The Official Round 1 Draft Thread

[inkfreq]

I have to wonder if Ray Farmer texted that pick to his staff.

But if we took at 23, for example, we'd get the pick in the 2nd round, 53 or maybe a sup.. No benefit imo.

That's why I was saying 2nd round. I would gamble a second round pick on a 1st round talent. We'd get a 3rd rounder next year (if the NFL comps us for his indictment) and probably a 3rd round comp pick for suh and another high one for Fairley. We'd be loaded with high picks.

Not sure. Hard to say how the NFL views that.

Remember, they refused to give Kraft a break against the cap for Hernandez too.

That was terrible by the league though. Should have voided the contact.

I agree. But with that in mind.. would they award us a comp pick if our pick went to jail? Doubtful.

They won't comp. gaines Adams died and bears got nothing

Agholor?????

Wow... too early. Not by much, but there are better WRs on the board.

Kelly is trying to get fired, that's all I can figure.

But, Gaines was already signed and had been playing.

Not signing a draft pick is different. I agree though, they aren't likely to comp.

No you can't risk an early pick on the kid. 5th 6th sure but his stock should be ruined. If he's clean its a shame but there's to many question marks at this point. Because you have some information and know it's possible.

Getting close..

but he was signed. If a pick goes unsigned, you get a pick the next year to make up for it. Like Ink said, it has to be the player's decision not to sign, but I think if he was indicted before we signed him, we might get a pick.

...to being disappointed for the second year in a row.

 

[LKP]

Collins would sign during the conjugal visit

Oh I hope not.

Gotta give him credit, much like mcdaniels in Denver they are living and dying with their own method. Agholor would not have been my selection this early but he's an interesting prospect.

Don't think so bud. Too many options here not to be happy with the pick. They can go in about 8 different directions, or a trade down, and still be good.

I'd take Shane Ray in a heartbeat

More dying than living. Sooner or later, Chip is going to have to draft outside of the Pac-12. Only so many years you can make it knowing the players. They graduate sometimes.

They are set up nicely. I'd like a trade back.

 

[cheeno]

My mock has always said Humphries. But my heart says Dupree.

 

[Monster]

Well, even if they wouldn't comp us, we lose a late second round pick this year. We'll still get at least 1 3rd round comp pick next year to help make up for it. I think the reward is much greater than the risk.
