****. Denver got Nix and Franklin. The Chargers got Alt, McConkey, and Brenden Rice. And the Raiders? Well, it appears that AP wants to put his own stamp on the team by taking the star TE, because he needs to prove that his star TE is better than the star TE the last guy drafted last year.
That is competent drafting by the Chargers and Broncos, and I don't like it. Thank goodness the Chargers team doctors will probably maim most of the players at some point next season. And the Broncos are still under the weight of that trade and contract for a failed Subway spokesperson.

There were some rumors out there that Franklin bombed interviews and left GM's feeling like he didn't even like playing football he just does it because he's good at it.
AD Mitchells health was an issue but on top of that he point blank told GMs he didn't go 100% everyplay as a strategy to setup CBs, apparenly telling GM's you don't go 100 every play was not a smart move.
