NFL Draft Rd.1: Discussion, Rumors, Rumblings, Spoilers Gamethread

[Average Game James]

Why do teams take 1st round RBs? Why?

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Is that a smoking jacket?

 

[BaseballJones]

I honestly thought Pittsburgh might go Harris here. He'll be great there.

 

[67YAZ]

Harris looking 70s sophisticated.

 

[Beomoose]

Harris's family rent an AMC?

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Lego man

He's built more like a bowler than a football player.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Damn-good pick for the Curtain.

 

[67YAZ]

Barmore, Owusu-Karamoah, Moerig...some real defensive talent on the board.

 

[luckiestman]

Harris looking 70s sophisticated.

he looked cool

 

[Average Game James]

Barmore, Owusu-Karamoah, Moerig...some real defensive talent on the board.

Moehrig makes a lot of sense for JAX

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Commercial: “Macy’s is the fragrance destination.”

DDB Jr.: “That’s what I call my bathroom.”

 

[TripleOT]

NIce upside pick for Indy.

You see that pic of Paye as a toddler wearing a Sox hat. Love this kid.

Great backstory. War refugees who settled in Providence. Single parent Mom worked like crazy so Kwity could attend private high school.

His head is too big for his body but sometimes his body is too big for his head.

He's the wrong shape

This is sig worthy. Thanks for the laugh.

 

[67YAZ]

Should have added Newsome and Oweh to that list. Oweh is a legit freaky athlete.

 

[BaseballJones]

Wow two RBs in the first round.

 

[67YAZ]

Moehrig makes a lot of sense for JAX

Or JAX could just reassemble the Clemson squad.

 

[luckiestman]

Clemson south

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Maybe Dabo’s comps need to be ignored. Etienne ain’t Walter Payton. Watson ain’t Michael Jordan.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

God I hate this pick for Jacksonville. Take your found money in James Robinson and build the rest of your team.

 

[DontTauntOrtizMe]

Dolphins just getting better and better, getting Jaelan Phillips with the #18 pick. Thank god BB knows how to build out an OL.

Phillip’s is the son of one of my good clients. It’s a great family. Super happy for him.

 

[luckiestman]

2 RB going in front of Jets @ 34 is beautiful. Have a feeling we might trade down though (if possible).

 

[E5 Yaz]

Clemson south

A pretty good idea on their part to give Lawrence a binky

 

[bsj]

Awful pick for Jax.

 

[MuzzyField]

This is SO Jags... fill one of the few non-needs.

 

[Average Game James]

So are the Ravens going to replace one year of Brown with 5 years of Jenkins? Grrrr...

 

[j-man]

God I hate this pick for Jacksonville. Take your found money in James Robinson and build the rest of your team.

i wouild love james robinison as a phillp lindray replacement

 

[bsj]

I want Elijah Moore. I know we wont get him but I want him.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Good to know he Jags are getting a nice start on wasting Lawrence's career

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

That pumpkin guy is actually Rashard Higgins.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

So are the Ravens going to replace one year of Brown with 5 years of Jenkins? Grrrr...

That's why Newsome is so great. Jenkins is going to hurt a lot of people.

 

[67YAZ]

Get this girl to read the round 2 cards.

Newsome is legit. Nice pick.

New Orleans goes Stokes I'm predicting.

 

[j-man]

if eligh moore is at 40 denver has to think about with suttion and patrick with a year left

 

[bsj]

if eligh moore is at 40 denver has to think about with suttion and patrick with a year left

Pats have too many picks. Can they trade up for him? Big fan of his...

 

[Average Game James]

if eligh moore is at 40 denver has to think about with suttion and patrick with a year left

Aren't they mainly outside guys? And doesn't Jeudy run a lot of routes from the slot? Love Moore as a player, just don't see the fit.

 

[67YAZ]

That's why Newsome is so great. Jenkins is going to hurt a lot of people.

Agree on Jenkins, but Bateman is a fantastic all around WR. He'd open up a lot for the offense.

 

[Average Game James]

Wouldn't take a lot of breaks for them to get both...

 

[Ale Xander]

A pretty good idea on their part to give Lawrence a binky

This is a dumb reason to draft a 1st round RB, especially when it’s not even a need. Do we even know Lawrence likes playing with him anyway.

 

[j-man]

patton does like to trade down maybe your 2nd this year next year and 96

 

[luckiestman]

This draft started as shit but the house band + Eisen and Jeremiah isn’t bad

 

[heavyde050]

Great pick by the Ravens.

 

[j-man]

This draft started as shit but the house band + Eisen and Jeremiah isn’t bad

i pefer NFL Network but espn is a lot better on day 3

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Do we? No. Do they? Yes.

 

[bsj]

I like whoever is showing the Day 3 picks and not showing packages on day 1 draft picks.

 

[Beomoose]

Well I'm tapping out. Be cool if I wake up to a trade up for Moore or something. Much love, all.

 

[ZMart100]

To go from 14 to 8 in the 2nd round? That's way too much.

 

[j-man]

hamler is the slot when he is heaelhy

 

[j-man]

then swap 2nds and 96 ?

 

[Ale Xander]

Do we? No. Do they? Yes.

Please share the evidence

 

[ZMart100]

then swap 2nds and 96 ?

Still probably a bit rich. 46 + 96 for 40 + 116 is still a win for Denver by the trade chart.

 

[BaseballJones]

Please share the evidence

You need evidence for the claim that Lawrence and Etienne, teammates for three years at Clemson, know whether they like playing with each other?
