Can you change your avatar? Making me want to go watch some P O R N instead of the draft.

They're definitely in the discussion for best D-line in the NFL.

I'd say they were one of the top DL's last year. Adding Aaron Donald only makes them that much better, if he is as good as they believe he will be.

St. Louis finished with 53 sacks last year -- 3rd in the NFL and most of them came from their DL. I think Quinn and Long had like 30 sacks between the two of them. Pretty crazy numbers for those guys.

I think we probably sit and wait to see who falls to us at this point

Yeah but they use a lot of spread sets and Peyton sure loves to spread the ball around. Biggest thing is he'll get to learn from great players.

Absolutely -- I think he could fill the role that was left by Decker leaving for the Jets. Sanders (i believe that is who they signed) seems like more of a slot type of WR.

I wonder what is the scoop on Ealy?!? I saw a lot of mock drafts that him going in the middle of the 1st round. Curious why he is dropping so much. Anyone have any idea?

Tell that to injury prone and near bust Sam Bradford..


Bradford is no stud. He is better than what played QB for them last year. They did establish arunning presence late in season and should be okay with a stellar Defense on paper now.

Watch Jax (who got SF49er's 2nd of their 2nd round picks #61 in a trade) draft OC Marcus Martin USC... Jax C Brad Meester just retired this year


Marcus Martin was my favorite C in this entire draft. Only TRUE Freshman O-Lineman to ever start 1st game in the history of school

Good lord -- No kidding. He won't be asked to do too much and he will have Peyton Manning throwing him the ball. He is going to have to battle for playing time in Denver though. Didn't they sign the WR from Pitt to go with Demaryius Thomas and Wes Welker?

Yep. Tons of WR talent on that roster.

Guess it doesn't matter now. Pretty wild that the Panthers took him. They already have Greg Hardy and Charles Johnson. Ealy gives them some great depth at the DE position, not that they needed it, as Carolina led the NFL in sacks with 60 last year.

That is a crazy amount -- 60 sacks?! They averaged almost 4 sacks a game. Very impressive.

odd pick as they have 2 good DEs already and have no WRs other than the 1 they just drafted. So many holes on offense too.


Tgheir games are going to have baseball scores

Two of my favorite remaining guys just went back to back... I still like McGill in the 3rd. Martin is still there, too, I think...

Not a whole lot of WR talent left at this point... all the big names gone... still some quality options I suppose- Landry from LSU, Moncrief from Ole Miss, Bennet from Clemson, Norwood from 'Bama... any others?

Yeah -- Zac Stacy was pretty good for them last year. Ran for almost a 1000 yards even though he didn't play until the 3rd game. Not too shabby when you have to face, Seattle, SF and Arizona's defense twice each a year.

They added Greg Robinson too -- so that should help them in the running game too, as I read they will use him inside most likely this year, as they have Jake Long at LT, and move him to LT after Long is gone.
