About $18.5mm this year
If he's peak Diggs, that's a bargain. If he's last year's Diggs, it's probably a slight over-pay. He'll probably be somewhere in the middle, and it'll probably be about right
Went to the Aquarium. Mostly mediocre buffet food, but there was a prime rib station that was quaffable. Kids looked at fish and road a carousel and ferris wheel
Two round mock that shows how some interesting prospects could be available for Houston's second rounders at picks #42 and #59
Also, no T'Vondre Sweat

Some things Caserio seems to have prioritized over his past three drafts
- P5 plus Notre Dame
- Team captains, especially this past draft (perhaps Demeco influenced?)
- GPS game tracked speed over testing speed
- Avoiding players with injury histories
- Younger
- Participated in senior/shrine bowl
There's several draft twitter accounts talking about Jermaine Burton today. I like him in the 3rd or 4th round for Houston if they don't draft a WR earlier and if he's still on the board
Kind of Amon-Ra St. Brown type where he was a very highly regarded recruit who was pretty productive, but seems to be a bit down the board in the draft presumably due to mediocre height/weight while not blowing out testing, but being a very skilled inside/outside WR
The scheme (Fangio style heavy cover 4/6) helps lesser athletes at safety who know what they're doing due to time in the system, but optimally you prefer 5* freaks who know what they're doing
The defense (#4 in DVOA) and surrounding cast (Williams, Deebo, Aiyuk, CMC, Kittle) on offense will be less good if you pay Purdy. I think it's a legitimate discussion whether or not to pay him.
Top 30 visits for Houston so far... these visits don't necessarily mean this player is a priority, sometimes they're just to fill in holes in the evaluation that the team might have missed, but frequently players drafted visited the team (it also varies from team to team). Also, teams will purposefully not have some players visit to keep them off the radar
