Hopefully his play is more indicative of future performance than that brutal 40 time...

But the Jets drafted a hell of a playerThe Sybian wrote:Same. Old. Jets. So basically the Jets have a mediocre, shaky QB with one receiver, no TE and RBs. Seriously, no RBs capable of carrying the ball, and not 1 TE capable of catching the ball. Other than Santonio Holmes who obviously has a lot of talent but is a locker room cancer and had to be benched for causing a fight in the huddle with 1 minute left in the season with the playoffs still on the line, so a character guy. Stephen Hill showed some flashes of talent, but injuries held him to 252 yards as a rookie. So that is the Jets entire offense. Yeah, Rex is going to need to hold opponents to single digits if he wants to win any games this year.Johnnie wrote:They just took Sheldon RIchardson. All the Jets fans looked around puzzled. What does that say?The Sybian wrote:Is This Milliner guy special? I'm sure the Jets fans booed the pick regardless.
I guess there aren't good RBs coming out this year, huh? But, at least I don't have to root for Teo, unless he makes it into the second round.

The fact that Fisher went number 1 makes up for the Lions taking a stiff at #5. So tonight is a good night. Fire up Chips!

The DT? He looks really small for a DT. I look at him and think Vernon Ghoulston. I am just jaded and scared off of small D-lineman after that debacle. This offseason is a nightmare for the Jets. They lost half their starters and picked up pretty much nothing in return. I may have to take the season off and focus on Arsenal.Brontoburglar wrote: But the Jets drafted a hell of a player

Richardson can actually play.
Re: 2013 NFL Draft

The only thing that's scary from the Jets perspective is that Richardson is not a 3-4 NT. He's a 3-4 DE, but they're set there, right? So fit may be interesting, but at the same time, it's not like Rex is going to be there in 2014, right?The Sybian wrote:The DT? He looks really small for a DT.

ETA: As Devilfluff said, Richardson was double teamed like crazy in the SEC and was a freaking beast. He was incredible against Alabama. (Every defensive snap he was in on is below. He's #34.

Can't believe Vikings passed on both Teo and Patterson. Still, love the guys they got. Floyd was a heck of a value. Rhodes was not supposed to be there at 25.

Well this is awkward. Now that the Pats traded out of the 1st round (to Minnesota), they had to run the "Boston Strong" stuff and have Joe Andruzzi talk now.

Very surprised by all the OGs taken tonight.
What is the take on Werner? I am not impressed with the selection. I felt Datone Jones would have fit the scheme better.
Very strange first round. EJ Manuel? Really?

Glad Vikings got Patterson. Wish they had kept either the 3 or the 4 they gave up, but they still have five picks in a deep draft, so not too upset.

Jerloma, I think Steeler fans are going to love Jarvis. His 40 was surprisingly bad, but this guy is a baller. Very high up on most Georgia fans all-time favorite lists. Just seems to be the type that makes huge plays at crucial times. The absolute key to the first back-to-back victories over Florida in 20 years.Jerloma wrote:Oh and he has spinal stenosis.

I think Jones will be a 6-8 year starter for the steelers, who always seem to get a lot out of their linebackers. He is a player.

Hopefully, he can learn the system quickly because they don't have much at OLB besides Woodley. That right side is his for the taking.

So only one QB drafted and no RBs drafted in the first round. That has to be unprecedented, right? And only 2 or 3 WRs, 1 TE? Lots of Linemen this year.

The disconnect between the national and Detroit media about the Ansah pick is pretty hilarious. The national guys love the pick -- Pete Prisco gave the Lions the only A+. The Detroit media is basically calling him Darko Ansah.

One of my best friends is a Lions season ticketholder and him and his pals are furious. Not sure why the national media loves it so much. 5th overall is far too early for an extremely raw player with very limited college production (even if he is admittedly a physical freak). At least that's this asshole's opinion.
Re: 2013 NFL Draft
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 2:11 pm
Yeah, no one I know likes the pick. If the Lions were picking later in the first round I wouldn't have had any issue with it -- he could absolutely develop into a beast -- but #5 was way too early. Though I guess at least they didn't trade up to reach like the Dolphins did.Johnny Hotcakes wrote:One of my best friends is a Lions season ticketholder and him and his pals are furious.
