I think the jury is still out on their ability to evaluate talent, you need more years of data following players from college to the NFL to really see if their system works, but I don't have anything against their brand of analytical approach to evaluation.

I’m not upset, I’m just pointing out what a joke that mock is.
Ogbo is a reach in the 2nd and O’Daniel and Williams are day 3 picks. Williams can’t even play outside. We have enough guys that can play inside already.
Also, KPL did not come in for Ragland, he came in for DJ. Ragland is the thumper. When we go to subs the thumper comes off the field and a safety lines up next to the base WILB (DJ/KPL/Hitchens).
Another ILB on day 2 is absolutely pointless unless Sutton plans on going with a LB instead of a S in those packages, which I highly doubt. A hybrid S/LB is more likely, but even then it’s unlikely we use a day 2 pick there. If we take a safety early, it’s going to be to replace Parker.
