8 (40) Dolphins - Koa Misi, DE/OLB, Utah

Crap, Misi has been flying up from the 4th and 3rd round projections. I really like him as a 3rd-down rush linebacker. Plus, I love Koa wood, I even have a stainless steel and Koa wood ring.

It’s like I moved to the Reachy neighborhood, of Reachieville, Reach State, in the United States of Reacherton. Which is great for the Packers.

The Broncos are up in about five picks. Maybe they can snag Clausen. They need another QB.

Wow. The Raiders traded with Tampa Bay moving back in the 3rd round and picking up an extra 5th rounder from the Bucs.

Maybe the Raiders pick up Clausen here? Or Jacoby Ford.

Am I the only one who thinks that there are certain GMs who make contrary picks to just show how much “smarter” they are. And then one of thier 5 reaches becomes a player and they say, “See told you so”.

Yup. I love Golden, but he’s going to be a 40+ reception slot receiver at best. Just way too small. I thought he was too small for D1, but his speed made up for it - that’s gone in the NFL. The true NFL WR from the Irish will be in next year’s draft.

My husband’s question was “Did Jimmy Clausen show up at the combine with a crack pipe?”

I dunno, something’s happening.

Apparently this was the Millen theory. Millen would always come out and say they saw and know some things that nobody else did.  
I want to puke. I said his name. Twice.

He’s fine, I guess. To me it’s another huge reach to fill a position of need. The more teams that do that, the better for us.

Is there anyone Maycock doesn’t like? According to him, everybody is a first round talent.
