It’s a great listen. Keep up the great work because your modeling career might not take off. :cheers:

Tough crowd! Thanks to those of you who have checked it out.

RE: observations about player values...

Player ratings are not adjusted for injuries and character concerns. That was disclosed in the article that you all accessed to read the rankings and also discussed on my show at length! So Payton Wilson's ranking is simply a reflection of how good of a fit he is for Miami's anticipated scheme. It does not reflect positional value, age, injury history & medical flags, etc. Players are, however, flagged with a letter to indicate that there's a deeper issue with the player that may disqualify them from being picked in a certain pick range. (I said on today's show that I would not draft Wilson in the first two rounds, for example)

That same logic applies to Caleb Williams. Of course a quarterback needy team would preempt other players who are better pure grades because the positional value of a quarterback transcends the value of other players.

As far as Brian Thomas Jr. goes; he's a raw player IMO. 2/3rds of his production came from 3 routes: hitches, curls and fades. The grade is a reflection of the player that he is now and I would, in a draft scenario, field a discussion about him versus all other players in the same tier as him to try to determine the best big picture decision, be that a 1-year forecast or a 3-year forecast for a player. (This was also discussed on today's show!)

Hope you all have a great draft week and some of you can rest easy...I am indeed not running the draft on Thursday and Friday.

A good sense of humor can go a long way on this site.
Let's just say it's a "target rich environment". - LOL

Why? He's a massively intelligent football mind who has the dream job we would all kill for. I think he's also done a very good job of not changing his outlook simply because the Phins now pay him. He's always been a glass half full guy, I guess that's why I like him.

He is extremely intelligent when it comes to football and the Dolphins. I’m not knocking the half glass full either. For me it’s just something changed when he left Locked On because I used to be able to listen to him daily on there. What it is I do not know, but I just can’t listen to Drive Time.

Do you know a better Dolphin analyst? His Xs & Os knowledge, as well as his player research, is superior to any Dolphin centric podcast I have seen.

agreed..

I’ll just appreciate him while he’s on a platform, do think he gets an opp to work for a team soon.

That’s Travis Wingfield and I can’t listen to him.

a big difference between Travis and Krabbs is Travis is now consumed with calling out and fighting with the haters

Kyle has an innate ability to not offend anyone while he analyzes
