2018 Draft Chatter

[Klingo3034]

That's surprising. Figure they try to get a QB. Or try to jump up.

If not going to get THE quarterback back you want, almost always better to trade back and get more picks if in the Top 5 IMO.

 

[Daygoboy6191]

I saw few rumors cowboys have spoken with packers already about if a certain player falls they’ll work a deal. Wonder for who.

I hope it's not for Ridley, and especially not if we can get Moore at 19 who I think is the better player.

 

[hendog86]

My guess would be Calvin Ridley. Picks 15 & 16 are WR needy teams, Arizona & Baltimore. As much as I want it to be Derwin, we’ve shown zero interest in him.

If we trade up for a WR....I'm not sure what I'll do but it won't be pretty!

He wants Baker Mayfield...or an olineman...so it makes some sense he would want to move back some.Mayfield at say pick 9 or 10 would be perfect.Likely what happens is they take the best olineman on the board. They are hurting badly at that position. Oline and CB/safety. QB is a need,but 3rd on the totem pole.

The Packers have the same requirement of a safety I thought, why would they let us take James?

   An athletic wonder on the defensive line, P.J. Hall put up numbers that rival the likes of J.J. Watt. He might need time to catch up on scheme and playing up to the NFL level after four years at FCS Sam Houston State, but he's a very versatile player who is comfortable and productive in many defensive techniques. He has recently been linked to the Atlanta Falcons and would be a great fit in their defense.
   
   
   
   GRADE: 6.00 (Round 3)
   
   PRO PLAYER COMPARISON: Sheldon Richardson, Minnesota Vikings

yncint Smith/WR/Limestone: Smith was a dominant small-school receiver whose ability to consistently win out for contested grabs really caught my eye on film the past two seasons. He comes with natural receiving skills and does the little things well. I questioned Smith’s speed, and he responded by timing 4.33 during South Carolina’s pro day, which he was invited to participate in. Smith must learn to play to that speed but has had official visits with the Houston Texans and New York Jets and was worked out by theDallas Cowboys. He’s another who could hear his name called during the late rounds of the draft.

if Raiders take Miller....the whole board for 19 changes....hope thats true.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Possibly one less team that would snag a WR in round 1.

Attempt at a guess: Smith/Edmunds/James/Vea.

Those are the only 4 players along with Nelson that I would consider trading up for but it would be small trade up. Our 1st, 4th, 6th

The chatter is that the Raiders would trade down from 10 to take Miller. However, La Canfora is claiming too that the Raiders like Kolton Miller but if they trade down they can't go back too far because he's hearing Miller will be off the board early, ahead of McGlinchey, because teams can't ignore Miller's skill set.

LOL. Fine by me. The more OTs that go before us, the better. But Miller as the top OT is foolish but typical Raiders who often fall in love with the tools and ignore the production.

 

[NeonNinja]

You have my approval, Raiders.

 

[gmoney112]

Miller is probably a smokescreen for the Smith leak

 

[Avery]

I wouldn’t be against moving out of the first entirely and getting three 2nd’s. Outside of the top 15, there’s a huge crop of talent that runs 40-50 deep.
