Re: Draft talk round 1

What a depressing final 2 picks those were.

Travis Frederick is going to be a great NFL player (I'm also a Badger, so I may be biased), and then Elam.

Yuck.

I knew none of the top safeties would last. Still good value out there for tomorrow.

Poor Geno Smith. Came all the way to NYC only to get his ego thumped, now he's going home with his tail between his legs. Told Suzy Kolber he wouldn't be coming back tomorrow.

He needs to learn how to face the media after a disappointing situation.

saying he wont come back may further hurt when he is picked....certainly shows poor sportsmanship

Re: Draft talk round 1

I still think Tayvon Austin was a bad pick.

Just a tiny little man. A slot receiver in the top 10 is a bad pick IMO.

Maybe if you spelled his name right it would be a good pick.

Maybe. But I really don't think it would make any difference.

Re: Draft talk round 1

Are 2nd round picks 5 minutes each or 7 minutes each?

Re: Draft talk round 1

Well I was shocked that:
- Miami traded all the way up to #3 to get Dion Jordan when they have Wake, Oderrick, and Vernon.

- EJ Manuel was the first QB taken

- Miami gave up so little to move up, yet New England got so much to move from the very end of round 1 to round 2.

- Manti and Geno didn't go in the first round

- Minnesota wanted Cordarrelle Patterson over Manti

- Elam still went in round 1 (lots of talk that he'd fall to round 2)

- Kyle Long going in round 1

- Shariff Floyd a top 3 pick fell all the way to Minnesota.

- Eifert went to..The Bengals?? (I guess they aren't high on Gresham or Orson Charles)

- The 49ers traded up to get...Eric Reid, whose stock was supposed to of been awful lately (like 3rd round awful)

-The Jets picked Sheldon Richardson, a projected 3-4 DE, and already have two other studs there with Muhammed Wilkerson and Quinton Coples...smh

- Saints going with Vaccarro when they have Jenkins and Harper; must expect him to play SS

- The Colts taking Werner was a bit surprising; guess they think he can play OLB

- The cowboys panicing and picking the wisconsin C. God that's another awful pick.

Other observations and notes I had:

I liked the Raiders, Rams, Ravens, Panthers and Vikings picks.

I hated the Dolphins, Jets, Lions, Bills, and Cowboys picks (well, I like Dallas's pick in a good job at sucking pick)

Did Bjoern Werner give his girlfriend a hickey or something when he was picked?!?

I was right about there only being 1 QB and No RB's in the first round.

I was wrong about Elam going AFTER Cyprien. I was also wrong about 25 picks in my mock.

The 7 picks I had correct were (KC Fisher, Jax Joeckel, Arizona Cooper, Tennessee Warmack, Carolina Louteleli, Green Bay Datone Jones, Denver Sly Williams)

Lots of talent on the board for us to consider for tomorrow:
- Arthur Brown LB
-Keenan Allen WR
- Cyprien S
- Swearinger FS
- Hankins DT
- Jesse Williams NT
- Ertz TE
- John Jenkins NT
- DaMontre Moore OLB
- Gavin Escobar TE
- Manti Te'o LB
- Khaseem Greene LB
- Kawann Short DE
- Logan Ryan CB
- Johnathan Banks CB
- Darius Slay CB
- Robert Woods WR
- Alex Okafor OLB
- Hunter WR
- Travis Kelce TE
- Menelik Watson RT
- Jamar Taylor CB
- Poyer CB
- Patton WR
- Blidi Wreh-Wilson CB
- Minter LB
- Barrett Jones OL
- Da'Rick Rogers WR
- Armstead OT
- Corey Lemonier OLB
- Bailey WR
- Hunt DE
- Johnathan Franklin RB
- Shamarko Thomas S
- Bennie Logan DT
- David Amerson CB
- Schwenke C
- Terrance Williams WR
- Ellington RB
- Alford CB
- Randle RB
- Jordan Mills OT
- Nico Johnson LB
- Brandon Jenkins OLB
- Brandon Williams NT

lots and lots of talent. And I didn't even mention Phillip Thomas, Bacarri Rambo or the Honey Badger.

Re: Draft talk round 1

Lol I cant believe the Cowboys reached like that. I think they expected guys they wanted (K Long, Pugh, Reid, Sylvester Williams) to still be there. I dont think they anticipated SF to move up to take Reid.
