He got on with Gronk too.
From what I remember they had a good professional relationship but that's it. Brady is supposed to be the only member of the Patriots organization that would talk with him about none football things. IIRC he was supposed to be a bit strange and people weren't comfortable around him.

One or more of those undersized WRs is going to turn out to be an absolute steal in retrospect, I just don’t know which.

Elijah Moore from Miss, Toney from UF, the guy from North Texas... And Waddle, maybe my favorite player in the draft.
Moore for sure. Also, keep an eye on Tutu Atwell for a Tyreek Hill style impact player.

Devonta Smith is 170lbs. If a team is stupid enough to pass up on him because of his measurements, they'll regret it imo. Dude is special. I'd have it:

- Ja'Marr Chase
- Devonta Smith
- Rashod Bateman
- Jaylen Waddle

That's only based on some YouTube tape and fantasy reviews though. Might be worth noting too that Waddle and Smith are a year older than Jeudy and Lamb for example (and two years older than Chase).

He’s one of the few guys I’d say you should be stoked if your team takes him regardless of need. Hell, I’d take him in Denver.

‘Hey Bill, you trying to create another TE super-duo up in Boston? Check this out...’

The feck is up with these blazing speed WRs in this draft class :lol: Could the times be skewed because it's at Pro Days at not at the official Combine like in years past?

You could add 0.05 to be safe, but it’s still fast. It’s just one of those years for 5’10” or less speedsters I think. There’s also some freaks at DE who might have been talked about going much higher if they had more tape on them (or didn’t have concussion problems).

Different surfaces are playing a part, no doubt. But the recorded times are something.

Makes sense since there wasn't much value at #3 compared to what a deal like this would bring. Decent chance the Fins could have their pick of Smith or Waddle at 12 since Chase will probably go before them.

Ah, feck. There was a rumor that someone other than Carolina was jumping into the top 5 to grab a QB...thought it was Denver.

Wow. Atleast 2 of Waddle, Smith, Chase and Pitts will be an option at 6. 3 if someone takes Sewell

Shit’s gettin‘ real, y’all. That means they really are sticking with Hurts, and if someone falls in love with a QB like Lance things could even more interesting.

The Eagles originally tried to get our 3rd pick for a QB

As always I know feck all about draft prospects, but I’ve seen Justin Fields and Zack Wilson mentioned as possible targets for Denver trading up, they any good?

Both highly rated coming into the draft - Wilson especially so.

So losing that last game got the Eagles an extra first round pick almost
When the season is lost Tanking is always the smart play. Moral victories mean nothing if you can't make the playoffs or get a high pick

Yes, but there’s a near zero chance on Wilson now. Fields and Lance are a bit polarizing so who knows what the hell will happen; many will tell you Lance has the highest ceiling of anyone outside of Trevor Lawrence.
