NFL 2012 Off-Season Thread

[DaveWadding]

<font color=goldenrod>Fitzgerald was on the cover with Polamalu and it didn't effect him at all. WR's might be immune.</font>

The Madden curse does not affect Larry Fitzjesus. That's why.

[Nark Order]

Surely Droford meant because he is black.

FUCKING RACISM.

[Droford]

not hardly, but whatever

[Reavant]

The only reason I could see RG3 being a bust is because hes going to the career cemetery known as the redskins. Put him on almost any other team and theres no question he would be great.

[Skippord]

I think Andrew Luck is going to be a bust because the Colts have drafted 2 successful quarterbacks with their first picks in the draft and two shitty quarterbacks with first picks and seeing as how their last one was good Luck will certainly be bad

my dumb theory is better than yours Droford

[Skippord]

although Droford is right and there is NO CONCEIVABLE WAY either of them could be great

[Krimzon7]

Rg3 will suffer because everything around him is shit. He won't be a bust but he won't do much

[ClockShot]

Hey guys, just curious. What's your go-to channel for watching the draft tonight? ESPN or NFL Network?

[Next Big Thing]

ESPN because I still haven't figured out what is in Mel Kiper's hair, but I think I've narrowed it down to a combination of Sportin' Wave, Murray's Pomade and Isoplus. This is the year I finally nail it.

[Crimson]

I'd probably go back and forth. Whichever one doesnt spoil the pick before it's in, but I guess they both do that.

Also I didnt know Chandler Jones was Bones' brother. Some sick genes there

[Next Big Thing]

2009- Stafford/Sanchez
2004- Rivers/Manning
2002- Carr/Harrington
1999- Couch/McNabb
1998- Manning/Leaf
1995- McNair/ Collins

Unless I'm reading your table of top 5 selected QB's wrong, your inane notion that RG3 and Luck both can't be good because they're in the same draft seems pretty inconclusive. In terms of numbers, Sanchez's first three seasons are almost identical to Eli's, he's improved every season and by the way, dude played pretty well during those two AFC championship runs in the playoffs. Stafford's team just got there, so I don't see how you can call anyone in that pairing a bust.

Philip Rivers is statistically the better quarterback than Eli, but Eli has more rings. I don't think either of those guys are a bust.

Carr and Harrington were both busts.

I'll give you Couch as a flop, but he went # and stylistically who is RG3 more comparable to, Tim Couch or Donovan McNabb.

I'll give you Leaf as well, but unless RG3 has an addictive personality/mental disorder, I don't see how they compare.

Kerry Collins may not have been as good as McNair statistically, but he put up some nice numbers and did start his career on an expansion team. He actually threw for more yards in his career than McNair and had less talent around him overall. He also took the Giants to the Super Bowl. Let's not forget he did that as a functional alcoholic. Again, I ask, who is RG3 stylistically comparable to, McNair or Collins?

[Krimzon7]

ESPN because I still haven't figured out what is in Mel Kiper's hair, but I think I've narrowed it down to a combination of Sportin' Wave, Murray's Pomade and Isoplus. This is the year I finally nail it.

Jizz and Cooking lard.

[Next Big Thing]

I haven't ruled out Crisco yet.

[Next Big Thing]

By the way, who's better/ least annoying, Kiper or McShay? Mel seems passionate, while McShay comes off like an ass.

[Ermaximus]

I wonder if the Colts will make a parade of their first pick even though everyone knows they've already decided to take Luck. I just don't get why they would wait almost the whole 15 minutes to make their pick when they already know, and have announced, who they're taking.

[Hanso Amore]

2009- Stafford/Sanchez
2004- Rivers/Manning

Add Big Ben to 2004. The first 3 QBs taken that year are all pro bowlers for playoff teanms, and 2 of them have 2 rings each.

Who cares if they are 1/2 or 1/4

The point should be made about it being the first few qbs drafted.

I am back to hating Droford.

[Hanso Amore]

Drofords support argument is less about QBs taken in the same draft, and more about how shotty the rate of 1st round qbs are.

