NFL Draft discussion thread

[Snoogans]

We have alot of football fans on here, but most dont follow college much. So i made this to discuss the draft and also for the few board College football fans to tell the non college fans how well or poorly their team drafted.

With my Giants picking 32nd (awesome), ill have alot of time to think about other shit during the first round so

[keithy_19]

I bet the Raiders pick a punter.

though i see where you are goin, id say its highly unlikely since they have probably the best punter in the NFL

They do.

I bet the Raiders pick JaMarcus Russell.

[ozzie]

I swear, this has nothing to do with my hatred of all things 'bama'.

But... I hope that the Browns surprise the "experts" and take Blackmon over 'rent Richardson.

They have plenty of other picks to pick up a RB.

i hope the reports are true and the stupid jets trade up to 3 to get richardson.

By the way, i was hoping you would show up for this tonight ozzie. If you are here, me and we can get bob or bama woe could probably run down everything that happens pretty knowledgeably

[underdog]

They do.

Lucky for Raiders fans, they don't have any good picks.

[weekapaugjz]

The bills have needs at OT, LB, and WR. It will be interesting to see where they go. I think tackle is most pressing concern but if kalil and reiff are off the board, it seems like a bit of a reach to go for the third best tackle with the 10th pick. Michael Floyd could be solid opposite stevie johnson with david nelson in the slot.

The Jets can have him.

I don't dislike his skills, just think the Browns have more pressing needs everywhere else on offense, and I don't like taking ANY RB that early. The year that Caddy and Ronnie both went in the top-5 picks, I thought it was a mistake too.

I hate to admit it, but the other bammers projected to go in the first round are ALL solid. Where and when they go is just a matter of need.

Barron, Kirkpatrick, Upshaw, Hightower... are ALL the best at their position, IMO. And 'rent is the best RB on the board... I just think the Browns should take Blackmon.

And, yes, I like Hightower ahead of Kuechly, or however it's spelled, from BC, if you're looking for an ILB.

Dre might have the most competition at CB with Claiborne from LSU and Gilmore from USCe... but whomever ends up with Dre is going to be happy.

[cougarjake13]

3 hrs plus til the start but it'll prob be 11 before the geeee men select

he looked great in college. didn't translate. meh.

and do they even have any picks left?

Did he really look great or was it just bc they won the title one year with him as qb?

JaMarcus is still hanging around town here hoping to make a comeback if the Raiders want to try it again.

The sumbitch could sling a football a country mile, which Al always loved in his QB's.

I guess they hoped that they could teach him the rest... IF he was willing to learn, and he just wasn't (willing or able?... depends on who you ask).

Didn't quite work out for them.

I'm not a huge college fan and the only game I saw was the sugar bowl. I remember being highly impressed with him there. And before then, weren't they talking about the raiders taking Brady Quinn before it switched to Jamarcus? He fucking sucked too.

[epo]

I can't wait for the Packers to trade down.

[Snoogans]

3 hrs plus til the start but it'll prob be 11 before the geeee men select

if they even do ,they are talkin about maybe trading back into the early 2nd round to try to grab an extra third and go after Sanu


for once that better be true. For once lets keep a guy at home

i think he had plenty of ability, just not the attitude. He let himself go and got fat on purple drank. Now, they shoulda known from interviews he was an asshole but he definately could play

my favorite part is the buccs fan jumping and laughing int he jets fans faces for taking Lageman. Goddamn what a video. Maybe we can edit Gholston and Sanchez into tghe end of it

[Snacks]

Did he really look great or was it just bc they won the title one year with him as qb?

this exactly. most thought he was a 1 year wonder but because oak had the #1 pick he moved all the way up to 1. a lot of those so called analyst hated the pick but thought maybe it worked out.

as for trent richardson he is a stud and baring any injuries i think he could turn in to the best rb in the league within 2-3 years. if tb, clev etc dont get him the 2nd best rb imo in the draft is lamar miller out of miami, but he and every other rb in this draft are miles behind richardson.

[weekapaugjz]

browns swapped picks with vikings. not sure what else the vikings got.

