    Well that changes things, I'm very excited to hear about who this is and how you got them to talk. Thanks for sharing your information even though I hope we end up with Johnny or Clowney.

    Whatever. People like you get all sensitive because someone else have a difference of opinion and call people trolls and or try to board bully them (like you're trying to do now)... But that's cool though because that's how you people do.

    He shared with me the information and how he got it....and I know him to be a guy of his word, regardless. I would have believed him without a showing of proof. He's just passing on what he learned. If it doesn't fit your assumptions and narratives, then move along and post in another thread.

    Anything interesting from the presser? Video from Texans website never works on my work laptop.

    My buddy is saying they pretty much announced they are looking to trade the pick?

    Now is de timeeeee....... Tell us what you know!!!!

    Kiper just promised 15 sacks from Clowney first year, all while calling him a once in three decade player. The defensive version of Andrew Luck.

    I think someone was a tad bit drunk this morning.

    Don't waste your time. Literally said nothing. He might as well tried to play a game of charades.

    He pretty much just clarified what he said before. How they try to evaluate, rate, and rank prospects independent of team need. That he knows who he wants to pick if they keep the first pick but that they're open to trading it if they feel it's in the best interest of the team.

    Nothing we haven't heard before. No new information.

    Does HeyNow! know Paul Tagliabue? That's all I get from the pics he posted, and how he said this person wouldn't be there this time. If so, why does Tagliabue know who we're drafting?!

    But seriously, thanks for the info Ric, can't wait til the draft is over with.

    I'll tell what I know....I know that Hey Now has some pretty good insight on this relative to some conversations he had with some fairly reliable sources. That's what I know.

    Kiper is a damn fool. I can't imagine why people keep putting stock in what that man says year after year after year.

    Yeap... I see a lot of people with years invested in this site who bully other members with differences of opinions. Name calling, etc.

    I understand Mr Nick's point of view completely (and I never said he was wrong). He's speaking of a player being the best (out of the other selections) and I'm talking about the success of a team with that player (regardless of the circumstances)... Which is really two different discussions centered around a player being the right pick. But Hey Now responds with insults. Which wasn't necessary. He's a veteran. I've seen Clutch get into it with LOF's without insulting them (at least the post I've seen).

    It's for the media, to give them BS double talk quotes to fill their articles with over the next week.
