Draft Day(s) Thread 2012

[TNPatsFan]

I dont like Streeter. But I love Criner, Childs and Jarius Wright and Jones.

[ElectricEye]

Really wouldn't mind doing a buy low on Jared Crick coming up....but that would make sense. It's all about crazy. Had to forget some of the tape I've seen on him. There's been times where he's looked unblockable.

[Wootylicous]

What if Lamar Miller is there at our pick ? I would take him in a heartbeat

[ElectricEye]

I would probably kill myself if we took a runningback. Just sayin'.

Me too. Him, Hosley, Childs and Boykin are the ones that I'm hoping for.

I don't see the value in taking a RB for the Patriots. They have a nice, young, versatile group. They're set there. Could use depth, I guess.

[nepg]

Thank you, Bengals.

[ElectricEye]

I never quite got Sanu either. The third round isn't that bad for him, but I certainly wasn't buying what he was selling either.

[cmarq83]

Not Bad, I can deal with that

[ElectricEye]

Alright...that makes up for it a bit. Really, really like that pick. Projects very well to being a rush backer. The type of rush backer I prefer too.

[Razor]

I can live with it.

[Wootylicous]

LOVE this pick!

[ElectricEye]

Didn't test nearly as well as he was reputed to a few years ago, but he has some traits I really like. Really love high motor, active guys. Hustle can get you a long way. He's flashed the ability to finish at times too, which is something we haven't put enough emphasis on in years past.

I think we can say that Cunningham is as good as gone at this point now too.

Bold. Hell yea. With T. Scott, Ninko, C.Jones and Hightower. I'm not sure if he has a place on this team.


What are we looking at in rd 5? KR?

[cmarq83]

God he looks awful in this clip. Hopefully he's better than this

[ElectricEye]

I don't think we can afford to carry a dedicated kick returner. We obviously still need one, but we're going to have to find someone with some kind of positional value with the way the roster is currently constructed.

[Wootylicous]

Give me back that 8 minutes. Tavon Wilson...sigh

[ElectricEye]

Looks both slow and stiff. Limited, but that doesn't look anything like a second round player. But special teammzzz.

What about Joe Adams or Chris Rainey?

Love me some Joe Adams

[ElectricEye]

Rainey impressed me as a receiver at the Senior Bowl. Tracks the ball deep better than you would expect for that kind of player.

[Wootylicous]

Greg Childs.

[proshoota25]

day 2 sucked. horribly. tavon wilson? really? wtf. apparently 7 teams had him in for pre-draft visits/workouts, so teams saw something.... what ? idk lol...... and jake bequette, dont get me going. alot of ppl know that me and matt jones hate this guy.... underwhelming day 2. whats worse is that trade down was TERRIBLE.

sorry, big rant.

Hopefully we target a very good KR of WR/RB origin..... along with one extra OL body..... it would be cool to see us target alot of UDFAs.... like we usually do. we always put a strong emphasis with that.

[ElectricEye]

Not many full games of him online, but through one and a half it's absolutely depressing. No special qualities. Doesn't play as fast as he timed out(which was merely average to a slight tick above), looks stiff. Vulnerable looking player who can be beat a lot of different ways. It's a confounding pick in a vacuum, but considering the guys who were on the board and the sheer number of them who look drastically better than him, it just doesn't make any sense. It really wouldn't have surprised me if he went undrafted had we not pulled the trigger. It's going to be harder to find junior year games, which are probably the more interesting ones considering he was playing more safety than corner, but he got plenty of looks there this year and I'm not seeing anything to justify the selection.

[BradysKnee]

Usually pretty positive but Wilson looks pretty below average. Head scratcher. Of course he was on a pretty bad team and might be looking worse than he is. But still, his ceiling isnt high.
