Offical 2008 NFL draft Thread. 12PT/3ET on ESPN/NFLNetwork

[N41D]

Cowboys signed UDFA Marcus Dixon. 6'4, 295 DE from Hampton. Apparently has some serious character concerns (though he seems to have put them in his past)but is widely considered an intriguing project if he can keep himself out of trouble.

DeSean Jackson in the slot is going to be a TERROR. Forget press coverage. You get that dude matched against a LB or S, and he's gonna get LOOSE.

Don't forget he's also gonna be a danger in the return game as well.

Missed a lot of the draft today. Can anyone tell me where Andre Woodson got drafted and who took him?

Better than 6'2", 237 Erik Walden.

I hope he's a DE/S hybrid.

Yeah, that was definitely a bit of a head scratcher... They'lltry to move him to OLB, I'd assume, but maybe they took him to be a special teams all-star... Regardless, it seems like the consensus is Jerry reached alittle bit on that one.

Not exactly I seen the Oprah episode recently and she was acting extra funny. I wont say he raped her but he said them special words to make her dosomething she would regret. He had no business doing that in school either. He was 17 for the record

 

[gangsta207therevolution]

Steve Slaton is going to be better than Chris Johnson imo. way better cause eventually hes going to spell a bigger back. He can def do what Reggie Bush hasdone so far as a pro. ( not as high a ceiling though) SLATON: I never ran one of those in my life. A month ago in Arizona, I had a 4.27. Hand-held [time]there, though. But that's what [NFL] coaches go by

my dude was pissed so was Darius

 

[patriots 18 1]

So unhappy with the Charger picks

We need WRs not more CBs and a RB

 

[owensstr8clownin]

where can i follow fa rookie signs?

 

[theone2401]

Why do you think so?

I think they are the same person except Johnson is faster. They both have the same issues.

I use KFFL.

http://www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl#468617

Grice-Mullen signed with the Texans; Bess with the Dolphins.

so was Darius
I can't believe he wasn't drafted/hasn't been signed yet.

 

[wildout4]

the homie sam baker getting that 1st round money

and props the other homie beau going in the 4th.

Murphy: Bell is a solid choice for the Browns, who will likely move him to inside linebacker. He compares favorably to David Harris (Jets). A leg injury at the Senior Bowl cost him to run poorly at his Pro Day. Last spring, Bell ran in the 4.55 range at 245 pounds. Watch this kid start as a rookie.

wouldnt be surprised, the dude is a playmaker.

Word is DeSean was acting like a straight up thug in his team interviews, could be the reason he wasn't picked higher

Chris Johnson's got a tin can where his heart is supposed to be, too?

 

[gunna get it]

Trust n believe Desean aint act no parts thug in any interviews.
He has been getting groomed for the nfl for yrs.
Dudes brother works for the nfl.

that info

 

[goldenticket21]

Congrats to my homie Andre Woodson getting drafted! sad he went to Giants, dude should be a starter in the league.

and i see my squad denver got 2 beasts/steals in the 7th round Josh Barrett and Peyton Hillis. Cant wait to see them play.
Ryan Torain in the 5th is iffy, but i think he will be good with the system.
Still cant believe Denver passed on D.Jackson and picked E.Royal instead...ugh..i wanted Desean to be a bronco so bad.

word. i've NEVER heard anyone say he's a thug at all....dfresh apparently said his friend works for the niners (9ers offseason thread)andthat's what they said. i don't think it's true, cuz he never comes across as a thug in any way, shape or form with his play or even hisinterviews.
