    I think the cost to move up to top 3 would be too much. But damn, that would be something special

    Bowers is another dream scenario

    Better hope some teams fall in love with Penix and McCarthy and push Bowers down a little.

    If you draft Bowers, you don't have to sign Schultz. Although I feel like Schultz would come back fairly cheap.

    Bowers shouldn’t rule out Schultz. Bowers is a different type of TE, more of a weapon. Can lineup at WR, TE and RB

    Coleridge and Love had an almost identical stat-line. 2 more yards for Stroud.

    Bowers is going to go 6 - 8? Too high for me. Talent aside, I'm not convinced he can stay healthy in the NFL.

    Harrison has injuries too. You still take them, that’s two all world talents.

    Not that we have enough to move up for them

    Hey, I had serious reservations about taking Stingley at 3 due to his injury history, and look at us now...So, there ya go. What do I know?

    He killed some no good guy in his neighborhood who was causing problems. That is why the cops didn't really try to solve the case, and no one in the neighborhood wanted to testify.

    Dallas defense was disgustingly bad. Never seen so many wide open blown coverage plays.

    I'd go CB, S, LB, O-Line, or even RB (if one worthy of a first round grade was here) before looking at WR in the first round.

    Well, I would normally agree, but after what we pulled off last year I'm not so sure cost matters as much getting what you want.

    It could possibly happen that Bowers falls out of the top 10. No chance he falls out of the top 15.

    Draft to the strength of the draft. Adding a star level WR would make the offense virtually unstoppable. You dont want to give Stroud the best weapons possible? I want to add the things you want in FA.

    Trading up from 22 to 15 is a whole lot cheaper than to 3 or even 10.
