Heard a podcast over the weekend with former Saints GM Randy Mueller. They had Mueller rank players based solely on film study without knowing how anyone else (Kiper, Jeremiah, etc) had ranked anyone. He listed Zamir White as his #1 back because he can play three downs and still be a threat to take it all the way on any snap, which he says the other backs in this class don’t offer.

The article below (written by "James Morgan") compares Zamir White to former Cowboys' RB, Marion Barber.  That would be a heck of a pick!

Heard Brad Hopkins on Sirius yesterday morning. Said he has watched tons of film on all the OL guys, and thinks Ekwonu is the best prospect he’s seen in 10 years. Says he’s a mean cuss and just destroys people.

He or Gardner to me are the two best prospects in the draft as far as being clean and very very good.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

There are a few players I do not see on the draft list that have not been drafted that are pretty surprising to me.  Make sure as you are prepping for your next pick that you use a few trusted draft resources other than just looking at the player sheet.  (Such as nfl.com combine or cbs sports or whatever draft site you like.)

Each year we have done this draft there are 8, 10, 12 guys that get drafted that are not on the sheet to start with.  

Now the next obvious question is 'Why are there players that are not on the sheet?'

I start populating the players on the sheet a few weeks maybe even a month before the combine.  I use a couple of sites that actually rank players into the 300 or 400 hundreds.  Most sites have a big board that maybe goes to 100.

Thus if the big sites do not list a player he may not show up in the draft list, maybe they forgot about the player or maybe the guy just rose up suddenly into draft rankings after the shrine bowl or senior bowl or after the combine. 

In any case have at least a quick look at other sites and position rankings so you do not miss out on literally hidden gems.

shoot me a list w/names, school, pos, ht/wt if you have them and I can add them in later. 

Sheet usually has 1000.  This one had 500.  Added 8 so far and we are only up to pick 171. The next 90picks will have more.  

The 8:

That list of 8 has two of my favorite picks (Tyler Smith and Zion McCollum) and one of mine (Allgeier, who is not a huge favorite).

hahahahahha @T0mShane took that chump Jack Coan and left me stud muffin Bailey Zappe.

What a loser! 

Fast forward to December 2025: Zach Wilson, studio analyst at the Big Sky Network, gets caught on an open mic using a racial slur to describe an Italian fullback; Bailey Zappe is making $500 a week as the third string QB on the Saskatchewan RoughRiders; and in Giants Stadium (as New York reverts to calling it) is roaring as backup QB Jack Coan leads the G-Men to victory, and entire sections of Coan-heads scream their lungs out during a three week period known as “Coansanity.”
