Today Pat Kirwin said something that really impressed me. On their show, they were discussing who should be the first pick of the draft, and of course there was no clear cut answer. Kirwin though said something that I have believed true since looking at this draft class. He see's only one guy in the draft that will likely have a 10-15 year career and make multiple Pro Bowls.
Tyler Linderbaum. He said if drafting a guy #1 was based on the most likely guy to make the Hall of Fame in this class - it's Linderbaum.

Ravens always seem to draft so well.
 
" Best player in the draft"? I don't see it. He's now the smallest guy (290#) on the Ravens OL, they usually draft BIG center's. Some of the draftnicks wonder just what the Raven's were thinking here. Lets see what happens the first time he squares off with a 360# DT that blows his butt into the backfield. I'll keep an eye on how he does out of curiosity.

This is being presented in a dishonest way.

There is a lot of negativity surrounding their draft pick, but only because they traded away Hollywood Brown for a Center, essentially. Their QBs friend etc.. all bc they didnt wanna pay him
 
A lot of the strengths and weaknesses of linderbaum remind me of Garrett bradberry, who went in the 1st and gets eaten by bigger d tackles

I don't want to simplify what i'm sure is a thorough process for them, but rarely do they seem to draft someone and it gives off an aura of trying to be the smartest guy in the room.
They were either going to take Jordan Davis or Kyle Hamilton yesterday with their first pick by most accounts yesterday, arguably two of the most gifted players in the draft.
 
Good night Pat Kirwan

Talk about playing it safe the C is his best projected

He is supposed to offer value he is supposed to offer insight

To me this is his fear shining thru that he can’t see talent beyond what is in front of his eyes Afraid he might actually make a mistake in what is otherwise a meh draft and he called out for it

He and his buddy were hyping this guy as early teens in their 25 mock drafts on ESPN Sirius NFL radio

Also - Not to forget to mention Pat and his buddy are blowhards when it comes to anything MIA they just get very subjective and testy real quick

They slurp BB even tho it was Brady and his selfless contracts that balanced out his poor drafts as the Pats supplemented their roster with top players on Brady’s back

Right. They don't over think it. Football players over measureables.

They saw what shula and company saw drafting the best center to EVER play the game DWIGHT STEPHENSON. Wasnt big, had an I odd stance but lightning fast off the snap and into his oponent and regularly stimied 2 guys. His game and strength were MUCH larger than his size.

Will TL be the next dwight stephenson? Time will tell. But, he is the closest center i have seen that has the goods. Wish we would have made a move for him. To late now.

Dwight was the best at his weight around 260 soaking wet -

If you are honest you will admit the D line players are bigger stronger faster the DE will line up everywhere

Can’t just hand off HOF awards

No longer are there just guys eating blocks in the interior - the game is different the Dline is going to have their chance to dominate an irregular C with shorter arms who may be a tactician but will routinely give up 45Lbs per opponent
