2010 NFL Draft Thread

[Auggie]

Waddya know... Cleveland is trying to arrange a deal to move up to first. Holmgren covets Sam Bradford.

On edit: First round, Bradford goes to St. Louis. So much for that.

[JonLP24]

1. I hope Arizona

drafts Kyle Wilson out of Boise St. Either him or Jerry Hughes out of TCU.

[Upton]

5. I've seen at least one mock draft

that has Wilson going to the 49ers..

[Auggie]

7. I've seen it too

Their biggest need is the O-line IMO, but Baalke said today he'll take the best player available. That might even be Dez Bryant.

[Upton]

8. I saw that on Bryant

doesn't make sense...we just got Crabtree...I've also seen the Clauson rumors, but I'm with you, we need to bolster the OL.

[JonLP24]

11. There is not a mock draft out there

(that I know of) that has Arizona taking Kyle Wilson. Reason why I want him is because on the other side of Rodgers-Cromartie, they don't have anybody. They desperately need somebody to cover the other side of the field and push Bryant McFadden to NB.

[Auggie]

2. Suh sentenced to the Lions

I wish them all well -- really

[MadBadger]

3. I actually really liked what Detroit did this offseason

I think they will be better this year. Its not like he went to the raiders

[MadBadger]

4. DRAFT A LINEMAN!!!

[JonLP24]

6. They did

Just not the expected.., Okung. They got Trent Williams OT, U of Oklahoma. instead.

[TZ]

10. I'm thinking MadBadger meant Offensive Lineman

Thats what the Skins need badly. I'm very very pleased with the choice! :)

[JonLP24]

12. That's what I meant also

Okung is an offensive lineman out of Oklahoma St who was the expected pick for Washington.

[TZ]

18. Ah okay

I haven't paid terrific attention to specifics- I was just hoping the Skins would get an O-line man. For some reason I had heard Okung but thought he was a DE.

[a la izquierda]

13. He's a good kid, you'll be happy with your team's

selection.

[MadBadger]

57. I am pleased as well.

[fishwax]

9. 3 of the first 4 picks are Sooners

:applause:

[a la izquierda]

14. Hell to the YEAH!

Boomer Sooner!!
Hi Fishwax

[fishwax]

17. and a fourth should go before the night is over

:woohoo:

Hi a la izquierda :hi:

-- off topic, did I see on another thread a while back that you're finishing up your time at OU this semester?

[JonLP24]

15. Joe Haden went to Cleveland

:thumbsup:

[Auggie]

16. One of their many, many needs

5' 11"... Uh, I wouldn't mind a few extra inches.

[flvegan]

19. The Bucs took McCoy.

Welcome to Suckville, Gerald!

[fishwax]

23. Maybe he'll make like Lee Roy Selmon

Tampa has had good luck with Sooner D-Lineman in the past.

[flvegan]

27. Selmon didn't play under ineptness like Raheem Morris.

[fishwax]

33. lol -- true

Hopefully GK won't have to start his career with a 26-game losing streak like Selmon did, though. :)

[JonLP24]

20. Another bust to Oakland

:hide:

[Auggie]

22. They certainly didn't draft by need -- should have drafted a GM

[fishwax]

24. bwahaha!

:rofl:

[madinmaryland]

37. Unfortunately they can't draft a new owner. Though could Al Davis

draft someone to buy the club from him?

[Auggie]

38. Al is about 124 years old...

he can't hold on forever.

[fishwax]

41. As a Broncos fan, I hope he finds a way to hold on forever

:)

[madinmaryland]

43. Isn't the AFL named after their founder??

The Al (Davis) Football League??

:D

[Robeson]

59. He'll be O.K. There biggest problem is that they have a 300 lb. lard ass as QB...

...and they aren't/didn't address that issue.

[Angleae]

66. It could have been worse.

"Oooohhh, two heisman's and he's fast." At least Denver took him so he's not around in the 2nd round.

[charlie and algernon]

21. the Bills select .... Spiller???

:wtf:


I was really hoping the NIners could've taken him and gone to a 2 RB system.

[underpants]

25. THIS COULD BE THE YEAR I GET *THE* CALL!!!

Come on Cowboys
Come on Browns


I have been draft eligible for 23 years. I may be willing to come down on my demands at this point.

[JonLP24]

26. Denver-San Francisco swapped picks

Reportedly.

[fishwax]

28. and the Broncos get SF 4th rounder as well

I'm cool with that.

[Auggie]

29. They traded up for Davis?

I don't get it...

[JonLP24]

32. He's a good OT

I actually hoped my team, AZ, would draft him if my other dream picks did not come through. However, I did not expect him to go this early.

[Auggie]

34. That's what I mean. Was it necessary to trade up?

Unless he was pegged by Miami it doesn't make sense.

[Upton]

36. Who knows?

but this dude's real big..and he fills a need. I've been reading about him, supposed to be a devastating run blocker...Gore and Singletary will like that.

I've seen him rated as high as the second best OT in the draft..

[Auggie]

39. Hey, I'm happy. A big guy to fill a big hole.

[charlie and algernon]

30. niners take Anthony Davis, OT from Rutgers

this is a good pick

[charlie and algernon]

31. Chargers trade up to pick 12

[fishwax]

35. Did Denver trade down again? What'd they get this time?

I'm watching with the sound off, so sometimes I miss a few things ...

