I love Oxford....made the drive many, many times...

I had a front row seat, though, right here in my home office...complete with NFLN commentary and you guys on the board...

Treadwell ran 4.65 and 4.62. Speed is not what makes him the best WR in the draft, though. He'll still be the first WR taken, and I hope its not to the Lions or Vikings (or Pack, obviously).

Tunsil is the #1 pick. Tennessee can't screw this up.

Nkemdiche is so gifted. Athleticism is off the charts. Someone will roll the dice in the 1st round.

I still dont think Nkemdiche makes it out of top 10, if he does bears should take him at 11.

I haven't seen a mock yet with Nkemdiche going top 10.  We all know of his issues but he didn't really put up the stats in his 3 years that are that impressive but that could be because he was most likely often double teamed. 

Treadwell will be the first WR taken but not in the same class as KWhite and Cooper.

I wouldn't risk the #11 on Nkemdiche. He has off the field concerns and on the field he disappears. On e commentator mentioned he was shut out one game by a TE.

Lots of differing opinions here. And the draft is a month away. Good Grief!

Ezekiel Elliott's dad: A 'beautiful thing' if Bears draft Ohio State RB

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/bears/ct-ezekiel-elliot-dad-a-beautiful-thing-if-bears-draft-ohio-state-rb-20160325-story.html#nt=oft01a-6li2

If he is there at #11, I could see the Bears drafting him there, not that I would prefer that.

I know that is not a need and I am a strong advocate of drafting defense, but I would be onboard with drafting Elliot over any qb in the first round

I used some new database for this one...Kyle Crabbe, or someone like that? It's pretty unrealistic, I'm thinking, but it's a beautiful thing if we could pull this one off...

Yeah, I say unrealistic is putting it mildly when you have a choice between Derrick Henry and A'Shawn Robinson in the 3RD ROUND!

And Jarren Reed in round 5.

This is the guy...

When I took Hargreaves in the 1st, he was 5th on the board, and both William Jackson and Sean Davis were ahead of him...

I strongly believe that site is nuts. Everybody believes that there will be 2 QBs coming off before 10, Cleveland and SF. And I don't see certain teams going for different players. The Jet pick is a joke. But then again, its not me doing the picking and I am not affiliated with the teams