[Innovator]

DRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAFT DAY

[FearedSanctity]

RIP Pro Bowl

[Next Big Thing]

Add Big Ben to 2004. The first 3 QBs taken that year are all pro bowlers for playoff teanms, and 2 of them have 2 rings each.

Who cares if they are 1/2 or 1/4

The point should be made about it being the first few qbs drafted.

I am back to hating Droford.

It's just more low effort thinking on his part. When you actually dig deeper and compare the "busts" to either QB in terms of skill set, personality and the situations they're going into, you see how stupid the thought is.

[Hanso Amore]

That post of mine really upsets me. I remember leading into the 2004 Draft the Bills wanted a QB but were drafted 13th. I wanted Rivers or Big Ben so bad. Rivers stock rose LATE and all of a sudden he went 4th. The Bills knew they had to move up from 13 for ben and didnt. He goes to Pitt and they win 2 bowls. Bills end up trading back into the 1st for Losman. WOW.

They paid more to move up for Losman than it would have cost to move up for Biug Ben. I want to cry when I think of their draft days misses.

Whitner Over Ngata...

Maybin over Orakpo

McKelvin over Clady.

the list goes on and on.

Those were all major picks the NFL community thought was a possibility and the Fans were calling for.

Imagine had they been at all compentent.

Add Clady, Ngata, Big Ben and Orakpo to the bills...My god.

Granted things would have changed and those picks would have changed, but damn, just shows you how bad the Bills Front office was during the Marv Levy/Dick Jauron years. Killed any hope of the Bills ever being a legit contender again.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Oh man Whitner. I still remember that. He was projected as a mid to late 1st rounder. But they couldn't wait.

[Next Big Thing]

I don't blame the Bills for Losman. He came out of Tulane. All we do is send top stars to the NFL. MATT FORTE, Shaun King, patrick ramsey, etc...

[Nark Order]

Feeling bad for Kris P here. :(

This might make him feel better.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OyCpQkqmgTo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Hanso Amore]

Oh man Whitner. I still remember that. He was projected as a mid to late 1st rounder. But they couldn't wait.

Yeah. Michael Huff was the top pick, so I guess the Bills just really needed that safety. Fucking Jauron and the cover 2. He passed on Ngata because he DIDNT FIT. Same with Orakpo

[Crimson]

I guess that goes to the old saying you don't draft for need just grab best available

[CSL]

Giants sign Shaun Rogers

[Droford]

Drofords support argument is less about QBs taken in the same draft, and more about how shotty the rate of 1st round qbs are.

My point still stands about QBs taken 1/2 in the same year though..

I shudder to think what happens if Tannehill goes #3, it'll be like 1999 with Couch/McNabb/A. Smith. Teams panic "OMG the QBs are all gone" and go rush to a QB that under normal circumstances wouldn't be touched before the 3rd round where expectations wouldn't be so high. Tannehill WILL DEFINITELY be a bust if hes drafted top 5. I have less doubt about that then saying that RG3 will be a huge bust. The good news is he's not projected to go top 5, but I could see someone panic at the last minute..

[Nark Order]

Droford told me in secret that he doesn't like RGII because he is black.

[Triple Naitch]

What's Dro have against RGIII's father?

[Crimson]

I have a feeling there's going to be a record number of trades.

[Emperor Smeat]

Don't think the Vikings would take Tannehill considering they drafted Ponder last year and Tannehill doesn't seem that much of an improvement over Ponder. They have a lot more areas to fix to potentially waste a pick on another QB.

Cleveland at #4 is teasing they might take Bama's RB as their first pick and both the Bucs and Rams haven't made any mentions of a possibility of a QB being their first pick.

Vikings teased they are more likely to pick an OT, CB, or WR for their first pick but Tannehill probably won't be a Top 10 pick or at least not a Top 5.

[Crimson]

McShay is horrible. He tip toes with alot of what ifs , jesus.

[Droford]

I would pass on Tannehill and suck bad/trade up for Matt Barkley next year.

