Pick 1.08 looks like a great pick to target in trades.
You're guaranteed a pretty decent prospect.

I'm trying to find my own brand of clarity and get my draft board ready to be published tonight/tomorrow, but Demario is very likely to be a mid-third / early-fourth round value on my board. That'd put him comfortably in my top 50.ETA: Bloom and I generally have very different philosophies in the 3rd-5th round. I'm much more willing to value a second/third tier IDP prospect over a fourth/fifth tier RB/WR prospect, regardless of positional scarcity arguments, etc.Looks like we agree in a lot of places on the relative tiers, however.

agree. I have 1.09 in a league. If 1.07-8 are affordable I'll move up. If not, it's going to be Jeffery at 9.
Polk is talented, Brown used to be.

How do we know Brown still isn't?
Did he forget how to play?

He's had 3 carries since 2009 so I think it's possible.

Dion Lewis is vastly superior to both so it's irrelevant.
Polk his upright style and degenerative hip won't last long in the NFL. Surprised he wasn't drafted, but didn't think much of him to begin with.
Maybe Bryce Brown decides to grow up someday. Guys that were once handed everything, sit around doing nothing for years rarely suddenly to again develop motivation. Nice practice squad candidate or he's playing in some nothing indoor league the rest of his life.

He went to Miami.Looking at it closer the realfor me is Michael Egnew. Pre-Draft he's a "nice H-Back/Slot TE" who could move up 10-20 spots depending on where he goes. But after the draft he drops 25 spots and becomes only a "project TE with limited upside."

Is he worth wasting a roster spot for 2-3 years? I saw Mallet get drafted as Brady's replacement in almost every league last year, and now he is on the waiver wire in almost every league.

I think that comparison of Luck to Matt Ryan is a little odd. His combine numbers are closer to Cam Newton's than Ryan. He's bigger, faster and stronger than ryan. He's not the athlete that Rg3 is ( who is, really), but he's a significantly talented athlete, and I think it's the synergy of Luck's athleticism, and his passing skills that make him an exciting prospect.

Thanks!!!!

I agree. Luck will be one of the top 5 athletic starting QBs in the league from the get go. The fact that he is also very cerebral, ran a pro style offense and controlled the playcalling at the line of scrimmage, and can make all the throws puts him in the elite prospect category.

More a harmeless jab than anything, the most predictable the Bloom 100 is the number of WR/RB who are 2nd guy taken who are "one to go after" or higher rated even theough the NFL or team does not seem to have it rated that way. Just long term observation versus studied and critical comment.

Top 5? Doubt it...Mike VickCam NewtonAaron RodgersRobert Griffin IIIAnd if they start:Jake LockerRyan TannehillTim TebowThere's probably others but that was off the top of my head.

Those are the only guys I would say are more athletic. Moot point really. I'm the same height and more athletic than Tom Brady. Doesn't make me a great QB.QB is largely about mental talent, and I think Luck excels there.

It's tough to tie up a roster spot but it normally (outside of Cam) takes that long for a player to become a top QB. Both Mallett and Osweiler are 4th round rookie picks and cheap stash. As for Mallet being on the waiver wire, I can guarantee when Brady even catches a cold people will be racing to pick him up. Unless you have a very short bench there is probably someone you can cut to make room for QB's with this upside.'Max Power said:

Egnew is the new Finley buddy. 92nd for a 3rd round pick under a new regime wanting to overhaul the roster and also have announced they are building thru the draft? I'll take the under on the 92.

64. Bernard Pierce is listed as a career backup.. If the ravens dont sign RRice to a long term deal and BP shows skills as a backup this year.. perhaps the ravens let rice walk and plug in BPierce next year??

Pead and Turbin are way too low, and Polk is way too high imo.

I thought it was Lamar miller that had the shoulder issue. You might be getting them mixed up.

He's the 3rd best Missouri tight end in the last 5 years, neither of the others did anything in the NFL.

Lamar Miller had shoulder surgery after his season ended.Chris Polk had labral issues with his shoulder over a year ago, I think. It was suggested that may have had something to do with his ability to lift weights and a contributing factor to his lack of definition at the Senior Bowl. There were reports swirling -- nothing "official" -- that Polk had a degenerative hip condition in recent days. Polk flatly and hotly denied the rumors himself.

Bloom frequently sticks to his guns in the post-draft version. If he ranks WR A ahead of WR B in the pre-draft feature and a team takes both, but in the reverse of how Bloom originally ranked them (i.e. Cincinnati drafting Mo Sanu before Marvin Jones), he'll still recommend you target the later draft pick first.

I understand liking the talent but he was M. Jones was drafted in the 5th, two rounds after Sanu to a team that already has a superstar WR - not to mention a good, young TE. There is zero upside there.