[weekapaugjz]

so the browns gave up their fourth, fifth, and seventh round pick to move up one spot. were the vikings really even considering taking richardson?

[Snacks]

browns swapped picks with vikings. not sure what else the vikings got.

they must have gotten nervous about someone else moving up and taking richardson because they gave up a lot to move 1 spot. they swapped 1st round picks and clev also give minny, 3 more picks #'s 118, 139 and 211.

[Snacks]

so the browns gave up their fourth, fifth, and seventh round pick to move up one spot. were the vikings really even considering taking richardson?

no they were considering trading their pick to tb who wanted richardson.

jesus. is that still mike holmgren?

[Snoogans]

i wonder if they moved up to 3 to try to trade it to the jets who have 10 picks

[ozzie]

This fucking franchise is going to be the death of me.

that's correct.

[weekapaugjz]

cleveland had like 13 or some shit like that.

[Snoogans]

i hate when teams know who they are pickin and still let the fuckin clock run for 6 min before they hand the pick in

[cougarjake13]

In a shocking move the colts pick Andrew luck

[razorboy]

Andrew Luck makes Peyton look like the coolest guy in the world.

Please let this be the reason... although they already had a shit pile of picks with the 4 compensatory that they were awarded.

[weekapaugjz]

espn probably tells them to hold off so they can get their commercial breaks and shitty promos in.

i was actually just thinkin the same fuckin thing

[cougarjake13]

What the hell wuld minny do with ap very art and trent

[Snoogans]

cleveland traded up to 3 to stop Minn from trading it to someone else for richardson

[cougarjake13]

Ahh good point

[Snoogans]

it said pick is in on cleveland for like 6 minutes now. ANNOUNCE THE FUCKIN THING

[cougarjake13]

It's said pick is in for like 10 minutes
Espn is just dragging it out

Wasn't trying to be but it's true

Hell even thou u won super bowls with Williams and Ripken u culd say u haven't had a qb since theismann

[cougarjake13]

I'm guessing that's Khalil's mom cougar bitch

[CountryBob]

Wasn't trying to be but it's true

Hell even thou u won super bowls with Williams and Ripken u culd say u haven't had a qb since theismann

I agree right there.

We tried with Jason Campbell but he has terrible "thinking quickly" skills. And no offensive line either, different offensive scheme every year etc...


WHo you looking to get for Tampa Bay?

[cougarjake13]

Me no one

I'm a giants fan transplanted to Tampa

[cougarjake13]

It didn't help Campbell that he never had consistent o coordinators

[cougarjake13]

Now I know why everyone booed

Dallas traded up

[ozzie]

Fucking Satellite has been out all night. This sucks.

[cougarjake13]

Sorry ozzie

[Snoogans]

Miami finally got someone to replace Mark Duper at WR

[weekapaugjz]

i can't wait to watch mario williams absolutely destory tannehill.

[cougarjake13]

That's even if he plays this yr

[weekapaugjz]

That's even if he plays this yr

who cares what year it will be, it will happen.

[ozzie]

ESPN is back, but local channels are still out. Looks like I'll be chopping down some of the neighbor's bushes this weekend.

So the Browns really traded up to make sure to get 'rent, huh?

I just don't understand.

What was the analysts opinions of this?

[cougarjake13]

Just that hey didn't want someone else to trade up and get him before them

[weekapaugjz]

huh. wasn't expecting them to take a cornerback.

[sailor]

Looks like he's got one of those falling skies symbiotes on his back.

[ozzie]

Just that hey didn't want someone else to trade up and get him before them

They need SO much help. I just don't get giving away picks for a RB.

[cougarjake13]

Agreed

[ozzie]

I'm really glad to see Cox leaving Miss State. The kid was a nightmare.

Eagles fans... if you wanted a DT, you got a good one.

[Snoogans]

shame on you NAS. You shouldnt be that broke

[Snoogans]

fuckin Carroll. He knows he isnt running a college team right?

[ozzie]

fuckin Carroll. He knows he isnt running a college team right?

