[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 495730"] Thompson will likely have about 250 guys on the board. And even if he's got a particular guy as the BPA for the upcoming pick, you'll never know it if somebody takes him in front of us. Whether Thompson will actually take a particular player we discuss is not entirely the point. These discussions make you think about the kinds of player that are needed, how they fit into the roster, what they cost, the opportunity cost of taking that kind of player over somebody else or a player at another position. It's also a way of testing and refining your knowledge. Last year at this time I identified about a 1/2 dozen low to mid-round picks on the GBPG forum, in part based on a close look at the East-West Shrine game. One was B.J. Coleman, who TT did in fact pick. Another was Michael Brewster, who went UFA to Jacksonville; he was their starter at center by week 3. Another was Bobby Wagner who I liked for the third round. Seattle "reached" for this guy at #47 (most teams won't touch a 6' 0" ILB at that spot), and he ends up being all-rookie. So, when I mention Cory Fuller as a good 6th. or 7th. round developmental pick, circumstances dictate it's a long shot TT will take him. Any pick projection is a long shot at this juncture. Then again, that's not really the point. [/QUOTE]