[fishwax]

40. looks like they got the Eagles 1st round pick (24) and two Eagles 3rd rounders

[Condem]

42. What's with the phone shit?

Hey, Russell Okung. I hope that call was important because you got zero airtime. Nice move, ace.

[JonLP24]

45. I think the phone calls are from teams

letting the players know they are going to draft them. So far, I'm 100% correct in terms of predicting the team's next picks which are when they are on the clock the players that have tears flowing. Okung was probably receiving a call from the team that was drafting him based on the tears.

[Condem]

47. Well, Jon. Then the team should no better.

This is a fashion show.

[JonLP24]

48. A

very talented fashion show. One of my favorite annual events.

[madinmaryland]

53. They are waiting to see when ND moves to the MAC, Pittsburgh goes to the Big 10,

and Maryland goes to the Big East!

:D

[Auggie]

55. ... and San Francisco drafts Tebow!

[madinmaryland]

60. Dammit! Now you have killed the whole draft, and JJ will now take Tebow!

:mad:

Pox on you!

[Mojambo]

44. Boy this draft fell right for Seattle.

Got the tackle and the safety I wanted.

LOVE it.

[JonLP24]

46. NFC West

St. Louis - Sam Bradford
Seattle - Russell Okung
SF - Anthony Davis
Seattle - Earl Thomas

(Cardinals fan----:scared:)

[Auggie]

49. Do the 49ers take Dez Bryant here?

[charlie and algernon]

50. Mike Iupati, G, Idaho

[JonLP24]

51. Another O-Lineman

I did not expect this but I like it. Two O-lineman in the first round, one a guard, the other, a tackle.

[Auggie]

54. Gore hasn't run the same since Larry Allen was on the line

And yes, not expected until one recalls Singeltary's comment that he wanted to be able to run the ball when the other team knew they had to run the ball.

Ball control is the greatest defense. Smash-mouth offense is coming to the Bay Area.

[Auggie]

52. Iupati

The REALLY NEED a run blocking guard. I like it.

[fishwax]

56. Bengals just picked up a pretty good tight end

Congrats, Jermaine Gresham :toast:

[theHandpuppet]

69. Finally, a TE who can actually catch a football!

The only thing I worry about is his durability. Those knee injuries worry me.

[Condem]

58. I can go to bed now.

Bulaga to the Pack.

[madinmaryland]

61. Dez Bryant to the Cowboys. nt

[Bluzmann57]

62. Bulaga to Green Bay!

Great pick. A tough Iowa player to a tough midwestern team. I'm elated.

[MadBadger]

63. Tim Tebow to Denver

[Auggie]

64. I needed a new reason to hate the Broncos. Thank you, Pat Bowlen.

[fishwax]

65. ugh

:wtf:

[Mojambo]

67. Isn't Colorado kind of Fundie Central?

Seems like a match made in, well, heaven.

I hate the Broncos so this is a perfect match for me.

[KamaAina]

70. What's next? Moving the team to Colorado Springs?

That's Fundie Central. :scared:

[BlooInBloo]

68. Seemed like 1st round was really big for DL. And lol @ Denver.

[nickinSTL]

71. getting annoyed with the NFL.com coverage

the studio team keeps talking over the picks. I know it's the late 2nd round, but I want to see the picks, not listen to their BS.

I also don't need to keep seeing the Tebow interview. I've seen it. Move on. There are 58 other guys who've been picked so far who they could talk to or about. Shut up about him.

And I wish they'd go back to the on-site team.

[Auggie]

72. There's ESPN

but Mel Kuiper is just as annoying

[nickinSTL]

73. not for me

I don't have cable/satellite - so, I can only watch what's streamed online, which seems to be NFL.com.

As much as I was complaining about the studio team, now the on-site team is talking over the picks just as much. Apparently the later rounds, they somehow figure that the fans would rather listen to their constant babble than actually know who the picks are.

I'm tracking the picks on espn.com while watching the live coverage on nfl.com.

[Iggo]

78. And Mel Kiper is the LEAST annoying of the panel on ESPN.

[JonLP24]

74. I think they are plenty of good value players left

Joe McKnight, Colt McCoy to name a couple.

[Auggie]

75. BROWNS GET MCCOY!

I would have been just as excited if Colt had gone to the 49ers or Raiders, both teams in desperate need of a QB

[JonLP24]

76. I like the pick for the Browns

and the fact they got him at #85 overall. :thumbsup:

[Auggie]

79. I can't imagine this not being successful...

not with Holmgren on board. Now the Browns need some luck. And no more bone-headed player behavior off the field.

[El Supremo]

77. Absolutely gross! n/m

[Auggie]

80. Heh

:bounce:

[nickinSTL]

81. my team had only one pick so far (the Bears)

picked up S Major Wright-FL.

I don't know much of anything about him.

I know safety is a major need for the Bears, so that's a good thing.

I'm really concerned about the lack of work on the Bears' part on doing anything about the disaster that was the offensive line last year. Nothing at all, afaik.

They'll still struggle if they don't give Forte, Taylor and Cutler some help - protect Cutler and open some holes for Forte and Taylor to run.

[Auggie]

82. Bruce Campbell, OT, goes to the Raiders in the fourth round

[BulletproofLandshark]

83. He has a number of tools to help out in pass protection.

[Auggie]

84. He'll fit right in

[nickinSTL]

85. so,,,

the Bears finally get an o-lineman in the 7th round.

And pick LeFevour in the 6th.

:wtf:

With no o-line and a QB pick, I gotta wonder if they're setting Cutler up to fail.