[Gonzo]

I guess that goes to the old saying you don't draft for need just grab best available

This is why the Giants > your favorite team. :yes:

Nah but on a more serious note it's the times like these that I'm glad my team is riding high right now. I'd hate to be even discussing potential #1 picks.

[Crimson]

:( Some mocks have Giants taking Fleener..that'd be a nice weapon for Eli. Hope he's gone by then

[FearedSanctity]

Browns trade up to #3

[Emperor Smeat]

Yeup ESPN is saying the Browns panicked thinking Tampa wanted Richardson (Bama RB) even though it probably wouldn't be the case while Minnesota knew the players they wanted would still be available a few picks down and they get to save some cash even though rookie pay scales are a lot lower than 2 years ago.

Tampa wants Blackmon a lot more than Richardson although Minnesota also wants Blackmon but they can deal without having him as long as they get the CB or OT guy they want.

[FearedSanctity]

Vikings swap 1sts and pick up a 4, 5 and 7 to drop back one spot

[FearedSanctity]

lol, drafting a RB in the first round

[Corndad]

And this is why they are the Browns.

[Skippord]

ROACH!!!! :love:

[Nark Order]

Guys, stop saying horrible things about the Cleveland Browns

[ClockShot]

We doing the draft in this thread, or someone gonna make a whole new one?

Oh. I'll probably tune into ESPN. Could be a year McShay and Kiper come to blows/fisticuffs.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Trent Richardson will bust hard.

Also, sucks that the first 3 picks in the draft are already known.</font>

[FearedSanctity]

I mean seriously, this is 2012. Doesn't everyone know you can get a good RB in rounds 3 and later? What are the odds Richardson even makes it through his rookie contract without suffering some sort of injury that will bother him the rest of his career? The shelf life of a RB is too short to spend so much

[Krimzon7]

I love that the fans booed goodell

[FearedSanctity]

First three picks are known, will still take full 30 minutes. Fucking draft

[Krimzon7]

We got commercials to sell pimp

[FearedSanctity]

lol Vikings looking to trade down again, because apparently they want to draft more training camp cuts

[Next Big Thing]

I can't stand Todd McShay. Kiper all day.

[Ermaximus]

Wake me up at pick 7.

[Crimson]

He'll I'd take skip Bayless over mcshay

[Crimson]

Hell*

[Crimson]

Oh no Gruden will love every player that's selected. I'm switching to NFL network

[Ermaximus]

That's why I refuse to watch ESPN.

[Krimzon7]

I love gruden he makes me smil...PIZZA IS HERE! I'm ready for the draft no...

[Nark Order]

Wake me up at pick 7.

Well, fuck. I've gotta wait til 30.

[Ermaximus]

Well, fuck. I've gotta wait til 30.

You're also 3 hours behind me so, by the time the 49ers make their pick, it'll be 1 A.M. here.

[Next Big Thing]

I almost didn't recognize the draft without the 49ers picking in the Top 10. That's why this year felt so different!

[Ermaximus]

Guess I'll watch Community before the draft. I'll likely only miss 2 picks.

[ClockShot]

10 minutes in between picks. Oh dear.

[DaveBrawl]

I thought they weren't showing the players getting the call on camera this year? They didn't even make it past Luck. :lol:

[Crimson]

Wow NFL network is trying not to spoil the picks. They said they won't show the camera on the player before the pick, is espn doing the same thing?

[FearedSanctity]

I thought they weren't showing the players getting the call on camera this year? They didn't even make it past Luck. :lol:

Like they said, only doing it because we all knew it was coming DURRRRRRRR

Also, NFLN > ESPN

[Krimzon7]

There's literally no suspense with these two. They should show rgiii on the phone now

[DaveBrawl]

Like they said, only doing it because we all knew it was coming DURRRRRRRR

Also, NFLN > ESPN

Yeah I know, but I don't get NFLN at my new place. Well anymore, I had it when I moved it but a lot of the sports channels went out a week or two ago guess they were a preview package or something.

