Post-Superbowl Mock Draft.
I have no voice. Still hasn't really hit me yet. Already have gotten the official SB XLVI NYG T-Shirt. Didn't sleep last night. You get the picture.
Won't stop me from mocking though. I am only mocking one trade, St. Louis - Washington. Also going under assumption that Peyton Manning signing with Miami. No reason why, just gut instinct.
You might see some similarities from my last mock...that's because I used the critiques to try and get a better idea of what happens.
Also, just a bit of a disclaimer, the way I do these mocks is by going one pick at a time, with no inkling of who will be available for the team in the next round, just like the real thing. So some players will fall because of positional value and need, while some will rise for the same reason. Only 3 rounds this time, don't want to do more until compensatory picks come out.

I really do not like David Wilson..
I agree that we need a RB and if he is the best on your board, then I approve of the pick, but there are a few other guys that I would much rather have. Wilson runs too side to side for me.
Also, please inform me, who is this Shea McClellin fellow you have us grabbing with our third rounder
RIP Nick Adenhart
DE/LB from Boise State. Undersized, but athletic and could be a DE/SAM for us.
BPA pick. Really helped his stock at the Senior Bowl.
I have Wilson as the BPA as well. Slightly higher than Doug Martin for running backs.

Well there you go, you have a SAM too
but I just see the Giants trying to get faster and faster, and I would assume somebody like Keenan Robinson or Bradham fit the mold of the SAM that they want to switch to.
yeah, I would've liked Robinson more, but he didn't fall to us this time.
I really liked what I saw out of Shea recently, so I just went with him. Bradham would work too, I suppose.

I was also thinking Donte Paige-Moss as well. Raw talent, risky prospect...could pay off in spades though
with the right coaching….and the Giants would be the best team for that when it comes to passrushers.

by BigBlueIntervention on Feb 6, 2012 7:49 PM EST up reply actions
Yeah, I think given what we know about the Giants
Paige-Moss is definitely in play. Btw, I didn’t feel the need to comment because it’s almost commonplace now, I do love Dwayne Allen.
given the way the D is trending
I don’t see how McLellin fits. It almost was like Kiwi was phased out of the defense the past few weeks, even against the Niners when he should’ve been playing a lot more to stop the run.
Guys like Bradham and Tank Carder are I think were we go with LBeezers.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
I like Bradham too...I just liked the pass rush ability of Mclellin more. I can see Bradham too.
And for the record, I thought that was a mistake by Fewell to not play Kiwi. Carder I see as another Blackburn…great instincts, physically limited, no sideline to sideline.

I think if they go McClellin they are looking at pass rush ability
I’m stealing the Wilson pick for my sig, need to get rid of high OL and find room for a TE.
I would not mind Allen. He’d fit us well.
My QB has 2 rings. Well, 3 if you want to get technical.
2012 NYG mock - 1: Janoris Jenkins CB, 2: David Wilson RB, 3: A.J. Jenkins WR, 4: Kevin Koger TE, 5: Neiko Thorpe S, 6: Rishard Matthews WR, 6: some random LB, 7: BPA
Changed my mind already
Like Wilson, but I don’t think he falls to us. I’ve adopted Allen instead. He’s got blocking experience, even if it is not necessarily in-line. I’m looking at our opponents, and I see Allen blocking Kerrigan, Spencer, or Babin in the wide9. Some mobility good for blocking those guys.

I don't hate Wilson
But if the Giants draft him, he needs to block/receive well.
I don’t know anything about Shea McClellin, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see a DE, but I’d love to see Nigel Bradham (eventual Kiwi replacement) or Harrison Smith in the 3rd.
definitely like Smith, probably should go higher than the 4th. I really really like Barron and Taylor at safety....
I have Iloka there mainly for his size, he’s a freak.

Given that Doug Martin is still on your board
He’s the RB to take. Ray Rice/MJD potential there.
Why on earth would the Bills
draft a guard in rd 2. I can see Corner,OLB,DE,WR,TE,OT,QB,CB before guard for the Bills in that round.

Sanders may or may not be a tackle...
But I just don’t see him being the pick there, I think Irvin or Tannehill are more likely in that spot. Also if Toon is there in the third, there is no way they pass for a player at a position the coach largely ignores.

