2012 NFL Draft Talk

[JeffHCross]

Reaction on Sirius XM NFL Radio about the Patriots drafting Illinois CB Tavon Wilson with the 48th pick:
"Where'd you have him on your board?"
"Free Agent."
"8th Round."
"Day 3."
"Okay, I had him Day 4."

A couple things to consider. The guaranteed money is no longer an issue. Luck's contract will only be 4 years and about $25M. The days of a high bust ruining you for years because of money are over.

You guys know I'm a huge stats guy. I can't WAIT to see how quickly people figure out that Gil Brandt's old Draft Value Chart (what the teams, allegedly, all still use to determine the value of trades) is completely out the window with the new rookie wage scale. Trade City, baby!

Fucking Steelers. Cam Heyward last year ... Mike Adams this year. Thank goodness I stop paying attention to guys once they leave school.

Watch your mouth, Clowns fan.

I just hope that SOB can stay away from the fucking weed. If so, the Steelers O-line is now officially the strongest unit on the team.

I'm less a Browns fan than I am a Steelers/Ravens hater.

Oh my god, Anthony Carter looks old. I know he's 52, but he looks 82!

There's alot to hate in the success of those 2, and little to root for in the other, so that makes sense.

Honestly, I hate the Ravens more for what they could have been, versus their success.

The Steelers I just hate.

The Jacksonville Jaguars select a punter in Round 3. "Bryan Anger is the highest punter selected since 1995." Yeah, there's a reason for that.

[SmoothPancakes]

Jacksonville Jaguars, what the hell? A punter in the third round? Really? He better one HELL of a punter. And does that signal that the Jags are raising the white flag already and plan on doing a LOT of punting in the 2012 season?

russell wilson's fiance is pretty good looking too.

wilson is a seahawk!

Liking that Ronnie Hillman pick by Denver. So far a decent draft by the Broncos. Hillman fills a need in running back, same with Derek Wolfe at DT, and Brock Osweiler is planning for the future. It fills the open and empty backup position, give him 3-5 years behind Manning to learn, work on his skills, get some garbage time here and there in games, and if he pans out as a QB, when Manning's ready to retire, Osweiler is ready to step in at starter.

Tarvaris Jackson's days as a starter are done, at least in Seattle.

Uhm, Matt Flynn.

Wife, actually. Lucky guy.


At the exact moment that Mike Mayock is saying on NFL Network that Brandon Brooks is the "highest picked non-combine invite we've had in a while", Gil Brandt (GIL BRANDT!) is saying on the SiriusXM NFL Network that Brooks is the second non-combine invite pick tonight alone. Oops.

they were done when we signed matt flynn. drafting wilson bumps tavaris to 3rd string or cut.

That's what I'm saying, between Matt Flynn and Russell Wilson, Tarvaris Jackson has no chance to ever start again in Seattle. He's a permanent backup/third string now for the Seahawks.

[JeffHCross]

He's a permanent backup/third string now for the Seahawks.

Or he's cut. Lot of teams don't carry 3 on their active roster.

[baseballplyrmvp]

tavaris will be cut. pete has a man crush on josh portis

Or that too. But yeah, that's what I was getting at with that initial post, with that draft pick, Jackson's days are done. He has no chance of ever seeing the field as a starter in Seattle again, if he even is kept on the team. He basically has become the Brady Quinn of the Seahawks. Doomed to forever 3rd string if the team keeps him.

That's kinda fucked up. Poor guy.

Yeah, but at least he doesn't have to be a Bengal.

You know, I wonder about this ... he just got picked up by the Bengals at 84. I saw him rumored to the Bengals as high as 53. I actually wonder if it wasn't a prank, but a total, dumb mistake.