[Krimzon7]

Watching the highlight reel, I love the hit he put on that guy who tried to pick up the fumble!

[Crimson]

Luck has one ugly smile

[RoXer]

Luck has an annoying voice

[FearedSanctity]

Luck seems pretty "special"

[RoXer]

Look at that white girl he with

attaboy

[FearedSanctity]

RGIII with the nice snow bunny there

[Krimzon7]

RGIII with the nice snow bunny there

He did well.

[DaveBrawl]

All this hand slapping has me thinking of the Sportscenter commercial where everyone ends up with the flu.

[FearedSanctity]

These fucking on stage interviews are slowing shit down. #25 LETS GO

[Crimson]

RG3 seems to say the right things every single time. Smart guy. And he has a cute white girlfriend

[Krimzon7]

These fucking on stage interviews are slowing shit down. #25 LETS GO

They're only doing ONE ROUND tonight. They're drawing this ouuuuuuuuuuut

[FearedSanctity]

Tampa is on the clock at #5 and they're still on pick #3. Christ...

[FearedSanctity]

They're only doing ONE ROUND tonight. They're drawing this ouuuuuuuuuuut

It's already due to take like 4-5 hours regardless, how much more do they need to draw it out?

[ClockShot]

God this is going way to long. Already wanna smash my TV.

[DaveBrawl]

No way this thing finishes by 11:30 like they have scheduled unless they pick things up. Maybe the Broncos will be ready to pick by the time I wake up tomorrow.

[Krimzon7]

Nice touch to actually have the names on the jersey

[CSL]

some of you lot don't half moan

[ClockShot]

J'Ville traded up it seems.

Someone call ermax.

[FearedSanctity]

Why can't they just interview these faggots OFF the stage? This is ridiculous, pick 6 is in while they're still on 3

[Crimson]

Oh godd Schefter already spoiling picks on twitter..and so is espn..NFLN isnt spoiling anything. The hell with espn for today

[Next Big Thing]

I love seeing Goodell dap up the players and hold them gently. You don't see Stern doing that. It's like the honeymoon period before he makes them his bitch.

[Ermaximus]

WTF?

[Nark Order]

Black guys haven't had a very good record against hats tonight.

[ClockShot]

WTF?

Justin Blackmon is coming your way.

[CSL]

Cowboys apparently trade up to 6

[Ermaximus]

YES! YES! YES! YES!

[DaveBrawl]

Did the Rams just trade with Dallas?

[Crimson]

Oh wow..Cowboys have moved up to 6th

[Emperor Smeat]

Wow ESPN really is spoiling the picks, even their draft tracker is spoiling it. :lol: at St Louis immediately trading the pick once they found out early what the Jags took.

Jags have picked the best available WR in the draft by taking Blackmon. Tampa making the trade with the Jags cost them the player they wanted the most and now are about to lose the CB they wanted the most as well with the trade the Cowboys did.

[ClockShot]

The 'boys traded up. What's that senile fuck Jerry Jones up to?

[Crimson]

Im guessing Claiborne to the 'boys?? who's watching espn??

[ClockShot]

I wonder if they're moving at the speed of sloth so the seamstress can print and stitch the namepatch to the jersey?

[CSL]

6 picks in 36 minutes averaging 6 minutes-per-pick. Sloth-like

[Corndad]

Wow for the top being so predictable from 3 on has been crazy

[Crimson]

Blah..we have alot of needs. Claiborne better be worth it. bye bye Mike Jenkins

[Nark Order]

Oh shit @ Claiborne to the Cowfags.

[Ermaximus]

Who is good with photoshop?

[Krimzon7]

Deon is logging more air time on espn

[ClockShot]

Shut up with the RG1 crap, Eisen.

[ClockShot]

Look at that watch!

[Next Big Thing]

Is there a Dolphins suck chant going? Excellent.

[Ermaximus]

Shut up with the RG1 crap, Eisen.

I admit that I am a Redskin fan after being a Jag fan, and I'm not even sold on RG3. Washington is where QB's go to end their careers. It's like playing in Arizona.

