The 2012 NFL Draft Thread, 4/26 8EST/5PST Vikings are on the clock

[Kimchi Papi]

I give the Steelers a B+, maybe an A-. I wanted them to get some CBs but didn't like most of them. Loving the Bengals' draft. If Jordan Shipley comes back from his injuries, Gruden is going to have all kind of weapons for Dalton. I think lawfirm will do well at RB too. Man, the ACF North is going to be tough again...

It will be interesting to see what Colbert does the rest of the draft. He sent 'Toine to the jets & got a 5th rd pick. He sent that 5th to the Cards to ge back CB McFadden & a 6th. We used that 6th to get Antonio Brown...

Since I don't see a lot of CBs, maybe we can target Pitt's G/OT Lucas Nix. He can play guard or RT....

Yeah and now he can be overpaid the right way without breaking rules 

Can he block out the backfield?

 

[doublejs07]

Skins doing their best to keep RGIII upright....with the last few selections, I'd like to see them take BPA.

 

[elpablo21]

Damn, I cant believe Polk hasnt been picked up yet

Never even heard of this degenerative arthritis info till now

 

[champcruthik]

In all honesty, Boom is not a very polished or good blocker. Can't really catch either. More of a grinder compared to Lance Ball on Denver. Also not a big play threat.

 Well this pick was kind of a odd. We still have Cedric Peerman, Brian Leonard and Bernard Scott behind Law Firm. 

Competition pick that could grow into more is my guess.

Very good draft. Ben is tough but he wont last too long playing against the Ravens and Bengals 4 times a year with a weak O-Line.

I was wondering why the Bengals didn't go Linebacker at all this year then I remember Dontay Moch is coming off the injured list. He said he still feels just as fast as before.



Linebacker

Must be the Ohio connection. Wish you guys signed Michael Bush over Law Firm. Would like to see Cincy unseat Baltimore and Pittsburgh.

Well with Bush I think someone said he came in over weight. Not sure how true that is.

 

[champcruthik]

Yeah, man. Heard that report also. Dude was trying to get his Jerome Bettis on. Wonder if it was just Chicago leaking that to drive down his value and contract leverage in negotiations.

Whatever the case may be, he goofed to even show up out of shape.
I did not know Vontaze tested positive for weed at the combine. 

 Not everyone in college is smart. He is the poster boy for that.

Any miami fans know if Sean Spence can be moved from OLB to strong safety?

No, he can't be.

Those boys ball.

Wish we would've drafted Polk over Herron. Is Tauren Poole still on the board too? Target those 2 as UDFAs if they don't make it.

Did anyone pick up Cam Johnson?

Mez, Adrien Robinson is a freak athlete. He shows flashes of being a good TE sometimes, but he struggled with the playbook throughout his time at Cincy. Consistency is also a big issue with him. If he can put it all together he could be really good, but not sure if I'd bet on it.

 

[Pathos]

anyone drafted Janzen Jackson?

 

[sensaciondelbloque]

Pats going ham on defense.

 

[10508 cardo jr ln]

Bryce Brown to Philly.....

 

[champcruthik]

Excellent value corner pick by Bill and the Pats. I don't believe Janzen has been selected yet, Antonio Allen either (best safety left). Like the value for SD on Molk too, even though he's a Michigan guy. Best RB left is Polk then Baker. Can any team channel Burfict to be a Brandon Spikes?

 

[i fr3sh i]

@ them only being able to show Bryce Brown's Tennessee footage

If Janzen Jackson hasn't been selected then Antonio Allen isn't the best safety left

 

[champcruthik]

Arguable, Dre. What makes Janzen a better prospect than Allen for you?

 

[dmxfury]

Very happy with Pitt

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Ball skills, speed and the fact that he is not a LB/S tweener

 

[k3stacks]

Eagles job well done

 

[T0INE]

Any notable names went undrafted?

 

[zmoney3]

^ Jeff Fuller from A&M...dude was a 1st round lock, decided to come back to school, went undrafted...WOW

 

[stackjaxx]

Burfict.
Top 5 talent at the end of the season, just kept doing dumb %@+@ as the process progressed.
after he pissed hot, it was a lock.
