At one point in time, I thought he'd be a first-round pick. He's not productive enough, he's up and down, he flashes. He's got that huge frame. I put him in the second round to Oakland. Somebody in the second round is rolling the dice. If you ask me where he grades out, he doesn't grade out that high. Because you want that guy inside that makes more plays, makes more of an impact and maximizes that ability on a game-to-game basis. That's not a Gabe Watson. I'd say second round and a roll of the dice pick. |
Every team isn't interested in the Super Bowl. You have 30 [other] teams with all their fans. The draft process affects all 32 teams. If you want to get to the Super Bowl, these are the days to do it. |
He's looked at as being light. But he definitely has the frame to add more weight. |
He's very much like a Shannon Sharpe-type of player. When you look at his pass-catching ability, it's unbelievable. But now, blocking is something that he needs to develop. |
Historically running backs drop and you can get some bargains. Gerald Riggs Jr. I think would be a nice pick very late in the draft. |
I decided in my junior year that there was a market for this type of thing. I love the analytical and scouting aspect of it. Back in those days before full-fledged free agency, the draft was the only way a team could improve from one year to the next. |
I think he goes in the late first [round]. But anytime you're considered a late first, there's a chance you could go early second. I think he's a late first, but it wouldn't shock me if he went early second. |
I think that makes a lot of sense. For the type of scheme they play, he would be perfect for what they need. |
I think this is a pretty good draft class overall. It's really shaping up that way because of the underclassmen. Usually, they're the key factor in whether a draft is good or not. It's very deep at a lot of positions. |
If this was a year where you didn't have a Reggie Bush or the quarterbacks, he would be No. 1. At [No. 2], nobody is going to question the pick of Mario Williams. |
More power to them. Bring them all on. |
Teams still prioritize corner. When you think of all the wide receivers drafted, like Detroit taking a wide receiver (in the first round) three years in a row, you need corners to match up and not just one or two, you need three. |
They'll all be picked by 40. |
They've been aggressive with Andy Reid. Maybe they move up a couple of spots. I can't speak for them, but at 14 if they feel insecure at getting Justice at that point, then they could jump ahead of either Detroit or Minnesota. |
This kid is unique. If he was just a running back who had mediocre hands, then he wouldn't be the No. 1 pick. He's the No. 1 pick because he's a superlative runner. |
