PLUS THREE
Things I would've known beforehand if I paid any mind to NFL draft:
• UCLA LBer Myles Jack has a bad knee. Knowing that, I wouldn't have suggested Vikes make a big move upward to get him.
• Ole Miss WR Laquon Treadwell is slow with questionable practice habits. Knowing that, I could've acted smart and ripped the pick.
• Clemson CB Mackensie Alexander is short with no interceptions in two years. Knowing that … same as with Treadwell.
