Beerz and I preplanned it for you... to get you ready for all the trading on draft day
Ha! True. I'm sure it will be hectic.

I would be pissed with those two picks quite honestly. Floyd screams Berk Mingo/Dion Jordan to me. Other than the low-risk Riddick pick Keim prefer big OLB's. Hoping Floyd is off the board by then.

For some reason I like Floyds teammate Jordan Jenkins in the pro game better than him.
Plus, he's more in the Cardinals/Steelers mode of LB's by being more stout and thicker.

To me, Floyd sounds a lot like Chandler Jones when he was coming into the NFL.

I would rank Floyd ahead of Spence as I believe Floyd to be the better athlete outside and athleticism counts on the edge. Also, any time I can avoid a player with substance abuse issues who is also not supremely athletic, I will. Spence would have been ideal with our second round pick, but I am happier that we used it to get Chandler Jones.
My end position on Floyd is that I believe he has the potential to be a player similar to Anthony Barr. A very versatile and athletic defensive player who will need to grow into a defense. Barr adjusted quickly, and probably quicker than Floyd will, but that is why he was a high pick. The team who drafts Floyd will need to find an initial job for him which plays to his strengths, and then continue to add roles for him as his skills in other areas grow.

I really like Jordan Jenkins but he may just be a Markus Golden clone. In round 3, that is cool with me, but in round 1, I swim away. Floyd just offers things that very few players in the draft offer, but it is his lack of refinement which may make him available at #29.

Was it Danial Jerrimiah that had Floyd going to the Bears? Compared him
to Aldon Smith which was confusing since Smith is 30 to 40 pounds bigger
than Floyd.
ESPN mock draft last night Kiper had us picking Lynch QB
He actually looks pretty darn good. Seems to be a good pass blocker and gets to the second level on the run game.

Remember how BASK do their board. They don't care where other people have players valued. John Brown was a perfect example. People said "What are they doing? They could have picked him in the 4th round." They didn't care. They thought very highly of JB, so he was high on their board. When he was available in round 3, they grabbed him where they had him slotted.
Since their board rankings can also factor in need, I bet there are one or two centers they think highly of that are in perfect position to grab at #92, if still there. It also wouldn't surprise me if they had Kelly high enough on their board to grab at #29 if he is there. It's hard not to think that Seattle wouldn't grab him at #26 though. I can't figure them out. I heard their total OL salaries are only $8 mil. That's one guy for the Cardinals! I wonder if they're going to continue with their convert-a-failed-DL program? If Kelly is available at #26, they're either running to the podium to turn in the pick - or it's a big nothing to them, not even on their radar.
