***2024 NFL Draft***

[cloneclone]

I keep going back to espn.com to check on the draft and it seems like for the last 2 hours TJ Tampa has been the best overall available.

I mean he's not even listed in the top 10 remaining on NFL Network. After like the first 40 picks, it seems like a real crapshoot this year

If you ever read the anonymous "scouts say" stuff in the off-season, you find pretty quickly that a lot of low-mid level scouts are really just not very good. Some scouts are good, but there are some I think only have the job due to connections.

You're right about the "scouts" doing their own blog or Twitter thing not being very good. But when national pundits (ESPN, CBS Sports, etc.) all say something similar, like Lazard late 3rd through 5th in 2018, and Tampa 2nd or 3rd this year, and it doesn't happen, it really sucks.

And it feeds into the sh*ty stuff people like the Iowa fans mentioned earlier in this thread will say about Cyclones.

He’s officially a day 3 or undrafted guy. Ouch.

Thanks Captain Obvious.

I'm not talking about "scouts" on blogs. I'm talking about the actual low to mid level NFL scouts talking to media anonymously in the off-season. There are so.e extremely bad takes among that crowd.

Not shocked honestly.

Sucks for him though.

Saban has been so good on the little coverage I watched, mostly tonight.

He said it though, it’s what you do after you’re drafted that matters most. Here’s to TJ finding a fit and crushing it next year!

Kipper had him going 29th. LOL

This is some BS. A team is going to get a steal and all the other teams are going to be sorry they passed.

Did Tampa still have college eligibility left?

He had a covid year.

 

[drmwevr08]

Could be worse still, I guess?

Are you kidding me? Jarrion Jones?

#32 cb and 235 overall rated player?

He is fast and athletic but not great in coverage. I hope Tampa doesn't go to Carolina with the 1st pick of round 4. Would love to see him go to the Chargers early round 4.... Actually, the Vikings have a pick early in round 4.

Arizona is killing this draft.