Apparently not.

They'll regret passing on Upshaw. Still think he'll be the best NFL DE from this class.

Even the kid from Syracuse, I could understand.

[weekapaugjz]

well, here's hoping quinton coples is the next vernon gholston.

[cougarjake13]

Of course he probably looked good on film playing the level of competition that fucking Boise State played.

I thought he'd be late 1st/early 2nd.

[HBox]

Well this completely sells me on Chandler Jones.

[ozzie]

I thought he'd be late 1st/early 2nd.

Makes me wonder if Upshaw had a low wonderlic score or something.

I can't figure any other reason the Bears would have taken this kid over him.

[ozzie]

Patriots just got a LOT better on D with these two picks.

[CountryBob]

I'm so sick of Maylock and his "see his hips turn" saying.

[epo]

Makes me wonder if Upshaw had a low wonderlic score or something.

I can't figure any other reason the Bears would have taken this kid over him.

I read a bunch of reports early in the week that scouts thought Upshaw was a classic bust.

Of course scouts thought Aaron Rodgers wasn't athletic enough...

[underdog]

The only exciting thing from the 1st round that I learned is that Roger Goddell is pretty good at slapping hands.

[CountryBob]

You giants fans are going to enjoy David Wilson from va tech - hell of an athlete

[razorboy]

Makes me wonder if Upshaw had a low wonderlic score or something.

I can't figure any other reason the Bears would have taken this kid over him.

He obviously doesn't have the the athleticism or coverage ability to play outside in a 4-3, and his height and T Rex arms worry me projecting him as a 4-3 end. He's probably a 3-4 rush backer but again he's slowish coming off the edge. I think he can be a quality player, but he has enough question marks in a draft with a ton of edge rushers to push him down to a likely high second.

[hanso]

i can't wait to watch mario williams absolutely destory tannehill.

:laugh::lol::laugh::lol:

Gilmore?

[spoon]

aj smith did something right!?

wtf?!

:blink:


he's clearly different this year with free agency and with the draft...someone is fearing for his job

[Snacks]

The draft had a lot of moves and pretty good picks.

I think Clev had a great 1st round. They got a rb who could be the best rb in the league and quickly. He has speed, strength, great hands and vision. I love this kid and hope he does well. I love Weeden for the Clev. He is a great QB who is ready now and will compete to be the opening game starter and I think he will be. Yes it might have been a reach taking him at 22 in the 1st round but thats only because hes 28. If he was 22 he would have been 1st round talent. Now they need to get a wr and ths team could be something to watch this coming year or next!

The steal of the draft was by far SD. They got what could be the best all around defensive player who was top 5 talent and fell to 18. Ingram can play DE, even some DT, inside and Outside LB, special teams and has speed (game speed, hes faster the his 40 would suggest) and great athleticism. Depending on where they play him he may to get his eight up but thats only if he goes to de regularly. I see him being a yearly all pro/ pro bowler (if by name only since there will be no more pro bowl).

Going into the draft I liked Tannehill but wasnt sold completley. I really wanted Blackman or Richardson (no way we would have got him). But once Blackman was taken I knew and liked the idea of taken Tannehill. I think with the rookie pay scale being as it is now you can take a QB early and not get screwed if it doesnt work out. I do think it will work out and lots of positive articles have been writtien about him and how he could be great. I have also heard some of the bad things but the main bad shit is that he only had 19 college starts. We will see but I will say overall Im happy.

The worst pick in the draft has to be Sea at 15. The guy was projected to be as late as 1 3rd round guy but some say he had 1st round talent. We will see but projected 3rd round means you could have waited.

Not because I hate the Jets but their pick is terrible. The guy has talent but has no passion. Every discussion about this guy is how he takes off plays, doesn't show up, stays with blocks not passionate about football etc. That has bust written all over it. He does have a great size and speed for DE and he looks like a peppers or tuck type of player but doesn't play as hard as either.

