Dead, plenty of good players within the 1st 15 picks in the 4th round and we have two high selections.

Wr Riley Ridley
Wr Hakeem Butler
MLB Mack Wilson
OG Beau Benshwazel from Wisconsin ( who churn out O lineman like nobody's business)

A handful of others also. Plenty of value picks

Ridley and Butler aren’t gonna make it man. Too slow and sloppy.

Wilson’s the next fuckin’ Bama ILB bust waiting to happen, I can just feel it.

I prescribe to the Athletic, (worth every penny IMO) and Ted Nguyen writes up some pretty solid peices with beoken down plays to boot.
He knew Conley was rating high before the rest of the league.
Ted is really high on Hakeem Butler, lets see what happens.
I figured Mack the Alabama LB was going to go in round 2, but it shows what the rest of us know compared to the league scouts

Looks like we picked a Lee Smith clone.

Ath this point we almost have to take Mack Wilson just on the value alone.

VERY interesting pick. An Edelman type player.

    Quick not fast
    Smaller
    Pure possession
    Sure-handed
    High football IQ
    GREAT route guy
    And white.

I really like the pick.

What's really surprising to me is he had a 35" vertical jump. At 5'10", for a white kid, that's an impressive number.

I think when our strength guys get hold of him, he could become one of those Raiders favorites who's never flashy but always good.

This was a good player to trade up for. Packers could easily have gone for him with the next pick.

NFL.com has a ton of WRs ranked ahead of this guy, but none of them can actually catch the football. Anyone notice that? Under strengths, it's all about their speed, their juke moves, jumping ability, whatever, then in weaknesses, you see "drops," "bad ball skills," etc. It's like everyone forgot what WRs are supposed to do out there on the fuckin field.

Mack Wilson still sitting there. Teams must have seen something very bad in him, or they're just tired of watching Bama LBs bust in the NFL.

I love white slot guys lol...Hunter Renfrow just sounds like he's gonna be a chain mover with reliable hands. Anybody know the low down on him?
Mayock must have used analytics this year because his two 4th rounders tested in the 90 percentile. Those numbers are right up there with the top 5 DE's and TE's.
I don't know jack shit about either of them, but they tested high.

I'm very intrigued with the Renfrow pick. Sounds like a good receiver with great hands. Could be a real weapon in the slot and on screen plays.
