Jack and Spence? Still sporting wood?

Just did a lil' study and write up on Hunter Henry... really promising, big TE who can actually block as well as catch.

On another note... De'Runnya Wilson is falling hard. Picking him in Round 3 once graded as an "A-"... not no more...

Cant say ive seen Wilson that early ever....I just pick him because I like his size in the late rounds....another Mayle?....probably

And yeah....Im all in with a good QB at 2.....but will spend another year bemoaning all the LB's we didnt get....HA!

You know I love Jack.....and the more I watch, OSU's Darron Lee is looking better and better.....man....

And dropped a comment on the your TE post....Henry looks awesome, but I dont want one that early....so Im crushing on Higbee right now

Normally I hate homerism, but there's a lot of good OSU players at various stages of the draft this year. And that draft - Bosa & Elliott alone even - would be almost transformational.

A lot of good OSU players coming out this year....heck, I didnt even pick a few of my favorites ...Lee, Perry, Apple and Washington.....all projected as early rounders

Makes you wonder how a team would do if it picked just them. With Barrett next year at QB (who is a better prospect than jones IMO), along with whoever else is coming around.

Whatever happened to Raekwon McMillan (I think?) - he was a 5* recruit that joined last summer. Obviously not coming out this year or next, but did he play much? Redshirt?

Yeah, he played a good bit...was nothing spectacular, but solid.....should see a lot more of him next season

Seems like he would have taken over from Shazier?

Raekwon was one of the best LBs in the B1G and him Barrett and one of the OLmen were already named captains for next year. Next year hes draft eligible.

It would be interesting to see what people would do with the free agency portion of the offseason included as well, and there's a sim for that...somewhere!

Look at this shit. Even the EXPERTS agree with me. Offensive linemen are horse shit, dime-a-dozen lard asses.

I drafted all Joe Thomases and look at the fucked up score I got - 2655 D-

Your score is: 2655 (GRADE: D+)

Your Picks:

Round 1 Pick 2: Jack Conklin, OT, Michigan State (C+)

Round 2 Pick 1: Cody Whitehair, OG, Kansas State (

Round 3 Pick 2: Joey Hunt, C, TCU (F)

Round 4 Pick 1: Fahn Cooper, OT, Ole Miss (C-)

Round 5 Pick 2: Caleb Benenoch, OT, UCLA (F)

Round 7 Pick 2: Marcus Henry, C, Boise State (F)

HOWEVER................ the good news? All seven of these lard asses will be going to the fucking Hall Of Fame.

So first step...

SIGNED PLAYERS

Name Position Cap Hit

Travis Benjamin WR 4,200,000 - 6m per year

Mitchell Schwartz T 4,400,000 - 8m

Tashaun Gipson S 6,300,000 - 9m

Malik Jackson DE 4,900,000 - 7m

Von Miller OLB 7,425,000 - 13.5m

The cap hit doesn't reflect what I offered them - Von Miller was $13.5m per year, 40% guaranteed, for example, not sure how they ended up with that.

CUT

Name Position

Paul Kruger OLB

Jim Dray TE

Andrew Hawkins WR

Johnny Manziel QB

Taylor Gabriel WR

Dwayne Bowe WR

Now to the draft part. Clearly still need a QB, and some WRs!

Your score is: 8696 (GRADE: A+)

Your Picks:

Round 1 Pick 2: Jared Goff, QB, California (A+)

Round 2 Pick 9 (NYG): Michael Thomas, WR, Ohio State (A-)

Round 3 Pick 2: Kenny Clark, DT, UCLA (A+)

Round 3 Pick 8 (NYG): Emmanuel Ogbah, DE, Oklahoma State (A+)

Round 4 Pick 1: Scooby Wright III, ILB, Arizona (B-)

Round 5 Pick 2: Maliek Collins, DT, Nebraska (A+)

Round 6 Pick 1: Bralon Addison, WR, Oregon (A+)

Round 7 Pick 2: DeAndre Washington, RB, Texas Tech (A-)

I would wet myself with excitement if that draft happened, but I suspect not. Kenny Clark and Emmanuel Ogbah won't last until the third round, and Scooby Wright looks likely to go on day 2 somewhere, but still, that's what the sim gave me.

Great moves Chris. But sure would love to see that C or G in 3rd to move Grego over to C or keep Erving out of C? I see a lot of DT being drafted but Lava Lava I trust is our future if used properly?

I would agree with this too.....except, if Im understanding it correctly?.....$6m per year to Benjiman and $9m per year to Gipson seems outrageous....and would be way overpaying....

Otherwise, Im down....

Just a little fly in the ointment. Von will get a minimum of $14mil if the Broncos franchise him, which they will do if no contract is signed by the last day to franchise.
