2013 NFL Draft

[nando714]

The guy Oakland had announcing for them i swear was a crack head lol joking of course but fitting

Rounds 4-7 my favorite part of the draft today

I'll be watching

Ps i like the Saints draft a lot. A steal in Armstead and Jenkins

Lets see what my cardinals do today? Maybe a QB? OLine and OLB for sure though today

[CanadianHalo]

Okafor is an interesting pick. Going to ask him to play outside linebacker. See how he does with that transition

[CanadianHalo]

With the Amini pick last year in round 2. I cannot stand this 4th round pick by Carolina. With oatton and rogers sitting on the board, give cam some help. Would have been happy with a safety as well.

[bloodbrother]

Wooow GB trades back into the 4th and takes RB Johnathan Franklin. Love it. Lacy and Franklin now in their backfield. Definitely revamping their RB situation

[CanadianHalo]

Lol well atleast one of us is happy. How about the 49ers lattimore and patton in the 4th, nice 4th round for them

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Niners are loading up which is to be expected considering how many picks they have but they're getting great value.  Lattimore might not do much in 2013 but in a year or two he could be a beast behind that O-line.  GB added 2 good RB's but it seems like overkill as some of their lack of success running is due to the line.  Regardless the niners, packers and even ravens have been making some nice picks. 

[bloodbrother]

Line play improved in the 2nd half. The problem is that when they had injuries to the line, they had NO depth to account for it and had to move players around the line, having them play out of position. They did just add 2 OL in the 4th so hopefully things will be better.

^ Haha! Nice, laughed when i saw that happen. Jags announced him as a RB, they honestly might as well give him a shot at QB. Gabbert is awful, was praying we would choose Cam over him and thank god we did

[Chuck]

My Seahawks continue to draft well. They get the top RB according to scouts at the bottom of the 2nd round after trading out with a few teams, tons of picks they made up after losing them for the Harvin trade. 

 

Really stoked on the Hawks.

Look out SF and the NFL. 

[CanadianHalo]

I liked the Simon and Jesse Williams picks for them in the 4th and 5th. Another big CB to go with Browner and Sherman.

Yep, way to go panthers... Draft another LB. Franchise is a joke.

[nando714]

Arizona drafted Ryan Swope could be a Welker type if.healthy still good value in the 6th

I like the Stephan Taylor and Andre Ellington picks

Could always use RB depth when u have Mendenhall and Ryan Williams both with injuries in the past

Theres a fine line between depth and a crowd, the panthers crossed that line with taking Barner. Better cut DWill now i guess.

But all u guys (zona,GB,Sea) have had great drafts in my opinion.

7th round right now and da'rick rogers still hasnt been drafted. He must be a serious head case and had horrible interviews to go undrafted, because he's talented.

I read a article on pro football talk saying Carolina is drafting based on the salary cap and not on a need base

I thought barner would have already been gone. Surprised he fell so late.

[CanadianHalo]

Yeah i saw that article, im just butt hurt they didnt take a reciever or safety, since it was such a deep wr and s draft.

Panthers at Cardinals week 5, hope to either make it out to that game or the panthers game the week after in minny

[OneLove22]

Cowboys had a very good value draft outside of the first round, but I was OK with them reaching a bit to get the center they wanted after everybody else was taken.

Later rounds we did really well.  Joseph Randle, Terrance Williams, and Holloman were really good picks.  Garrett said they plan on running two TE sets similar to the Patriots with Escobar/Witten.  

[nando714]

Terrance Williams and Joseph Randle can be difference makers

[CanadianHalo]

Panthers just signed Robert Lester, finally got my safety. What do you guys think of him?

[CanadianHalo]

Cardinals just signed Tony Jefferson

[CanadianHalo]

Bills sign Da'rick

[bloodbrother]

Dude must be one huge POS if he went undrafted despite his talent

[Brandon]

They said the same thing about Burfict last year and he beasted.

[bloodbrother]

Yeah, going undrafted like that could work as a bit of a humbling experience for some of these guys. Bills are a good landing spot for him since they don't have anything outside of Stevie Johnson

[Brandon]

I think that and leadership in the locker room. With Burfict he is here from Corona Centennial then onto ASU and he always had behavior issues. There was some story about drafting him and how his first season went.

On the undrafted tip, KC picked up Tyler Bray who was third round talent and I thought would be grabbed in the 4th. We will see how that works out. All reports are good on him, but then you wonder why he went undrafted so no expectations.

[CanadianHalo]

@VolRumorMill: All you young kids who think you can just act a fool an get by on talent alone... I give you Tyler Bray and DaRick Rogers.

One OC Register article had the Rams tied for the best draft (A) with the 49ers and Vikings.

 

Austin and Bailey, along with the trio of returnees that features a future rising star in Chris Givens, give the Rams a wealth of receiving which minimizes losing Amendola to FA. 

LB Alec Ogletree could potentially have as big of an impact on defense as Janoris Jenkins had during his 2012 rookie season.

T.J. McDonald upgrades the secondary.

 

A potential steal may be 5th round pick, RB Zac Stacy.   He is just 5-8 but also a rock solid 215, who gets downhill very well and played against tough competition for Vandy in the SEC.    The question is, can he float out of the backfield and catch passes like former RB Stephen Jackson did?
