I'm just not a fan. He gets the Matthews comparisons, but he's not nearly as athletic. He's got a sick burst, but that's pretty much all he does. He sucks in space.

lol Packers won't take Titus Young...Ted doesn't pick small bitchy receivers

packers make a good case for not needing to stay healthy to win. just winning games is all that counts. doesnt matter how you do it. lol at saints fans complaining about falcons winning bc they stayed healthy.

i think jake locker is stepping into a great situation. titans have loads of talent on offense. kenny britt, if he aviods suspension, is one of the best in the game. chris johnson can obv take tons of pressure off. line is quality. i think he's the leading candidate for oroy along with ingram.

The Pats can't snipe, but I do wonder if the Packers are "required" to pick by a certain time. Otherwise, I think teams would just not pick in this scenario every single year, right?

IS there anyone available who can run back kicks? I'd like it not to be a starting CB.

We don't have much outside pass rushers, but this kid is a beast.

Kris Jenkins had said he was coming back guess it's not to the Jets though. Feel for the guy because he was so good when he wasn't hurt

Yeah that has been asked a bunch actually, but I believe Schefter or some NFLN checked with the commish's office and they said it wouldn't fly.

why wouldnt NE be able to pick? it would be the 32nd selection and thus end of the first round

Yes, but there's no need to pick him here.

There are a lot of really good playmaker types that will be available at #64 or #96.. Cobb, Jernigan, etc

no one said that, falcons won because they ran absurdly good in close games. like i said, hartley hits that FG in OT, they don't even win the division.

No, the first round is the first round. The first round is not the first 32 picks of the draft.

no it really doesn't imo. they got the 28th pick in the draft. it is likely that they will give up a better pick than 28 next year despite nath's assurances that they will win the super bowl.

there is some value to having the first round pick now instead of next year. but i don't think that value is equal to a second rounder + whatever the difference is between #28 and their expected 1st round pick next year (probably something like low 20s i would guess?).
