Hitdog was pretty spot on except he heard Hargreaves (older info) and didn't hear anything about Apple. But he e-mailed long before beat writers picked up stuff on Floyd and Conklin.
Limerick was off. Slade rapidly losing any credibility.
of lists of players the giants were "high on". Think maybe they were hearing cb and just intuiting him instead of apple based on the perception that there was a clear seperation from them?
Didn't Limerick say he would donate $500 to BBI if

So, he was "spot on", but didn't have any idea we would draft who we did?

hitdog had the Apple pick in the first round thread, suggesting it was going to happen if Floyd was gone, before anyone else did.

He nailed EVERYTHING in free agency... perfect 1.000 batting average. He also knew Floyd and Conklin were top considerations well before beat writers.

It is also possible that Apple was the target and they wanted to keep that secret and one of Floyd/Conklin was pure smoke and was really the fallback if everyone else was taken. Hargreaves could have been the test balloon to see what the market was like for DB

So you mean our front office shouldn't be fired for being "the only team who telegraphs their draft?" :)
My color has been off. Other then not having Apple over hardgreaves and then I had Apple anyway in the thread once the Bears traded - while every beat writer was whining like a biatch that the Giants are fkd.... But they weren't because they just adjusted post tunsil fall out which took Conklin out... And moved on.
Don't hate on the guys who try to subtly give color- you never see me or jonc post our own thread- the attempt is to quietly give color while not causing a stir.

Hitdog, just want you to know I appreciate you contributions greatly, thanks for the info. I understand the fluid nature of the information, things change quick.

Are you ok with the Apple pick?
BB56, I don't know enough about college footfall to be unhappy about Apple. And I like the idea of adding talent as the CB position in a league where passing and stopping the other team from passing rules the day.

Hitdog, you have more than proven yourself. Your contributions are appreciated.

I think most of BBI, or at least the quiet masses here, greatly appreciate all the information all of you guys share.

On the side, never thought Slade was an asshat. Just someone who nailed a prediction once.
Lets get after the OT, LB tomorrow
I am glad a team passed us for Floyd, but am neutral on Conklin. I like Eli Apple, so it is what it is

I second this

By the way, we have a 20 year old kid with a ton of upside to root for, its actually pretty exciting.

It is fun and part of what makes BBI
Of course, the OP doesn't grasp the concept either way.

Haha, have to lighten the mood here and there. I don't know any more than the next guy, but man, you'd swear we drafted CC Brown yesterday.
