***The Official 2012 NFL Draft Thread***

[TE]

Finally someone takes Russel Wilson.

[benefactor]

Seattle with the Africa ball QB pick.

[shyne]

Sigh...

They need a GOOD slot receiver so badly. The also need a replacement at TE badly as well.

Texans hardly ever use the slot WR, they use tight ends. They should just move Casey back to TE, and get them a veteren FB.

[T Park]

Yeah I know Johnson a slot/deep wide out, but it just seems like they need an intermediate wide out who can get those 7 yards on 3rd and long.

I would've traded Tate for a stud wide out or top pick my self, but I've been told I'm crazy for that.

[T Park]

Seattle with the Africa ball QB pick.

As Mayock said another Seneca Wallace?

Maybe?

Dunno

[shyne]

Texans take Brandon Brooks, their running a pipeline out of the U

* scratch that its Miami of Ohio

[T Park]

Brooks = Okoye on offense.

Meh.

[T Park]

Texans take Brandon Brooks, their running a pipeline out of the U

Miami of Ohio bro.

[shyne]

Rick Smith is for sure drafting this class, I dont even know if Kubiak is there havent heard or seen him since draft started.

[Kai]

Hmm, wait and see approach it is :lol

[benefactor]

Texans definitely drafting on upside. Brooks is a monster though. Sub 5.00 40yd dash and 350lbs? Dude's gonna mow people down in the ZBS.

[Kai]

maybe he didn't get invited to the combine because scouts didn't want this to happen :lol

QiUcbhE8fTQ

[shyne]

Kiper just said he thought he would go in second round. Very athletic for being so big.

[T Park]

I repeat. the Amobi Okoye of offense.

We shall see though. They know their o-lines

[Spurtacus]

Finally my boys are back on the clock. Probably going defense here but TE is a possibility.

[T Park]

Cowboys up next.

Defensive line?

[T Park]

damn hope that scout is OK..

[shyne]

Jerry needs to get a running back thats not made of glass.

[T Park]

Agree with Mayock, Crawford is a stud.

Good get by the Cowboys.

[T Park]

Jerry needs to get a running back thats not made of glass.

Derrick Ward from the Texans is a FA....

[Spurtacus]

meh on Crawford. DE wasn't really a big need with Spears, Hatcher, Lissmore, and Coleman. Need safety and DT depth.

[dirk4mvp]

nf:lol = f:lolck:lold

[Spurtacus]

I wish ESPN would stop riding Wilson. Tired of hearing about this guy.

[Old Man Kidd]

DoK what u think about the cardinals gettin my MF'IN NIGGA JAMELL FLEMING!!!

[T Park]

I wish ESPN would stop riding Wilson. Tired of hearing about this guy.


NFL Network waaaayyyy better.

[Spurtacus]

NFL Network waaaayyyy better.

Wish I had it. I have Time Warner right now.

[shyne]

My fiancee is getting me Direct TV, and NFL Sunday Ticket as one of my wedding presents, tired of the NFL Networkless Time Warner Cable.

[Spurtacus]

No Longhorns drafted in the first three rounds. First time since 2000. :depressed

[Goran Dragic]

No Longhorns drafted in the first three rounds. First time since 2000. :depressed
Maybe Mack Brownturdfaggit will stop coddling all his players now.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I scored some Klonopin, Percocet, and some bunk coke. This night might make a rebound after all

[LakerHater]

Wish I had it. I have Time Warner right now.
U can watch it on NFL.com!

[Spurtacus]

U can watch it on NFL.com!

Doh. I work all day tomorrow so the laptop will be streaming coverage for me. :tu

[LnGrrrR]

After such a badass first round, NE was reaching like crazy today. Don't get it. Yesterday they buck the trend of trading down by trading up twice. Today they bunk their trend of always going for value and draft 5-7th round guys way too early.

At least they did the right thing in Round 1. Don't know why they took that safety so early... someone in the organization must have really liked him.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I want Tommy Streeter

[DeadlyDynasty]

Good pick by the fins...Miller is a beast

[shyne]

Alright Texans, you got your two O linemen. Go get somemore playmakers now.

[DeadlyDynasty]

The U is starting to fly off the board

[DeadlyDynasty]

Bills fans are losing their shit on BZ cause the Skins took Cousins:lol

[djohn2oo8]

LOL Taking a SECOND QB. What must Grossman feel like right now?

[DeadlyDynasty]

Redskins are so dumb...you'd think after trading everything they had to get RG3 they would maximize their picks. They're going to have RG3, Cousins, and a bunch of UDFAs

[DeadlyDynasty]

I like the Nigel Bradham pick by Buffalo. They've addressed 3 of their 5 needs now: OLB, CB, LT. Still need a WR (lol not Graham) and a young QB

[DeadlyDynasty]

how the hell is Massie still on the board? Ronnell Lewis is surprising too

[shyne]

how the hell is Massie still on the board? Ronnell Lewis is surprising too

I still dont understand why nobody is taking a chance on Travis Lewis, dude is a straight beast. I know he had a broken foot last year, but is their anything else i'm missing?