[Crimson]

lol @ WHAT chants

[ClockShot]

Hmph. The fish got Tannehill after all. My boss was thinking Miami would be stupid and trade up to 3 to get him.

[Crimson]

Congrats Miami on drafting another bum qb

[Nark Order]

lol. The Dolphins are trying so hard to be bad.

[Ermaximus]

What other option did they have Crimson? You think they were gonna be sold on Matt Moore? Think they expected David Garrard to be the guy?

I tip my hat to the nfl network for not spoiling picks, but they got too many mouths in the booth.

[Krimzon7]

Whatever this hairdo

[ClockShot]

Chefs select that guy with the funky haircut.

[Krimzon7]

Eagles trade up?

[ClockShot]

Philly just traded up to the 12th pick.

Dontari Poe. Shirt by Nike, hair by some milk maid from the 1600's.

[FearedSanctity]

lol are Jest fans ever happy with anything?

[FearedSanctity]

FUCK

FUCK MY ENTIRE LIFE

[CSL]

Yelawolf at the draft sonnn

[Hanso Amore]

Your thoughts, Hanso?

I REALLY wanted Keuchly. But he wasnt there. Im happy with Gilmore. Dude is a legit top CB pick and we needed the help.

With Williams, Williams, Dareus and Anderson up front, Gilmore is going to really help this defense shut down the quick pass, and if you want to drop 7 deep, They are coming for you.

[Hanso Amore]

Draft shook out much different than I thought, but no one dropped huge to this point.

[ClockShot]

Pats traded up to the 21st.

[Emperor Smeat]

Good trade since they needed a good defensive player with DE or S as their main priority. Probably felt someone was going to take the DE from Syracuse that they wanted after not bothering to make a mega deal to get Claiborne or a bigger name early.

[ClockShot]

NFL Network gotta do this commercial free.

[Hanso Amore]

Anyone else fucking hate the new format....I am sooooo ready for the 2nd round tonight and have to wait :(

[CSL]

Pats apparently will take Little Bones Jones

[Hanso Amore]

*new* as in this is the 3rd year already....fuck thats crazy didnt seem that long ago they changed.

[CSL]

not going to lie, main reason for making that post was so I could write Little Bones Jones

[Hanso Amore]

I cannot believe im looking at the 21st pick and Donta Hightower is still on the board. Whomever gets him is going to fucking have a steal.

[Crimson]

Patriots do it again..Mayock said he'll be the best defensive player in this draft. Damnit

[Hanso Amore]

Had no idea Bones' had the two NFL brothers till today.

That Father needs to sell his sperm.

[Hanso Amore]

Kiper almost refusing to mention Jon Jones

[Crimson]

Weeden to Cleveland ..McCoy, meet the bench.

[ClockShot]

Whoa. Old man Weeden to the Browns.

There's your shocker of the night.

[Hanso Amore]

I Fucking Love Weeden, but at 22? Are you shitting me?

[CSL]

feeling a bit shit if I'm Colt McCoy rn

[Hanso Amore]

At best, Weeden will only have a 7 or 8 year career...

[Crimson]

Browns are rebuilding , by the time they have a nice team Weeden will retire

[Droford]

The whole Cleveland Browns organization should feel that way

[Droford]

I cannot believe im looking at the 21st pick and Donta Hightower is still on the board. Whomever gets him is going to fucking have a steal.

1 mock I saw had the Ravens taking him, the other had the Ravens taking the other Alabama LB..can't think of the name.

[Ermaximus]

Colt McCoy will make for a really good backup QB. That or he'll end up in Miami, Washington, or Arizona for a starting job.

[Hanso Amore]

Feel like Weeden would have been a better fit in Minnesota. They are a solid qb from making a wildcard run.

[Nark Order]

I'm on board with Weeden actually, but he's going to have to be put into play fairly soon. He might battle it out with Colt, but how much time can they afford to lose with him?

[Hanso Amore]

Colt McCoy will make for a really good backup QB. That or he'll end up in Miami, Washington, or Arizona for a starting job.

