Best 1rst round since 83?
 

Charlie Casserly says this may be the best first round since 1983 when Dan Marino and Darrell Green were drafted. He includes some thoughts on Bradford, and that McCoy may be catching up to Clausen.

:laughing- Yeah..I'm not sure exactly what he disagrees with. Casserly is in touch with a lot of people around the NFL who will be deciding who goes where during the draft. It sounds like the top 2 rated QB's in the draft won't work out at the combine. I find it interesting that he says McCoy might catch up to Clausen. Should be interesting to see who rises and who falls during the combine.

Cmon 53, admit it, you're just a football geek and would be excited if it was the worst draft ever too!

Casserly doesn't know jack. I'll take the wisdom of some armchair GM on an internet message board any day over him.

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

Catch up to Clausen, I thought McCoy was already ahead?!

How dare the national media not just assume that I'm right ;)

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

This is the NFL hype machine building up the draft. Ever year I hear it is as good as the class of 83. Though I do agree CC did have some nice inputs.

I think Bradford will be off the board come pick number 4.

lol we're all armchair GM's, no biggie

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

Don't they know you don't have to amp up the draft we will watch it anyway.

Actually I'm a real, freelance GM. I have zero experience in an NFL personnel operation but I'm open to any job offers.

I disagree with what the thread title question is, is this the "Best 1rst round since 83?" No it is not the best first round since 83

2004 was much better than this

Mike Mayock on top OT's and what Redskins should do at #4.

Pretty good, dead on reasoning.

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

There won't be 6 QBs drafted in this first round.

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

Interesting how Mayock only said Bradford, not even mentioning Clausen.

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
 

OK guys there already been a better clase since 83 if we count achievments (superbowls won) and depth and ot's the 2004 draft I don't know how many HOF will come out from this class but as of right now we got multiple Probowls and Superbowl winners in it.

Look at some of the names fron that class

[B][U]1st Round[/U][/B]
Eli Manning
Ben Roethlisberger
Philip Rivers
Larry Fitzgerald
Dunta Robinson
Jonathan Vilma
Tommie Harris
Shawn Andrews
Will Smith
Vince Wilkfork
Marcus Tubbs
Steven Jackson
Ahmad Carroll
Chris Gamble

[U][B]2nd Round[/B][/U]
Karlos Dansby
Chris Snee
Igor Olshansky
Bob Sanders

[B][U]3rd Round[/U][/B]
Darnell Dockett
Nate Keading
Chris Cooley
Matt Schaub

[B][U]4th Round[/U][/B]
Shaun Phillips
Jared Allen

I can count at least 4 if not 5 future HOF in that list and a lot in the Hall of Very good as Peter King calls it.

Re: Best 1rst round since 83?
