I'm not a member of any of the Gator clubs but I do occasionally go to a Palm Beach Gator club event. This year they get the ex-Kentucky coach as speaker. Wonder how that's going over?

This will be my first year back in Jax, so I’m pretty stoked about being there when Muschomp comes to Jax on the 20^th of May. This year will also be my first O&B game since the late 80’s!

Re: [gatortalk] Fwd: [gatornews] ESPN.com: Sharrif Floyd moves up Kiper's Big Board

My apologies, I get it now. I am a little slow sometimes.

Yes, ok. Technically... Maybe... You're correct. But, Mel Kiper is a jerk and I don't like him.
So, I can make off handed remarks about him on Gatortalk and expect my Buds to back me up. Especially since he dissed Tebow so badly a couple of years ago.
Sharrif Floyd is probably the first Gator player he has ever said anything good about.

But, if I studied drafts for a couple of decades an interviewed dozens of NFL coaches over the same time period, I would acquire a pretty good knowledge of predicting how college achievements, height/weight/speed, NFL combine performance and general "buzz" translate to draft status.

Combine that with different teams' positions of need and statement from management as to what they are looking for in the draft, and I could forecast a draft pretty accurately.

Does the ability to forecast the draft translate to who will and who won't succeed in the pros? No, of course not. for example, I suspect that Sturgis will be a great long term pro, and should be a higher draft pick than he will be. Still, I suspect that he will be taken in one of the last rounds, because that is the way that things work.

So, for what Kiper does - predict the draft and evaluate whether a pick was a good pick vis a vis whether the same or an equivalent player could have been taken later - I think is is qualified and does a pretty good job.

But, if I studied drafts for a couple of decades an interviewed dozens of NFL coaches over the same time period, I would acquire a pretty good knowledge of predicting how college achievements, height/weight/speed, NFL combine performance and general "buzz" translate to draft status.

Combine that with different teams' positions of need and statement from management as to what they are looking for in the draft, and I could forecast a draft pretty accurately.

Does the ability to forecast the draft translate to who will and who won't succeed in the pros? No, of course not. for example, I suspect that Sturgis will be a great long term pro, and should be a higher draft pick than he will be. Still, I suspect that he will be taken in one of the last rounds, because that is the way that things work.

So, for what Kiper does - predict the draft and evaluate whether a pick was a good pick vis a vis whether the same or an equivalent player could have been taken later - I think is is qualified and does a pretty good job.

Just how many players has Mel personally drafted?

I've never made beer, but I can tell a good one from a bad one.

Speaking of which, has anyone tried Widmer Bros. Nelson Imperial IPA? Wow.
