I don't know. Has he any experience snapping the ball? My first thought was no, too big.
I think Martin and Ritchburg will be off the board, so I am just looking at other potential fits. Swanson is probably the best choice but not until later in the draft.

wesley Johnson and John Urschel are really good fits. Borg had a source saying the Pats are looking at an "intelligent OL" which fits Urschel perfectly. I would be fine with Swanson though.
 
This is a possibility - Houston is going to trade out of #33 to SF for #56 and #61, SF takes a Lee, Matthews, or another WR and then Houston sends #56 to NE for Mallett.

Thoughts?

I am concerned that Wesley Johnson at 6’5 ½” is too tall to play center at the next level.

Yes please. Perfect spot for a TE.
 
56 – ASJ or Amaro
62 – Martin or Richburg
93 - Martavis Bryant (I think he is going to slide)

Really like the first two picks. What do you see in Bryant? I ask because I've been burned before on a player like him in Stephen Hill. I wanted the Pats to take him in rd. 1, woops.

We need a god please make it so rating.

I like Bryant’s upside at #93, I think he is a very raw player but he has potential to be a Randy Moss type player (not as good of course), he is very explosive as his 39” vertical and 10’4” broad jump indicate. I agree Bryant is a risky player, which is why I would not take him earlier than #93, but as a late third round pick, I think he is worth a chance.

I wouldn't count out a pass rusher at 62 or a combo linebacker/pass rusher like Van Noy. I like Ellington/Landry or Norwood for the third round WR.

I like Aaron Lynch and Terence Fede as pass rushers later in the draft personally; I do not view Easley as just an inside player so I think that him combined with the Smith signing and the development of Buchanan puts us in a solid position where we can look at a developmental player later on.

I would not be made though if what you said happened.

I think Landry is going to go in the next two rounds.
 
BTW what a draft by the Rams getting what will likely turn into the best offensive lineman in the draft and the best interior pass rusher in Robinson and Donald. Then they still can add an impact player at 44 today. NFC West is going to be scary.

In terms of receiving ability alone, Landry is the best WR in this draft, he's just let down by a lack of athleticism. I agree that Easley may be enough for the DL but if BB really is 2007-ing this defense then a pure pass rusher might be a good move. Not sure about Aaron Lynch though..but you know how I feel about Fede.

And Buccanon to partner PP and Honey Badger in the Cards defensive backfield. One of my favourite moves of the night.
 
I'd be pretty psyched if either Amaro or ASJ were there at the time we picked.
 
With the talent still on the board, it's going to be like re-running picks 15-32 again. Tonight could be a special one.

Assuming they had the chance, I would have taken the Bills' Watkins offer had I been STL. Go to 9, you can still get Lewan or any of the CB/S and get the Bills' #1 next year. Great deal for CLE IMO and I'd have done it if I were STL, get a good player and ANOTHER #1 from RGIII deal.

How so? I mean I know there is a ton of talent still on the board but what are you referring to specifically?
 
God! I hope not:

Speaking of the Patriots, rumors have begun to emerge that the franchise notorious for trading down may actually trade up in the (second) round for a shot at McCarron.

This comes from ProFootballTalk. For some reason i'm having trouble pasting into the forum. Help!

From a draftnik perspective and general interest.
