Official 2008 NFL Draft Discussion

This years 3rd and Chargers 2nd next year for Jason Taylor? Just a though.

Someone just said Colts will take mario mannigham.

I think that's a mistake. He's too dumb to understand the Colts' offense. I think Manning will get very frustrated with him early on. He certainly won't be a replacement for a brainy receiver like Marvin Harrison.

Goff anyone?

I really like him, but it would seem strange to see them select three LB's this high in the draft.

The Colts selected Wheeler, who should be good for them.

 

[Steamer86]

Corner? King or Branch?

 

[groundgame]

I smell another trade at 94

 

[KevinFaulk-33]

Are we on the clock?

Theyre taking forvere again. Might be another trade.

 

[Watson's IQ]

Corner? King or Branch?

I would go corner here as well. I'd probably say Branch, but only because I have a soft spot for UConn guys.

took QB O'Connell. Brady worried?

 

[JoePats]

Kevin O'Connell, QB San Diego State...Tom Brady insurance. Guess BB feels quite good about what they did defensively and is not panicking about the OL.

 

[primetime]

Kevin O'Connell... not a bad pick at this point. I think this is the end of Matt Cassel's NFL career, however.

 

[sebman2112]

Wow, I didn't expect that pick...

Kevin O Connell QB, San Diego St.

 

[SeanBruschi54]

Damn i wanted to add more depth somewhere. I guess QB really is bad behind Tom.

 

[Watson's IQ]

I don't really see the point of this pick. We could have picked a project quarterback who will never set foot on the field for the Patriots later.

 

[ATippett56]

Damn! Jonathan Goff was still on the board!

 

[Carpentier]

Doesn't make sense to me. Drafting a backup in the third round.

Doesn't make sense to me. Drafting a backup in the third round.

Well it's not like there are any positions that need starters, either. So they were going to be drafting a backup somewhere. Might as well be at QB. Brady was injured last playoffs, and that injury could have been more serious. Do you really feel safe with Matt Cassel stepping in? The front office obviously doesn't.

 

[Seymour93]

Doesn't make sense to me. Drafting a backup in the third round.

Do you really expect a 3rd rounder to come in and start his rookie season? On this team, with this amount of quality depth?

 

[jefmblrd]

Jaws on ESPN and Mike Mayock and Mike Lombardi on NFL Network love the O'Connell pick. I was surprised when they made it but maybe they got a player.

 

[JoePats]

Jets trade down with Green Bay
