I remembered Hart as taller than he was, and thats exactly what I meant. You can allege what YOU believe I think I meant, but only I know the context in which it was written. I thought they were of similar height / weight/ and thats what I meant.
Which changes like the wind.
Quote:Especially him saying we should trade down and pick him towards that spot.
Yep. Giving away value in the draft is stupid, just because you fall in love with player x.
Teams that ace the draft understand this concept.
If you don't have to select Tom Brady until round 6, then you're a donkey if you reach for him in round 2, just because you happen to think he'll be good.

so if the jaguars trade down and draft him at 10, are you going to laugh if he becomes a bust?
what if the pats draft him at 10 somehow and then he becomes a bust? is your head gonna explode all over the fryalator?

So it's ok when you change the context of what you meant after the fact, but if someone else employs sarcasm that whooshes over your head like those spitballs you dodge on your lunch break and you don't pick up on it until it's pointed out to you, they're just changing their context so as not to be wrong?

You couldn't pick a worse example then the Brady situation.
Quote:so... "id pick mack at 10 but think hes gonna be a bust and would laugh if that happened because its ok to bust at 10 but not at 3."
If you pick a player with appropriate value and he busts, its better than giving away value and the player still busting.
I think Mack will be good, but not great in the pro's. But I would LOL at all of you if he "busts" because you all seem like such school girls in your fandom towards him. He's a decent pass rushing LB, not excellent pass rushing LB. Yet, you gush like he's the next stud.

Probably, but it was the first that came to mind. The concept still stands and has legitimacy.

No, no it doesn't at all.
Demarcus ware came from Troy. Mack would not be a reach, as he is being projected as a top 5 pick regardless.
Quote:No, no it doesn't at all.
Obviously we should wait till the 6th to take a QB. Get appropriate value on our future HOFer.

Actually, no one really knows. Which further shows how ignorant you are, thinking you do.

You're lying. Either back then or now.
When people posted pictures of both, you didn't say what you JUST said above. You said
Quote:You're right. I jumped to conclusions with that. I was wrong.
Quote:No, no it doesn't at all.
The concept of draft value and overdrafting players doesn't have legitimacy to you?
Ok, feel free to exit the convo.
You're of the Gene Smith mindset, obviously, and will take players regardless of their perceived worth and you'll always never get the max value out of a draft than you could have.

You act like fans on this board are the only ones that think Mack will be a very good player in the NFL.
Just about everyone who covers the draft has him near the top 5.

I guess you missed/ intentionally left out where I admitted that might not have been the best example, but that the concept still stands for anyone above a 80 IQ.

if he is only going to be good then it doesnt make sense to take him at 10 anyway. lets just face it, youre a blowhard. you dont like him, or you just get enjoyment out of these situations.
im guessing business is slow at BK right now if youre able to reply to all these posts so quick.
i personally want teddy in the first round. i do like mack, but im not a mack fan boy. and i think its funny that youre trying to call everyone a mack fan boy just because they are disagreeing with your drivel. youve been dancing around like boitano in icecapades this whole thread.

I'd have him about 9.
3 & 9 are not really that close in terms of draft value.
If the Jags trade back add selections and get Mack at pick 6, you can't complain about that, and I wouldn't, either.
But if the Jags simply take Mack at 3 and value be darned because "they fell in love with the player" then, yes, I do have an issue with that philosophy. Mack isn't the be-all end all of the top 10 in this draft. Missing out on him isn't going to ruin anyone's draft. There are enough other great players that will also be available. Never, never throw away value in the draft. Its a road to nowhere.

Nobody has him at 9 but you.

Ever considered that they have Mack at 3? Or is your draft knowledge far superior? You haven't watched more than a couple of highlights on youtube. Do you really think your grade or 'big board' is accurate or something?
Mr. "Mack is built just like Larry Hart" lol
