    BOLD predictions!!!

    What bold prediction do you have about tonight's draft?

    I'll start it off...

    Tennessee will not stay at 5. Their GM is all about acquiring extra picks. The Browns want Trubisky, but the bolder prediction is that the NYGiants trade a R1 next year in order to get OJ Howard (right in front of the NYJets).

    My bold prediction.....

    The Steelers will trade back out of the 1st for the 1st time since ??? and pick up 2 extra picks instead.

    I could see that. A team wanting a QB, trades in front of the Saints.


    (Then... the Steelers get Peppers early in R2. )

    Maybe not the boldest of predictions but it's still early, and the Steelers never trade out of the 1st, so best I could come up with during the day's 1st cup.

    Re: BOLD predictions!!!

    The Steelers take a QB. (I hate myself for writing that)

    Browns pass on Garrett, take Trubisky #1 overall.

    3 QB's go in the the top 10. (most of the time that's not really bold but with this class I'll say it is)

    Bengals trade up ahead of Carolina to draft Fournette.
    1. Graham Barton, C, Duke 2. Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida 3. Maason Smith, DT, LSU 3. Max Melton, CB, Rutgers 4. Blake Fisher, OT, Notre Dame 6. Tommy Eichenberg, ILB, Ohio State 6. MJ Devonshire, CB, Pittsburgh

    the giants, saints, steelers, chiefs, cardinals, and chargers ALL pass on the chance to replace the old guard by not drafting Trubisky, Kizer, Watson, Mahomes, and Webb

    That is actually extremely BOLD.

    Colbert might have tipped his hand, with his comments about the "fifth year option"...

    I think the Steelers will be working the phone lines hard to move up in the 2nd round. That may not be so bold, so, we take a player that has been sliding of late, Humphrey.

    That is the catch isn't it. Better chance at a better overall draft, but no day 1 pick. However, as of right now, the Patriots don't pick until round 3. At least we don't wait that long.

    Re: BOLD predictions!!!

    Bengals or Cowboys draft Gareon Conley in the 2nd round

    The hometown Eagles fans don't loudly boo the 1st round pick

    No one on this forum complains about the 1st round pick tonight

    Browns trade up to no. 2 overall and get Trubisky

    Cowboys draft Tim Williams in the first round

    I think a lot had it right with WJ3 last year but the Bengals stole him from us. Thought the Burns pick was a panic one after that and may have been. So far happy it turn out that way now though.

    In psychology, they call that "delayed gratification."

    (I hear you, though.)

    excuse me if I have no empathy for the Pats though but yes its a catch 22 for us for sure ....

    sadly I expect the Cheatriots to finagle themselves back into rd 1 or early rd 2

    it could be / would be gratifying if we moved back say 3-5 spots still got a quality Edge or CB and an additional 3 in our pocket ...

    but what if they took a WR after trading back ( OUCH ) not sure they make a bandaid big enough for that one for me

    It wouldn't surprise me if they end up with 'the Titans' #5 pick'.(or something just as wrong) They just seem to find a way to keep ahead. But this year, they don't have much to trade with. Seems nobody wanted JimmyG, and Butler's not worth losing out on a 1st round pick. I don't know why the Browns would want more mid-late round picks, but that's probably who would make the trade.

    watch them send Kony Ealy and Butler to the Titans for the 5th pick .. ( Titans could use a pass rusher and a DB )

    then trade back from 5 to 12 gaining a bunch of picks from the Browns