Im happy you got your guy, Buddy.

[ClockShot]

Denver traded down to New England?

FUCK!

[Triple Naitch]

Kendall Wright, the smallest person in his whole family.

[Nark Order]

Calvin Johnson, what the fuck.

[Hanso Amore]

Damn, Reiff to Lions is a sick pickup.

[Nark Order]

We're the Lions and we only draft guys that look like Matthew Stafford.

[Ermaximus]

Im happy you got your guy, Buddy.

I'm thinking Gene Smith must have been taking a shit when this all happened and Khan said "Fuck It!" and grabbed the best guy up there. Hoping he makes a huge difference for us seeing as the last good WR we had was Jimmy Smith/Keenan McCardell.

[Droford]

Hightower is a Raven, more or less. He was rumored to maybe go to Pittsburgh..

[Hanso Amore]

Decastro to Steelers sounds right

FUCKING PATS TRADE UP AGAIN TO TAKE HIGHTOWER


FUCK

[Triple Naitch]

I'm fine with the Broncos trading down.

[Ermaximus]

I don't see Lee Evans even making the team now. Blackmon is going to be the #2 WR and Robinson will be the #1 this year. Thomas will likely compete for the #3 spot, a spot he is best suited for.

[Hanso Amore]

FUCKING CHRIST DENVER STOP TRADING TO NE

[ClockShot]

Awwwwwwwwwww FUCK!

[Droford]

or The Patriots steal another player the Ravens want.

fuck

[CSL]

Belichick will probably turn one of those 2nd night picks into about 13 other picks

[ClockShot]

Fuck you, McDevil.

[Nark Order]

Hightower to the Pats. They needed some solid defensive players and here they are.

[Crimson]

Alright. Patriots will win the superbowl next year.

[Emperor Smeat]

:D nice.

Going to be interesting to see how he fits with the rotating system the Pats use now.

[Nark Order]

Come on, Alshon Jeffrey.

[Nark Order]

GOD DAMNIT, GET TO 30 ALREADY

[Crimson]

Freaking Pats..they just got way better..FUCK

[Nark Order]

Kind of going to laugh my ass off if the 9ers draft defense. They won't, but it would be pretty overpowered and ricockulous.

[Hanso Amore]

I wouldnt say WAY better, thats a bit of a stretch. But Its annoying they seem to vulture those Nice value picks.

[Droford]

Houston didnt need any more defense

[Nark Order]

Jesus Christ, Texans. How good does your defense need to be?

[Crimson]

I wouldnt say WAY better, thats a bit of a stretch. But Its annoying they seem to vulture those Nice value picks.

True that. Not right away but in the coming years if those players turn out to what everyone thinks... :-\

[Triple Naitch]

Lol did we just see an up skirt shot on Skype?

[Hanso Amore]

WOW. Mercilus has a mad annoying family

[Hanso Amore]

Jesus Christ, Texans. How good does your defense need to be?

They lost Williams to FA and traded Ryans. No reason not to stock up.

[Droford]

Word is the Ravens will take the other LB from Alabama, Courtney Upshaw. The mock I saw had him going to the Patriots at the end of the round with the Ravens taking Hightower..

[Hanso Amore]

And im out, Bengals taking a nice guard and CB to wrap the night. I like the Bengals last two drafts...I feel dirty

[Crimson]

I think GB might take him

[Nark Order]

It'll be interesting to see whether SF is going to try to replace Adam Snyder on the O-line or continue acquiring wideouts. Either one will be a good move.

Some are saying that we may even go for a RB if a quality one is available because of the future and all of that funny stuff.

[Crimson]

What about Fleener? And run a 2 tight end offense like the Pats?

[Droford]

Ravens traded their pick out..oh well

[Nark Order]

Baltimore trades?

[ClockShot]

Vikings traded up.

Ziggy wants to put butts in the seats.

[Droford]

They get the 3rd pick in the 2nd round and a 4th round pick. I imagine they figure whoever they wanted will probably still be there in 6 picks..I dunno.

