    Braddock also said Patterson over Hopkins. Hopkins wouldn't do well.

    Braddock just throws darts at players names. I don't really trust many ppls analysis.

    I get your point, but Prescott looked a lot better that Romo did behind the same line. The running game was improved though.

    Who do you think are the Carrs and Jimmy G's of this class?

    And they still lost in their only playoff game.

    Braddock's predictions are routinely all over the place. I have no faith in anything he says

    Please don't mention or post picks ahead of the live draft. If you do then use the spoiler :)

    Any of the top QBs. They are all ranked 2nd round QBs. You just gotta pick the Derek Carr and stay away from the Brock Osweillers.

    No clue because we don't know if they are staying at 25 or not, but one thing is certain, every network will be on commercial when it happens.

    I already know all the picks but cannot disclose them. ;)

    9:45ish-10:00ish? ... if they stay at 25.

    I'm very confident that we will be moving up to take a QB. It's a lock.

    The Post-Standard reports Texas Tech QB Patrick Mahomes is expected to go in the top 10.

    Per reporter Matthew Fairburn, the Chiefs are "known to love" Mahomes, and are considering a trade up. The top 10 isn't lacking for quarterback-needy teams, including the team Fairburn covers, the Bills, at No. 10. Although this is considered a relatively poor quarterback class, teams appear prepared to go as crazy as usual pursuing football's most important position.
    ____________________________
    NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports the Chiefs are the team making the "most noise" about trading up, perhaps into the top 10.

    Could the Chiefs be looking for an exit strategy from the Alex Smith era? Syracuse.com reported earlier Thursday that Texas Tech QB Patrick Mahomes is expected to go in the top 10, and that the Chiefs are "known to love him." That's still a fair amount of dot connecting, but perhaps sensing a window that won't be open much longer, the Chiefs are on the hunt for an impact player.
    ____________________________
    Profootballtalk reports Florida LB Jarrad Davis won't get past the Dolphins at No. 22.

    Considered a surefire first-rounder, Davis has been bandied about as a mid-evening pick. The Miami Herald has the Dolphins locked into a defensive end, but perhaps that's under the assumption Davis won't be there.
    ____________________________
    The Sporting News Eric Galko writes that Alabama T Cam Robinson's "range goes from fourth overall to the Jaguars to a team like the Giants or Texans moving up above the Bucs at No. 19 to get him."

    "That said," Galko relays, "if he’s not taken by the Bengals at No. 9, most expect him to go to the Ravens at No. 16." The Ravens connection is one that Draft Analyst's Tony Pauline likewise reported earlier this week.

    Is that right? 5 minutes per pick, takes us to about 9. Maybe a little after. How did you get 9:45?

    Really? This is the class that the chiefs want to move up 20 spots to take a QB??
