Steelers
I think either Glenn or Poe would be the better pick.
"If you havin' dragon problems I feel bad for you son, I got 99 arrows but my knee took one."
Yea, I was thinking that you guys were stacked at DL
I picked Barron because he’s a top 20 player and you guys can use another S in the mix to mold behind Troy. But I’ll definitely consider Glenn next time, thanks.
Can't stand the truth?
We will have no starting NTs to begin the year, unfortunately, so taking one within the first three round is almost a must.
"If you havin' dragon problems I feel bad for you son, I got 99 arrows but my knee took one."
Oh Ok
Yea, Poe would be a great pick b/c he’s like 350 lbs, perfect for that NT position. thanks.
Can't stand the truth?
Yea Allen would be awesome with Eli throwing to him
Plus, he’ll be way better than Ballard, Beckum, or Pascoe!
Can't stand the truth?
Exactly, we'd be able to keep Ballard as our 2nd TE
And as good as Ballard has been as our #1 TE, he’d be more boss as a #2 TE cause he’d get even less attention from coverage than he already does.
Do you see Ingram as a 4-3 DE
or a SLB?

LB
with his height + athleticism, he reminds me of Lamar Woodley. Also MIA lost J Taylor, so I figured you guys could use another rusher.
Can't stand the truth?
Sorry Bills fan
was wondering since miami was going back to the 4-3 as well,from what i’ve read.

Ingram is a young Adailus Thomas clone
he can play anywhere. LB, DT, DE, Rush OLB, even safety or nickel corner. He’s that athletic.

Chargers
I know CB isn’t a huge need on the chargers but I love this pick because they need a #2 corner and Jammer isn’t getting any younger. However A.J. Smith is notorious for picking players based on positional needs instead of talent. I see them taking Mercilus here.
That's exactly why i picked him, b/c of Jammer's age
I didn’t know that DE was a need since you guys drafted Liuget last year, and have Castillo on the other side?
Can't stand the truth?
If the Bengals come out of the first round with DeCastro and Dennard, I'll be an extremely happy person.

Yea
One of my best friends is a Bengals fan, so i asked him what they needed. He told me they could use an OG, CB, HB, WR, and S.
Can't stand the truth?
im leaning more and more away from dennard
I would rather grab gilmore instead.
by JCompton41 on Feb 1, 2012 10:48 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
I'm on the same page
Dennard is looking more and more like a second, possibly third rounder to me. But DeCastro would be a huge win for us. He’s the best player still on the board and fits a huge need for the team.
by Animal_Like_Football on Feb 1, 2012 11:11 AM EST up reply actions
oh yea
Decastros my 3rd best player for the bengals in the whole draft.
by JCompton41 on Feb 1, 2012 11:25 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
2nd in my book
Only behind Claiborne whose not even a realistic option. If you switch Dennard with Gilmore this would be perfect
im putting luck and kirkpatrick over him
And neither are realistic.

I am amazed that people are still mocking DTs to the Panthers
our coach said that it isnt a weakness or a problem, we took 2 last year, anwe have other needs
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
You guys can use a 3-Tech DT
Devin Still is a combo of need and BAP. Who would you rather have?
Can't stand the truth?
Blackmon, Kirkpatrick, Coples, Jenkins, or Brown
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
by pcroadrage on Jan 31, 2012 9:42 PM EST up reply actions 1 recs
Blackmon is top 5 worthy
Kirkpatrick and Coples are top 10 worthy. Jenkins and Brown are a stretch but i like them a lot more than Still. I think Still is the most over hyped player in the draft due to DT being a weak spot this year. We also really dont need a DT. We have Edwards returning who did get to play last year, we drafted 2 early last year. and Neblett, Kearse, and Shirley all looked very promising last year
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
I'll probably give u guys Coples next time but
All Kirkpatrick does is play zone and Blackmon doesn’t have the elite speed to be a top 10 pick, combine that with his size and system he played in college, and it’s a recipe for disaster.
Can't stand the truth?
Fitz doesnt have elite speed either
and all Alabama plays is man
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
Yea but Fitz has the size and route running and hands and big playmaking ability
Blackmon has none of that, plus he’s slow. Please don’t compare Blackmon to Fitz lol.
Can't stand the truth?
by Aristotle45 on Jan 31, 2012 10:29 PM EST up reply actions
Fitz is a little bigger
but he’s not faster, probably even slower. They have similar playmaking skills. Blackmon is basically TO minus the locker room problems
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
blackmons not top 10 worthy
He is not the level of prospect as aj green or even julio Jones were last year.
by JCompton41 on Feb 1, 2012 10:50 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
At this point last year
Julio Jones wasnt even top 15. his draft stock blew up after the combine because he ran a 4.3. I think Blackmon is better than Jones and can compete with Green
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
i disagree
I really think fans hype blackmon way more than teams are.
by JCompton41 on Feb 1, 2012 3:48 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Not quite.
Jones blew up after the combine, because the media draftniks finally figured out what the scouts knew all along. Do you really think NFL scouts rely on the scouting combine to find out fast an elite prospect is?

