This is why draft lotteries are so dumb.

Screwed over again

Let’s hope it translates to the NFL.

The Cowboys are a mess. Their crazy owner gave away their draft ranking and showed that they didn’t even select the best player on their list, Cine, who was also the only player left with a 1st round grade. Jerry Jones revealed top of Cowboys’ draft board, with Kayvon Thibodeaux at No. 1

Rapoport reveals what the Lions offered for 49ers' Deebo Samuel "The Lions offer was, I think, a one and a three, and the 49ers didn't view that as a good enough offer [either]," Rapoport told Rich Eisen on Monday. "And they wanted to keep the player anyway, so they just didn't trade him."

One last one from https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/05/02/baltimore-ravens-draft-room-nfl-fmia-peter-king/ 3. Love what Detroit did. The night before the draft, in Vegas, Aidan Hutchinson’s sister, Aria, said as the pre-draft pressure was getting to everyone in the family: “Please, please, please let him get picked by Detroit!” Think of that. When’s the last time someone has wanted a loved one to go to the Detroit Lions? Night Train Lane? Joe Schmidt? The Hutchinsons live near Ford Field and are close, granted. But if they didn’t believe that the Lions had a chance to escape their hellhole, they’d never have been begging for Aidan to land there. The Lions felt similarly. After the Jaguars picked Travon Walker number one, the Lions told the league the pick was in, and it was Hutchinson—within a minute of the Walker pick. “We turned the card in so fast the league got mad at us,” said one Lion official.

Believe it or not it actually gets better. Dan Campbell on quickly making No. 2 choice: We’re not going to do the dog-and-pony show I still questions the wisdom of taking play calling, but this I love.

Whoa

Lions official says they turned in Aidan Hutchinson card so fast, the NFL got mad This is awesome

I think there is a similar perception of Lamar and the playoffs. Personally I just wouldn’t want to trade and give a mega contract to a run first QB like Lamar. Draft and develop would be fine. I just don’t see how he can have longevity with his current play style.

Carson Strong gets $320,000 guaranteed from Eagles Eagles are going wild with UDFA money.

I took a stab at the offer

Carson Strong and Josh Jobe to the Eagles. Smoke Monday to the Saints. Think Ross is still unsigned. Dohnovan West to the 49ers.

Wild. Trades in the 6th and 7th round just seem so strange. Wonder what the Eagles see. Maybe they are afraid of a run on punters.

TE James Mitchell, VaTech

Here we go. This is the “send a message” pick!

I was thinking that too, but some of these guys seem to hide all emotion. Hopefully it’s that! Malik Willis refused to hug back whoever was hugging him when he was picked.

Hutch has the Zach Wilson buzz this year with the focus on his mom and sister(s)
