So, I'd love to get some thoughts on this. I like these two guys chances better than the other developmental QB types later though they both have their warts. I'm curious to see what people think about where they go.
Lynch at 15 seems a bit high to me but it was just reported that the Bills are meeting with him and they're at 19. Could be posturing over Tyrod's contract but I think it's a smart play by the Bills (they wouldn't have to worry about losing Tyrod after this year as much and certainly wouldn't have to worry about overpaying him as much).
I was of the thinking that we could trade down a bit and have a shot at Lynch but when you see the Bills and Jets sitting there at 19 and 20 (Fitzpatrick isn't signed and even if he does get signed, he's not a long term answer), I don't think you can afford to drop more than a slot or two if you like Lynch.
As to Cook. I think his ceiling is Denver at 31 in the 1st. I can't see him worth being taken higher and while I don't think he's worth a first round pick, the last pick in the 1st round is a bit more of a wildcard. I don't really buy someone expending a pick to trade back into the 1st for Cook, I just don't think he's good enough for that. As far as the top of the 2nd. Maybe the Cowboys at 34 or someone trading up in front of us for him, otherwise, I think he drops to us at 43.
Any thoughts?
