2009 NFL Draft Thread(Stafford goes #1 to the Lions) - Page 10

DeToxRox · 04-25-2009, 04:39 PM

As a Lions fan, I'll say it now:

If Oher, Maulauga (who I am iffy on even still), Brown or Jenkins are gone, and Maclin's there, you have to take him. he's BPA at that point.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:39 PM

Saints need defense here too but I'm afraid they go Wells. I think Wells will be a good pro but come on, get some D Saints.

Philliesfan980 · 04-25-2009, 04:39 PM

You guys should just follow it on the draftcast on ESPN.com. Who needs all that BS commentary by those morons anyway.

I find it kind of amusing that people are bitching about the reality show nature of seeing the call coming in to the player (which delivers the information you theoretically want as quickly as possible) instead of waiting to reveal that information in pseudo dramatic fashion at the podium.

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:40 PM

Fuck you ESPN.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:41 PM

Alright, now that my second favorite team picked (and well IMO), it's a long wait till the Steelers.

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:41 PM

Great pick by the Saints here.

Between the hair and the roids, Cushing is Lattimore from the Program.

DeToxRox · 04-25-2009, 04:46 PM

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:49 PM

So, Maclin to the Chargers, eh?

DaddyTorgo · 04-25-2009, 04:51 PM

whoa - larry english eh?

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

Hmm. Interesting pick by the Chargers.

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

The first big shocker of the draft...

Neuqua · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

Woot! Larry English! NIU!

Thomkal · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

wow that was a surprise, most draft experts had him going to the Cardinals

DeToxRox · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

English fits the Chargers well. They need a rush especially when I think Merriman could be gone soon.

bulletsponge · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

SD just drafted someone to be a backup.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:52 PM

English is a bit of a reach but still should be a solid player.

Solecismic · 04-25-2009, 04:53 PM

I think that was a panic pick after Cushing went. English isn't going to pan out at the next level.

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:53 PM

This is incredible. The Vikings could get some huge value at #22 with Oher.

DeToxRox · 04-25-2009, 04:53 PM

I assume Maclin to Cleveland, then Braylon is officially a Giant

Racer · 04-25-2009, 04:53 PM

I heard rumors a month or so ago about Atlanta being interested in Larry English, so it's probably not really that big of a reach.

Edit: I'm surprised he went in front of Everette Brown, but I guess that's why I'm not an NFL GM or scout.

JonInMiddleGA · 04-25-2009, 04:53 PM

Chargers front office must have some loooooong arms, 'cause that's a reach.

At least other teams in the AFC West aren't nailing their picks either.

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:54 PM

Browns taking Wells here?

Solecismic · 04-25-2009, 04:56 PM

Hearing some serious rumbling and we're under a severe thunderstorm warning. Already saw a couple of small trees down from the first round of this earlier. I'm afraid I might not have power much longer. Crap.

Lathum · 04-25-2009, 04:57 PM

lol, Browns make another deal, this thime with the Bucs

We had that storm here for 30 minutes or so. It got pretty loud but it moved fast.

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:58 PM

Wow, Browns are trade crazy today.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:58 PM

I liked Matthews until he pimped himself out for draft day.

I hate definitive statements like that before a player ever steps on the field. Of course I do the exact same thing, such as with Stafford, so I guess I'm a hypocrite.

bulletsponge · 04-25-2009, 04:58 PM

ohh my, TB moved up. lol i smell a bust incoming

MrDNA · 04-25-2009, 04:58 PM

Haha, Browns trade AGAIN. Loving it.

edit... for a 6th - meh.

I'm going to say it again about Freeman, who is a huge reach at 17.

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:59 PM

Wow. Interesting for the Browns...

And could the Bucs have waited a few more picks for their guy? Or did they think the Broncos were going to take Freeman?

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 05:00 PM

A 6th?! That's IT?!

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 05:00 PM

Really don't like this pick.

And maybe a few bucks saved from a couple of spots difference.

DeToxRox · 04-25-2009, 05:01 PM

A 6th isnt bad considering they want Maclin and no chance TB or Denver takes him. Now if someone jumps into Denvers spot it sucks. But I doubt it.

Thomkal · 04-25-2009, 05:01 PM

Byron Leftwich is very sad he signed with the Bucs now

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 05:02 PM

FIVE picks away for the Vikings... can they seriously get Maclin? Trade with the Broncs..
