The Raiders have done pretty well....

*Stares at @Draft Crazy*

I give the Raiders a B+ right now. Pretty solid. I don't like Glaze as much where they took him but not an awful pick. Powers-Johnson seems like such a Raiders OL.

it’s has been good.

i could run the wash draft if i picked at #2 first 3 rounds.its almost chalk

Daniels ans/or Williams will bust. my guess is Daniels who said he wanted to be the best running QB. you know what there is zero of : old running QBs.

who was the last #2 QB to be good. a lot of busts. McNabb in the last 30 years. its ugly.

Elway should never have let Peters go.

No, you couldn't. ;)

DJ,

Not sure on Tampa. Guessing his inconsistent play maybe. Physically he should be long gone by now

odd pick on a dependent position with Gardner as your QB.
why another TE when they drafted one high last year?

i’m not high on first round TEs as everyone else is i guess. the draft history is just not there.

Raiders clearly felt Bowers was BPA and couldn't pass.

Mayer really didn't develop last year. Must not be too high on him and VERY high on Bowers it would appear.

I was a little surprised they took him but hard to argue him as a pure player.

sure i could. its not that hard. Claude will be doing this in a couple years. if you trust your board the first 3 rounds is not that hard.

the top 100 players
define you board rank players 1-100

define your needs quantified by attributes and weight the need.
provide similar needs for the other 31 teams

run 1000s of simulations and discuss a random set of simulations among the staff.

as the draft unfolds , find the simulations that match closely to the way the draft is falling to predict the next pack’s.

Glaze may have been a slight reach in the 3rd but I think they brought him as depth for the OL.

I think Mayer's foot injury could be worse than feared but even if he's healthy I hear Getsy likes to run a lot of 2 TE sets. And Bowers can play in the slot as well.

And he will be a beast.

Haven't been to McD's for breakfast in a while....cheese on that or just steak and egg?
Cheese and some kind of sauce and frilled onion. Actually really good.

Run a Pareto frontier simulation
80% of outcomes have been proven by 20% the causes. of those 1000s
of simulation 20 % will dictates 80% of what will happen. you could even run the simulations realtime as the picks come in.

coaches sit around and do
nothing anyways for most of the draft.

Put your big data guys to work and i would have 5-6 of these guys in my building.

I am really curious what kind of value the Broncos will get out of their late round picks. I think our roster still has a lot of holes and maintain the expectations in 2024 are or should be low. The late rounds can have a lot of value especially in a rebuild. It'll be an interesting day for sure.

Schefler, the greatest blocking TE EVER, sure looked OLD for just playing like three years ago. ;)
Was it that he looked old, or just that he looked plucked right out of 1983 ??

:D
