I'm surprised as well; surprised they could keep that many of them out of jail long enough to get drafted.
Ky Ky’s going to bomb, as in fail miserably. Kingsbury will be exposed. I’ll be happy to admit if I’m wrong, but I won’t be.
If/when he does fail, I'm convinced more than ever that the NFL is an entertainment league sometimes more than can-he-play-at-this-level league. Kyler's going to get paid big bucks and they'll sell jerseys and tickets like crazy because of all the hype. He's getting paid for the hype but I'm skeptical on the results equaling the hype....Maybe he'll be another Russell Wilson but I don't know...
Kyler went first. What was up with that outfit he had on? Looked more like he should do a dance routine to Sammy Davis Jr. singing The Candy Man than he did a football player. I need a beer to wash that vision away. Bosa at #2 was a good pick.
The difference between Wilson and Murray that no one mentions is intelligence. Russell is a smart dude. Kyler doesn't carry the same smart vibe. It's rumored that Murray scored a 22 on the Wonderlic. 25 is considered acceptable for an NFL QB.
A TE in the Top 10? A big fan of Hoskinson but no TE is worth Top 10. The prior 4 TE's drafted in the Top 10 show why you don't draft TE that high. Trade down a few spots.
C'mon. That was 13 years ago when the test was meaningless. Since then its been magically tranformed into the world's most reliable diagnostic tool.
For those in Harris County, we did not have an earthquake, it was rather Booker T Caldwell not turning over but spinning is his grave after Murray showed up in that outfit.
That, plus an inch or two and a whole bunch of toughness. Until I see otherwise (and I won’t), my take is that Murray is a rag doll who will crumble the first time he gets hit. And he will get hit because he doesn’t have a New England caliber OL to protect him. This is the Cardinals... Back to the intelligence take, Murray is oddly very awkward in the way he carries himself. It’s like he’s a high school star that is now a misfit. He seems to have grown up in a bubble. Some older fans on this board may remember Todd Marinovich. Very talented (and much bigger), Marinovich was groomed from a young age by his father to be a quarterback, whether he wanted to be or not. The kid flamed out with the Raiders after a stellar career at USC, and has struggled in life ever since. I actually like Kingsbury but his obsession with Murray may doom him before he can even get started.
Boyd will probably be taken today. CBs are worth a lot more than they used to be, and he's probably the 3rd/4th best option remaining. I'd be shocked if Omenihu got picked up today. For as much as the league loves edge rushers, he didn't get to play that position much in the 3-4 and he's more of a reliable backup type. LJ and GJ will probably go Day 3 if they're fortunate.
I'm about the same height as Murray and if I'm about to become a multi-millionaire you can take your lame humor about my height and shove it up your ***.