[djohn2oo8]

I want Streeter or Nick Toon.

[JMarkJohns]

Fuck yeah, Massie! Don't know how he fell, or how the Cardinals could get him without trading up, but he's a great get this late.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Fuck yeah, Massie! Don't know how he fell, or how the Cardinals could get him without trading up, but he's a great get this late.

yup:tu

[JMarkJohns]

I would love it if AZ trades their 5th, later 6th and future 6th to move up for G Brandon Washington.

[shyne]

Fuck I liked Jarius Wright for Texans.

[shyne]

fuck you Rick Smith

[djohn2oo8]

Fucking FAIL!!!

[shyne]

and there goes Toon right after

[djohn2oo8]

Wade better make this next pick.

[shyne]

I dont have a big problem with the Martin pick, I just feel like Rick is always reaching for guys.

[djohn2oo8]

Jared Crick - DT

[shyne]

There is a Wade pick, I love it! Jared Crick. We have more country white boys on D than anyone I can remember

[DeadlyDynasty]

I actually love the Ron Brooks pick. He was overshadowed by Honeybadger and Claiborne in that secondary, but he's the fastest CB in the draft, and had the highest vert too. Good blitzer off the edge too

[djohn2oo8]

Liking our draft so far. Just wish we would've taken a different reciever after Posey.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Streeter still on the board...please fall to Buffalo. We're one tall WR away from seriously competing for the playoffs

[DeadlyDynasty]

Minny's snatchin' up those Arkansas wideouts

[LnGrrrR]

Nvm, mixed up my trades :D

[shyne]

Will Bobby McNair take a flyer on Vontaze Burfict lol

[DeadlyDynasty]

Jets or Raiders will probably try Burfict

[DeadlyDynasty]

Good pick with Carder!

[DeadlyDynasty]

but still no WR...

[djohn2oo8]

With our next pick, we should draft James Hanna and have him as the backup TE.

[shyne]

With our next pick, we should draft James Hanna and have him as the backup TE.

I'd rather they move Casey back to TE, hes a matchup nightmare and I think he would be better utilized as a pass catcher.

[DeadlyDynasty]

The Tank Carder and Zebrie Sanders picks were fucking awesome...the Brooks one was clutch too.

If not for our 3rd-round gaffe this would be our best draft in 10 years (on paper, at least)

[DeadlyDynasty]

"Rokevious Watkins"

:lmaowtf black people

[SpursRock20]

My Vikings have drafted 2 USC players, 2 ND players, and 2 Arkansas players. Did they go to only 3 different pro days?

[Kai]

Texans will take the Aggie kicker Bullock either this round or next I bet.

[shyne]

Texans will take the Aggie kicker Bullock either this round or next I bet.

Ya I think so too

[djohn2oo8]

I wouldn't be opposed to another WR. Marvin McNutt?

[shyne]

Kubs had to get his aggie

[Kai]

:lol

[JMarkJohns]

If available, Cards need to take Criner.

[Goran Dragic]

lol Vontaze Burfict


Wonder if he'll even get drafted

[Axe Murderer]

I am the mother fucking head of state, bitch!

[Goran Dragic]

What I stand for.....



CHANGE NIGGA!

[DeadlyDynasty]

If Burfict is lucky he'll end up at Baltimore with the 28th pick of this round. Not a better situation for him to be in. If the vets round him into shape and get his head straight then it'll be scary

[LnGrrrR]

So far, the Pats have turned a second rnd pick into a third, a sixth, and 2 sevenths... BB is making up for the first round :lol

[Goran Dragic]

Please draft Streeter New England

[Goran Dragic]

Actually Streeter or Brewster

[benefactor]

Wow...Smith and Kubiak love the B1G.

Good draft overall. I would have preferred a couple of names you know at receiver but the ones they got are interesting and defensive picks and the OL depth more than make up for it. I think Brooks and Jones can help out right away on the line. Crick is a solid value with that last 4th and the Aggie kicker is a Groza Award winner, so he's a good PK prospect with that 5th.

[ginobili's bald spot]

As an Ohio State fan I can only say........




Nate Ebner!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?! wtffffffff

[Goran Dragic]

As an Ohio State fan I can only say........




Nate Ebner!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?! wtffffffff
New England likes safeties who can't cover or tackle, I'm guessing Ebner fits that mold?

[Kai]

Texans new kicker :lmao

[ginobili's bald spot]

He's a safety who never played on a team without any good safeties. I don't think he was ever even in the two deep in his entire career. He was strictly a special teams player. Shocking pick imo.

[shyne]

Looks like he can play guard too.

[Goran Dragic]

Well then that actually makes sense if he was a good special teams player. Being productive on special teams is enough to have a roster spot with New England (Matthew Slater and Tracy White wouldn't be in the NFL if Belichick didn't value their :cryveteran savvy:cry on special teams)

[DeadlyDynasty]

^
Tavon Wilson was a shock too...both were projected UDFAs. Still, they made their bones in the 1st round.

