“@Gil_Brandt: Going to drop Jarvis Jones out of first round. Not sure he's a first-round talent. #NFLDraft.”

Remember when Manti didn't deserve the Heisman because Jarvis Jones and Damontre Moore were better defenders? There stock is dropping a hell of a lot more than Manti's has recently.

Not questioning his analysis, but who is Gil Brandt?

STLDomer · Apr 2, 2013

Former VP of player personnel for the Dallas Cowboys (1960-'89) and current NFL senior analyst.

He's called the godfather of the nfl draft by some people

tadman95 · Apr 2, 2013

Brandt was really good at finding obscure players that contributed and some became all-pros.

Wait really? Is this a real question.

He invented the NFL combine.

Bogtrotter07 · Apr 2, 2013

Just as long as he doesn't question his analysis.

Obviously Rick Mirer is a former ND football. So is Deke Cooper. He was actually one of my favorite players growing up.

For you youngsters.

My ability to enjoy that moment has been ruined by the constant presence of the Liar.

ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr.'s latest mock draft has #NotreDame TE Tyler Eifert to Pittsburgh at 17 and LB Manti Te'o to Chicago at 20th.

Kiper moved up both Irish players on his big board -- Eifert from 15 to 12, Te'o from 17 to 20. Said most likely sports for Te'o are Bears at 20, Giants at 19 or Vikings at 23 or 25. Said Vikings may trade up to grab Te'o if they think Giants or Chicago is interested.

Crazy. Mocks had Teo mid 2nd round a few days ago, but now he's trending back upward. Hope him and Eifert find homes in the first, so long as it isn't in GB or MIN.

Vikings love them some Irish

Irish Houstonian · Apr 4, 2013

If the Bears don't take Te'o the GM should be fired. Talent, scheme, need, fan base -- rarely does this align so well for a team choosing 20th.

GoldenIsThyFame · Apr 5, 2013

Cool stat in this months ND magazine: Of the 47 Super Bowls, only 5 have not had a former Irish player on at least one of the teams. Currently on a streak of 14 straight.

The ravens had a ND player on their roster this year?

I knew about ZIbby but he played with the Colts last season!

Bogtrotter07 · Apr 5, 2013

Flemming and Williams for the 49ers.

I need to sign you up for my weekend seminar, "If you are Canadian, how to let the big dick out of you," Helps with all of the non telemarketer situations.

Just think how good you will feel letting out your giant "wrath" on any occasion.

“@Gil_Brandt: Chance Warmack's 15YO brother Dallas attended UGA's Spring Game today w/ mom. People say he’s better HS player than his brother was.”

“@Gil_Brandt: Btw, will stand by what I said two months ago: Still think Chance Warmack is best player in this draft.”

Damn

Alot of other offensive lineman were better coming out of high school. Warmack was only a three star, so if I hear "Lil Warmack is the second coming of Jesus" or anything like that, I'll lose my freakin' mind..

Just because he was a 3 star doesn't mean he wasn't one of the best lineman in the country when he was in highschool, he had an Alabama offer, that puts him in an elite group of lineman
