I was just thinking that the Raiders, who need help at CB could be in line to grab one of them.
Belem. forgot all about Christian signing as a FA, thanks!!!! Hope he makes the squad!
I have so many draft names going through my head. I was just reading about Watson and how this is his make or break year.
For Golson to go before PJ tells me that his DUI charge is killing him.
Another big O-lineman to protect Jameis. I like it!
Now a Miami of Ohio CB gets selected before PJ. smh.

And D'joun Smith of FAU. I know PJ tested positive for stupidity, but he really killed himself. The Raiders at #68 are now prime to grab PJ, Jaelen Strong or I'd love some Duke Johnson right there.
If the Raiders were going to draft a Nole a little too high, I would have preferred they drafted NOL at TE and picked a CB with the 35th (would really have preferred a CB at #35 and a DE at #68). Walford is an extremely athletic TE but can't block, at all, at least NOL can block some and still get a good number of catches.
McShay's top 10 prospects still on the board (does not include LSU's OL, La'el Collins, who is surrounded by some sort of police investigation possibly concerning the death of an ex-girlfriend, and I believe that Collins issued a statement saying that if were not drafted in the first 3 rounds, he would re-enter the draft in 2016):
1. T.J. Clemmings, OT, Pitt (88)
2. Grady Jarrett, DT, Clemson (83)
3. Mike Bennett, DT, Ohio State (82)
4. Trey Flowers, DE, Arkansas (80)
5. Rashad Greene, WR, FSU (77)
6. Justin Hardy, WR, East Carolina (73)
7. Anthony Harris, S, Virginia (73)
8. Tre' Jackson, G, FSU (73)
9. Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor (73)
10. Jay Ajayi, RB, Boise St (72)

The TE position has been redefined by players like Graham and Gronk. With the emphasis the NFL puts on measurables, I'm not surprised. O'Leary doesn't fit the mold and that has hurt him.
Agreed 100%. Oakland is looking for 10-12 TD's and 90 catches immediately from Walford.
They should put a limit on Mayock and his phrases. I have to have heard "heavy handed" about a bazillion times now.
I hate it for Rashad, but I hope he drops just a little more to Tampa here in the 4th and we give Jaboo a 3rd WR weapon and someone he's got the built-in familiarity with
And now a QB converted to TE gets picked because of his size. That really sucks for people like NOL who can actually play the position.
Here is a link to the Boston Herald from early April, discussing Trickett's connection to the Pats and that the Pats were looking at drafting Cam Erving. There have been a few other articles detailing the new Patriots/Noles connection.

Was glad to finally hear someone on a draft coverage talk about Maritoa's 27 fumbles when all we hear about is Jameis' interceptions.
Folks have wondered about NOL's draft status due to his size for a while but I saw Matias projected as his as the third round in several mocks. What in the world is happening with him?
That's what I was thinking too. Up until that I thought their draft was pretty good.
I'm really worried NOL won't be drafted. That bums me out.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME BILLS!!! NOL!!
I guess I just had to put it out in the universe for it to happen!