I think that the combine and really boost a players status with a good preformance
especially the 40 for a skill position

Maybe in boost a status in your mind or the media's...
…but not a pro scout.

Jags
Based on the pick, you are obviously clueless. (Obviously you are not clueless about “your team” but after being bashed for using that line on someone else’s post, I think it is my new go-to line when I dislike picks.)
Truthfully though, the pick does not seem to fit for a variety of reasons. If you were going by need, I think Coples and Blackmon and Martin have got to be better value at the pick. If you go by BAP, Coples or Martin or Jenkins.Kirkpatrick are all better picks IMO. I like Wright, but I really do not think he fits at 7.

Lol at the clueless comment.
Reason I chose Wright:
I’m a huge believer in Kendall. This guy is a straight up playmaker. He’s the top WR in this draft class and He’s the only one with a real combination of speed and route running. The only knock on him is his size, but that doesn’t really matter because he makes very difficult catches. This guy has it all. Plus, Gene likes to pick guys in the 1st round that can play right away, and this guy is a mismatch nightmare. Go back and look at some tape.

by Aristotle45 on Jan 31, 2012 10:03 PM EST up reply actions
still think he is BAP though? I am really not sure he is, regardless of how good he actually is. Let us not forget this is the #7 pick. Do you really think that there are no more than 6 people in this draft better than Kendall Wright? I find it hard to make a solid argument for that given Luck and RG III and Kalil and Claiborne and Reiff and Richardson as almost locks for being better.

I think he's BAP in an area of serious need
it really depends on Gene’s board. and if you noticed that all of those players you mentioned are gone by pick 7, so Wright would make perfect sense.

fair enouh
if you really think he is 7th best player on the board or better than he makes sense at the pick.

i think kendall wright is perfect for the jags
Bratkoski will see him as a young ochochinco, and a great option for gabbets cannon ARM.

1)Bratkowski is not making the pick
2)that is great and all, but if he is not good value at the pick, he still should not be the pick.

im sure your new offensive cord gets some say in who he wants in his new offense
And every team values players different. It’s not like wright is not a first round pick, its but a matter of where in the first round.

When will people realize
that Luck will not be an elite NFL qb? He will be good, and he is the most pro-ready qb in the draft, but his cieling is not that high. He is no Peyton, Stafford, Brady, or even Newton. He will play at a decent level, and probably make a couple Pro-Bowls, but he won’t be elite. In terms of production, think Carson Palmer.
Tengo el sangre del tigre.
I kind of agree with you
The offense they ran at Stanford was very friendly to QB’s. I put him first b/c there are reports that the Colts already have their mind made up and they need a QB. I think he’ll be good, but not Elway/Manning like.

just a suggestion(2 actually)
1)Bowe=UFA
Breaston=not all that great
Baldwin= pretty good
2)Why not add another B to the group of WRs?!!

Can’t hate on Janoris too much. If he was still at Florida he would have been considered a top ten guy coming into the year. Some Cowboys fans would be mad at passing on DeCastro but I am not one of them.
If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.
Titans.
Can we get Mercilus, Konz, Barron, or Perry instead? We got 3 DT last year in the draft and 2 were huge hits and Shawn Smith is still under contract.

1. Kelechi Osemele, OT/G, Iowa State
2.Xavier Rhodes CB FSU/ Vinny Curry OLB/DE Marshall/ LaMichael James*, RB, Oregon
3. Brandon Boykin, CB/KR/PR, Georgia/ Alex Okafor*, DE, Texas
4. DeMarlo belcher WR Indiana
5. Casey Hayward, CB, Vanderbilt
6. Marvin Jones WR Cal
7.T.J. Barnes*, DT/NT, Georgia Tech
I doubt he drops that far anyways

Broncos
I dont think Worthy is worth a 1st round pick his talent and potential is 1st round quality but his production and work rate is not and I dont think they will reach with their picks.
Would rather trade out of the 1st round and pick up more picks than reach at 25.

Interesting that you mocked Janoris to the Cowboys with Dre still on the board
Why was that?
Let me be the scouting director AND the GM
Bengals
17 – You are spot on in that if RIchardson is gone (likely) and DeCastro is available, then the Bengals pull the trigger on the number 1 guard in the draft.
21 – With Jenkins off the board, I would prefer Barron. Crocker looked atrocious, Nelson is a free agent and Mays and Sands are huge question marks. You’lll notice I didn’t mention Jeromy Miles, because he’s a special teamer, nothing more.
like giants draft
