Brian and Ray, do you think this is falling in a way that a top RB will be there at 49 or you think there will be an early run on RB tomorrow night?

Ray Fittipaldo

11:20

Still a few more picks in first round but yeah so far it's looking like RBs will be available in the second round. But will there be a run early in the round?

Brian Batko

11:20

Dolphins could probably use another WR. Tua with KJ Hamler would be pretty fun to watch.

Tim

11:20

Based on what we now have seen, still a wr or is rb coming more into focus at 49? What say you ray and brian?

Ray Fittipaldo

11:21

I went with Akers in my final mock draft so I'm sticking with RB

Brian Batko

11:21

And I still think one of Tee Higgins, Chase Claypool, Michael Pittman, Laviska Shenault and Denzel Mims will be there at 49. But it's getting dicey.

11:23

Whoa, Green Bay trades up into this spot?!

FittyCent & BillyBatsko

11:23

Am I being blocked?

Brian Batko

11:23

No, you're a first-round edge-rusher around here.

David

11:24

Yeah Ray you got me excited about Akers now to the point I'm going to be disappointed if that doesn't happen.

Ray Fittipaldo

11:24

Packers take Jordan Love. There's your four QBs

Brian Batko

11:25

Holy cow. Did NOT see that one coming.

Nate

11:25

Do you see the Steelers going LB or OL if the RBs and WRs they like are gone?

Ray Fittipaldo

11:25

Hmmm, probably OL

Dude

11:25

Shocker

11:25

WOW!!!

Ray Fittipaldo

11:26

So much for Love to the Steelers. Ha ha.

Tim

11:26

Brett Favre just laughed hard

Dave

11:27

Still think it’s a tad early to be feeling good that a top RB will be there. Hope so though...

11:27

I get it happened with Favre but damn Aaron going to be pissed!!! Probably just like Favre but....

Mark

11:27

Pack relying on wr depth in draft?

Mike

11:28

Arod demands trade to the cheaters haha

Brian Batko

11:29

I do not understand this one for the Packers. Late-night late-first draft drama.

Titan in Charlotte

11:30

Doesn't look like a RB will be drafted in first round. Waiting game for tomorrow

Dave

11:31

Dont jinx us😊

Brian Batko

11:31

Teams looove getting that fifth-year option on first-round QBs. Maybe even smart teams. But I still think this is a strange pick by Green Bay.

Tim

11:33

Who seems to be sliding, higgins, shenault jr that may fall into our lap in 22 picks?

Brian Batko

11:33

Chase Claypool, Michael Pittman, all the RBs

Ray Fittipaldo

11:33

Shenault would be very fortunate for the Steelers.

11:34

Seahawks for Jordyn Brooks

Brian Batko

11:34

Jordyn Brooks over Patrick Queen. Huh.

Dude

11:34

And now Queen to the ravens

Tim

11:35

Who are the ratbirds targeting?

Ray Fittipaldo

11:35

Gotta be LB

Mike

11:37

Queen is right there for them. Fml

What does shenault add to our wr room? Not tall, and not fast. Basically same measurables as juju

Brian Batko

11:37

Adds an offensive weapon. I don't like him more than Claypool, but I could see why the Steelers might want him.

Ray Fittipaldo

11:37

Shenault gets YAC. Throw it to him short or throw it to him down the field. He's good in all phases.

Buccs72

11:39

I'd rather have Michael Pittman of USC. Bigger, great hands and very tough. Just as fast as most of the receivers still available.

Mike

11:41

That question about shenault wasn’t supposed to be mean, I just don’t know what he adds. YAC won’t be as good in nfl. He’s only 4.58. I can understand if you’re steelers and you want big height 6’3+ or speed, but you already have 2 similar players in juju and washington
