2012 NFL Draft Thread.

[Hurricane Season]

Do not discount Sean Spence because of his size. He's one of the most instinctive linebackers I have seen in a while.

Anybody with a high football IQ that can wrap up and tackle will always have a home in the NFL. I'm not sure if it will be at linebacker or safety, but I think he has a future.

He's very underrated now I find for the Hurricanes. Just because that defense lacks a lot of talent, doesn't mean that his game should go completely unnoticed.

I hate bringing up all these guys that won't be coming out in 2012, but Robert Woods was studding out again last night. He runs such crisp and precise routes for the Trojans. He's going to be a stud in the NFL barring injury.

What a game last night in Southern California.

Matt Barkley showed some very good poise, and made some very solid throws against the tough Cardinals defense. He was very impressive all night, minus the one interception he threw.

On the other hand. Andrew Luck. Forget the arm, forget the smarts, forget everything for one second. He throws a pick six in a very costly time at the game, and walks over to the Stanford sideline pointing to himself. The very next drive he takes the Cardinals all the way down the field, dicing apart the Trojan defense to tie up the game and ultimately led his team to the win in OT.

That's the type of intangibles about this guy that make him ever so special.

Ryan Broyles is now officially out for the year with an ACL tear. Going to be interesting to see how fast he is able to heal, and how much his stock may fluctuate.

 

[TTN2810]

That sucks for him, a lot. I would definitely not take a WR with his status pre injury and earlier than the third round, after a knee injury.

 

[kam.]

That boi Justin Blackmon on TV now..

Time to watch him kill some dudes.

 

[Mooche]

Robert Griffin III is really filling up quick now.

 

[Elite]

I want him if he's available at the Jets pick lol

I love RG3

 

[Mooche]

Whoops. I couldn't edit my post. The bandwagon*

I really love him as a prospect. He's constantly moving up my rankings, and is making me change how I have the QBs lined up right now. He is looking to pass and sling that ball first, and he's got one hell of an arm to let that ball go. That throw he made at the end of the OU game last night was just on a rope, in a perfect spot.

I don't follow college football very much so who is a o-lineman that lions could go after in the draft? Although if there is someone that is better that is available we would draft them instead lol even if its a position we don't need

You guys would have to trade up but Matt Kalil and Jonathan Martin are the prizes of the draft O-Line wise. Both going to be stud LTs. Matt Kalil is the reason Tyron Smith was playing RT at USC and Tyron was a Top 10 pick. Riley Reiff is a big-time OT prospect too.

Other than that David DeCastro is a nice guard that you guys could realistically get.

I'm still not completely sold on Martin. He's a very good talent, but he has questionable technique. I think he really relies on his size at times, and I just haven't seen big time performances in big time games from him. He was absolutely man handled at times against the Trojans in Southern California.

Kalil I agree is a very solid LT. He's the "lock" of the Draft at this point. I really like Reiff from Iowa. He's a very tough and physical Hawkeye type of tackle.

DeCastro is probably my favorite OL out of all the prospects. I just love his style. He's so powerful in the running game, and he really likes to bully his man and completely finish his blocks. His value is a little bit lower due to the fact he is purely a guard, but he's still going to be a very nice player for a team on Sunday.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Devon Still is playing his way into 1st round territory.

 

[TTN2810]

Am I the only one who isn't gaga over Barkley right now? He's a good leader, good arm but not great, but his deep ball is really inconsistant. He hit a few against Oregon, but throughout the year he's missed on a lot, and other than the Oregon game (which he did look great), I haven't been overly impressed with his accuracy in general. It's good, but not to the level of others. My hunch tells me right now, he's going to turn out like other recent USC QB's, like Palmer, Leinart, and Sanchez. Not saying he can't be great, and I'll have to watch more, but right now that's how I feel. Am I the only one?

 

[elcheato]

I'd take him over Colt

 

[TTN2810]

After tonight I'd take anyone ahah. You are right, I hadn't really watched a whole Browns game this year until tonight.

 

[elcheato]

Not many have, not sure why someone would want to watch the Browns. Their offense is something out of the 1920s.

Anyone else have an opinion on Barkley?

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Anyone else have an opinion on Barkley?

I like him, I think he will be a good NFL QB.

Rather have him than Landry Jones.
