David Wilson is a great player.

2nd best RB in the draft.

Though, I get what you mean about the line.
true. But its easier to find an effective RB later in the draft than to find an effective OL. Giants have drafted plenty of OL in the 2nd and 3rd rounds over the last few years and none have panned out.

Although my guess is the Giants wanted to bring in a RB more since Bradshaw has always had injury problems, which I can understand.

I don't get the Steelers one.

Is he pissed because fuck the Steelers?

Decastro was a great pick.

I don't get the Weeden hate, he was the best player in the draft.

Trent goes #3, the best non-QB in the draft, and the 28 year old QB, 22nd overall pick is getting all the questions directed at him at the presser.

Welcome to Cleveland.

I don't get why people feel like Weeden is so "ready". Sure, he's mature.. but he played in a spread. Even Tannehill is more pro ready cause he played in an NFL Offense.

Him being "ready" has more to do with having a strong arm and being accurate. He'll have to adjust, but hopefully it will be easier with Trent taking some of the pressure off.

I also don't think he can play until he's 40.

This is what will happen.

He'll be 29 once the season starts, takes 1 year to get use to the system and get comfortable. He'll play for about 2/3 years until Cleveland drafts another QB or signs one. I think he'll be much like Derek Anderson or Maybe a poor mans Rich Gannon.

I don't really think he can play until he's 40, but I would just think that he's taken an equal beating that a 22 year old has taken, so he should age well, at least I hope.

Him and Anderson have similar arms, but Weeden is 1000x more accurate. It's not even a question.

I'm just hoping for 5-7 solid years.

He still has a beating. He said he quit baseball I believe because he fucked his arm up so bad to where it still hurts when he throws a baseball to this day, Could happen any day now same injury with football. He has a lot of tear TBH.

701, if the Vikes are really looking for a CB to double as a KR, Brandon Boykin could be the guy in round 3.

He just said at his press conference his arm has never had pain from throwing a football. Throwing motions are completely different.

Yes I know he's said he feels comfortable throwing the football. But his arm still has a lot of tear on it.

Apparently the Browns really wanted to select Kendall Wright. They told Colt McCoy "no QB will be taken in the first round."

NFL = Not For Long.

At first when the Bengals picked Zeitler I was like who? Then found out he's never given up one sack in his collegiate career, feel better about it now.

Was hoping for DeCastro but I think I can settle for Zeitler, Wisconsin always produces good offensive lineman. To be able to get him and another pick in the third round, I'm not going to complain about it. Really need a WR and RB now. Maybe trade up, got the picks to do it.
