2017 NFL Draft Thread - **Please do not post spoilers during the Draft**

Absolutely.. nah

Fournette and cook are the only guaranteed first round guys

With how stacked RBs are in the draft guys are going get pushed down.. foreman and mccaffrey are next on that list

i was pretty wow'ed watching mixon, albeit i've only watched a handful of his games...

the mix of athleticism and ability to make plays from out the backfield is pretty special. i see some forte/bell in him. easily a better prospect than perine IMO..
 
Fedora says Trubisky still hasn't decided about entering the draft and won't make a decision until after the Sun Bowl. :rolleyes

dude gotta go at this rate.. too many times where these things have gone poorly

what yall think about these dudes skippin out on bowl games for draft prep?

- with mccaffrey now skipping out along with fournette
 
Here for skipping a meaningless bowl game. They've done all they can for their teams, now its time to prep for their dream job, aka the NFL. Coaches leave before bowl games for their new jobs, the players should get the same luxury.
 
coaches also get paid and can pick up and move freely, things unfortunately players cant do

Say Jaylon Smith went 5th overall. He'd get a fully guaranteed 4-yr, $23.5M deal. Wound up with a 4-yr, $6.5M ($4.5M guar) deal instead.

McCaffrey touched the ball 672 times via rush/rec last 2 years. Only 2 other Power 5 players had 550. Doesn't even include his 76 returns.

This quote from a veteran NFL personnel man sums it up pretty damn well regarding McCaffrey and Fournette (via @BruceFeldmanCFB).

Bruce Arians said it would concern him if a potential draft pick skipped bowl game. "It's a team sport." But, it'd be a case-by-case basis.

After seeing that number of touches for mccaffrey, I especially got zero issue with him skipping out

I got zero issue with any of these dudes doing it.. but with that level of workload, his coaches weren't do him any favors
 
So I'm supposed to put millions on the line for a meaningless bowl game and $0...?

Hell yeah. And Bruce Arians is a clown if he holds that against anyone.
 
What's good with Dalvin Cook? Saw a mock on Twitter (forgot whose) that had the Jets taking him :nerd:
 
Good enough that some like him more than fournette.. hit up YouTube

Him and fournette definitely going top 20.. but RB is super deep this year..
 
Wonder how Dalvin's shoulders check out at the combine. Has he has 2 or 3 surgeries?
 
I'm conflicted on wanting the 49ers to start over with a Watson, Trubisky, or Kizer choice....

Or going with BPA (maybe Garrett) and targeting a QB a bit later (Mahomes, Kayaa, Falk)
 
I think Kaaya & Njoku will go in the 2nd

Interested to see where Elder lands who was Miami's best player, height will definitely keep him out the first round.