Team that fucked themselves most - STL rams. They wanted Kahlil, Blackman, Floyd, Claiborne and even Richardson was being discussed. After all their trading thinking 1 of them would be available they got screwed out of every single one. The tackle they got is a project but we will see. They missed on lots of top talent to acquire more picks. I think they hurt themselves by making the 2nd trade down which cost them at the very least Floyd.

Cant wait til tomorrow, lots of great players left!

This has been an Bama draft so far and Im surprised Upshaw wasn't drafted. They had 4 1st round picks I believe, should have had 5! Role Tide!!!

[A.J.]

Wasn't trying to be but it's true

Hell even thou u won super bowls with Williams and Ripken u culd say u haven't had a qb since theismann

And the O's won a World Series with Cal Rypien, Jr.

I've calmed down a BIT from last night, but still feel sick.

I'll never understand or agree with the decision to give away picks to move up.

I can't believe there was a serious threat of the Vikings taking him. And if the Bucs or Jets had made a deal and taken him... so what? The Browns had so many other picks, and so many needs. Why not take your chances, and if he's gone, move on to Blackmon or another need?

Weeden to Blackmon would have been fun to watch, and they could pick up a servicable running back with any of their many other picks.

They didn't want Clairborne, they chose to move the pick after JAX moved up to grab Blacmman. As horrible as they are, they actually have a decent secondary. I agree they could have used Floyd but they have a boat load of needs so the more picks the better for them. Who knows maybe they didn't like Floyd.

For the first time, I think ever, I didn't feel like a dumbass for mousing over one of HBox's posts. This one was actually a link!

Pretty shitty trick to pull on a kid on draft night.

I think someone's going to get a STEAL when they pick him. I'll be rooting for this kid no matter where he goes.

Weeden to Blackmon would have been fun to watch, and they could pick up a servicable running back with any of their many other picks.

Minny wasnt taking him but TB was moving up or at least a lot of people thought they would to get him. They really wanted him and give them credit for going for it instead of doing what they always do. Clev had 13 picks so to them it was worth getting rid of 3 later rounds picks to gurantee they got the guy they wanted. Same goes with Weeden. They were expected to take him at 37 but didnt think he would still be there.

I love what Clev did I day one, Prisco at CBS seems to hate it. He gave them a C for the RB because as he stated something like RBs dont matter or win you SBs anymore and an F for Weeden. Most other stuff I heard think they did great and that Weeden would be top 15 if not for his age and yes he is 28 but has an incredible arm, accuracy and NFL QB size and strength. I think they did well but now need to do more the rest of this draft. They need another wr maybe a TE, OL and they will really have changed that offense to something better.

I agree they could have used Floyd but they have a boat load of needs so the more picks the better for them. Who knows maybe they didn't like Floyd.

They have no weapons on offense for their QB they needed something there. Jackson is getting older but is still good but they cant let him do everything. To me Blackman or Foyd or even Kendall Wright should have been their pick! But if they didnt like Floyd or Wright then they got to draft who they like but thats the fun about the draft we get to love or argue picks!

That is fucked up to do to someone. I feel bad but once he does get drafted Im sure he will be able to put that behind him. He is ranked lower at 9 overall for wrs. I thought he would be top 4 or 5 in the draft at the position?

[Snacks]

Indy has the 2nd pick of the 2nd round if you were them wouldn't you draft the TE from Stanford who is the top ranked TE and Lucks go to guy and former teammate? I think Indy should take him since they need some offensive weapons. Whats better to help your young QB then a TE hes familiar with and comfortable with? Lucks OT is also still available and highly ranked, they could go that route as well or maybe get both with a trade?

In a way I hope they take neither and Miami has a shot at 1 of them or would love to see Upshaw fall even further and Miami grab him but I doubt that will happen!

In a way I hope they take neither and Miami has a shot at 1 of them or would love to see Upshaw fall even further and Miami grab him but I doubt that will happen!


Just saw a mock board on NFL channel it has that for IND pick. And has T Jeff Allen from ILL for Mia.

Which player going to Indy the TE or the OT?

I hope someone better falls to Miami, we need some weapons of offense and the line isn't that bad. Yes they could use a RT but we have 1 serviceable wr/te and thats Bess who isn't a #1 he a slot guy.

