Responses:

Any chance they're moving up for Tunsil? -- nm - Inigo Apr 20, 11:08 6
- If they gave up that much for an OT, they should have their drafting privileges revoked. -- nm - David Apr 20, 11:10 4
  - Anymore so than moving up to draft one of two QBs while having an insane amount of money already invested in two other QBs? -- nm - Inigo Apr 20, 11:13 3
    - From an economic perspective, LT is now the most overvalued position in the NFL. - David Apr 20, 11:20 2
      - It's why you see guys like Okung and Clady moved - it's just not as important as solid line play across all 5 positions now. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 11:21 1
        
        Exactly. The cap should be spread much more evenly than for the LT to hog everything. - David Apr 20, 11:24
- I don't think you move that level of assets for an OL, no matter how good Tunsil might be. - ML Apr 20, 11:09
The Chase Daniel thing is absolutely maddening now. -- nm - David Apr 20, 11:05 8
- The Daniel and Bradford deals combine for an average salary more than any single QB in the NFL. -- nm - ML Apr 20, 11:05
- Yes it is, says the Mizzou fan who's favorite NFL team needs a QB. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 11:05 6
  - I'm first in line to say that you keep trying until you have a QB, and even I think this is beyond the pale. - David Apr 20, 11:12 1
    - I love me some Chase and would rather have had him on my roster than Butt Fumble. -- nm - Jim Apr 20, 11:24
  - You can have the Bradford -- nm - decline Apr 20, 11:08 3
    - He's going to have made like $100mil over his career and only one time been in the top half of the league at his position (and even then only 10 games - Will Hunting Apr 20, 11:11 2
      - He's in the Trent Green/Chris Chandler grouping for me. I know he can play, but fate is not his friend. - David Apr 20, 11:13 1
        
        I don't even know if he can play; he's only played in the most conservative passing attacks possible - Will Hunting Apr 20, 11:14
FML -- nm - decline Apr 20, 11:04
