The 2023 NFL Draft Rounds 4 through 7 4/29/23 12 noon

I get Lindy's every year. The last couple of years I feel like I'm getting less for more. In their profiles I want a summary at the end, not a comparison to a player long forgotten or one in the CFL.
I think Athlon's is better. I like the big board that they slot every player by round.
On the internet, I find the Huddle Report top 200 to be best of the bunch year after year.

I used to buy a couple for second opinions, but this year I attempted to do more with less and wait until mid-March before I got into it so as not to waste time.

I still like Lindy's and I think, particularly this year, that the Comps might prove more accurate than a lot of people like to believe, even if some
of the guys that get talked up get compared to XFL or whatever players. I hope to learn, eventually, to view our draftees with realistic expectations and if somebody
exceeds the comps then all the better.

Sometimes it's better to draft a guy that can give you rotational snaps for a while or play on STs than get all excited prematurely.

In general, I don't like premature excitement, if you know what I'm sayin'. :yay2:
 
Not a guddamned thing.

Grades are given out based on how many recognizable names teams end up with. Nobody goes back and reviews those grades when
the guys have had a reasonable chance to sink or swim so it's all just a good wank session for showing off what Football geniuses they are.

By the way, I gave the Pats an A+

agree 100%

Having said that, one could review recent Patriot drafts. I’d say it’s been OK but not great and did not gain ground on competition.

There’s a decent relationship between accumulating more value than other teams, and team success in a salary cap world. I wouldn’t say the Pats have gained in the division the last couple years. And it’s been a disaster since the great Floyd Reese / O’Brien era drafts.
 
I feel like there's probably good information here. Unfortunately Mrs. Lockwood, my 5th grade language arts teacher, has demanded that the first sentence be taken out back and shot.

Can you please rephrase?
Tell your 5th grade language arts teacher that I am to damn old to care what she may want. Sometimes I reply like I am actually talking to you. The mind is always the first to go.

I'll let her know. In the meantime, I really am interested in what you were saying, but I really don't know what it was.
 
Another thought I had. What are the chances one of these giant guards ends up taking snaps as a 1-tech DT?
