2012 NFL Draft Thread.

[swoosh]

Mo Claiborne is a fucking stud. And I can't stand LSU.

 

[kam.]

I. Want. Justin. Blackmon.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Familiarize yourselves with Bernard Pierce.

 

[TTN2810]

Pierce puts up crazy stats, but IMO he's nothing special. He's got some power, but does not have very good speed, and he doesn't have a sharp cut. Like I said, he's got some power, but he's nothing I'm wowed about.

 

[Yankees2772]

Familiarize yourselves with Silas Redd, he's a fucking boss.

 

[Mooche]

Quinton Coples is going to be a bust.

 

[Hurricane Season]

He held his own against Brandon Washington yesterday.

He held his own against Brandon Washington yesterday.

Screams Bowers V2 to me. He shows up when he wants to, and even with that he isn't as dominant as Bowers was. He doesn't look that good to me against the run and at the point of attack either.

He's not a top five talent.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Corey Lemonier is going to be a monster.

He's a true soph though, so he won't be eligible for this years draft.

 

[TTN2810]

I'm in love with Kendall Wright. The plays he makes for Griffin III are just amazing. This guy is really under-rated. He's a little under-sized at 5-10, but he plays like he's 6'2, and runs like a RB. He's solid too at 200, and he has fantastic hands and athleticism. He's probably tied for my 3rd ranked WR, with Floyd, if not ahead of Floyd.

 

[TTN2810]

Wow, this died quick.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Draft talk doesn't really start to heat up until February.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Unless your team is bad lol

 

[elcheato]

So, I can't wait for the draft

Trent Richardson /story

Will be the only 1st round RB in this year's class, yes.

I think there are some outside chances that guys can shoot up and improve their stock at the RB position, but the fact of the matter is that they are no longer valued that high in the eyes of people in the NFL.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Dwayne Allen is a first round talent.

Tight end isn't exactly a premium position, so it's hard to find a team that will take him that early, but I think a team picking late in the 1st that doesn't have a ton of needs could go BPA, and take him. Best tight end in this class by a very wide margin.

Which is kind of shocking to me. But I think, not including, there are some guys who come out of nowhere, the 1st round backs are normally much more talented than the other backs.

 

[elcheato]

And they still break down as fast, and have as short a shelf. Not to mention it's a passing league now. Drafting RBs in the first round unless they are supreme talents like Adrian Peterson isn't a great idea. I wouldn't put Trent Richardson on Peterson's level but he is as dynamic as they come so you could explain that one.

 

[Mooche]

Sammy Watkins isn't coming out this year, but that kid is a baller for Clemson.

Wow.
