Players taken that were completely under the radar and you think are going to have a good/ maybe even great careers..?



idk, I'm sorry but I think

Cal Poly's Ramses Barden chosen by New York Giants

Will have a really good career, he's big, and is good in jump ball situations, he isn't really a deep threat but he will be more of a red zone WR..And Eli Manning Loves Big WR's.

This is going to turn into a homer thread.

Jarrett Dillard picked by the Jaguars. I got to see him get a ton of yards against Texas, and he had a crappy support. Also I believe Nate Davis might be a pretty good QB for San Fran.

By Far It Was Everette Brown

The Guy Was Supposed A Projected Top 10 Player For A While And He Fell To Carolina's Lap In The 2nd Round!

Oh hell yea, I forgot, Nate Davis in San Fran pretty good, I think he'll do good

And Vikes got a steal with Perc, I think he'll do well.

I honestly believe Curry at #4 to the Seahawks is a steal, as odd as that sounds.

Probably sound homerish, but I think Pettigrew is going to be a hell of a player.

I really like their first round picks, and their late round picks. But the second through forth round, I'm not quite sure about (I like Derrick Williams but their was better WRs). But I love their draft after the 6th round. Aaron Brown could be a very good return man if healthy. Murtha and Follett were very good picks for the seventh round, and could be starters in given time. But Stafford and Pettigrew could be a very deadly combo. Pettigrew will be amazing. But I would of liked them to get Oher

Yeah Oher would of been a better pick, but I think Pettigrew is going to be great.
Overall I think we had a very solid draft. Your not sold on Delmas though?

Rey Maualuga to Cincinnati in the 2nd round. I just see this guy as the 2nd coming of Shawne Merriman.

William Moore to Atlanta at pick 55 is a downright steal. This guy was a first round projection a month ago...great size, good athlete. I think scouts see him as more of a Roy Williams & feel his coverage skills aren't up to par but I see him more as a Rodney Harrison-like player.

Shonn Greene to the Jets in Round 3. 227 pounds and can run between the tackles. I think this is the type of back the Jets need mixed in with all of their finesse guys already in place.

Michael Johnson to Cincinnati in the 3rd is also a disgusting steal. This guy is 6'7", talent of a first round pick and ran a 4.75. For those who don't know, he's a D-End.

Ricky Jean-Francois
to San Francisco towards the bottom of Round 7. After watching a lot of this guy at LSU, I know he can be an effective guy in an NFL D-Line. Got the size, got the techinique, but needs NFL coaching. He may not be a star but keep in mind 7th round picks typically are lucky to make the practice squad.

No, I just didn't know you guys had 10 Picks, damn how many picks did dallas give you guys lol
We got 3, but gave up 1 I think.

Then we traded 3.1 to the Jets for 3 picks.

IDK lol.

Michael Johnson was a huge steal, and I honestly think Crabtree at 10 was a great pick.
