I'll start. Max Scharping is a Pro Bowl offensive lineman.

Jeffery Simmons is not a bad guy. He seems to be meek and nice man.

Brian Burns is the top edge rusher in the draft

Preach, brother! You've got the truth!

Wait, nevermind!

I actually want to like him but fear that he's actually 5'6" 145lb

Rashaun Gary is over-rated. Workout warrior and is going to be
a clubhouse lawyer. Buyer beware.

I heard he makes Murray look like a giant.

5-8, 180 at the senior bowl.

Draft Murray and Hart, then only take pictures of them together? Championship.

In all seriousness, I think he athletically profiles as a deep threat, and that's a tough sell for a 5'8" guy. He's high cut and doesn't look that great in side to side movements, so he's kinda without a position. I think he would excel on a WCO team that runs tons of crossers and deep shots, like the Falcons/Redskins/49ers. I just wouldn't want him in a finesse offense like we have.

Not sure I agree but that’s the joy of this time of the year. I can’t get the image of him destroying Nasir Adderley at the Senior Bowl out of my head. I think Hart would do fine in the slot.

Deebo Samuel is a poor man's Cordarrelle Patterson. Not a bad thing per say....just not in the first or second round.

Most of Josh Allen's big plays were against slow LTs where he beat them around the edge. His game isn't going to translate to the pros. I didn't see other moves or the ability/will to bull rush.

He also seemed to make a lot of plays where the offense simply screwed up. You could say he was smart for picking up on what the offense did wrong but that also happens a lot less in the pros.

He's on every Pats mock I've drawn up so far. OK, that's a total of two, but still.

Does it count as an unpopular opinion that the Pats will target interior OL and LB relatively early?

I think a few of us are on board with interior OL early. Not sure about LB though.

I would say that targeting interior lineman is definitely an unpopular opinion because Thuney, Andrews, and Mason are rock solid and healthy. We might need someone soon, but it seems a bit weird for us to waste a high pick on a guy that definitely won't play as a rookie.

I wish I could hit all the reaction buttons for this... Like, Agree, Useful!

I'm all good with it though. The more of these overrated 'body beautiful' prospects that people talk up, the more that the actual talent will slip down in the draft.

And yet, Dante and Chris Lindstrom are now BFFs.

I would a-okay with this! I'm all about the grizzlies up front, on O and D.
