***FINAL BOARD 4/25/19***   ***UPDATED 4/1/19***   ***UPDATED 3/1/19***   ***UPDATED 2/1/19*** Below is my updated board. I've only included players that I think could be available towards the end of Rd 1, and I did my best to limit it to (70) players.   ***UPDATED*** Below is my updated draft board/watch list. I'll continue to update is as more info/tape becomes available. V3:   V2:   Welcome back! It's my favorite time of my, my Christmas morning... fall is right around the corner, and football is finally here! Below is my watch list, which is broken down by position, and players are in random order as it's a bit early to have too many preferences. I've also highlighted the underclassmen in gray. As always, this list will likely change/evolve over time, as more tape and info become available, and the season progresses. Before we get to my watch list, I wanted to share (5) random thoughts that I've had during my early tape eval: 1. Georgia LB DAndre Walker is one of the most violent players that I've seen on tape... really look forward to seeing what he can do this season. LSU LB Devin White also flies around the field, destroying people. 2. Clemson WR Hunter Renfrow looks every bit the slot WR that they generally target, and you can count on his name being a popular one throughout this process. 3. BB could have a solid selection of LB's and S's to pick from, if he chooses to go in that direction early. 4. Wyoming S Andrew Wingard looks a bit like NE safeties coach, Stephen Belichick. 5. As things stand today, Auburn QB Jarrett Stidham is the QB that I like most, while South Carolina QB Jake Bentley is a sleeper name. Also if forced to pick a way-too-early name (non-QB) for their 1st round pick, I'm leaning towards Washington S Taylor Rapp at this point... and I also really like Miami S Jaquan Johnson, ND LB Tevon Coney, Miami LB Shaq Quarterman, and BC DL Zach Allen. Overall, I think they're going to need to address the S sooner than later, as DMC and Patrick Chung are both (31) years old. With that said, here's the board V1:  GO PATS & GO IRISH! |

Great stuff as always MB. Cant wait to follow along all season so that I can be prepared for the draft, thanks to you and all the other
guys that contribute to this thread. Best time of the year is here (for sports fans anyways). College and pro football start this week.

You know me I don't watch much CFB and get into the prospects closer to the draft but the few times I've watched Clemson in recent seasons is Renfrow ever NOT open?

thanks to you and all you and the rest of the regular contributors here. You guys provide tons of good info. The guy I'm watching this year is Ryan Finley. He seems to have the traits they look for in a QB. Taking care of the ball being the number one priority. I'll be interested to watch how he progresses from last year.

Random thoughts......
Got to think S, DT, WR, QB on shopping list.
Ed Oliver is going #1 overall...he’s being compared to Donald.
I like the 2 safeties from Washington.
I like the 2 DTs from Clemson ( Lawrence and Wilkins)
I like Campbell and Ridley at WR. I think both could fit the Pats system and I think Campbell could be an excellent Edelman replacement+

Merry Football Christmas.
Great time to look forward as the season has started - next week's game plan and all. And of course the 15 transactions in the first week alone to tweak the roster! Yea!
Safe to say a whole lot of us visit this thread regularly. Thanks as always!

That's too bad, Adams looked like he was a sure first rounder. Browning was a different QB - very good - when Adams played at LT two years ago. |

Keeping an eye on my Maine Black Bears! Down 21-0 to FBS Western Kentucky, FCS Maine came back to win 31-28 in Bowling Green mainly because of their "Black Hole" defense.

Just finished watching parts of two games.
USC v Stanford
Arizona vs Houston
In the USC vs Stanford game, only one player stood out to me - Stanford's WR JJ Arcega-Whiteside (6-3,225)
On the Arizona vs Houston game, three players stood out.
Ed Oliver of course played as advertised. His game was much better than the stats. He racked up 5 solo tackles, 13 total tackles, 3.5 for loss. Pretty good stats actually but it does not capture or the near TFLs he had.
I also like the OC, Will Noble (6-5, 295). I thought he was unmovable upfront pass-blocking.
The QB, D'Eriq King, is pretty good. He was a WR who played his first start as a QB. Had 59% completion rate for the game but it was more because his receivers kept dropping the ball. There was a series of three downs incomplete, all dropped balls. That said, this QB is a long shot to make it in the NFL. He is 5-11, 195. He has really good legs. Perhaps take him late or as FA to be JE 2.0.

MB, sleeping on Ole Miss Rebs? Try some of these fine talented players on your board:
QB - Jordan Ta'amu
WR - A.J. Jones & D.J. Metcalf - widely considered to be the best WR tandem in the SEC
LT - Greg Little - all SEC last year and All-American this year
LG - Javon Patterson
NT - Benito Jones - all SEC last season.

A lot of interesting edge players in the upcoming draft. At least six kids not on the list on MB's thread opener:
Austin Bryant
Clelin Ferrell
Rashan Gary - I prefer over Winovich
Jaylon Ferguson - Might be this year's smaller school revelation
Montez Sweat - Still moves lanky; he's just gonna get better
Nick Bosa - Genetics in his favor

I also tried to stay close to their preferred height/weight premiums by position, so I didn't list Sweat because he listed at 241 pounds, which is too small for a rush end in their scheme. I'll have to take a look at some tape over time, to see if he projects well to more of an off-the-ball role, etc. |

I was just making the point that as far as the volume of edge prospects is concerned, this might be the most loaded class in a while. There might be like at least 6 of them worthy of being picked in the first. |

Bosa and Oliver look like elite prospects. |
