Brooks to the Panthers 🤦🏽‍♂️ Good job, Jerry

Tweet from Ollie Connolly: Mitchell was the one evaluation that makes you want to throw your laptop in the sea. Just totally uninterested when not the primary target. Strolled through routes. Gave up on takeoff assignments. Just wrecked some of his teams concepts

@Gerry Hamilton @Bobby Burton 

Is that last sentence true?

Not sure he slid, Buff. always was the team that wanted him.  The move by Buff to move down one spot to the 2nd round was a dick move IMO. Unless they talked with his agent and will still pay him 1st round money, just sucks on their part. 

Well that ain't happening, salaries are slotted by draft pick per agreement with the NFLPA.  He'll take what's offered, knowing that if he outplays his contract (spot in the draft) he can make big $$ on the second contract in 3-4 years.

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown from the 2021 draft is a good comparison, dropped to round 4, # 112, I think 17th WR picked (something like that).  Played well, just signed a second contract "worth more than $120 million in new money and contains $77 million in total guarantees"

Best advice to AD - don't feel sorry for yourself, just go out there and play your heart out and good things can come your way.

He passed on us and went with the first big time team that was on him before he blew up.

Wrong! Herman's Jay Valai never pulled the trigger.  He was a Texas lean as JQJ was recruiting him.

I never understood why Texas did not press at the time.  Piss poor evaluation.

Not gonna turn this into a pissing match, but Rakestraw was undervalued until the period after the early signing period and people really liked his senior tape. Texas offered after that and came after him hard. He took OVs here, Bama, Missouri. He ended up being one of the many DBs we whiffed on that cycle, losing guys like Ethan Pouncey, Josh Eaton, Kelee Ringo, etc. *shudders*

Jay Valai wasn't even hired by Texas until after Rakestraw signed with Missouri.

Please, no more Herman talk.
