg has a tendency if whipping and leaving the ground during the follow through of the throwing motion, meaning he's more depending on torquing his upper body to generate throw power instead of having it come from his base. But I did find myself marveling at his best throws. I am hoping that because he's mostly self-taught, that a full-time regimen with quality coaching could fix his issues. I think he's less likely than likely to make good on his talents. But that's because his talent is honestly somewhat wild.

I forgot to give my thoughts on this earlier, but I think Jackson is a good pick at this juncture. There's a whole hell of a lot wrong with him but you absolutely cannot teach that arm talent or mobility. I'm all about taking chances like guys like that late. I think he'll be overdrafted in real life, but this is probably appropriate value. He was on my board but a little further down, so there was a chance he could have been my pick since my board has been killed lately lol.

The delivery is all sorts of funky, and I think he's more likely to end up being a Josh Freeman vs. a Joe Flacco (with more mobility in both cases), but the hope that he could turn into something like the latter is worth a chance.

Nice Pick @RavensPunkXVX, he was next on my draft board

Considering the injury prone Reed and older
Davis. Wasn’t really considering a TE but is also a good blocker. Will be nice on the line with Guice running.

Was looking at a potential return specialist/special teams/WR sleeper but decided to stick with TE.

Was thinking LB too until I saw Foster was eligible this year. Doesn’t say much but it’s a body. Lol

I think Moreau is being highly underrated

I hope y'all appreciate the fact that I woke up in the middle of my sleep to make that pick.

In all seriousness, after many rounds of evaluating LBers, I finally pulled the trigger on one. I think this draft class at LBer is generally pretty awful, so I refused to reach for a guy just to fill out some depth. Tavai is one of the few I actually like this year. He's a bigger guy but still has that sideline to sideline range. I figured at the absolute worst case, I have a top tier STer. I think he can absolutely be a starter though, and very early in his career.

In real life if the Patriots get Tyree I may kill myself - Tyree Jackson with a few years watching Brady with "real" coaching has a ceiling of Patrick Mahomes - of course he also has a floor of Cardale Jones

Looks like we might hit a wall with the Saints... @Buffalo_Guy hasn't been on since the 31st. Any insight @RavensMania?

The Saints have 4 picks in this draft and I have the e-mail alerts setup - didn't have a reason to really logon to be informed

Also I use the Big Board Google Sheet to keep track of the draft and update my draft board - If you could see how much I log onto that :-)

@RavensPunkXVX Thanks for helping out with the Skins this year. Maybe next year you can play the game from the Forum Mock from the start

Also you have one more pick. 2nd to last pick in the 7th round. I can trade you a depth RT Erik Magnuson for that 7th round if you'd like.