Jags
before commenting, let me preface by congratulating you on your team’s victory. As a NYer I am kind of happy New England lost, although I do admit I hate both teams and a good portion of the fans I know of each team.
As for the Jags picks:
1)Coples or Reiff are the two guys I think fit best. Right now, I think I still go Reiff, but solid combine and/or pro-day from Coples and he could become the better pick IMO. I was on the Kirkpatrick bandwagon, but I have cooled off regarding him as of late.
2)Gilmore is a very nice pick. EXCELLENT value and he happens to address a need. Other guys I also like are Fleener and a bunch of WRs(some not even in your first 3 rounds)
3)I can’t say the pick is bad, but there are guys who I definitely feel present themselves as better options with the pick. Tommy Streeter and Cam Johnson are the two guys who stand out to me as potentially being better picks for the Jags in the 3rd round.

Love the draft for Dallas.
Positionally that is pretty much what I would like. Of course perhaps an even better draft would go Ingram, Ben Jones/Dontari Poe, and then Judie or Boykins. Still though, quite good in my opinion.
If I had a nickel for every Super Bowl the Eagles have won, I would have zero nickels.
yeah not bad

Vikes draft grade: C-
Matt Kalil—A
Dwight Jones—F
Lavonte David—C-
Should have gone:
Kalil
Stephen Gilmore
Keenan Robinson
Please stop mocking a WR in the 1st or 2nd round!

why not grab a WR? Ponder could use a defense stretching weapon like Jones, who's a first round talent.

by BigBlueIntervention on Feb 6, 2012 10:17 PM EST up reply actions
Several reasons
Mainly I don’t agree that Jones is a first round talent, or even top of the 2nd round for that matter. Receivers typically take longer to have an impact on their team than other positions. The Vikings need to address their defense early and often. In fact, after the Kalil pick, I would be happy if the other 9 draft picks were all used on defensive players. I hope the Vikings add a WR in free agency rather than early in the draft.
"At this point, what we got to lose, right? So we might as well throw caution to the wind and hit people in the face."
--Vikings DE Jared Allen
I agree
Might want to look a DT in the second as well. All the good ones come off this mock in the second.
But yea we’re looking at up to 30mil in cap space this year. We’ll get a WR and a CB at least.
yup, that 2nd round pick might come down to taking the best CB or DT available
Of course depending on what happens in the 1st round.

I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
Asi Asi Picks for the Bengals I would have gone
DeCastro If He fell to 17 and at 21 Janoris Jenkins and in the 2nd get Brandon Thompson and 3rd get Isaiah Pead
Giants
I know you and Roscharch are down on Burfict, but I think he’ll make Giants dool. Can’t see them passing on him.
Like the Allen pick though I’ve also said a 1,000 times a big fan of Gilmore so I wouldn’t mind that pick either.
Like the Wilson pick
Don’t like the Mclelin pick
Id rather them take a player like Furman CB Ryan Steed, or a WR like Ryan Broyles there (if healthy) maybe Chris Givens

what about Burfict will make the Giants drool?
is it his uncontrollable temperament? Or is it his flat out ignorance?
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
His terrific length, his athletic ability, his plus production at a major BCS School.
You know who else was considered ignorant and stupid before the Giants drafted them?
Jason Pierre Paul and Mario Manningham

he's not as good an athlete as made out to be
and his production is well, well below subpar for a major BCS school.
Manningham produced like a #1 WR and was a 3rd round pick. JPP isn’t stupid either, that’s a real stupid thing to say. He just was inexperienced.
Burfict is dumb. And he’s got way too many screws loose.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
JPP had a reputation of being stupid. He had a low wonderlic score.
That’s what I was referring too.
Burfict has long arms, he’s athletic, he plays a position of need, he can rush the quarterback, and he has a lot of upside.
LIke it or not I think he will intrigue the Giants.
And I didn’t know you knew Burfict personally….
Because if you don’t the interview the Giants will conduct and not you or me will decide whether or not they think he has screws loose. You or I don’t know that, they will do their due diligence and if checks out Burfict is a real possibility for the Giants if he’s available.

