ESPN had a special for Kiper & McShay's mocks 3-4 days ago & both had us taking LB's in the 1st (Kiper = Vander Esch, McShay = Evans ).

Confirmed on NFL Live. Also, KC is letting Hali go.

DeMarco Murray being released by Tennessee; Aqib Talib to Rams for 5th rd. pick.

Oh, I doubt it too. That's one of the reasons I'd be running to the podium.

I'd be on that six ways to Sunday.

FWIW, Gio was drafted higher than both of them (same round, just earlier in it).

You're not the only one. The guys I've talked to in Norman (in the OU F.O. ) have both said that they've been told by every GM they've spoken to that the only way Brown would fall out of the first is if he absolutely butchers his combine/pro days, & they also said that from what they were told, they'd be more than a little surprised if he fell out of the first half of it.

AD's always been in the high 2 teens, but I see that N.O. has him listed @ 6'1" 220 lbs. Interestingly (to me), Murray's now listed exactly the same. He's usually been about 10 lbs. bigger than AD.

Funny you should mention ST's. I know it's not what you meant when you brought them up, but Jordan was actually one heck of a return man in H.S. I'm thinking we've probably got somebody who's a little better at that now though....

Joe was charged with misdemeanor outraging public decency, FWIW. The DA made a couple of interesting comments back when it was filed as well. 1. He said that she could've been charged with 2 counts of assault, but he declined to do so because he felt he'd had to have upgraded Joe's charge to a felony due to the difference in injury, & 2. Had the exact same fight occurred between 2 men with the exact same outcome, he wouldn't have filed any charges at all (this one I still don't get because Oklahoma law is not gender specific). The ironic thing in that whole mess is that had Joe just kept on walking like he started to do when she got physical, she would've been the one who landed in the slammer. She was the one with the long rap sheet & was on probation at the time of the incident (something you'll virtually never hear from the media). There was a reason she hauled ass back across the state line as fast as she could.

Won't start a new thread for this, but Brugler's 5 teams who improved their roster the most: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2017-nfl-draft-winners-five-teams-who-improved-their-rosters-the-most-during-draft/

Don't know exactly, but it has to be in the B's because I saw on the crawl the teams that he had that were A's & C's (lowest he had). We were in neither.

Jordan's problem can be summed up in one word: Meanness; or in this case, a lack thereof. He was totally going through the motions up until & including the Tech game (the one where Mahomes went berzerk). It took an ass chewing from his dad (which is a bit ironic because Scott was one of the toughest DT's we've had in my 35+ years of watching OU & is way underrated) to get Jordan to get his mind/attitude/effort right. From that point on, he was a totally different player. IF he can maintain & improve on that, he'll stick because he's already one of the best pass D LB's in this draft.
