Quote:Then why can't I find anybody saying Carlos Hyde is not a first round talent? I have not heard or read anything about him possibly dropping into the second round.

Why do you post statements like this? You make points with absolutely no factual backing and you come across as being ignorant. You give no thought before posting and you don't do your research first. No wonder no one takes your opinions seriously on this forum. Here's a link to the CBS.com mockers.

NONE have him going in the first. And it's likely because RB's don't have the same value they used to have and this is a deep draft at the skill positions.

Quote:Sure I do - at the mocks on NFL.com, of course. And they all have Carlos Hyde going in the first round.

And here's the NFL.com version. Only two of the four mock drafters have him being drafted 1st.

Of one of the two who didn't mock draft him in the first, Bucky Brooks both former player and NFL scout, meets both of your criteria. Provide more useful posts instead of just posting something to argue with someone about.
