That's #6 btw

Wow. Not a good night for Dobbs and Peterman.

Not a good two days for offensive type players.

Great two days for defensive backs.

 

[tnprogrammer]

How ANYONE could choose Beathard over Dobbs is waaaaaay beyond me.

Who was 6? I only counted 5.

Drew freaking breathard

49ers are a joke

I think we can all agree that this is D4H'S fault.

He is the kiss of death. Liked it better before a few years ago when he didn't portray himself as a Vol fan

Webb was #5.

Won't matter; he'll try to spin it that it turned out better for Dobbs and declare himself still right.

Well the league just threw up a big ole middle finger to UT's program.

Looks like they love Jones' development of players.

I would prefer for him to be right in this case

Honestly, if it wasn't for the idiot talking heads it wouldn't be that bad. We all saw Dobbs play his whole career- not until after the season did anyone serious (obviously this excludes DD4H) think Dobbs was going to be drafted highly. It's like the pundits talked themselves into it despite the weight of Dobbs actual tape.

There has been a lot of selections that made absolutely no sense.

Sometimes it's "who you know"...

I never knew his grand dad was part of NFL. I'm sure that helped

Interesting - I thought that only happened in high school.

 

[Bleed-Orange]

D4H has been setting us up all along, The 4 has always been a reference to the round he would be drafted. He's just been waiting on us all to figure it out, a genuine soothsayer.

ESPN actually had Dobbs as the next best available with 10 or so picks to go in the third.

The pundits bought into intelligence and leadership. The GM's looked at ability

You have to look at Dobbs and his ability to throw NFL type throws the deeper out and steam passes that are required by NFL quarterbacks he.. simply has not demonstrated that everyone keeps thinking of him as the dual threat... dual threat quarterback's don't exist in the NFL.. really only more mobile who selectively run

The NFL does not value dual-threat QB's as highly as college. I would not be surprised if Chad Kelly is drafted next.

CBS didn't even have on that list...

Or kaaya or peterman