Buffalo was killing it today till the 6th rd. Taking a 27 y/o OG over Streeter? Stupid fucks

[ginobili's bald spot]

Well then that actually makes sense if he was a good special teams player. Being productive on special teams is enough to have a roster spot with New England (Matthew Slater and Tracy White wouldn't be in the NFL if Belichick didn't value their :cryveteran savvy:cry on special teams)

They could have just signed him as an UDFA. I know Belichick is a genius but :lol

[Goran Dragic]

They could have just signed him as an UDFA. I know Belichick is a genius but :lol
Oh I'm not saying I agree with it, I'm just saying it makes more sense that he'd reach on a player who's good on ST. New England's picks have been horrible since the 1st round.

[LnGrrrR]

He's a safety who never played on a team without any good safeties. I don't think he was ever even in the two deep in his entire career. He was strictly a special teams player. Shocking pick imo.

Could be that BB just wants him for special teams. *shrug* Who knows?

[ginobili's bald spot]

Am I the only one stupid enough to take a 7th round flyer on Burfict? I realize he's not exactly SA Spurs level classy, but still dude has potential.

[Goran Dragic]

Yeah at this point Burfict offers more reward than any other player left.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Dennard was a GREAT value pick this late. Can't believe he's dropped so low

[Goran Dragic]

Agreed. He'll get plenty of snaps this year given how many CBs on New England get injured every year.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Would be nice if Dwight Jones or Jeff Fuller fell to us at 251. We had a great day till the 6th round. Finish strong, Buffalo.

[Goran Dragic]

New England really loves undersized midget receivers

[DeadlyDynasty]

Can't believe nobody's snatched up Marcus Fortson yet. There's gonna be some good UDFAs out there, imo

[DeadlyDynasty]

Deangelo Peterson still available too

[JMarkJohns]

I'm actually very happy with the Cardinals' draft. Three linemen, including two likely immediate rotation players, both with 2nd-round measurables and upside, and a high impact wide receiver. I like Fleming as a converted FS where he can play with the field in front of him.

One gripe is they should have taken Burfict at 177. For as much as I bag on him, the local college product one mocked as a top-20 pick who plays a position of need would have made a lot of sense. Probably not worth the headache, but as a special teams player and situational ILB, I'm not sure there's a better value upside at the position that the Cardinals could have had.

[DeadlyDynasty]

A fucking kicker?

[DeadlyDynasty]

Actually, that PK we drafted had 36 touchbacks last year...holy shit that's beast...guess they didn't wanna compete for him on the open market.

As far as UDFAs, I want Fortson, Jones, and Peterson

[DeadlyDynasty]

Fuck, Miami got Gray...

[DeadlyDynasty]

Kellen Moore to the Lions.

[Spurtacus]

Was hoping the Cowboys would take a chance with Case Keenum in the 7th. He's probaby better than Stephen McGee. Could try to develop him for a few years behind Romo.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Bills take FSU Punter Powell? Wtf? Moorman's a beast, we need WR's, you assholes...not punters

[DeadlyDynasty]

Here's an UDFA tracker for those interested: http://www.nflroughdraft.com/node/157

Texans grab Case Keenum
Good UDFA pickup. Better than Leinart or the old guys they picked late last year. Decent prospect for a #3 behind Yates.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Buffalo grabbed Richmond QB Aaron Corp...used to be a USC backup.

[Blake]

Maybe Mack Brownturdfaggit will stop coddling all his players now.

Doubtful, imo

[Blake]

Did jacksonville really draft a punter in the third round?

How do some of these gms have jobs.

[Goran Dragic]

Yes, Forston is THAT nigga

[Goran Dragic]

:lmao:lmao the Bengals picked Burfict up

[JoeTait75]

Or Reiff, forgot about him. :lol Browns ignoring their terrible OL

Eh. Cleveland's OL isn't terrible. They have two first-round picks on the OL already, both of whom are good players (JT is outstanding). They're a decent RT away from having a pretty good unit.

They really need a QB. McCoy is pretty much a white Charlie Batch, tbh. Career backup thrust into a starting role early by a team with a lack of other viable options. No amount of "weapons" or first-round OL make him anything else.

Weeden's age doesn't bother me. He isn't a RB. If he's good and stays healthy he still play ten years. I'm not even saying he will be good, just that his age isn't an issue, imo. If he can play, he can play. If he can't, he can't. That's it.

Weeden actually bears a somewhat striking resemblance to the doughy, weak-chinned Randy Lerner. I frankly never envisioned the Browns drafting a guy who looks like their owner, least of all in the first round. (Randy might have been driving the bus on this pick too, imo.)

[Blake]

Cleveland buying into the big xii qb hype yet again.

Although I like Weeden's chances in the pros better than Colt's, it's still probably not going to lead to a Super Bowl any time soon.

many sub .500 years to come for the Browns, imo

[DeadlyDynasty]

Bills have 8/9 draft picks signed...the new CBA kicks ass:smokin

Only one not signed is our 3rd round POS TJ Graham--and I couldn't care less if he signs.
