Draft and current staff analysis ...
Seems made for this thread, so copied it over....
Some interesting, potentially disturbing grades and misc. stuff in article...
Offense first...
- "West Coast/Power"... a name for Hue's O... I guess it works.
- Britt's score of 67.8 made him the 40th ranked WR out of 155, but Coleman's "close" score of 65.6 only ranked him 67th? Says there is a very tight pack of WR in the 2nd quartile.
- Bito's 4/78 ranking surprises me a bit to the high side...
- ... but not as much as Zeitler's 21/78 did to the low side. Our prize FA is only 2nd quartile? Just ahead of Greco at 22nd?
- Zeitler's price does make Tretter, our 11/38 FA-Center, look like a bargain.
D-side...
- Ogbah ranked 6 of 53 DEs... I knew he came on late, but did not see him that high.
- Our big trade-acquisition/resign, Collins, is ranked at the bottom of the top third of OLBs.
- Kirsey's middle-of-the-pack ranking seems low... and their "will never be a top ten MLB" prognosis feels harsh, but a certain BAMA ILB pushing him to OLB would still not piss me off.
- Pretty well nailed our 2ndary...
And then there's their Cam comment:
First-round draft picks will get every chance possible to prove they can't play. Despite Erving's having major struggles at left tackle while at Florida State, which sparked the move to center, he will make the move to right tackle and compete with Coleman.
How he ranked 33rd out of 38 Centers is beyond me.... but then at FSU he was not the worst OT prospect I looked at that year. He was the 2nd worst ranking 9th out of the 10 OTs I reviewed.

According to Emmett golden from espn 850, Kessler is the hardest worker on the team. At least there won't be any of the what-if/ if-only crap we had with Manziel. Cody is going to get everything he can out of his physical talents. Knowing that Cody is putting the work in and doing everything he can to be successful will make it easier to determine where he stands in comparison with whats needed from the QB position. I say let Cockwhistler back up Kess while Kizer/Dobbs holds the clipboard.

I can live with that...
Who knows... we might even develop some QB capital in the process.
