Wasted draft pick. You only own the rights for one year. He isn't quitting baseball before draft day 2008.

Tavaris Bain (sp?), is a real intriguing CB. From what I've read he has first round type physical atributes, he transfered from Miami to a small school.

He's kind of hard to scout because of the competition, but his skills are enticing. I like these kind of guys with late round picks.

Yeah, I like using these and Goose's top 100 when looking at who we draft.

Of course, I also know not to overvalue these charts because often players like Patrick Crayton, Pat McQuistan, etc., aren't even listed and some of those second-day values prove they should have received first-day consideration.

Am I reading this chart right?

Does his chart say there are only 15 players with 1 RD grades and only 15 with second RD grades???

I don't get it. Maybe I'm just having brain cramps.

You have to scroll down to see the defense.

LOL! Duh, you'd think someone would notice they were all offensive players.

So yes, it was a brain cramp.

Rating Merriwhether over Nelson destroys their credibility IMO...

Maybe, or maybe some NFL people see Meriweather as a more complete prospect. I'm not saying that's what happened, but I think a reasonable case can be made for Meriweather being considered the better value.

A case can always be made, but I actually followed these guys through high school ball and in college......Nelson is just better, plain and simple

It is interesting to note that PFW's ranking of prospects regardless of position doesn't quite match up with its value board ... although their feelings about Meriweather and Nelson appear to be the same.

Pittman and Rice look like good value picks for R3.

Leak is R6....

[Tristan]

If there weren't concerns about Merriweathers character then I think he would be right there with Nelson, some teams would probably prefer Merriweather due to his versatility and upside.

I personally love Merriweather and think he is exactly the kind of player our secondary needs, great speed and ball skills, with the ability to play center field or corner. I admit Miami is my favorite college team, but I honestly think he is the next special Miami DB, if he has his priorities straight.

man, Rice would be incredible in the second round.