Just read this, what he says is true but...

Morris Claiborne - DB - Cowboys
No. 6 pick CB Morris Claiborne says he completed only 15-to-18 of the 50 questions on the Wonderlic test at the Combine, leading to his score of four.
"I came to the Combine for football," Claiborne said. "I looked at the test, and wasn’t any questions about football. I didn’t see no point in the test. I’m not in school anymore. I didn’t complete it." Claiborne's score made waves before it was revealed he suffers from a learning disability. The whole episode appears to have had little, if any, effect on his draft stock.

TE from Stanford

I would like Mia to get lineman/ pass rusher next. They have two 3rd round picks, there was at least 5 good WR think 3 are gone now.

Oh yeah just remembered the TE's name Green hope he is around also.

But I like the wr/te more than you (think west coast offense) Last years picks clay and gates where the fastest overall for their positions which should fit it well. West coast runs as a unit not so much by numbers or standout players.

Yet I kept hearing about fans/media wanting to get playmakers.

Seriously though, if the test means so little to you that you completely blow it off don't get your feelings hurt when people mock you out for doing so bad on it.

And, honestly, I think blowing off the test like that would be a bigger negative than doing badly on it. To me, anyway.

They should be going pass rusher next.

Sounded interesting but seems like the 2 guys they might have wanted are still there. Maybe they trade their 2 and a 3 for someones earlier 2 and get Upshaw or maybe they stay where they are and try to land Curry at 12 in the 2nd?

Orlando Salgueiro sports talk radio said Brown is a good one also, and with 3 to pick from they most likely will have a pass rusher from the 2nd round pick if that's the way they go.

He was also saying with no one else but Cam. Wake he would get double teamed all the time, so this sounds good to me. Hope it works out.

Somebody played a hilarious but harsh prank on Mohamed Sanu last night. (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/04/27/mohamed-sanu-got-an-unpleasant-phone-call-during-the-first-round/)

Of all the players to do it to why him ?

probably the only one nice enough to have his number listed somewhere.


Btw, Giants taking this kid from LSU means Sanu is probably out

yeah Im hoping Miami take Sanu now since Randle went to NYG.

Sea drafted Russell Wilson could be a good pick. He is short but has incredible talent. Obviously Sea isn't sold on Flynn or Jackson.

[hanso]

Thought Miami had back to back picks, something happen?
nvm see trades where made.


Like the picks they made BTW first time in long time QB 1st and someone picked from the U.

[CountryBob]

I think that Theisman should go inthe next round :drunk:

the DE was a great pick. He fell because he was suspended the 1st 6 games. They said he would have been a 2nd round pick easily. They also drafted a really good TE who has the size of a TE but the speed and talents of a WR.

I cant believe RB Miller still hasnt gone from Miami or OT Massie from Ole Miss.

Watching Russell Wilson on ESPN discuss his height and football over baseball was a good interview. That kid has talent and seems like a good guy. His GF on the other hand is one freaky looking girl. She was making these weird facial expressions and was all teeth!

a RB from Temple goes before Miller from Miami - WTF?

I like Marshall Faulk

I dont get it some said he could go 1st round and 2nd round if he fell. Now its looking like the 4th round or later. Massie OT is still there too he was projected between 22 and 40 the latest.

[CountryBob]

so the giants draft another Va tech Hokie - J Hosely is a stud if ya can keep him off the grass!

I just hope that we're now done w/ the Gruden QB Camp bullshit.

That was some awful television.

I don't know his complete resume but know he only won the one SB with a QB that wasn't exactly one that he could boast that he mentored.

[cougarjake13]

Done for now but as long as he's not coaching were stuck with it every year leading up til draft

[cougarjake13]

And he's rap is that he hates young qbs so it's comical that he does that gruden camp

[hanso]

I watched some of those to get an idea of what the QB is like that might be coming via draft. It was alright, that science show was cool also it showed Weeden passing breaking clay plates.

[epo]

Basically all defense. Thank you Ted Thompson.
