    Three 1st rd guys and two 2nd rd guys, then you've got talented guys like Blue,, Williams, Sorrell, Bond who will all probably be gone by the 4th rd. Plus late rd guys like Broughton, Cooner, Majors, Bolden.

    I'm not sure what more Marshall could expect out of this draft. It could be that he's just being argumentative.

    Just generally not in favor of limiting your selections to any individual school, no matter how good.

    I was being totally serious, because mock drafts are serious business.

    You have more of a sense of humor than I thought initially. Keep up the good work.

    If you pay a little more attention, you might develop one someday too ;)

    Interesting move given they don't have a QB yet. Maybe Rogers or another vet will come there now.

    Doesn’t make sense to me at all.

    Agree with @Buck Turgidson his voice sucked, but I did enjoy his insights. Loved his logic and would be happy with that draft.

    I like his content but of course I'm a degenerate draft junkie. Lol. I will say that I vehemently disagree with us taking that WR out of Stanford with our #2 pick.

    Steelers can still trade back in the draft and pick up more picks. QB Tyler Shough would make a lot of sense for them. Most NFL ready QB in the draft and he has a big arm.

    I'm not going to watch the content by the youtuber. The tape on Ayomanor shows that he is not good at creating separation and has problems tracking the ball. He's not good at catching contested balls or when he has contact. He has one of the worst drop rates of all the receivers in the draft. All that elite athletic traits are worthless if your not getting open and catching balls. Ayomanor is going to get drafted but there's no way he goes in the 2nd round. He's a day 3 draft pick. If I'm picking a WR in the 2nd round I'm targeting Jayden Higgins and if he's not available I would go with one of the TCU wide receivers.

    Didn’t he demolish Travis Hunter?
    Or am I thinking of someone else?

    I wouldn't demolish Travis Hunter :). I don't like to think I would demolish anyone (except youtubers). I think Ayonmayor can become a good player. The hand eye coordination is concerning. In the 2nd round, I believe there will be better candidates that are more ready to play now.
    The youtuber is passionate about Mock drafts and is nerding it out and making choices with a random ranking system they don't understand, spreadsheets and raw athletic test measurements.

    13 for 294 with 7 and 134 against Hunter I believe.
    I do agree with you about the inconsistency, but there’s some upside with Ayonmayor

    I'm not spending a top 100 pick on a guy like this, although I will say the QB play was bad and he very well could be better as a pro than as a college player. If Caserio picks a WR in the 2nd rd, I hope it's one of the Iowa St guys/Royals/Bech etc...
