Draft Day ***NFL Draft First Round thread***

[darthseinfeld]

Dont sleep on them trading back into the first for Moehrig

 

[ZekeTrain]

Given the depth chart at LB this was just as much a major need as corner. With Horn and PS gone this was enevitable. Throw in the 3rd for trading down and its a win.

 

[conner01]

This probably means CB in 2 and not a safety....

Probably but we have the ammo to get up high enough to get the 3rd CB

 

[Trajan]

Honest question, where does Jerry hide the Johnny Walker Blue in the war room ? Under the table, or does the wall slide open to reveal a bar when the camera pans away ?

 

[jazzcat22]

Arguably best defensive player in the draft.

Many will not understand this.

Both NFLN and ESPN said this, as well now on the ticket
If not for the QB's taken, he would been in the top 10 picks.

Plenty of decent CB's in the 2nd round.

 

[mmohican29]

I'll say this.

Would have been happier with Surtain.

But Parsons is a complete bad *** and this team needs some edge. Let's hope his character matches his game.

The pre-injury comp to Jaylon is accurate. Let's hope it ends there because Jaylon Smith is dog****.

 

[J817]

He’s the closest thing to Aaron Hernandez in the draft.

Trash pick by a trash team.

Nobody even knows what he is going to be like on 3rd down.

If he can’t cover then it’s an auto bust.

Please please explain this. Is he a suburban thug murdering people?

 

[john van brocklin]

Oh is he? Oooooh yaaaaaaaaaas!!!!!!! Me happy! Run stopping LB who can hit hard. Been a while!

Defense, yes

 

[Rockport]

I was trashing Parsons long before our trash team selected him.

Trash on trash.

You would have trashed anyone they picked just like you do every year.

 

[Sydla]

And we give Devonta Smith to our arch rival? What the hell is wrong with this organization ?

Who is throwing him the ball?

Frankly, Smith was likely the biggest bust factor of the three top WRs. He's fast but small and he doesn't have a ton of wiggle.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Just as an aside... if Parsons catches DeVonte Smith with a flush hit, Philly might only have Smith for 1 season.

with the way he hits, i can see that

 

[BourbonBalz]

This probably means CB in 2 and not a safety....

We’ve got lots of picks to maneuver around.

 

[Whirlwin]

Yep and the only player I wanted in round 1 we got him and an extra 3rd Can get back into the 1st if they want to

As bad as we needed a corner. And I was hoping to solidify the position. This is the guy that I really wanted.

 

[Risen Star]

@Risen Star do you approve of this pick?

Yes but they were saved from the CB debacle and then gave the Eagles a great WR so I'm conflicted.

 

[CouchCoach]

Think Booger called Calvin Hill right after Parsons?

 

[Adreme]

You would be wrong.Pit is a good tight end maybe great. You need to be a football player to play defense

Defensive players are not more "football" then offensive players.

 

[Hawkeye19]

We got ammo to trade up... would love to see us jump up from 44 and take either Moehrig or Farley

 

[Buzzbait]

230 lbs and 4.39 speed
Now we don’t have to give 5th year option to LVE or we can move on from jaylon next year

4.39 is a LOTTA SPEED for a LB.

 

[Avery]

Great value pick by the Chargers.

 

[InTheZone]

damn is he that bad? Hernandez was a legitimate bad guy so if this guy is that bad....wow.

Hernandez was pretty much a known murderer/rapist by the locals, or suspected. Is Parsons even close to this lol
