    Mike Mayock is a guy who gets a lot of respect when it comes to the draft. He does his homework and is generally right more than most. Here is his most recent ratings along with a video (Which I hope displays).

    Three WRs tied at #5. Grow a pair and pick one, Mike!

    Edit: Daniel McCullers as the fifth best DT. Lulz.

    Maybe it is a weak DT class

    I've never liked the way "experts" do their position rankings. I mean, Marcus Smith is not a 4-3 OLB in any way, so should he really be ranked that highly?

    I think I am off the Hyde bandwagon.....

    Overall, this is one of the better lists I have seen.

    I thought he hated Barr?

    I usually really respect Mayock's opinion. Definitely moreso than anyone else.

    Surprised he loves Manziel so much, who I do not like.

    Hyde is about as close as youll find to Beast Mode. This draft does offer a few complete RBs tho. So if Hyde isnt a Titan we have other options, but I like Hyde a lot. Guy runs angry and always falls forward.

    I just read a few things about his work ethic and problems with weight. I try to steer clear of those guys.

    I read that too, and normally steer clear of those types. But when you watch this kid fight for yards you ignore jibber jabber like that. This guy will break you in half. If there was still such a thing as a 1st round RB, hes it.

    Him in the 2nd round could be the steal of the draft. 2 years ago Hyde would be a top 10 pick.

    maybe

    I am still not sold on a second round running back when you have so many other positions with good players in the second. Still seems pretty early and Greene is much better than people are giving him credit for.
