Senior Analyst, NFL Draft Department is fine, thank you.

I see just one inherent problem with the job requirements that would disqualify a number of people coming over from the old website . . . GOOD WRITING SKILLS. Sorry, Syd, but I think proper use of a spellchecker should also be a requirement.

Also . . . the title of “Draft Guru” seems a bit too self edifying to suit me. If Phil Scrunkle wants…[Read more]

One thing I neglected to mention in the article . . . After the 19th pick is announced, my boss texted, “Wunkle’s the man.” I had to text back, “Even a blind squirrel gets a nut every now and then”.

Glad to know that your expectations of me are still high, Durakbane. Where much is given, much is required. I’m convinced that the quarterback situation will be more clear by season’s end; whether it’s someone on the roster or in the 2016 draft. You use the word “competence”. We need players that are both competent and effective in carrying out…[Read more]

Thanks, Dude. I appreciate the kind words. Of course you realize that, if I get 43 and 77 right as well, I’ll be impossible to live with until the 0216 draft. All kidding aside, I’m really looking forward to seeing how the rest of the draft plays out.

Either that or Bill Wunkle was incredibly lucky. You can officially call me “amazingly smart” if I ever get all 32 picks in the first round correct. A lot of things had to fall into place for me to get two picks this far down in the draft actually come to fruition.

On a side note . . . Does anyone else see the ironic humor in Shane Ray going…[Read more]

Not only will Shelton help stuff the run, but he’ll also collapse the pocket and drive the center back towards the opposing QB; thus giving the passer less room to step up into the pocket when trying to throw the football. This is immediate pressure in the QB’s face. I love the pick . . . not because it made me look good, but rather because this…[Read more]

Bill Wunkle will be in the room. CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Less than eight hours to go. I’m SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who’s with me?

Thanks to all for your participation. The new article has been posted.

Ice, I certainly understand your reservations about taking an O-lineman in the first round that’s not a LT. Cameron Erving was a left tackle before last season, and quite a good one at that. He has the skillset and the moxie to play ANY position along the O-line at the NFL level. If Erving is indeed the best player on the board when the Browns are…[Read more]

There’s been so much talk about the Browns doing this, that or the other thing that there’s got to be something to it. After all . . . where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
