If you are going to duplicate positions we have covered I'd take
Mayfield at #8 if he were there. I'm hearing the SC and UCLA QBs
are going higher than Mayfield. Mayfield is way too good to pass
on like Garoppolo who SF got a steal on

Maybe. He'll also be in the East West Shrine game, so the guy
wants to put it on the field

I know we need receivers but I watched the Memphis bowl game and
they blanketed that Miller or whatever the WR's name was. There
are better WR's available

I'll say this. Pace blew it on White. He better not fail on the
next WR. And we sure need WRs....#1's. Maybe the new HC has a
better handle on who is a stud and who is a dud. Lets hope so

No way am I advocating actually drafting and keeping Barkley,
but my intent is to generate interest from maybe the Seahawks or
the 49ers to trade with us. Right now I like a trade down at 8
and Barkley could be an Elliott or Gurley playmaker type.
No way does Pace or any GM take a Mayfield or Rosen or Darnold
even if they slip to 8.
I don't know how anyone could criticize Pace for taking White.
He was ranked right where he was picked. If he was healthy and
turned out to be a dud then it was bad scouting. But White
played 23 games at West Virginia and had nothing close to the
injuries he's had with the Bears.

I would rather go after a true number 1 through trade or free
agency. You cannot expect to draft and have a receiver play
like a 1 the first year. Sure, it happens, but it is the
rarity. Shuster Smith is the only receiver I think that is
playing like a first round choice from last years draft and
every team passed on him in the first round.
Not sure who is available in trade, but Jarvis Landry would
check the box for me.
White was rated a high first round choice and unfortunately it
did not work out. Hoping he is getting by this curse!

And did you see what Memphis’s D did to Courtland Sutton?
Judging a guy on one game is beyond dumb.

Thats why they have the combine. It tends to sort out the good
from the bad. Lets hope the new coaching staff figures that out
and we draft better.

And I didnt think any GM would take a QB in the top ten last
year and it happened. If you are betting your life nobody takes
a QB this year in the top 8 you are a dead man walking. The QBs
are better quality this year than last year. I would believe in
$3 bills with Obama pics on them before no QBs before #8. Per
the line in the commercial, "Oh its happening sweetheart."