wonderlic has nothing to do with overall intelligence
its just a BS football test.
Burfict has long arms yay, he’s not athletic, we don’t need a LB, if he can rush the passer he sure hasn’t done it on Saturdays. I don’t know Burfict at all, but you can’t tell me one way, other then making stuff up or using his high school stats, that he does one thing teh GIants want out of a player.
In fact, he’s the type of player that’s not even on their draft board like Sean Weatherspoon.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
He has 5 sacks this year
from the MLB spot.
So Im not sure which games you were watching

ur wrong about one thing, he may be dumb.
but he is the kind of player the giants draft.
just cause u dont like him doesnt mean the giants are interested.
if he’s available @ 32. the giants will take a long and hard look at him. and he very well may be wearing blue next year.

there's nothing about Burfict that matches their picks in the past
unless he’s a 3rd or 4th rounder that is.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
you're almost right.
but the one thing that matches what they love is that the giants like, absolutley love a pottential steal.
and with burfict being the most physically gifted LB in the draft (their kinda player) they will have him high on the board.
if he passes the pre-draft interviews and is still on the board.
i think it will be between him and allen

and JPP's character and desire on the football field was unquestioned
it was also why we drafted him cuz we knew he’d reach his potential given how hard he worked. He was raw, but he plays like an undersized white dude.
Burfict is lazy, dumb and hurts his team more then he helps it. I dunno why you’re even suggesting he’s a possibility.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Reason I don't like Vontaze is because he is exactly who the Giants don't look for in the first round.
Is he gifted athletically? I wouldn’t be surprised if he blew up the combine….but that’s only one part of the puzzle. He has almost no concept of gap control, has terrible tackling technique (launches himself instead of wrapping up most of the time) and if his disciplinary issue was him being too aggressive, I wouldn’t have a problem. There are reports everywhere about him dogging it in practice, giving up on plays, fighting with coaches. We DO look at character as well when drafting 1st round picks.
Ross, Phillips, Nicks, Pierre-Paul, and Amukamara had no character red flags at all. Pierre-Paul was actually the opposite: http://www.sports-central.org/sports/2011/11/19/the_next_big_thing.php
Sustaining a neck injury during a game and immobilized on a gurney, he was rushed by ambulance to a hospital. Reappearing in the second half with a doctor’s note and “put me back in” pleas, he returned to the field breaking two fingers and collecting three sacks in the process. After winning the game, his dumbfounded coach commented “amazing” as little more than what others were already thinking.
The dude was carried out on a hospital stretcher in the 1st half, and then came back in the 2nd, broke fingers and got sacks. That’s the type of aggression we’re looking for.

We'll see
I just think it’s silly to rule out Burfict like Roscharch seems to dismiss the possibility the of the Giants entertaining that pick.
And those things you mentioned: gap control, tackling technique can be taught by coaching
I would not be surprised at all if the Giants ended up selecting vontaze Burfict and at the end of round one, It’s not a really big risk. I strongly disliked the thought when the Giants were heading towards the 15th pick, but at 32?
Pick looks much better.
But again, he’s not MY ideal choice. I like Stephon Gilmore there, I like Allen there, I like Kendall Wright if available. and I like Mark Barron there too (Fewell even with Buffalo ran a ton of 3 Safety sets and the Giants don’t have a 3 Safety right now). I’d be ok with a RB
I’d love to see Kuechly there. That’d be terrific if he feel because of measurables.
I just think it’s crazy to dismiss Burfcit is my point

Character
Never said JPP had character concerns I said people were making a big deal about his wonderlic. score.
My point is this: Giants fans need to keep an open mind about Burfict because WE are not interveiwing him and spending Hours of background on him. WE don’t know him.
IF he checks out, the Giants may very well draft him if he’s available at 32 overall because his upside is undeniable and the Giants have a stable locker room and great leadership, which is a good fit for Burfict

Eh, I'm still firmly against Burfict based on what I've seen of him. Agree to disagree I suppose.
If we draft him, I will assume Jerry did his homework and I’d be OK with it. But with mock drafts, you pretend to be the GM and based on JR’s draft tendencies, Burfict doesn’t match up. Reading these confirmed my suspicions:

how does that first one turn you off Burfict
What snippets turn you off from Burfict this one:
“Tez Has Heart: It is what makes him great, and terrible, if he can harness this, which is what ASU fans have been saying for three years, he can be unstoppable. Now he has developed a bad reputation, and he gets flags now, for very very questionable calls. Ill show some examples of that on the tape. "
Or
this one (from the negatives)
“His size and speed combo lead to huge hits every time he connects with someone, his form tackles are harder than 99% of players kill shots, he doesn’t need to go for those. With proper coaching, this could be corrected. I think this year he is thinking to much about, no penalties, be disciplined, what everyone is saying, his draft stock, and it shows on the field. If a coach can get to him and get him to play the way he can, and be disciplined, tackle with form, try not to hit anyone on the sidelines, he can a special player at the next level.”

