In this thread: people who have read other people's draft opinions for 2 months and watched a YouTube highlights package, and me being a buzzkill.

Yeah you say this every year. We're not draft experts. Neither are you, and neither are a lot of the people getting paid a lot to write about the draft. Hell, Grigson is one of many who proved you don't have to be good at scouting to get a job drafting players.

It is better than back in the day when all people did was check out 40 times and judge guys. Now only dam does that.

But I do think some dudes get super douchey when it comes to the draft. The guys that say things like a cb has bad hips or some dumb shit

40 times matter
Bench reps matter

It matters in that it exposes guys who might slip through with bad speed or strength. Like Teez Tabor, good tape and instincts but I don't know how he plays in the league as a 4.7 guy.

To me it shows me if a guy performed much better surrounded by great teammates/system or if he's a real athlete on his own

WTF else do you need to see?

Show me a highlight reel and tell me his college and level of competition and I'll tell you if he's worth therisk or not. Any pick is a fuckin gamble, nobody knows if these guys want to do anything after they get paid
