Yeah before we picked Moses at some point, was listening to it on Sirius on the road back from the track. It is very hard to follow what is going on in the draft due to all the interviews and such. It was easier yesterday in round one, but in two and three it is rough. They are way late on getting picks in. Plus trying to following the Wiz.

It's almost impossible to have a good-looking draft when you don't pick in the top 40. Doesn't mean they were wrong to trade down, necessarily. It's just that when you don't pick in the first round because you throw a silly amount of picks around, and then move down in the second round, you won't have a shot at the blue chip talent in the draft.

It's okay though. They'll do work tomorrow. Gruden developed many day 3 offensive guys in three years with Cincinnati.

Not to unleash my inner Kindergarten Ninja but as much as I love Jordan Reed I'm concerned about his durability going forward as was shown in a chart posted a couple weeks earlier. Right now I'm seeing the following available:

Colt Lyerla {TE Oregon}
Arthur Lynch {TE UGA}
Jake Pedersen {TE Wisc}

Lyerla would be extremely tempting if we didn't have Reed but obviously if your trying to find a 2nd TE and your 1st one is mostly a receiver you want someone thats a little bit of a blocker. Not to mention scouts Inc gave Lyerla the worst possible grade for intangibles 5 which translates to marginal (1 is exceptional and the highest rating)

There are questions concerning his ability to handle authority and his commitment to football. Oregon head coach described Lyerla's absence as "circumstances" following 2013 Tennessee game. Lyerla complained to The Oregonian newspaper that he felt description could be unfairly interpreted. Suspended for the 2013 Colorado game for violating team rules. Left Oregon for personal reasons the following week. Arrested on charges of unlawful possession of cocaine and interfering with a police officer October, 2013. Plead guilty to cocaine possession December, 2013. Sentenced to 10 days in jail and 10 days suspended Eugene Register-Guard reported. Posted tweets supporting conspiracy theories surrounding Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting and later apologized.

On second thought I say steer clear of Lyerla. Seems like Jeremy Stevens Jr.

Yeah pass on that dude. Doesn't seem like someone we would draft with his history.

Hoping the team is taking a look at Exum, Bailey, or McGill as secondary options with the 4th and I'd also be down for seeing De'Anthony Thomas in a skins uniform if he were to fall to our fifth round pick.

Also see everyone talking about Pierre Desir, but don't know enough about him to make an opinion one way or another. And what's up with talks of Shane Skov possibly going undrafted now? He was at one time a borderline first/second day prospect.

Yeah I saw buffalo got cyrus.. good pick

Based on the little I saw and what I was reading it felt like he was the second most talented Tackle after Greg Robinson. However between the average game film and the durability concerns its easy to see why he dropped.

It's crazy I remember SF saying Skov Could be a first round pick back in December. What happened to him? Is he slow as dirt or something

All I'm seeing is a knee injury two years ago which he fully came back from this year with over 100 tackles and a DUI in 2012. I'm scratching my head on this one too.

He ran a 5.09 40 at Stanford's pro day. For comparison's sake, that's the same time Seantrel Henderson ran. Ouch!

But like SFRedskin said(I think it was him, if not I apologize), "I don't care how slow his 40 yard time was; the man can play."

Edit: BTW, here's great article to read, not only about Skov, but about how important 40 yard times in general are.

Vontaze Burfict aka Captain Insano ran a 5.07 as well, led the league in tackles this season.

Still wished we drafted that guy. Shayne in an interesting prospect. I would welcome the dude, and I think he will go today in round 4. Will be interesting to see. Will be interesting to see where we go today, and if he lasts to the top of 5 or 6 then grab him.
