Shows why we should not buy into what all of these so-called draft experts are selling.

I remember Hub absolutely hating him and said NFL Guards would dominate him.

He was thrashing around B&I within the last month or so.
Has he disappeared again?

Thing about Graham this past season is even though he carried a lot of sloppy weight playing at 320 he still had a hell of a year. I think that is why he shed so much weight for the combine. Playing closer to 305 or so should help his game. You are absolutely right about Donald though. No way anyone should compare Graham to Donald.

He just said he's open to it in his presser.

Ok now I’m starting to think there is just too much smoke for something not to happen.

Not really the same logic but I see the link you're making. For one, third round picks aren't expected to be starters when they come in. Second, I'm not certain that this team would have drafted Cooper Dejean, but did need a DE, and Sweat is worth that pick. Third, that line about the thirty-second pick is tiresome, but notice that right now the team knows what slot this third round pick is now.
Here, you are getting a pass rusher that would come in and start, who has put up double digit sacks in this league and who does deserve a pretty penny in return. You are getting it with a pick that could legitimately go to DE, and you are getting one that you can count on being better than a rookie. That's a targeted investment, and one I think you can be more confident than one is in Claypool, and is far cheaper than the price to bring in Sweat. You can't build a team that way, but you can bring in an important role player or two that way

Don’t waste your time. He won’t be able to reply for a very long time because he can’t stop being a douche canoe

No shyte Sherlock. Do you think it's a good idea? Does @bamainatlanta think it is?

I have no fucking clue if it's a good idea or not. In a vacuum? Like, can he be viable there? Maybe but the only way we'll find that out is if they end up drafting a guy who can only play , or was a world beater at RT like Membou and I don't see that happening.

Hah, I see! Well, honestly, you never know who else might share that opinion, and the post I responded to had a lot of opinion in it that is quite popular. I don't think a three year vet is trading away for an aging asset, as the player should be hitting their prime in the following seasons, but lots of people could feel the other way. So let's consider that an assessment "for the room" instead of for Montucky.
Besides, criticism of the Claypool trade is warranted. At the time I found it defensible, but in retrospect it turned out to be another one for the manure heap. You pay GMs to have some amount of foresight, and in the end, that one is a mark against our GM.

Yes you do.
If they trade up - Negative
If they trade down - Negative
If they don't trade - Negative

I want quality over quantity. A true star would be nice.
