Any predictions on where our players may land? Rumors, tweets, etc.

#Bama WR Amari Cooper has emerged as the consensus No. 1 player at his position, according to GMs and scouts. Kevin White a close 2nd.

Mayock the first (that I know of) to suggest Alabama's Landon Collins won't be the first safety picked. Likes ASU's Damarious Randall.

Thought this tweet was interesting

Think he's also the only to say that. Mayock, whom I like a lot, seems to always have one or two players that he just wants to have a different opinion than the masses on. It gives him the "see, I told you" opportunity. If he's wrong, he's able to say "well my personal opinion is so and so is better, but it only takes one team to prefer a player for him to go higher". It's a no lose for him.

Coop to the Jags would be interesting. They've got some solid WR talent down there he could pair with and Bortles has potential. Though I still wish he'd end up with a proven QB.

I want to see him end up with a bonfide #1 WR. Atlanta or NYG would be ideal.

Would love San Fran to move up to get him but it would take too much.

Who has a realistic shot of being drafted this year?

Cooper
Collins
Fowler
Dickson
White
Depriest
Kouandjio

That is my guess, though I really hope Sims get drafted.

Yeldon should go in the first 2-3 rounds

Sims will get drafted

Yeldon is a very possible second rounder IMO. Lot of analysts sleeping on him but he's arguably the better all around back and could fit in seamlessly in this style of league.

I think everyone but depriest is accurate, but then again, I could see Depriest getting drafted late.

My opinion:
Cooper - 3-8 (if not picked by 7, someone will trade into 8 spot to get him)
Collins - 15-27
Yeldon - late 2nd, early 3rd
White - late 4th - 6th
Sims - late 5th - early 7th
Dickson - 5th - 7th
Depriest - 5th - 7th
Jones - 6th - UDFA
Fowler - 6th - UDFA
Kouadjio - toughest one. there are rumblings that he failed some teams' physicals. if true, he could go late 4th - UDFA. If false, he could go early 3rd - late 4th

I think Dickson might go a bit higher than that

I have not seen White mentioned much.

What I have seen for their highest round:

1st Cooper and Collins
2nd Yeldon
3rd Arie
4th Dickson
5th Fowler and Shepherd
7th Sims and DePriest
