DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION The 2017 NFL Draft, Day One Game-Day Thread

[mosslost]

Pats were never going to trade JG unless some team stupidly overpaid. No-one should be surprised that didn't happen.

I don't think even a single first was offerred.

Or valued

Or the patriots value jimmy G alot more.

 

[manxman2601]

Agreed, but still needs to be an overwhelming offer.

There's two players who I think BB might be very interested in. If they're both still on the board tomorrow, maybe that'll get him interested.

GREAT PICK

 

[long distance]

As projected .. 2 years for CLE to figure out his position
when they give up they give him to Bill for proper use..

 

[sb1]

I don't think even a single first was offerred.

Agreed. I wouldn't have either.

Tony Pauline said that Butler might be used in a trade up into the second.

That honestly may make more sense since the trading team has to pay Butler a bunch of dough right away. A first just may not be justifiable, ultimately.

Assuming Conley's innocent -- a big assumption, but all signs seem to be pointing that way -- then it's a very good thing that a false accusation isn't ruining something he's worked so hard for.

But still, gutsy move, Raiders.

I'm really struggling with this one. If he is innocent, then yes, it's great for him that he didn't fall like Collins did a few years ago, but personally I could never get on board with that choice. And I say that after writing these posts earlier this year:

Budda Baker v Desmond King v Chidobe Awuzie

They're both f***ers.

WINNER WINNER

CHICKEN DINNER

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

Or valued

That's why BB is a step ahead of these gms when you see teams trading for the trubiskys and the watsons.

no overwhelming offers were ever coming for Jimmy

 

[supafly]

And the starting QB for the NE Patriots in 2018 is.....JG. Let that sink in.

How are you coming to that conclusion?

Lots of options for both team and player moving forward.

Tony Pauline said that Butler might be used in a trade up into the second.

What did Butler do to get on BB's **** list? There's this perception that he's expendable, but I'd rather have him on the team.

You're the betting man, kiddo. Make it happen.

Are they sober in SEA?
If they don't go OL then I give up..

DESMOND KING SUCKS REAM

 

[primetime]

I hate that people give these cases the guilty until proven innocent social media treatment. It's disgusting.

NFL teams have to weigh a consideration that he might get arrested and serve jail time.

he waited to 199 to draft the GOAT. The draft is a joke. Pats have 1 first round pick (Solder I think) and 1 second rounder (Gronk) on Offense and all the rest are 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and UFA.

It's a great fit but I wouldn't rule out Ramczyk or Lamp.
