Steelers are doing a good job this year in managing their picks selecting very good players. They need an ILB and a backup RB now.

Yes but I didn't know who she was. Thanks.

Love him. Hope he returns to pre-injury form.

Love Corn.

Cardinals going with another small school sleeper type WR - Chad Williams. Was charged with marijuana posession and possession of firearms around the start of the year (if memory serves me correctly). Had a suspension. Highly productive kid, though. Breaks a bunch of tackles but needs a lot of work with his routes. This has the chance to be scary in an Arians offense once they work with him unless he proves to still be an idiot with that decision making.

Eagles go with another DB target - Rasul Douglas.

Corn is my favorite option left now. Tony Bridges and Nate Hairston are two others for later on.

Bleh damn the Eagles.. Douglas is going to be good for them..

Fair to say at this point that the teams that said they loved Carl Lawson and/or weren't scared off by the injury wasn't or may not have necessarily been the truth. The medicals might be the thing at the top of the list for him. Some smaller stuff but he still should go soon UNLESS it's the injury stuff doing it.

Yikes. Broncos taking CB Brendan Langley from Lamar. Really liked what I saw and read on that guy but that's a bit high for me there considering what's left.

He needs a lot of work and didn't play a lot of coverages. He'd be one heck of a fun project to work with though if his production isn't tied into my job security.

They forgot Baalke got fired and just assumed the Niners already drafted him?

Um, how about we wait a bit on that?

The idea of Josh Dobbs in the 4th round is starting to appeal to me...

Seahawks take the very large Nazair Jones of UNC. Was a big medical flag guy. Was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome in high school. He lost 50 lbs and couldn't walk from it. Didn't get many offers but wound up at UNC. Has some of the longest arms in this draft (sadly). Good initial strength and punch. For him the bad is a bunch of technique stuff that's smaller. A lot of people had him in the 5th rounds or later. I liked him a bit earlier than that. This was right around the earliest I'd have wanted to go with him.

Not happy about that one.

Langley to the Broncos looks like a potential starter for them.

I don't Like Nazair Jones to the Seachickens... He could very well be a run stuffing monster for them.
