DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION The NFL Draft, Day 1, Round 1, thread

[upstater1]

Marquise Lee will be a stud in this league.

 

[Rob0729]

The guy has top ten talent with a scary injury history. But the good news is that repaired ACLs are stronger than they were before they were replaced.

 

[DaBronxPats14]

Did you notice how not one commentator talked about Pats pick before and after. Marshall hater.

 

[MossWelkowski]

it's not a bad pick folks, lots of potential

They are trying to win a Super Bowl this year not trying to teach payers



Terrible pick

 

[SVN]

Denver is going to get Lee to replace Decker.

 

[ctpatsfan77]

I gave the Pats essentially zero chance of drafting Lee.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Top 10 or 15 pick if he didn't have the injuries.

disagree. he would have gone in the top 5 if it weren't for his knees.

 

[Bill Lee]

Really, with Lee on the board? Guess they aren't in a hurry to give Tom some weapons...

 

[tmajr3]

Jumped the gun on Easley almost like Tavon Wilson.

Two ACL injuries? Some of the guys saying its not a big deal were the same posters saying Gronk's career is over

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Denver is going to get Lee to replace Decker.

and how many super bowls has denver won with a great offense?

 

[Kontradiction]

I hope his knees hold up

He'll be wearing braces on both knees. If he's healthy, he's dominant. We'll see. I love him but I would have preferred the 2nd round. If he rounds back into form, we have pass rushers that can line up at both the 3 and 5 techniques.

 

[BradyToAmendola]

Terrible pick..ughhhhhhhhhh. Why couldn't we trade down and take ASJ? We don't have a TE that can catch passes!!

 

[SVN]

Peter King ?@SI_PeterKing 3m
Belichick and Florida. A marriage made in draft mediocrity.

 

[patchick]

One for one in Patchicks game. Oh yeah!

Me too.

Sometimes rumors that they love a player mean they love a player. The Pats were consistently said to be interested in Easley.

I'm sorry that Mayoclinic took off, he must be thrilled.

 

[BobDigital]

Roll of the dice. I am not dissapointed. I knew he was rising due to medical reports being positive and would not have made it past pick 40.

 

[Gronkandez]

it's not a bad pick folks, lots of potential

Sounds like the same thing people were saying about Ras-I Dowling

 

[ashley]

Hope he can stay healthy, would have liked to move back a few picks or picked Tuitt but it could have been much worse.

 

[patsinthesnow]

All I'll say:

Passing on Lee is passing on Allen all over again.

 

[Joker]

guess Hageman WAS off their board, eh?

wish they traded out ...

 

[RobAllan]

Amendola just burst a blood vessel in his eye reading the twitter feed. Gronk sat the pick out with a migraine, but will watch the draft next year if he thinks it's safe.

Hopefully the new kid's knees hold up better...

I'm actually joking for once. We probably overdrafted for a player (again) but I have a really good feeling about this. I hope he proves to be a stud.
