JackDRams not liking Baldy:
Nfl.com is usually the last place I trust for rankings. They're so incompetent.
Who's the first place you look for rankings? Tell me and I'll compare their rankings to NFL.com over the last few years and lets see which has the better accuracy rate. I think we'll find they're pretty much the same.

I haven't found your statement about them being incompetent to be true. Or should I say, I haven't found them to be any more incompetent than any other rating organization. What I like about them is that they set a numerical ranking. Whereas CBS, for example, merely ranks them in their perceived order at a position and predicts the round they should be taken.

For example, they list four OTs with Scherff ranked #1 followed by Collins, Peat and Flowers in that order projected to go in the 1st round. At OG they have Cann and Tomlinson rated #1 and #2 and projected to go in the second round. How much do they like Scherff better than they like Collins? Unknown.

Here's what CBS says about Scherff: "PLAYER COMPARISON: Zack Martin, Cowboys -- Scherff is athletic enough to remain outside at tackle but his build and physicality could be even more effective inside at guard".

So why not rate him compared to other OGs instead of other OTs? NFL.com lumps them all together as OL and compares their relative merits as a group. Using their their own criteria of course.

Here's what NFL.com says about Scherff: "Like former Hawkeye Riley Reiff, Scherff has measurables and traits to play tackle in the league but might be better suited to play guard."

I see no difference.

In any case though, I'm not taking anything they say as the truth, I'm merely looking at their relative rankings. Both in a particular year and compared to other years. I could have used other sites rankings but I've noticed through the years that they all pretty much have the same top 100 players with only minor deviations.

My own personal feeling on this subject is that you should stick with one organization or one evaluator and follow them every year. It's the only way I've found to rank the relative merits of the players in the draft as a whole and at particular positions when comparing one draft to another draft. It really doesn't matter which organization of individual evaluator you use because we're just talking about trends and relative evaluations here.

If you want accuracy you should just follow the opinions of ours own experts here at the ROD. (y)

It appears Athos got captured by Richelieu's men before he could make his pick last night.

Sorry all.

Got distracted by a girl.

Chargers decide to go all out on the o-line and pick small school, senior bowl wonder, Ali Marpet. OG.

How do you possibly get distracted by a girl? Nice pick.

With the 49th pick in the draft, the Chiefs fill their other hole on the offence (hopefully) with a perfect compliment to Maclin:

Nelson Agholor WR USC

NFL Media analyst Mike Mayock said USC WR Nelson Agholor is "one of the best route runners in this draft."

"I think he has more upside than (former USC WRs) Robert Woods or Marqise Lee," Mayock said. Initially lost in the shuffle in a deep WR class, Agholor has recently emerged as a darkhorse first rounder. "You can play him outside, you can play him inside," NFL Media analyst Daniel Jeremiah said. "I know he has a slight frame but he has burst and can also return punts and kicks. He has a lot of value and is a very, very bright guy who has impressed teams with his football knowledge. The top of the second round is where I have him, in the 30s, but I can easily see him sliding up into the first round." Agholor, who caught 104 passes for 1,313 yards (12.6) and 12 scores in 2014, posted a 4.44 forty with a 1.53 10-yard split at the combine.

Instead, with the 18th pick in the second round of the 2015 ROD NFL Mock, The Buffalo Bills will strengthen the other side of the line with the selection of:

DT Michael Bennett, The Ohio State University

I think there are a lot of solid players but very few elite players. A good group to fill out your roster but don't look to fill your team with playmakers.
I wonder if this ^ was what Fisher was hinting at, when he said earlier this off-season, ' ... this Draft isn't that deep... '!

Nice pick, although he's a 'Little Light in the weight dept.'! I might have gone for Xavier Cooper from Washington State, But Ohio are the Champs!

I admit I had to scramble a bit here this morning. Didn't really have a backup plan. :)

Wanted to beef up either side of the line here. Was also considering OT Cedric Ogbuehi except wasnt sure about injury or OG Tre Jackson (another guy who could stand to bulk up but hey we aren't in the first round any more).

With the 51st pick in the 2015 NFL draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select:
2552424.jpg

Phillip Dorsett (WR)
HT: 5'10" WT: 185LBS.

POSITION: WR

SCHOOL: Miami

ARM LENGTH: 30 1/4"

Overview
Second-team All-ACC wide receiver in 2014. Ten of his 36 catches were for touchdowns and he averaged 24.2 yards per catch. Took part in 2015 Senior Bowl practices, but did not play in the game due to injury. In 2013, played in eight games and missed five games due to a partially torn MCL. Caught 13 passes for 272 yards and 2 touchdowns. In 2012, led Miami in receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns. Had four games of 100-plus yards.

I really like this guy and think he's a perfect fit for the Eagles offense. Our boy Sammy finally gets some weapons.
