Have at it...anything you like? Or most likely...anything you hate? Anyone you think is a glaring miss that should have made it?

Feeney is good, but Lamp is better.

I like the CB from Fla, Wilson, more than Talbots's. In fact I believe he will be a better pro. Just my opinion

He is a better press man corner. And he apparently is not a dummy, like Tabor.

Just don't like him that much. Show me video where he beats OT's with a pass rush move or even just of him running the arc and bending around the corner to the QB. I said it in another thread, but he reminds me of Lawrence. Wouldn't mind him in the late 2nd, but I don't see him as a top 35 prospect.

He has some speed and bend. But it was interesting watching him versus Bolles of Utah. Fire up that footage.

Eventually, he had to switch sides to make an impact.

Definitely has a pretty good initial burst, but don't see him flattening out and bending around the corner like an elite pass rusher. Classic example of being pushed up draft boards because of position. He's at best the 6th best DE in this class, I don't think that warrants top 35 spot just because he's a pass rusher. That's why there are so many busts.

He will end up with a 3-4 team.

One game I watched he reminded me of K. Mack, all the other games have been less than inspiring to be kind. I was drinking the Kool Aid after that first game and am now fully recovered. Would have to be few other options available at 28 for me at this point in time. Nice list would have Howard TE near the end if I was to nitpick.

Some people on this board were saying that exact same thing about Bosa a year ago. Not saying you specifically, but that was a popular refrain with him as well.
Now I don't think McKinley is Bosa, but his motor and athletic ability are pretty impressive. My only worry about him is size and whether he is more suited in a 3-4. Not worried about his bend, he is plenty athletic enough.

Refreshing to see you don't have Chris Harris in your Top 35 either; I'm not impressed at all by his game.

Is Calen Brantley DT Florida too similar at the D3 position to MCollins.
I wouldn't mind a DT if his value is right