That first one was from the very beginning of the year. My point was to show how it changed as the year progressed.
Seems like Jeremy Shockey 2.0. Supremely talented, but a potential cancer. I’m not willing to risk a 1st round pick + locker room chemistry for a position that isn’t even highlighted in our defense anyway.

still not my ideal pick, but one I wouldn’t be against at 32 overall
What do you think of Barron
Grant is old and Sash might not be able to handle coverage responsibilities and Fewell has used a ton of 3 Safety sets even when in Buffalo, I think Barron could play a with the Giants
The safety depth scares me for the Giants. One injury to Rolle or Phillips and this team is in CC Brown situation again.

but the thing is, the giants have maybe the best caoching staff in the league
they got by with UDFA as starting LBs.
if, and thats a Huge IF he passes their interviews, he will shoot up their board.
the giants can teach him how to do that stuff, they can teach him to read a QB, to know which gap is his, and where he needs to be.
If he’s their, it may very well be between him and allen.
the man is just a pure athelete, and can keep up with any TE in the league, a guy that can cover TEs is what the giants need.
his pass rushing ability is irrelivent since we dont blitz that much, but his covering annd tackling skills are superb.
if the giants take him, that means his character can be controlled, and they will make a project outta him, he doesnt even need to be ready year one

LBs need to play with their brains first

Like how the Board fell, Kuechly is the common pick in the first (for good reason), if the board looked as it did in the second round though Andy Reid would get all gushy over the DLinemen left on the board (Crick, Ta’amu) those would probably be the picks also considering the amount of good WR that were still left. The 3rd round has a large pool of players left the the Eagles would Love at that point:
Nick Foles, QB
Nick Toon, WR
Reuben Randle, WR
Coryell Judie, CB
Keenan Robinson, OLB

I could see us using all 4 picks to an advantage
Joe Adams would have to actually, you know, be able to catch the ball, to differentiate himself from the other receivers on our team. His speed is really all we need when we address the WR this year. It would be huge if Sam had enough time to actually put the ball where our WRs can catch it, since obviously, their hands must be the wrong place to put it. Maybe he can just lob it right down their throats.
Anyhoo I think I’m liking Reiff more than Martin but Martin is probably more ready to help with our run blocking, too. Cox is great and Brown? Well hell yeah!

Can never have enough pass rushers. And with the way your first round plays out, he is the best player available in my mind. Good to see someone other than Burfict for a change.
Pairing Curry with Suggs and Kruger could be deadly.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Agreed. I still want Burfict, but this is a solid pick that hasn’t been really mocked to us that realistically could actually happen. Don’t really have a problem with any of the picks. Ideally my draft would be Burfict, Quick, Kelemete. Even though you have Kelemete listed as OT I think we would use him at G since he does have that ability.
On Ed Reed:

Talor does interest me a bit at S and couldn’t find too much about him. How are his ball hawking skills and how does he project as a FS?

I love Taylor. He had good games against 'Bama in both games last year. Including that incredible INT in the first one.
He’s got good range, and while he probably wouldn’t be able to cover a WR one-on-one, he has good vision, good physical attributes (his stock will rise at the combine I think), and is pretty smart. He should be one of those ballhawking safeties at the next level….especially if he learns from Ed Reed.

What's your take on Bernard Pierce?
I am loving the idea of Baltimore taking him in the 3rd round. The guy scored 27 TD’s this season (including 6 against my Terps in UMD)
There aren’t many 6’0" 230 power backs in this draft (if any). Would love him as a back-up for years to come behind Rice.
"Picture Me Rollin"
I have Pierce as the 2nd best powerback behind TRich. I think late 3rd is fair value for him as well.

Why is Jeffery
not going off the board higher in recent mocks. I am wondering if a record breaking number of WRs are going to be selected in the 1st/2nd. Anyway I think the Chargers will take Alshon Jeffrey at 18, Still would be my 2nd choice. Ronnie Hillman needs to be somewhere in there

Got ya.

