[IE]

Two NFC clubs are reportedly interested in moving up in Round Two.

The Falcons (No. 42) and Seahawks (No. 63) would like to vault into the opening stages of the second round, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports.

The Falcons have seven picks left ? one in Rounds Two through Six and two in Round Seven. All can be traded.

The Seahawks, meanwhile, have 11 selections, including four compensatory picks that cannot be dealt. Seattle has three fourth-rounders, including two that can be moved, and it has at least one selection in all six remaining rounds.



NFL Media, like ESPN, reports the Steelers are another club interested in making a move up in Round Two. Pittsburgh, which holds the 24th pick in the second round (No. 56), has one tradeable choice in each of the next six rounds.

Maybe in a different era, but now the NFL is a passing league....

Think we'll see o-linemen, receivers, d-line, corners & safety's come off the board with an occasional running back, & QB thrown in for good measure....

Btw, gw, I think the Raven made a good choice yesterday, considering where they drafted....

I`m just sayin theres some serious quality left on the board at the position...some of the guys still left have the skills to become stars...

I`d have taken the more sure thing in jaelen strong(somebody`s gonna a get a bargain there)........perriman has hands like bricks and need s a ton of work....if everything goes well,maybe by 2016/2017...he`s not ready now...what worries me most is you can`t teach instincts....

maxx williams on the other hand is going to to great things here...he`s only 21....so lucky he fell to us...hole filled...

here comes dallas to grab a rb...

edit:they went Gregory...I hope the guy succeeds...he seems sincerely contrite...

Gregory is a fuck up....Besides 2 failed drug tests, he was a no show for a few interviews he had scheduled with teams....It is easy to say he let his family down etc, etc., etc
....Action speaks louder than words....

Article from ProFootball Talk....

On Wednesday, NFL Media tiptoed around it. On Friday night, ESPN jumped right in.

After the Cowboys made defensive end Randy Gregory the 60th pick in the 2015 draft, Ed Werder of ESPN said that ?some people in the league think there are mental health issues? with Gregory.

The disclosure comes not long after Gregory said, while waiting to be drafted, that he has ?some issues I?m taking care of, and those I think are up in the air.?

NFL Media previously reported that there is ?concern about Gregory?s ability to handle the mental rigors of professional football.?

Mental health problems routinely are stigmatized by those who have never experienced them. If Gregory truly has such issues, we wish him the best as he attempts to get those issues resolved.

I for one think Gregory will be all right, unless he is a supreme fuck up Dallas will be able to handle his shit. They have handled Dez quite well and he is a total fuck up, but I can honestly say he's one of the best receivers in the league right now. Ever heard of David Wells? Well, he's a bad ass and he has helped Dez and PacMan Jones in the past. I bet they have him work with Gregory too. The first pick they made was brilliant, I really liked the Gregory pick as well. However, I wasn't a fan of the Chaz pick because they need to fill some holes on defense and there was a lot of defensive talent on the board. I would give them a B so far in this draft.

As for the Giants, I was not a a fan of picking Flowers that high, WTF is up with that? I did like your second pick with Collins though. Odighizuwa was an excellent pick as well. Grade B so far.

So far I like the Giants picks....They needed an o-lineman & got a guy with huge potential & their 2nd rated o-lineman on the board....We'll see in a few years if it was a good pick....No opinion on Dallas picks & am glad that the Giants didn't pick Gregory....They have been burnt too often by fuck-ups & don't want to waste a pick on a possibility....

Yep, they got a good thing going so far. I'm dropping my draft grade to a C with that latest pick of Wilson for the Cowboys. WTF are they thinking with so much talent left on the board? IMHO, there were better players available than Wilson to pick up. I mean I like they are working on Defense, but this guy is just OK and has some question marks. They have a definite need at the safety position. I'm glad they haven't went RB though, everybody wants them to pick a RB, but they really have lots of depth at the position.
