Part of my thinking there is that we may have Robert Woods rated every bit as high as the next 4-5 WR's.
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.

Nobody is sliding yet. The order of the top 20 is just changed, with a higher value placed on offensive linemen and edge rushers.

I thought there was a lot of noise earlier about Raiders targeting Hayden? Was it just smoke?

Good point. Although it seemed Floyd and Lotulelei were possible top five guys. You don't see those drops often.

Crap. Hayden off the board. But still all the DT's are there.