Really interesting Bucs draft
The Claiborne pick is perfect, of course. Osemele is a huge upgrade over Trueblood. Maybe a bit early for a RT, but I think he’s a slipping first round talent and absolutely worth it at that spot. I like Sean Spence a lot too. It might be a hair early for him, but there is no arguing our need at LB and Spence is the best of what’s left by a good bit. I probably would have taken LaMichael James in that spot, but I would not be upset with Spence in the least.
wanted to give you guys Zach Brown in the 2nd, but STL got there ahead of you, so I looked at your needs and Osemele was BPA regardless haha.
and I felt Spence was tailor made for the Tampa2

Zach Brown would have been excellent
Lavonte David in the third was a near miss too. I think that’s a much better spot for him in the early third than the boilerplate mock him to us in the 2nd, which just seems way too early for my tastes.
David is a fringe 1st round "talent" in terms of instincts and playmaking ability...but I don't know if his
body holds up in the NFL….he’s a LB playing in a very large safety’s body. Same deal with Spence. He’s a high 2nd rounder as well….but those concerns will push both of them down a bit

He's too small for 1st or early second
The third round is perfect for players like that, or late second if a team is drafting need. Just my opinion.
Falcons:
good draft. It would be hard to pass up one of those top three TEs, esp. when some (Bunting for one) feel Orson Charles could be the best of the three. Mike Martin is a pretty good pick too, although I might have leaned toward Boykin.
Overall good job.
nice. I assumed you guys were franchising Grimes, so I hesitated giving a CB and Martin was BPA

Pats fan here,
congrats man. The Brady-Manning rivalry is truly renewed.
I’m skeptical about the Pats going for Barron. There’s risk with him, and I question whether BB will want to go for another S that looks so similar to Merriweather. I’d say Michael Brockers, Peter Konz, or Alshon Jeffery but they’re already taken. I like Wright though.
One thing worth mentioning for all you mock-drafters; Pats will only use one of their 1st and one of their 2nd round picks. The other 1st and 2nd will get traded back/down and the Pats will dangle Brian Hoyer as trade bait for either a player or a mid-round pick.
It is what it is
By the way,
sorry to hear about Beckum. I hope he makes it back. How’s Ballard’s knee?
It is what it is
Ballard tore his meniscus...probably will miss the OTAs and maybe some training camp.
Just makes us getting a TE a little more likely

by BigBlueIntervention on Feb 7, 2012 10:11 AM EST up reply actions
Heh, with the 32nd
you can steal the best TE in the draft before the Colts snag him with 33rd overall. I imagine the Pats will put their 31st out there for teams desperate for a big-time TE that can do it all. TE is the new trend.
It is what it is
Appreciate the kind words. I wasn't mocking trades (except RGIII) but yeah, that's probably the case with your 1st rounders.
I figured BB liked Meriweather except for his attitude. Barron is a smarter, higher character Meriweather.

I'm not so sure,
think he’d rather aim for Markelle Martin, George Iloka, or Harrison Smith somewhere in the 2nd/3rd rounds. Pats got to upgrade their WR corps badly. There’s not going to really be anyone there after Welker who’s not getting younger, and Welker himself is truly a slot-receiver. Branch is looking worn out, the Ocho experiment failed, and after that it’s a bunch of big no-names who haven’t shown much.
It is what it is
I hear you. And yessir, which is why I gave you guys Kendall Wright

Great Game!
but i think the Pats would Draft sanu if avalable (Wont be cuz i have the weirdest feeling that his combine will make him the 2nd WR taken)
NE has become a pipeline to RU.

Denver
Really would be against the idea of drafting a no. 2 WR in the 1st round. I dont think he would improve the starting roster a great deal.
If Dontari Poe falls that far that would be a nice pick up.
Polk I am still not quite sure on. Does he enough gym/fitness work? Does he find the holes well enough? Was he limited by a poor O line. In the 3rd though wouldnt be too upset with that although would prefer Boykin in that spot with that board.

I went with the thinking that a Thomas-Jeffrey-Decker combo would be the best in the West...and having a big possession
guy would be a massive boon for Tebow. Jeffrey can use his body and his height to adjust to Tebow throwing on the run. Polk I actually have as a 2nd round talent that fell due to lack of RB need. He’s got a nice balance of power and speed, with moderate burst and could be a good complement to McGahee.

