I'm amazed at how many of these young upstarts on twitter that gain thousands of followers seriously don't know what they are looking at. 

I actually agree with the majority of Goodall's stuff, but that Taylor thread was very telling of either his bias against the player or his inability to analyze tackle play.  Or both.

Despite the longshot nature of this signing -  I'm glad they are being proactive about placing depth trying to prevent another 2018 situation.

Couldn't you say that about anybody though? People see what they want to see, regardless. Two people rarely ever see the same exact thing when it comes to any prospect. Some look for different things than others, etc etc. That's why it's best to get multiple takes, from multiple people, as well as doing your own scouting of said player/s and never base anything off of what just one person said/thinks.

I don't think anybody is bad-mouthing Taylor. If you're referencing me with that, thinking I'm bad-mouthing him, you're wrong because I'm not. I said he's a good player, but he isn't a top 10 pick talent wise in this draft imo.

I think it'd be a big mistake if we took him #7 overall, just like I thought it would have been a mistake to take Fournette #4 overall in 2017 and right now, that pick is looking like a huge mistake.
