What do you guys think the chances are Becton drops into Hawks draft range because of his flagged test? No one cares anymore do they? The " cooking" comment might do more damage.
I hope he falls, but I just don’t see it.

How the hell did DK drop? You get a couple teams talking shit about a prospect and well you know the rest.

Very true, and then the kid comes in with a chip on his shoulder and something to prove. Fingers crossed it works out for us again!

Damn Hawks probably won't pick until about 11 p.m. here. Not a fan of this Eastern Time Zone as it relates to sports.

save you the trouble - if you only care about what the Hawks get, it'll be diddly squat on Thursday - just an extra pick or two on Friday. 90%.

Good point. Probably not worth the loss of sleep.

I like Jake Heaps. Down to earth and doesn't have a goofy schtik like the clowns on the morning show. Seems he has found his post football calling. I haven't read this yet but looking forward to it tomorrow.

while i agree with the premise i dispute his conclusions. despite the tremendous qualify and depth of receivers in this class, i expect no more than 2 WR/TE's to be chosen, given:

A. other more pressing needs
B. COVID-19 - lost offseason means less acclimation time for newcomers, which is particularly hurtful to receivers vs.
other positions, requiring precision timing sync with the QB.
C. Phillip Dorsett and Gregg Olsen is 2 new receivers to break in and acclimate to Russ already - see B above.

I think the skill positions are set. The best way to maximize Wilson's skill is Oline
