    Meyer third overall. Wow!

    Meyer could be real good but being 6 feet and from a cold weather state both seem like red flags.

    Mocks should never be looked at as anything more than a way to familiarize yourself with players available.

    Especially since some players are picked earlier than expected with under slot deals. It’s all about value when you have a cap amount to spend. The ability to save a few million on a early pick allows you to add 1-2 other prospects later on with over slot deals.

    Ok. No Meyer.

    Whatever happens just let the draft come to you and make the best pick. Someone nice will be there at 12.

    I disagree. Lot of times in the recent past Jim Callie, Kiley McDaniel, and others have gotten the top several picks spot on.
