***Official Draft Thread Day One***

The best pick since Larry Allen

Interesting comment. I'll have to go back and look to be sure I don't miss someone but off the bat I'd say Smith may be right now. Interesting.

I thought the best pick of the first round was the Vikings selecting Bridgewater at 32.

The worst pick was the Dolphins' selection of Ja'Wuan James. With an honorable mention to the Eagles reaching for Marcus Smith.

I'm not sold on Teddy as a QB...but I am as a person. GREAT kid and I'm very happy he went in the first.

OK I originally hated the idea of taking OL early in this draft... But if we get that Xavier Su'Filo guy in the second to pair with Travis Frederick, Tyron Smith, and now Zack Martin... Damn... best o-line in football by next season. And Murray is running for 1500 yrds behind that wall.

We better start loading up on the D with maybe an exception until round 7. JMO.

Looks like JJ Wilcox will be our starting free safety next season

That should have been obvious by now.

Jason Witten, DeMarcus Ware.

Jason Witten, DeMarcus Ware.

I was thinking OL only and I think him, too.

I've seen a few Bridgewater pieces lately & he is a great guy. Good for him.

In the Second: If Xavier Su'Filo is there for the taking, and there are no higher rated D-Linemen, don't you have to take the guard?

I am not blaming you for being excited, but Martin would be lucky to have the career that Flozell and Gurode had during thir day and I won't even mention Tyron and Fred. Martin is not top tackle prospect and some teams didn't have him as their top guard prospect. If anything, he is a safe pick that should have a solid career and his ability to play more than one position gives him value as well.

No there are still CBs out there as well as LBs. I'm not certain about the safeties but I'm guessing that's not a high priority for them this year. They have to have another decent CB from somewhere. I'm not the person to talk to in the later rounds. I just can't keep up with it with all the other stuff I have to do.

They can get by without another DL although I advise against it. But they have to find another pass rusher or three. I was hoping on getting Shazier as a WLB and situational pass rusher. They are going to have to take one of the lesser rated guys tonight and hope it works out. They should be looking for a WLB, too.

while that does have me salivating a bit, even i think that would be too much given our needs on D.

 

[Carolina Cowboy]

The ESPN set tonight and the rest of the draft is Berman, Mel, Dilfer and McShay. A much better panel than what they did in the first round. That was a horrible decision going with Gruden and Ray Lewis. They were NFLN bad.

Dude, Lewis was beyond Emmitt bad. Lost, confused, marble mouthed and completely out of sync with the rest of the crew. I generally can stand Chuckie but the JF love pick after pick was asinine beyond words.
