NFL Draft

Post by Steve Solbo »

Who's on your wishlist for your teams? Be reasonable.

I take any of the following. JJ Watt, Nate Solder, Ryan Kerrigan, Mark Ingram, with the 17th pick.

Heard some rumors that the Browns are trying to trade out of the #6 slot... Pats have inquired.

Strange cuz they RARELY move up in the draft. They won't pull the trigger on that until Cleveland is on the clock, and the player the Pats want is there for them. Give them #17 and their 1st second rounder for that pick? Not sure i'd like it...

I'm not sure I like the idea of my Bengals taking A.J. Green in the first round. I'd rather get a top D Lineman or one of the top QBs if available at pick 4.

Well I assume you know that each pick has like a point value?

It would be the #17 and #28 for the #6, unless there is someone at 6 that BB thinks is going to be a game changer on Defense, this is all likely gamesmenship.

Here's McShay's thoughts on the Pats... all 7 rounds.

No. 17 -- DE Cameron Jordan (California)
No. 28 -- OLB Brooks Reed (Arizona)
No. 33 -- OL James Carptenter (Alabama)
No. 60 -- DT Jarvis Jenkins (Clemson)
No. 74 -- RB Daniel Thomas (Kansas State)
No. 92 -- CB Curtis Brown (Texas)
No. 125 -- WR Cecil Shorts (Mount Union)
No. 159 -- S Eric Hagg (Nebraska)
No. 193 -- RB Charles Clay (Tulsa)

Personally, I would love this draft. Cam Jordan is like a Willie McGinest clone. Brooks Reed is like Clay Matthews, OL from Bama. Jenkins, is a big, big boy, and was part of a Clemson Defense that was near the top of the country in overall defense, Daniel Thomas started last year real hot. Curtis Brown, I've seen him being taken in some mocks as early as the late second early 3rd, so he's solid. I've heard the Pats have had this Cecil Shorts kid in a couple times for visits. Don't know the last 2. I know that the new Clemson OC was the Tulsa OC last year, and they were like top 10 in the country in offense, so the kid must have some skill... Hagg, can't complain about taking a "blackshirt".

Being selfish, if DaQuan Bowers was still around at #17, I would take him. Guy is a stud, and I don't think he knee is as much of an issue as people are saying it is, he played with the injury for most of last year and still tallied 63 Tackles 15.5 Sacks 24 TFL 17 QB Pressures.

His TFL resulted in 150 yards of loss for opponents. Won the Nagurski Award, which is awarded to the best DLinemen in the nation. Nasty at guitar, plays in a gospel band and is a straight laced kid.

If any team was going to draft a guy named "Amukamara" it was going to be the Giants
