..Pool of players this year much bigger than ever
..Extra year of eligibility has put more players in the pool
..We have 3-years of tape on some of these players
..Never seen so many 24-year old playres in the draft
..Not going to force things to take an offensive tackle-see who falls to us

..We as scouts are not infallible
..As many picks as we get right-we also get wrong
..Probably half the first round picks won’t sign 2nd contract with same team
