His draft buzz on Aiyuk...

Wasn't Matt Miller the guy who reported Lynch and Shanny weren't getting along last off-season?

Yeah I think Miller has taken a beating recently so I don't know how much I'd trust his takes these days.

It seems like maybe his sources hit the road.

Not everyone is right all the time. He just reports stuff he's told.

He also reported SF was in love with foster.

He was very butt hurt by Lynch leap frogging lots of people and getting a GM gig. But I think that's pretty understandable

I agree there, I also think the people that he speaks to were butthurt about it as well.

I like Miller. He's a faithful so no matter how upset he was about the situation he still wanted the niners to succeed. Unlike the Cohns who want failure just so they can say "told you so"

Miller is probably one of the best analysts that aren't scouts right now IMO. He has his misses but is quite honest and has made some good call on players.

DJ is actually quite good too. I think Miller and DJ are better at drawing opinions on their own. Guys like Kiper and McShay rely way more on hearing things. though they do have a lot of good insider hookups.

For me it's Brugler, then Miller/DJ as the more accessible guys. I like Pauline's inside info too. His personal opinions are a bit off for me. Zierlein is decent too

Hearing reports of Tua failing physical with teams...

I've heard some teams having tougher time evaluating injury/rehab because it was a 'trauma surgery' and not a routine sports procedure

Interesting to follow...