[Nark Order]

ON THE FUCKING CLOCK

[ClockShot]

Enough with the commercials.

[ClockShot]

DENVER TRADED DOWN AGAIN?!??!?!!?

IT'S 2010 ALL OVER AGAIN!

[ClockShot]

Niners with another WR.

Is Matt Millen on the payroll, Narc?

[Skippord]

draft blue balls

right choice though

[Nark Order]

AJ JENKINS SON.

Had a feeling we'd go after another WR in the 1st. I'm happy. We need weapons.

[ClockShot]

Can't stay up.

Good night, boys.

[CSL]

Newwww Yorkkkk Giantssss

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>David Wilson. Holy shit, that actually surprised me. If they didn't get Doug Martin I assumed they'd go without a RB until later.</font>

[CSL]

quickest 1st round ever by 22 minutes

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Can't help but wonder if the Giants wanted Doug Martin (linked to the Giants all week) which is why the Bucs jumped right ahead of them. I figured since Martin was gone they'd go with one of the WRs and grab a RB in the late rounds. Obviously they like Wilson then. Eager to see what he can do.</font>

[Gonzo]

He looks slow as shit on film. Dunno, haven't really "sweated" a draft pick in some years though.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah everybody hated the JPP pick too and that turned out pretty damn well. After 2 SB wins I'm well past the point where I could question any Reese pick unless he picked a QB in the first or something.</font>

lol

[Skippord]

not saying anything about David Wilson BTW, would have liked the Broncos to take him somewhere later in the draft

funny play tho

[Gonzo]

lol

Yeah that's all I could think when I saw the initial highlights on ESPN coverage.

[RP]

Anyone know who the Colts tool?

Nah

How wild would it be if Colts got Fleener too.

I want the Guard from Georgia. We got our two future tackles in last years draft.r

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Reese has already come out and said that David Wilson was the #2 RB on their draft board (Richardson would presumably be first, because teams rank everybody even if there's no chance to get them) - so the Giants got the guy they wanted. I trust him.

Although with so many interesting players still on the board, I do wonder if the Giants would consider moving up. They can afford to have less picks in the draft because Reese always seems to find gems in the undrafted free agent pool.</font>

[Innovator]

I just accepted that Reese knows what he's doing.

[OssMan]

Fuck the draft

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Luke Kuechly went to my high school. And now he's a top 10 draft pick. That's kinda neat.

[Hanso Amore]

I Hate waiting for the next round GODDAMN IT

[FearedSanctity]

Denver traded down TWICE and really only managed to pick up a SINGLE 4th round pick. What in the actual fuck?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Some Dick Prank Called Mohamed Sanu And Told Him He’d Been Drafted (http://deadspin.com/5905746/some-dick-prank-called-mohamed-sanu-and-told-him-hed-been-drafted?popular=true)


lol that's so mean. wonder how many times someone has done that

[ClockShot]

Browns wanna flip Colt McCoy.

Yeah, unless he gets a team of his own, he's gonna be the next Matt Leinart. Then again, he's in Cleveland so let's try Brady Quinn.

[Ermaximus]

Browns wanna flip Colt McCoy.

Only teams I could see taking him at this point would be Seattle, Arizona, or Buffalo. He won't be a starter anywhere he goes.

[FearedSanctity]

Packers want him, apparently. They need a new backup with Flynn gone

[Ermaximus]

That would make sense actually.

[ClockShot]

How long will he be content sitting behind Mr. Rodgers?

[Hanso Amore]

McCoy wouldnt start in Buffalo either. At least not for awhile. These fuckers love Fitz Magic.

[FearedSanctity]

Yeah OK, and given that not too long ago you also told Colt you wouldn't be drafting a QB in the first....

[Supreme Olajuwon]

That statement doesn't mean anything. "Engaged in any movement" means they haven't traded or released him. That doesn't say anything about their desire to move him or the talks they've had with other teams about moving him. It just means they haven't moved him yet.

I'm not falling for your fancy statements, Pat.
