The bringing in of so many QBs really irks me. Philip is contracted to play for us in 2015 minimum. Yes there's a v small chance he could be traded prior to 2015 season but I don't see this happening for a second. And even if it did happen it is not like one of these rookies is ready to play. Instead we'd be going into battle with Clemens and an unproven rookie backup, no thanks to that.

All these visits are wasted opps to see other players like O linemen, pass rushers etc.

I agree with you, would rather they look further into rb as well seems good value in round 3/4 this year, dt/lb seems good value in mid rounds to, could be worth looking at them to

I was thinking about this last night actually - watching a steelers ravens game. why did the Jags let Monroe walk again?

He was one of the highest paid players on their team. Was a top ten pick (8th overall) in the 2009 draft back when rookies got outrageous salaries. Maybe not a factor for the Jags who don't struggle with cap space

He was entering the last year of his contract and they got a 4th & 5th from the Ravens for him.

He probably would have gone elsewhere in FA so may as well get two draft picks a year early. They also spent the No.2 pick in 2013 on Luke Joeckel so they had another high profile tackle on the roster

I do like Cody Prewitt, his stock has taken a bit of a hit as he seemed to be protecting himself last year. It seems a bit early for him at this point (think he will be around in the early 3rd round)

Love that Dorial Green-Beckham pick. Despite his well documented off field issues, I can't help but think he's an absolute steal in the second round.

I concur

Cody Prewitt wouldn't have been my pick, but I really cant argue with the taken him there. pair him up with Pryor and the Jets could potentially have a decent set of safeties for the next decade

No worries bud. Hope your mum is doing good.

Who would u have picked had u been there for #17 out of interest?

Many thanks Leslie91.

I think I would have gone with Parker (WR) but was also considering beefing up the O-Line, although with some top guys gone, it could have waited until another round.

I should be ok for the 2nd round, unless my spot is gone, and that's ok, just let me know.




/My mother has had a terrible run of events, enough to knock out some of the toughest American Footballers around, in that last year and a half she's had: a broken arm, concussion, chemotherapy, broken hip, radiotherapy and lastly a suspected stroke !! I told her to quit American Football but she insists on playing the RB position :eek:

That's exactly what I was thinking. I picked Kendricks, despite the fact that it means us drafting another LB along with picking up one in FA. I gave serious thought to one or other of the WRs on the board, which IRL the Bears will probably pick up having dropped Marshall. I also actually had picked Darby and written up a thing on him, but decided I was just overreacting to the loss of Charles Tillman late last night. A CB who is weak against the run is the last thing the Bears need. We need a safety as a matter of urgency but I wasn't going to reach for one, which would have had to happen. Couldn't believe Kendricks had fallen this far though, so kind of had to take him, think he's a steal there.

Unless I missed him being picked earlier, but I checked twice and didn't see it.

Nice pick. Personally might have went for Strong at WR (big fan) but love that pick anyway.

Rams GM dropped out and Leslie91 will make the pick

Sorry Empacher but it was gone over a day and we had to move on. Any GM can pm picks to me if you're not going to be around

Leslie91

What's up Mr Giants GM?

mikemac1

I know I'm annoying, I know, I know :rolleyes:

Taking the time to post pics and videos is appreciated and tbh it's expected. Only one GM came back to me and if a laptop failed that can't be helped so that's cool.

GM's say they will do it later but it just does not happen, never ever

I know I'm annoying ye with pm's but it's not for me, it's for the few hundred who will read your post. It also makes it difficult to read as two picks got missed initially when the list above was being typed up by Leslie91 ^^^

Come on guys, takes less then 1 minute to jazz up the posts

Last year almost all the 2nd round and every single post of the 3rd round had this sorted.

You probably cannot edit the posts now but pm'ing a mod will sort this

Would have been the pick I would have made. Best OG in the class. If our 1st 2 picks work out like this I'd be very happy.

Paully D

4 players for 2 positions I have my eye on for the Texans at #19 (well, #51 to be precise). 9 picks left, I wonder if any of them will fall?

raze_them_all_

just going to do my write ups for my picks here here a mod can feel free to edit and move them where necessary.


redskins Draft I went with Donte Fowler Jr. Redskins need to get after the qb and Fowler gives them that, he is versitile as he has been played in different positions at different weights, He has long and strong, a great athlete with a great first step, I really believe when a pro team takes him and sets him into one position he will hit a probowl or two

On the down side he has been bounced around positions and weights so much he is still pretty raw in some aspects of the game, and pretty much if you beat him you beat him he probably isnt going to get back into it, but as I said that can be improved once he nails down a position

Cody Prewitt. Realistically if I was the jets I'd look to trade down and pick him up in the bottom half of round 2 but I took him in our mock as he is who I would pick up late second/early third.

Make no mistake you aren't going to be picking up a superstar from the get go here at all but what you will pick up is a 6'2 safety that is dependable. His closing speed is better than you think, he lead the sec in interceptions last year so has an eye for the ball and if he gets going at in a straight line he will take you down often harder than you expect from a safety.

On the other hand his lateral movement isn't the best and he's an average athlete who doesn't play as big as he should.

If the Browns can these 3 picks in the actual draft I'd say they'd be extremely happy, Shaq Thompson is really good value at #43 imo
