    So #2 is the same as #1 now?

    I said that he was #1 on many or most lists. It was always a back and forth between he and Tunsil for the #1 spot.

    And "the thing" is the Play the Draft board that is primarily based on Mocks... which you have previously said are not BPA lists.

    OK, whatever....it was still a source you cited.

    Kiper just dropped Bosa to 6th on his Big Board IIRC... I believe McShay dropped him as well.

    Links......?

    Draft Scout just dropped him to 3rd...

    http://www.nfldraftscout.com/members/ratings/top750.php?draftyear=2016&sortby=rateall&order=ASC

    Did they drop him....or is that just where they have had him.

    Point ultimately being.....he is still by far considered a better prospect than the QBs....who are far more questionable. And the Browns do need an edge rusher.

    Dropped... he was #2 behind Tunsil prior to the Combine.

    Point being you are not looking at recent data... check the links Mud supplied.

    That analysis of Buckner that said his pad level gets too high and he gets "crushed" by angle blocks, that's exactly what I saw in his tape....so i'm not blowing it out my ass when I said Buckner's got more work ahead of him than Bosa. I can't project years out, I jus know Bosa's fundy's are there "now".

    I may have to sue for royalties. I feel my Goff v Wentz argument has been sullied by DE name substitution.

    For anyone that puts stock into 40 times for defensive line... sure.

    Top 5 broad jump, 1.96 10 yard split, took home tops 3 cone drill and 20 yard shuttle. Indicate he's got some explosiveness to his step.

    Couple things...

    1. Again... Combine numbers are just useful in confirming what the tape showed.
    2. It's not where someone places in their draft class that matters; it's the actual numbers.

    Of Joey's numbers his sub-7 3-cone was most impressive to me. Very nice agility for a man of his length let alone weight. But his shuttle, bench reps and broad were all OK.

    Fortunately for you his 10-yd split was not 1.96., but 1.68 (Semi-dyslexic?) and 1.68 is very good.

    His vertical was a sub-standard 32". It failed to confirm his "burst". Combined with his 40 time it sent his evaluators back to their tape.

    Thanks for the correction on the split -

    Typing from my phone and I'm not sure how I messed that up. I wish I had more time to sit

    down, better articulate my responses and invest some time in the board again. But it's busy season for me, sadly.

    Tastes like victory.

    I like the united front on this board to make one singular poster realize Bosa isn't the top prospect. Feel like we haven't been this united in a long time...

    If anyone is stubborn enough (outside the political section) to unite everyone against their ignorance it is he.

    I may have to sue for royalties. I feel my Goff v Wentz argument has been sullied by DE name substitution.

    why would your analysis of goff v wentz include phrasing such as "pad level" and "angle blocks"? You thinkin maybe some next level shit that we draft Goff/Wentz as OLB'er? Mind blown if that's where you're going....gonna have to look at some more pac west games if it is. lols

    While on that subject, if we're keeping JFF on the roster for the year, maybe we can try him at RB? Slot receiver?

    "Arm angle" close enough?
