NFL draft

Just to emphasize, GB drafted Hillenmeyer. So if he’s your Ace in the hole, it shows GB is better at drafting.

And Urlacher? A great talent, obviously, but I’ll use Barnett to call and Hawk to raise.

You had the #2 defense to our #7 defense last year. The chasm has suddenly become much, much smaller.

Jets take Mangold, Colts take Addai.

Are there any other Frank Zappa fans reading this? I hope I’m not the only one who was amused to hear that both Mangold and A.J. Hawk were from Centerville, Ohio?

Wow. They don’t even have to step onto the field to fuck themselves. This day just keeps getting better and better.

Except for the Colts getting Mangold. OTOH, Pittsburgh is my AFC team so I guess I should be happy that Manning will be healthy enough for the next 5 years to find a way to keep Indy from winning the SB. :stuck_out_tongue:

Or New York. Whatever. :smack:

Ha. I was waiting for the anureyism to hit. We were taking bets too. I just missed with “2 minutes”.

Come on, Bears. Don’t fail me now. I wanna see Omniscent’s mock suicide post like I did.

Guesses:

Seahawks - Jimmy Williams

Texans - Justice

Saints - Mathias Kiwanuka

Jets - LenDale White

Packers - Jean-Gilles

49ers - Chad Jackson

Raiders - Gabe Watson

Titans - Ashton Youboty

Lions - Marcus McNeil

Cards - Kelly Jennings

Bears - Sinorice Moss (god we fucked up…)

Because he’s about to slide to the upper second round, LenDale White is now giving the obligatory “nobody ever believed in me” speech. What a crock. That said, I think he’s going to do well for somebody and could have worked as Pittsburgh’s replacement for Bettis.

Hm. I’d be kinda happy if the Lions for Yobouty now that he was skipped over for Kelly Jenings.

I’d be happy if my fingers wanted to work properly as well.
They’re numb sausages, folks.

You’re insane. I cheered out loud when Tags announced it. Trade down again now, I say!

WTF does the #4 ranked offense in the league with all starters returning need with a WR?

Same reason a team with great Ends would draft Kiwanuka.

Omniscent, the Giants disappeared in your mock draft. Is that by design?

Mel Kiper doesn’t like. I think I agree, as well. Too early for this guy.

Holy fucking shit are fucking KIDDING ME?!

DE is possibly the strongest position on the whole fucking team. Fucking General Tom and his fucking hardon for fucking Boston College guys. FUCK!

Did this guy knock up his other daughter or what?

Strahan’s time is growing short, though.

The strange picks are continuing. The Texans take Ryans?

shrug It’s SO out of my hands. Didn’t we have a thread about who should be the next commish for the NFL? Get them on the horn, for crying out loud and tell them to straighten this out!

I don’t get the Giants’ pick either. You guys inhaling swamp gas from the Meadowlands or something?

Jean-Gilles in the second round? I could think of worse. I was also thinking Darryl Tapp, but much like Carrol, I don’t like that he’s not very tall. Take 2 guys with a 40 inch verticle and factor in one is 6 inches taller, and you see the problem.

BTW, I’ve seen a lot of negative on Hawk for not having “hip fluidity”. What the hell is hip fluidity and is it really something that will take an elite LB and lower him to a class of standard everyday LB’s?

Honestly, before today I had never heard of “hip fluidity”. I have to think it’s something that can be learned since it didn’t seem to be an issue in past years.

Yeah, Ryans is good value there, but you’d Justice would fit PERFECTLY into what they need. The issues with him must be bigger than any of us know.

I’m really hoping the Pats can sneak up in the second round, there are a LOT of quality players who have dropped at this point.

Allow me to relay the ESPN.com reaction my Bills’ first-round picks:

However, Kiper seems to think the Whitney selection was justified. Either way, these look like big gambles.

That was shocking. Strahan isn’t that close to retirement is he? He and Osi put on a DE clinic all year, yet we need more DEs. Lame!

They kind of make shit up like that up. “Hip fluidity” would be how quickly his hips flip over. Say you’re running sideways, covering a tight end and he crosses and goes to your other side. They’d have to flip their bodies around. The speed of said flipping is determined by their hips.

I agree, Kiros. There’s gotta be a reason Justice is falling so damned far. I’m getting giddy again.

Lendale White is undervalued. He should have been taken by now. He will be a good pro. Mark these words.
