BlueShoe Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 This will be different than what you are used to seeing. These rankings are based on my opinion alone, and are not intended to mirror any team in the NFL. This board is also not an indication of where I believe players will be drafted. I am sure every NFL team has different boards due to several reasons, including character and systems. You will notice that Jameis Winston is not on the board, and that is because I would not draft him. If I was running an NFL front office then you could not give him to me. People may also question why I have Marcus Mariota first. I will preface the answer. I believe that Mariota is the only chance any team has of drafting a quality quarterback this season. Teams can win without great players at other positions, but in this league quarterbacks are a must so they are valued higher. I also believe that Mariota will be an outstanding pro.

BlueShoe Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 B.S. decided to take a shot at my BB, I was returning the favor.Objectively, this is still very bad.I figured your were acting out of spite. Doesn't change how I feel about your big board, but does show a certain maturity level. Learning to listen to constructive criticism is a very strong trait to have. Is easier said than done in this type of environment, but if you master it here then it will serve you well.I meant what I said about your big board. I should have been nicer about it though. That said, I bet there are 2 teams who would feel the same about each others big boards.It's nothing personal Dustin. I just don't like your big board. We are seeing this play out differently.

ColtsBlueFL Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I would like to point out to members that none of these draft eligible players have a track record in the NFL. Thus it is a projection based upon what the OP knows about the athletes skills and how they may translate in the NFL compared to other college athletes. The ordering is subjective preference. A subjective preference cannot be considered wrong.... until it is proven (likely years later) by concrete data from the NFL games the athletes have played in. So until these players have established their credentials on the football field, they are not really wrong or horrible or other such demeaning terms. You can disagree with a poster, and their list, and it goes a long way to your credibility if you explain why you feel so. But it doesn't make theirs horrible or whatever. There is just disagreement. That determination of which is a better list is actually on hold until some time in the future when the players display their capabilities in the League. Then it can be revisited then. I'd like to ask people refrain from demeaning another posters draft order preference if at all possible. Disagree, go for it. Even post you own and explain why it may be a more accurate listing. But allow others to rank according to their own feelings based upon what they know. Sometimes, even pro scouts,coaches, and GM's miss on prospects. Nobody is perfect. So disagree, debate, but with respect please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueShoe Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 How am I just noticing this? Just to clarify, you are stating that there is no way Breshad Perriman will be drafted before DeVante Parker? My interpretation is that not only are you saying that, you are also poking fun at it. You opinion is that it is not ever remotely possible? For the record, I do believe Perriman is the better of the two and will be drafted before Parker. That said, I do not believe it is a slam dunk. Anything can happen, and any teams board can be different than what you and I think. Enjoy your bourbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueShoe Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Because Perriman isn't as good as Parker. Also, I can't think of a single justification for Ray over Beasley. In your opinion. Remember that is only your opinion. Whether or not NFL front offices actually share that opinion is yet to be seen. And whether or not one player is actually better than the other is yet to be seen. When it comes to the draft I will make no absolutes. Over the past 30 plus years, I have learned that anything can happen in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueShoe Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 What is your justification for Ray > Beasley? Because Ray reminds me a lot of a young Shawne Merriman. I don't dislike either. I just have Ray slightly ahead of Beasley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting Mike Mayock elevated Breshad Perriman to equal status as DeVante Parker recently, after Perriman ran a blazing 4.25 forty at his pro day. Previously Perriman was ranked along side Strong. And he believes White, Cooper, Parker ,ad Perriman will all go off the board within the first 20 picks. He feels Jaelen Strong will sneak off the board near the end of round 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perriman has the kind of speed that gets a player drafted earlier than he should. In Perriman's case though, I think he is actually a good receiver too. I do not disagree with Mayock on the WR's. It looks very possible. I have done several mock drafts, over an over, changing things up. Every time, those WRs go in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done several mock drafts, over an over, changing things up. Every time, those WRs go in the first round.I really don't intend this to be overtly argumentative.....but what purpose does it serve to do Mock scenarios out of your own brain to validate what might happen? I certainly accept them as scenarios to propose ie. "here is how all those WR's could go in the first round", but until you have other brains involved that could see the same thing differently, they are nothing more than interesting personal excercises.
