draft day chat....

[AR182]

i just heard on either espn or the nfl network (i can't remember which because i'm constanly changing channels...lol) that the rams will take chris long. this leaves atlanta with the choice between dorsey or ryan.....the owner wants ryan but the new gm wants dorsey. if atlanta chooses dorsey then kc's pick will be huge because the ravens are hot for ryan...

it will be interesting today to see if a veteran receiver will be traded today because there are a few teams that desperately one...

also will be intersting in seeing if my giants trade shockey...i hope so because i never cared for his attitude...

hopefully there are some draft nuts like me on the forum so we can have an on-going dialogue during the draft....

jerry jones and pacman jones what a perfect arrangement...:0corn

 

[kegray1]

Congrats to ESPN for yet another DUMB idea.
WHERE THE HELL IS THE DRAFT????
What is this 3pm BS??? You lower the time to 10 minutes to make it more watchable then bump the time back.

IDIOTS!!!!!!!

i would think that the nfl calls the shots for scheduling the draft...

My Steelers need about 15 picks, but only have 6. Holes everywhere IMO, and that schedule looks brutal. Here's to going 8-8!!

My Bears Mock draft

1-14 Jeff Otah- OT Pitt

2-44 Jamaal Charles- RB Texas

3-70 Oneil Cousins- OG UTEP

3-90 Red Bryant- DT Texas A&M

4-110 Barry Richardson- OT Clemson

5-142 Keenan Burton- WR Kentucky

6-175 Dennis Dixon- QB Oregon

7- 222 Andrew Bain- OG Miami

7-243 Ryan Mundy- S West Virginia

7- 247 Paul Smith- QB Tulsa

7- 248 BenJarvis Green-Ellis- RB Ole Miss

 

[AR182]

the nfl network seems to think that atl. will choose ryan & the raiders will take mcfadden. if that's the case then kc will luck out with a chance to take dorsey at #5...& imo that's a great pick...

 

[gardenweasel]

one of my favorite days of the year....i`m hoping ryan falls to the ravens,but,karma indicates that the ravens and quarterbacks(good ones,anyway)are like oil and water.....

my guess is that they grab ryan clady to replace ogden...

ar....did i hear correctly that arizona is putting anquan bolden on the market?....why?...he`s a bit of a beast,isn`t he?....

i would think he`d be very dangerous on a team with an established,veteran passing game...

since there are only 2 rounds today i'll only make the 2 picks:

1-otah ot-pitt(even though i would prefer williams)

2-baker-ot-sc (might need to trade up a bit to grab him)

this would be a perfect day for the bears and would significantly improve the line immediately (otah-baker-tait could play either tackle position, let the 2 best earn their spots)

then move into sunday where the bears can take rb-wr-dt in rounds 3 + 3 + 4 and maybe pick up zibokoski-woodson/dixon in rounds 5 + 6

gw...

the nfl network is reporting that the ravens are trying very hard to trade up to the #2 pick so they can beat atlanta to ryan....

the cards are denying that they will trade bolden..but who knows...:shrug:

i agree with you that the bears would be much improved if they can accomplish what you posted...& btw the war room rates williams higher than jake long...btw, they rate clady the highest tackle in the draft...

great topic Mr. Al,

I hope my steelers get a good OT as they need one badly.

Here is my projection of top 5

1. miami- Long OT (we all know that already) lol

2. St.L- Long DE

3. ATL- Ryan QB

4. Oak- Dorsey DT

5. KC- Gholston DE


I would love it if my steelers land the OT from boston college (Cherilus??)

dr. love...

hope things are going well....

it seems that oak. will take mcfadden..& kc is very weak on the offensive line so i think that's where they will go...

 

[THE KOD]

One of my favorite days of the year watching the draft.

I have NFL central all set up. I mark them off as they are selected so I can watch who drops.

One hour until prime time.

The wife knows not to talk to me while the draft is on.

This wont be done until midnight:shrug:

no fights tonight......a perfect storm...

 

[ELVIS]

i can tell that chris long is going to rams already...

he has been on the cell and he has that look that players do after they are told they are the pick.
he is probably thinking " thank God i am not going to the shit hole in oakland"..............

i think you're right...

espn is reporting that the rams want balt's picks in rounds 1,2,& 4 to move up...& of course the ravens refused..

 

[AR182]

nfl network is reporting that the saints are trying to move up to either 4 or 5 to take dorsey..that would be a perfect pick for them for a few reasons...