I'm not a Jeffrey fan.
Kinda has too much size – you know, around the middle. I’ve also seen rumblings work ethic is a question mark. It’s possible in your scenario, he’s BPA but I’m just not on board. Given your first 24 picks, I’d much sooner go Dwayne Allen (Steve disagrees!) or Chase Minnifield. If I had to take a WR, I kinda like the speed of Kendall Wright. Poe would be great value in the 2nd as, i think would Polk in the 3rd.
There are no apostrophes in plurals.
A lot is two words. Allot can be one word but it has another meaning.
The only time you really want to use "myself" is when you are the recipient of your own action. Usually you're better off using "me."
Your is not the correct contraction of you are. The word you're looking for is you're.
It's anyway, not anyways.
But if you only remember one thing...

Browns Picks:
Blackmon- A
Glenn- C (we have bigger needs this early in the draft and I don’t think Glenn is BPA here)
Burfict- D (we need OLB or DE not ILB)
Johnson- C- (we have bigger needs this early in the draft)
I think Burfict could play SAM, and I had Glenn's value in the 20's, so I thought he was solid value. Who would you have taken instead?

Cards
Can’t nitpick, only wish you would do 4 rounds so I could see one more Cards pick.
I’ve resigned myself to them taking Adams in the first. I really don’t know how to feel about that.
Massaquoi, have any write-ups on him? Not really familiar.
Massaquoi I can only admit to watching him in one game, but he looked pretty good. Decent size/speed combo, and actually
had a nice swim move that I saw him use once or twice. I think he can be successful in the 3-4 as a pass rusher.

Not liking it for the Jets
I’d surely grab Richardson if he’s there, but then that leaves OLB, and Chandler Jones doesn’t have the burst or speed to become a 3-4 OLB. Not to mention I think there are plenty of decent QBs later in the draft like Russell Wilson or cousins, so I feel like drafting Weeden in the third is a waste of a pick. I’d much rather hit S if hadn’t done so, with Winston Guy Jr. or perhaps Harrison Smith.
That's fair enough. I think of Chandler Jones as Cameron Wake-esque. Not a perfect fit for the 3-4
but natural pass rushing talent. No great burst, but has enough power and agile enough to execute stunts and a few pass rushing moves to be good enough to be a force.

Jaguars
Good mock draft for us, but we need a WR. If we go WR in the later rounds, then I have no faith in Gene Smith to make Gabbert an elite talent.
you do realize Gene likely picks up a big talent at WR in Free Agency

you do realize that there is talent on the roster already and not going WR in the early rounds is actually very real possibility if one of two big FAs can be brought in.....

Seahawks
Don’t like this draft for the Seahawks – doesn’t really address the primary need at all. Carroll stated a desire to improve front 7 speed in his end of year presser. Last year he said he wanted to beef up the oline and spent the first 2 picks on an RT and RG, so he’s not necessarily just blowing smoke.
Really don’t like Floyd b/c he’s not BPA and WR isn’t one of the more pressing needs – we have a #1 in Sidney Rice and I don’t think you take a #2 this early with so many other holes. Don’t like Tannehill b/c he’s not the “point guard” qb Carroll wants – he puts the ball in risky places too often and R2 is QBOTF land. Though I do like James as a back, I think they’d want to find another RB with a similar style to Lynch as a true backup and use Washington as the CoP guy. I’d look for a guy like Polk or Martin here or Ganaway from Baylor in the later rounds.
Given this board (and no trades, though they could certainly trade down in R1 for later picks), I’d expect them to pick something like:
1.12) Ingram DE
2.11) Spence WLB
3.12) Osweiler/Cousins QB
Jags = B+
1. Coples = A
2. Gilmore = A-
3. Potter = C, rather have Nick Toon, Rueben Randle or even Cam Johnson, yes a second defensive end.

Randle is way overrated and I would hope he is not the 3rd round pick. He disappeared against the better defensive talent(Alabama)

we need to draft a receiver in one of the first three rounds. I like the three guys we got, but the only way I’d take that is if we pick up two very good WRs in FA and I don’t think that is very likely. However, these three players fill positions of need and would improve our team remarkably. It would be nice to see Gene add some more defensive talent so we can be set there for good.
