Manti Te'o...NFL Draft

[Red_Alert]

Poll forthcoming.

I said late 1st round, but it's whoever wants to take a chance on him. You never now it could be early or mid 1st round (not counting on it) or not till early to mid 2nd round.

Between 16 and 25 imo but I could see 2nd round. I'm basing this solely on him being exposed in the Natty. He faced loads of NFL caliber players in that game and looked like a walk on.

Where will he go or where should he go?

That's what I based my pick on too. That and what I think may be a poor combine. I thought he looked out of shape in the interview..

Will

He doesn't have prototypical size or speed. WIthout putting up monster numbers at the combine I don't see WHY anyone should take him in the first round at all.

 

[Red_Alert]

Currently @ 27th pick and still on the board.

Adam Schefter is saying the Vikings are on the phone trying to trade back up to the First round to take Manti T'eo.

Apparently they are offering their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks.

 

[Red_Alert]

#29 New England on the clock

 

[Red_Alert]

Minnesota trades 2nd, 3rd, and 4th and 7th for New Englands #29 pick....

 

[Red_Alert]

Vikings take WR Patterson - Tennessee with 29th pick.

T'eo falls to the 2nd Round..

Glad to see none of the NFL teams fell for the ESPN hype machine.

He's going to be a solid pickup for whoever gets him. He wasn't a first rounder so it doesn't shock me that he wasn't taken. At this point though in the right situation he'll be a nice acquisition.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Looks like early to mid 2nd. I will LMAO if doesn't go till 3rd.

His combine was just too weak, not 1st or even 2nd rd material

You have to go with overall college career over the combine. The guy has the instincts and is a leader. Again, in the right situation the guy will do well.

Well the reason why players drop is mostly bc of the combine, doesn't mean they will be bad players, it is just the way it works.

He could be productive but going by the combine and a 4.9 40, someone will take a chance on him. Just bc a player was ridiculous in college doesn't mean it will happen in the NFL, and now his leadership skills are even in question after the incident.

I'm glad Te'o went in the 2nd, but hate that he wound up with the Chargers. I hate the Chargers so now it will hard to root for this kid.
