Where do I find the thread to chat about picks in? ;)

You're there but it's dead.

Prolly because it's TGIF.
I think originally, it was this thread. But now Nos is thinking about changing the title to "DJ's really high thoughts about the NFL draft.. among other things"

So who are the biggest 'risers' and 'fallers' in this draft?

I had Ricky Pearsall as a riser as a mid to late 2nd rounder but I'm kind of expecting him to get drafted in the 30s based on various lists Im seeing on the internet now.

I'm guessing Tvondre Sweat might drop to rd4. Maybe rd5. The DT class seems pretty deep so its not too wise to have some very questionable decisions.
i’m not sure he drops that far imo. Probably 3rd

I think Sweat is the obvious faller. JaTavion Sanders is another after slow 40.

Xavier Worthy, Max Melton (which sucks because he was my sleeper after the season, and Kingsley have been climbing.

Weirdly, I think Kingsley had a pretty average combine for someone at the top of the freaks list. Its just that the demand for OTs is so high I think he has a shot at rd1.

Brandon Coleman is a name to keep an eye on as a riser. Know his agent well and his stock is really climbing right now.

Would love to see Worthy, Mitchell or Troy Franklin on the Bills.

To be clear, I am not rooting for every other AFC team to grab kicker in the 1st. It makes too much sense for Worthy to fall to KC BUT I’m not sure he is the best fit with the Rice uncertainty

Of those three, I'll take Mitchell. I think Worthy is too one dimensional and Franklin is very slight.
Worthy one dimensional is the biggest myth in the draft, IMO. Sure, size has some limitations but he is way more than a speed WR. Been a huge fan of him since his FR year. The size is obviously an issue but he is more then just a one trick pony. He is a legit WR with speed.

One dimensional is a bit harsh, but that size makes him a bit of a niche WR. If Buffalo was just adding a weapon to an already stocked WR corps, sure. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

Yeah I think when most see a guy run a ridiculous 40 they just think he is a one trick pony. I’m not saying he is comparable to the top of the top of this class but he can be a PB level WR if he goes to a good organization. I think if he goes to a bad organization that could drop his potential. I don’t want to see him in KC…I don’t want to see him go to a legit AFC squad

Oh no I get it. With the loss of Diggs I agree that Buffalo is probably looking for a different type of WR. Still... take this as a compliment. I find myself rooting for the Bills recently and would like to see them add players I like.

Agree! I don't even mind him in the AFC since my team isn't going to do anything anytime soon but I don't want him in KC. I will cry if he ends up in Kansas City. Sorry Clayton but you get where I am coming from. I have a hunch he won't but still as my favorite player in the draft I can't bare to see it actually happen.

Be unhappy since they burned a 3 on a back last year and signed pollard
Yeah, I agree. If the Titans go RB, it would be day 3 for depth. Maybe someone with some power to fill out the RB corps.
