    I think Barkley is more Trent Richardson than Zeke Elliott.

    Nah. He's a freak. Every time I watched Penn State play, he opened the game by returning the opening kickoff for a touchdown.

    Canton is in his future.

    Correct. I didn't expect that one to be difficult given that I was the one posting it. I just thought that scouting report was funny all of the things they said Brown didn't do well in that scouting report are among his strengths. I don't know if there is a receiver in the NFL who is as good as Brown at creating separation against man coverage.

    Speaking of Antonio Brown, this year's "Please draft this guy, Bears" player for me is Anthony Miller, whose highlight tape reminds me of AB.

    Could be, I just would never take a RB that high.

    Browns should go Barkley at 1 and Darnold at 4.

    Am I wrong, or did it seem like we used to know the No. 1 pick days in advance? Now, teams keep it secret until the moment it's announced. I think that's probably because of salary slotting?

    I think sometimes it's just obvious, so that's why you get teams negotiating with a top pick well in advance. But most years I think the team at the top has to wait and see if they get an offer they can't refuse.

    I'll say this for Baker Mayfield: If he's No. 1, he's a guy who wants to be the No. 1 pick, who wants to be picked by the team that stinks every year, and would love nothing more than to quarterback that team to the playoffs and shove it up everybody's ass. And then make said shoving motion on the field once they qualified.

    He reminds me of a cocky MMA fighter who is great for the brand's PR but gets his ass handed to him when the actual fight happens.
