Rounds 2 & 3

[Dutch Oven]

Browns have three 4th rounders to start tomorrow.

Hopefully they get after the DLine, maybe an OLine developmental guy

Vegas than KC

Yes it was TBD and then it was given back to Vegas again.

The NFL announced the locations for the 2021 and ’23 drafts on Wednesday, which now sets this future rotation:

2020: Las Vegas
2021: Cleveland
2022: TBA..... Vegas
2023: Kansas City

"Anthony Swartz met/will meet virtually with the Patriots/Seahawks/Steelers/Jets/Chargers/Colts/Saints/Titans"

and who drafts him?

BROWNS !!!!!!!!

I'll give you credit it does make the Draft more interesting !   Good luck.

I assume you’ll be late for your own funeral 

[Tour2ma]

Could someone else quote LB's post with all his pics of his betting stubs...

... I'm trying to build up my scrolling muscles.

WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!

He is the guy I wanted them to take in round one.     This guy is a torpedo.  LIke a Cobra Missile. 

As I commented to my pal.a guy with safety+ speed that plays LB.  Guy who can cover wrs over the middle. Any comparisons to Dick Butkus are hallucinations. And he did win the Butkus award.

Dude there are a bunch of centers on the board. A bunch. They love Meinerz. You act like the Steelers are a shit show on the offensive line. 

Because they are...  Draft a guy who shows some talent to be a center, Pouncey- he ain't. We should start a pool on which game Ben goes on IR....

The GOAT for Cinci's pick...

Yep. Anthony is certainly on the Mount Olympus of LTs...

WOOOOOO!!! 

We got BOTH the guys I wanted at 26.

I am fucking ecstatic 

Me too (JOK first, then Newsome, ). When we took Newsome, that was fine, but I just KNEW JOK was out of the picture. I figured he would go VERY early in the 2nd, but teams drafting for need plus some not knowing how to use JOK, allowed him to drop to where Berry trade slightly for one hell of a bargain. That man has nerves of steel.

GO BROWNS!!!

I believe he said the Browns were his 1st interview. I don't know how soon & how much they will utilize him, but his presence & speed will really open things up underneath.

The replacements aren’t on the roster yet. 
 

Schwartz ain’t that guy 

Walterfootball:  "4/26/21: Schwartz flashed at times in 2020, but the Auburn offense struggled to get in rhythm. Schwartz could be a competitive slot receiver in the NFL. He has dangerous speed and could end up being a better pro than college player. "

Sometimes there is a reason why a player does not stand out before the draft. It may have little to do with the player. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/30512340/auburn-tigers-fire-coach-gus-malzahn-eight-seasons

Drafttek has him rated at #103 overall.

Ran out of emoticons but totally agree here. We needed more speed every down to take off the top of the D. Make those safeties afraid to come up too fast.

[Unsympathetic]

Perhaps the pool should be.. before or after Burrow

[Unsympathetic]

On one hand, he did catch 54 last season so he's not entirely one-trick. On the other, he had more rushing than receiving TD's at Auburn.

Yes, speed, but both our WR's "with speed" got injured last season.. hope he gets on an NFL strength&conditioning plan quick..

And to be clear, the #1 goal of legit athletic trainers is injury prevention.. strength gains are entirely secondary/coincidental.

Just out of curiosity,  if anyone knows.   What is the fastest  40 time ever recorded for an NFL prospect? 

@gumby73 said:

4.22..Bengals- John Ross

Bo Jackson  4.12 though he says electronically it was 4.13.

Huh? That's a recorded, verified time?

I saw him in the Cotton Bowl run an 80 yard screen for a TD against one of our fastest overall defenses. After he turned the corner at the 50 running laterally from the left to the right side, it took like 3 seconds to cross the goalline. Never seen anything like it in all my years of watching football until his TD tunnel run in the NFL. Put a cape on that man. I was high in the endzone that he ran towards on that play and I could see that sudden acceleration towards me when he turned that corner. Nobody in a football uniform can run that fast-but it damn sure happened.

Bo Jackson was an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime athlete. Without a doubt.

But he was not faster than Usain Bolt, and he was not .2 of a second faster than Willie Gault. 

Bo Jackson says silly things. What was the latest - that he'd run for 3000 yards in today's NFL?
