how is it possible such a talented players career is over only one second after his name was announced?

Thought he wanted garrett

i heard the FO wants garrett and hue wants trubisky at all costs. wouldnt surprise me him being a qb whisperer. 

i could have that backwards though

hue stood up looking mad. theyre taking garrett

its been real boys and girls! sad as all hell that this is our last draft together.

@JoeyFlex5 dude you can't steal my thunder. Only I get to post chaos causing fake reports. Copy cat. 

we should all do it though. professional reporters have been doing it all week

why cant this damn thing start at 7

barnett said in a interview his favorite food is crab legs... 

pull an elway to any team but the ravens and get showered with the best crabs of all!

That depends who we draft tonight. See you in the raiders fan forums if we draft peppers 

last big forums moment. 

figured id start it with a bang

hey guys. i was joking about the trade up.

I swear to god if we waste picks on that bust I'm getting banned from the forum.

it will be a lifetime sentence even shorter than aaron hernandez's

walter football for a few weeks now has projected corey davis to fall to the second due to his injury. walters latest mock has us taking him at 47... 

few years of gaining credibility and then BAM they throw it all away in one draft season

LOOOOOOOOOL

if we trade up in the first round for the first time in idk how long, and we take cam, im becoming a redskins fan. 

its been reported that the ravens have talked to the eagles about trading up out of fear that the colts take cam robinson.

This just in... apparently Ravens planning to take Jabrill Peppers as he's top 5 on their board and almost guaranteed to be there. 

 

Commence meltdown. 

 

Lacanfora just reported live on local Philly station 97.5 the fanatic. 

ill believe it when i see it. 

and while i like peppers........................... 

i will call for ozzies resignation. what the hell sense would this make. we have 2 very high caliber safeties, and a very good backup safety, and even if weddle retires that leaves us with 2 strong safeties. before the tony jefferson signing i would be ecstatic, but i will absolutely flip if this happens.

God I hope this isn't a smokescreen 

It isn't. We'll have full intentions of taking Davis but the colts will take him for absolutely no reason at all because WRs are all that matters in Indy. 

It will be like watching a rich person win the lottery that many poor people bought tickets for. It will be like watching a redskins fan go to a ravens steelers game when you couldn't afford tickets. Like y u do dis to me. 

My bold statement for the night. Ravens will say "no need to trade up, our guy is there and there is no way the colts take him because they have enough WRs... and our plan fails

This has gotta be a smokescreen

ill say ill be guilty of it if the pick is taco charlton - i of course will eventually be able to turn myself onto it but it might take longer than usual in some cases - it of course all depends on who's left on the board when we pick

I actually would be on board. Not rooting for taco at 16, but if he's the pick I'm on board. I can see his potential pretty easily, guys that big shouldn't have such a quick first step and closing speed

Thats why i do.

I usually give myself a minute or 2 to be upset; curse a few times and blow off some steam....

But then i let my better judgement prevail and decide that if the professionals felt that was the better pick then ill trust it until proven otherwise. The reality is even with all the info in the world and the best personnel evaluators on your team -- the draft is still largely a crap shot, a lottery of sorts. You get a few tickets, earlier ones have bigger jackpots and much higher percentage of at least winning some money.... but they all still bust at a more than 50% ratio.
 

Id rather get on board, be optimistic and root for our pick to succeed than hold on to some silly notion that im better at picking prospects than our team... or some grudge just in the hopes that in 3 years our pick will fail, the team will be worse just so i can say "I told ya so"

though it seems theres quite a few around here who prefer to do the latter

No matter how bad I might hate a pick I'll always take the good and run with it. Didn't like that we took Mosley over HHCD but I had been a huge Mosley fan since his first year and knew how good he was. I didn't like taking perriman over jones and Malcom brown but I looked at the spectacular catches he's made and tried my hardest to disregard the drops and now I'm a huge perriman fan. Wasn't big on the correa pick but I also began to think as the draft got closer that spence was overrated and it's possible he's already maxed his potential and correa hasn't even begun to see his. 

If we take cam Robinson over Corey Davis or some others, I'll be pissed, but I'll understand how much of a boost he can bring out run game if he's allowed to play guard.

This is meant to be a rumour mill. All i see is prospect discussion. Have any rumours been posted the past 8 pages?

Reliable sources report that purplehorseman may be Winchester and it's been confirmed that neither are fans of Barnett

Here's another one.

Let's say Fournette, Barnett, Hooker and Williams are there.

Who you taking?

 

 

(And suggestion for this thread -- make it about anyone suggesting their own personal "Who ya taking" scenarios for ongoing discussion... not to hi jack OP though)

That's impossible. I'd really wanna nail the pick so I'd be scared to take a risky guy, which makes fournette and Barnett attractive, but I think hooker is a top 5 talent despite the injury and lack of experience 

I'll post where I want because there's no rules where there is no future. 

Follow me to the dark side posters, make a new thread for every comment you have! No comments, all OPs!

Not a lot of people want to hear this, but if we have any shot of having just an average O line, I think the first pick needs to be OL. 

There are basically no starting material players past round 1. After round 1, they will be developmental and probably not ready to start.

Dion dawkins, dan feeney, pat elflein, Taylor moton, bisnowaty, Erik magnuson, Ethan pocic, these guys could all be very solid starters
