2012 NFL Draft Day 3

[JoeRedskin]

Also, we trade down two spots in the 3rd and get a 7th.
we trade down 18 in the 4th and get a 6th.

I guess it's the number of slots as opposed to the round, but it just seems like the 3rd round trade should have netted more. - Not objecting, just think it's odd.

BTW - I am all about adding picks. It's a pick f'ing crapshoot so just keep adding rolls of the dice. It's not like we are trading out of the rounds all together so for a slight decrease in percentages, we get an extra roll. I really like how this FO handles the draft - just from a pick accumulation basis.

I agree. I questioned the lack of picks this year. but I'm pleased with the strategy.

I guess different circumstances. Sometimes you overpay a little to make sure the deal gets done. With certain guys still on the draft board it may take a little more to convince a team to trade back. Who knows?

If RG3 can't beat out a 4th round pick, even one as talented as Cousins, he doesn't deserve to start.

The Panthers just traded a 6th this year and a 3rd next year for a 4th rounder and picked Adams who has had a stroke? The kid looks like a player but he could be out of football just as fast, that is a gamble.

I dont understand why every team doesnt trade back like the 49ers just did as often as they can. They moved up, and got an extra pick. I'm sorry, whats the downside?

I would love to see them take Asa Jackson

There goes the best TE available Mr. Charles of GA

Ok 119 is coming...... Blair Walsh or Drew Butler?

George Iloka is too talented for us to pass up.
And whats the deal with Dennard, why has he slipped so far? Should we draft him?

Dennard got abused at the bowl game in man to man, once a possible 2nd round prospect is in a free fall. He also got arrested a week ago

Height 5-10 said and durability concerns. I read that he would be great as an inside nickel back.
