DRAFT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been gone for 3 weeks.  Barely able for any updates..  So it looks like every position (  except long snapper )  is a possibility. 

It looks like there's a real chance we take the proverbial best available player.

Also..  since most if don't think this,,  we trade up to pick someone ,  or trade back and pick up more draft revenue.  Both of these usually pisses the tribe off  lol.

Good to see you OP.


The long snapper drafter has taken his 7 year plan to the corn state so we are safe there.

I would not at all be surprised by a trade...up or down.

I believe that Dan means what he says -- He may step sideways a little, but I believe that he intends to make every move a forward facing one. We will never have the advantage he has when evaluating talent. So, if (when..??) he decides to trade (up OR down) I think we have to give him the benefit of the doubt... he definitely knows a lot more about what he's doing than we do.!! 

So, in a bout of self-actualization, I realized that our desire to know what is going to happen hits a wall (really, an immovable object) that stops us in our tracks -- without regard to what Maslow has to say. The problem is we observe and evaluate BPA by criteria of our own OR by where the players are 'listed' on a Big Board. We THINK we know who the "best" players are and therefore can in some way figure out what Dan is going to do. Unfortunately, the BPA has nothing to do with what 'others' think. It is solely and completely determined by what the Panthers (re: DAN) thinks. And since none of us (I assume.??) has access to the Panthers draft board, there is no way to know what the BPA is.  In a way, it's a LOT easier to guess who is going to be picked when we have a glaring need. At least then we know where Dan is looking. BPA --- I seriously have no idea where any player is located on the Panthers board - no matter where the consensus says they should be. It's a real quandary. Only Dan (and a select few other Panthers) actually KNOW which 4th round player is at the TOP of the Panthers board.!!!  --- Just kidding.!! 

And Yeah.... Trades both directions should be expected (probably).????  --  ¿Quien sabe?
