@paRAYdise Good pick in Witherspoon. I was on the fence between him, Gonzalez and another player. Went for Gonzalez for his work on the boundaries, especially with Philadelphia losing Brandon Graham, Javon Hargrave, T.J. Edwards and James Bradberry. But I strongly, strongly considered Witherspoon, whom could end up being better than Gonzalez.

I don't think you could go wrong with either Gonzalez or Witherspoon, Truth. You guys both made great picks.

Witherspoon is one of my favorite players in the draft. Love his physicality and playmaking skills. Think he's going to have a really good future in the NFL.
 
That was a tough decision, had several players in mind but ultimately settled on Branch. He is versatile, a great tackler, plays all over the field and just feels like a Patriots DB. I can see him making an impact in the slot right away and also developing as a Safety for the future. Might be a bit earlier than a lot of people see him go or have him on their board, but I think he is worthy of that pick!
 
Also not to be that guy, but pace is slow out of the gate so I'll give the usual reminders...

1. Start trade conversations early. No problem using a little time to see if something comes to fruition, but the 12 hours is largely to allow people to get on... not run the clock.

2. Pay attention to when you're up and pass on boards if you won't be around. We're lucky enough to have some overseas members who can handle the late hours for us here stateside and get us on a run, and vice versa of course.

I know we started on a Saturday and weekends are slow in general, so just a PSA as we really get into the heat of it :)

party pooper!

no fully understandable, I forgot to hand over my board as well.
So lets get things going!
 
Hate the idea of giving up Ogbonnia Okoronkwo. He's quietly been terrific for two years as one of the league's more efficient pass rushers, especially during the second half of last year. Was a menace as a wide-9. But positional value be damned, Bijan Robinson is one of my favorite prospects in this class. Strongly considered him for Philadelphia and had to make the jump to ensure I he goes to Buffalo. I'm still a fan of Cook, drafted him last year. But Robinson should make it even tougher to put a spy on Josh Allen.
