2013 Draft Day Thread

who we taking?....anybody got a clue?

I got nothing. Jonathan Cyprien would be my guess.

Anytime you can take a 5'8" punt returner from the Big East in the Top 10, I say you have to do it.

That was a formidable OU D.

That was a formidable OU D.

It was 572 all purpose yds. he makes the first guy miss on every play..

in this draft I'd take a chance on that player any day...

Getting worried Jarvis Jones ends up in Pittsburgh.. that's too much SEC production not to translate to the NFL

 

[bengaldoug]

Listened to Cowherd this morning, he absolutely was in love with Austin. Said he was his most productive in his biggest games, unlike some other receivers that had bigger names earlier. Someone on ESPN, I forget who, predicted the Rams would trade with the Bills to pick him.

The two big name DTs are still on the board...

they were top 10 locks in the media a month ago

I just can't see drafting a small wide out in the top 10 of the draft.... Too many haunting memories of guys like Desmond Howard and Peter Warrick. Maybe I'm old school and the game has changed..... But it still strikes me that the best receivers have height.

Good point..... In this draft, you can take a lot of risks, because there doesn't appear to be many sure things.

I agree that as pure receiver he's not going to be an elite number one or anything close to it..

but as a slot wr/rb/return man i think he's going to be a big time playmaker.. if he stays healthy I think he can be as good as Harvin.. I appearently also compared Vick to Steve Young after the 2010 season so comparisons probably aren't my strength

I think Gruden's given up the dream of going back to coaching..

he's killing everyone tonight...

No kidding.... A few years ago we were all killing him for being such a kiss-ass..... He's now gone the other direction.

BTW -- He makes Star sound a lot like Peko.

Chris Berman is fucking awful. I mute the TV when he starts babbling.

 

[Tubbs1518]

Browns might have a solid pass rush between Kruger and Mingo

They also have Sheard.

He's making Geno Smith sound like Sanchez. he's going through the flaws of every player...

I'm on NFL network...might have to switch over.

 

[cincygrad]

WOW! Didn't have Manuel being the qb selected.

 

[futballiscool]

Ryan Nassib must be pissed...

TB made a run at every QB on the open market this season. there was a story on PFT that they'd consider going back into the 1st. i'm wondering if they'll do it for a QB they like...

 

[cincygrad]

BTW -- I wish Kramer were awake so he could watch us pass over Geno Smith. That would be a fun moment.

Steelers with the best pick of the draft so far. Jones is a beast.
