The Draft Thread

Curry, Still, Worthy for Carolina? Do they go Trumain Johnson? Maybe a WR for Cam? Lots to select from right now.

I have this gut feeling Jenkins could be better than Claiborne.

Actually, it's more me hoping the Cowboys picked a bust than anything.

Janoris Jenkins is the best cover man in this draft, even better than Claiborne though Caliborne is better in run support. But I would not take a risk on him. Doesn't mean I won't root for him to overcome.

Saw Branch play several times. He is overrated.

Jeff, I've always wondered. Why did the Colts get to pick 1st in the 1st round and STL got to pick 1st in the 2nd round?

They had same record, tiebreakers gave Colts first in odd rounds, Rams get it in even rounds.

Panthers springing for Silatolu. Doing a very nice job IMO.

Rucker looks like he can still ball, and I freaking love this pick. Replaces Wharton and he is a Iupati-like run blocker right now.

Good pick. We need him after letting Wharton go. Smart move.

Thanks for the clarification Jeff, it's been bugging me for months. And I was thinking the same thing, when he was at the podium I knew it was Mike Rucker, but wasn't sure since he looked like he's aged really well and still looks like he could play

Thank you Carolina, Curry to the Jets!

Bills are taking Cordy Glenn, OL coach gets his man. If you read my "final draft notes" piece, you know what I mean :wink:

Jets moving up! Who's this for? Hill? RB?

Icness, care for 3 sentence scouting report on Glenn for someone who knows literally 0 about college football prospects and who is only tracking online? ESPN draftcasters saying they were thinking about him at 10. Sounds good to me.

Carolina has no 3rd. Dont know if they are going to try and get back in tonight. Going to take a break and watch Who Do You Think You Are? in a few and then come back in an hour.

Gotta be Vinny, please be Vinny! Our D needs so much help, hope we didn't give up too much though, we have so much holes to fill.

Jets trade in here, giving 5th and 7th to SEA.

Post #357 » by **PhilipNelsonFan** » Fri Apr 27, 2012 11:45 pm

Pete's doing a good job collecting extra picks. Seahawks fans may have hated the Bruce Irvin selection (I know my SEA fan friends did) but the full body of work could be promising.

Jonathan Martin looks like a fat Ahmad Rashad.

Post #359 » by **PhilipNelsonFan** » Fri Apr 27, 2012 11:46 pm

MIA falls on the Jonathan Martin grenade. Was there any chance he could start at G?

Yuck at Curry.
