The Official Round 1 Draft Thread

[biggunsbob]

Nice. ..we picked a kid that's going to retire in 2 years because he goes on to cure Jamaica. Nice job mayhew....

LOL damn funny MH But probably true with our luck..

Depth. Depth is good to have at every position.

Top 15 cap hit at his position is a lot for depth.

You don't draft depth in round 1! We just picked a backup guard who was ranked a round 3 talent with our first round pick. SOL!

Man Ram is the depth.

Tomlinson is plug and play

 

[Mitchrapp]

Still don't like it..Still would have rather had a better pick and no Ramirez.

I think this pick blows holes in the Lions Best Player Available theory. No way he was the highest rated on their board. No way. I think he's going to be great on the line for us, but there is absolutely no way he was BPA.

you have to wonder if they wanted Byron Jones but the damn cowboys got him

Seriously? Who do you think our starting guards are this year?

I don't know. Pretty poopey after 15. The guy is very good and keeps Staff vertical. You'll see. Excellent pick, I am shocked they got it

This was a huge reach! Normally I like Oline, but if you go guard in round 1 you better be getting a po bowler. Graded as a third rounder, we could have waited and gotten him 30 picks later. Awful.

3rd Rounder....thats why he was invited to the first round huh?

 

[Monster]

LOL didn't Mayock said he didn't like Tomlinson's feet? Kiper said he has really good feet.

 

[inkfreq]

I call total bullshit. This guy was a 1st to 2nd round grade all the way... which is why he was there to have his name called on night one. He was one of 27 guys invited to the first night.

Round three my ass.

 

[jdeb]

Pats wanted him. Great pick mayhew

I finally agree with you, tape monster

 

[Mitchrapp]

Somehow I feel the offense getting better, defense getting worst and still no playoff wins.

 

[mhughes0021]

Is Jamaica a disease?

He said the entire healthcare system is fucked. ...maybe you missed his interview.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Warford and Ramirez.

 

[biggunsbob]

I wish I could be in a war room one draft just to see how it works and what happened.. That corner Dallas took looks good..

 

[JScottWriter]

People will bitch about any pick. We just went from a complete weakness at G to the position being filled with depth. What is there to bitch about?

 

[brewer229]

Pats wanted him. Great pick mayhew

Pats aren't the most successful drafters. They win because of elite QB and coach....funny how that works.

He wouldn't have lasted past the Pats at 32, considering they were trying to jump in front of us to take him.

No way, he was going to pats fo sho
