Derek Barnett is No. 4 overall in PFF mock draft

My mistake, I stand corrected.

No you don't. He nearly stroked out when I told him Barnett would get drafted before Dobbs.
It may have been in the recruiting forum, but you are very close to a hundred percent accurate.
Said that *if Barnett even was drafted, it would be in the latest rounds because he doesn't have the measurables scouts are looking for.
I tried to point out that his talent overcame the inch shortfall on measurables, ended about how you would expect.. he watches a lot of film or some gibberish.

I wouldnt mind the Titans snagging him

Doubt they get a shot at him, unless they make a few trades to move up. From where they project to pick, he will probably have left the building, and be celebrating at the best steak house in town.

Bama with 4 projected first rounders. Jesus....

They had 3 guys (A'Shawn Robinson, Jarran Reed, and Reggie Ragland) projected to go in the first round last year. All 3 fell to the second. Only 1 guy (Ryan Kelly) made it into the first round and there was no one projecting him as a first rounder at this time last year.

I would take these mock drafts with a grain of salt. Outside of guys like Fournette and Garrett who have been projected as top 5 picks for the last 3 years, no one knows exactly who is a first rounder right now.

Guys like Tim Williams who the mock drafts love could fall in the draft because he's still just a situational pass rusher. Someone like Cam Robinson could fall cause he's had such a poor season. And so on.

There is no surefire first rounder on this Alabama team. They're dominant because they have 8-10 guys who will be drafted in the 1st-3rd round. Depth of talent moreso than elite first rounders is the key to Alabama's success.

But you have said Hurd, Dobbs, Sutton and Kamara wold be first rounders?

Cam Robinson is one 5 semifinalist for the Outland Trophy....

Jalen Tabor to the Titans

My Titan side says Hell Yeah but my Vol side says Ah Hell

I did learn to love Kearse and Carter so I guess I'm good with it.

I would rather see the Titans pick up DB early and then get Cam with their 2nd pick. That makes my Titans side and Vols side both happy. I still like Cams play over Tabor Toast.

I love Cam, but be is a 3rd day pick(4-7 round). Kamara is one of my all time favorite Vols, but he is, at best a 2nd day pick(2 or 3 round), but Barnett is a no doubt top 20 pick! Maybe Cam or Alvin will have a better career, but my money is on Barnett

I said they were first rounders. But they might not be selected in the first round. NFL teams are dumb like that.

They will have careers worthy of first round picks. Especially Kamara and Sutton.

What a surprise, you're wrong again. Kelly was projected as a first round pick in a couple of draft boards (I know because many of them had him going to the Skins).

I don't watch o-line so that wasn't my opinion. That's what I read on some mock drafts that had him falling to the bottom of the first round.

Oh keep it coming. This is good.

At this time last year?

I know his stock rose after the combine but I don't remember him being a projected first rounder at this time.

I give you my opinion on some guys and report what scouts say about the others. When I disagree I let it be known. When I don't have any information to contradict the media/scout consensus I just tell you what I heard.

I don't get what you thought was so good about that.
