A few more notes from Mel Kiper’s conference call:Faust said:
True. I absorb what the "experts" say, and there are certain expert opinions I value more than others. However, in the end, I prefer to watch game film (not strictly highlight film) and draw my own conclusions, rather than relying strictly upon the scouting reports of others. This is especially true where the experts don't really reach a consensus.barackdhouse said:Exactly but I feel like I have no choice but to try and parse thru that stuff.

2 intriguing QB's outside the top 5 guys- Davis Mills (Stanford) & Kellen Mond (Texas A&M). Both guys have a lot to work with & showed improvement this past season. Mond made some huge throws against FL & Bama. Followed that up with SR Bowl MVP. Both could develop into starters.
Wow. Tons of guys there. I think I'm gonna need twenty draft picks.
Lead draft analyst Mike Renner ranks the best NFL draft prospects of the PFF College era. Clemson's Trevor Lawrence takes the top spot over the likes of Baker Mayfield, Joe Burrow, Justin Fields, Marcus Mariota, Chase Young, Myles Garrett and many more.
Javonte Williams #8?
I watched again last night and I'm not sure I get the allure, either. But check out Sermon at 26 and Jefferson at 29. Thank you very much, keep 'em coming, fellas.Javonte Williams #8?
ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. tagged Stanford QB Davis Mills as his "sleeper" at the position.
Kiper is quick to cite Mills' arm talent, frame and ceiling as intriguing while noting that the 6-foot-4, 212-pounder would be served best by landing with a team which has the luxury to develop him off the bench for a season or two before potentially pushing him into the starting fire. Kiper also writes that due to a lack of college starts -- just 11 -- Mills is being viewed as a project at this point. Occasionally projects work out (Josh Allen and Dak Prescott, for instance) but just keep in mind that the road to the NFL is paved in failed project quarterbacks. The reality of the position is that teams are simply not patient enough, generally speaking, to put in the time necessary to develop quarterbacks who still need real work. The NFL tends to move too quickly for patience.

Sure, I'll take a couple potential starting RBs in the 3rd!I watched again last night and I'm not sure I get the allure, either. But check out Sermon at 26 and Jefferson at 29. Thank you very much, keep 'em coming, fellas.
Amari Rodgers has a chance to go early on the second day after hauling in 77 receptions for 1,020 yards and seven touchdowns during his final campaign at Clemson in 2020.
“Amari Rodgers - great slot receiver and had a great Senior Bowl week,” Kiper said. “He has got a chance to be one of the first five, six, seven, or eight picks in the second round. So when day two kicks off, Amari Rodgers - I think hears his name called very early. Out of the rest of the Clemson guys, I think it will be Amari Rodgers. He is the highest-rated and I think he goes early second round.”

You had to be scouring something that brought you to the Jets site for this. That makes me
Iowa WR Brandon Smith ran a 4.56 40-yard dash and recorded a 44-inch vertical jump at the HOA Scouting Combine.
His vertical jump would place Smith (6'2/218) in the 99th percentile for all wideouts and would have been the fourth highest vertical since 1999 if it had occurred at the regular NFL Scouting Combine. What makes the jump even more impressive is the Iowa receiver weighs almost 220-pounds, that's a whole lotta beef he has to propel to reach the 44-inch plateau. Smith projects as a late Day 2 - early Day 3 selection, but his impressive combine showing could bump the Hawkeye's draft position up another round or so if things break right.
