Yeah, I think there is some debate about the top WR, but all the sane people would be okay with Kalil, Claiborne, or their top WR.

There might be some debate between us rubes, but I don't think there's been much by way of scouts or analysts.
That being said, Floyd is going to be an elite WR and a steal for whoever gets him.

That is probably true.
I would say that it is probably more of a debate with the experts if Blackmon is worth the third pick than if Blackmon has been passed by Floyd (or if they have him having been passed by Floyd they are both in the 6-7 range).

Well I am officially back on the Mo bandwagon. A lot of great points from both sides in here, but in the end, I believe 100% that it's Mo.
Their are far more talented and greater WRs in our division, then there are DEs. Chris Cook is a big plus, but let's say he goes down for a game or two. We're back to that same secondary that tied for worst all time. We can stand to use a significant upgrade back there.

Cowboys defensive back Morris Claiborne recently said that he hopes to be ready for a June 12 minicamp after recently having pins removed from his left wrist. Claiborne’s hopes may not become reality.
Via NFL.com, former Cowboys scout Bryan Broaddus, who now writes for the team’s official website, writes on Twitter that Claiborne still will need more time: “Talk of Mo Claiborne being ready to go in June. Not the case. Should be able to start running next week. Still looking at training camp.”
It’s unclear whether Broaddus is expressing an opinion of his own or passing along an official statement from the organization. Either way, the talk of Claiborne being ready for the June minicamp comes in part from Claiborne. It’ll be interesting to see when/if he agrees that he won’t be ready for the June 12 camp.

he pretty much weaseled out of it, saying the bet was about who'd they draft at #3.
Kalil was drafted at #4.

Hey punk, I didn't weasel out of anything. And we both know if my sig was moving like Swaps, I'd have about 3434 PMs telling me to change it.
The bet was who is picked at 3, we both agreed that a trade nullified the agreement.

I checked the rules and it says nothing about glowing sigs.

your sig doesn't really "glow," but it does move, so is "animated" by webby's definition.
busted by a weasel, now how does that feel?

I think given that the trade resulted in the Vikings picking from the same 3 everyone was betting on that the sig bet should stand unaltered. The Vikings picked Kalil and got extra picks. It was clearly Kalil all along and that was the bet.
