DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION ***THE OFFICIAL 2015 NFL 1st Round draft thread ***

[I.M. Fletcher]

@DougKyedNESN: Belichick refers to Dominique Easley as being 260 pounds twice. That's interesting. Listed at 290.

If that ends up being true, no wonder they felt the need to get some extra beef inside.

If Easley is 260, he's a sub package player.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

The Colts and Broncos failed so hard tonight I'm not sure who I would take in a head to head vs Jets.

A combination of Wilkerson, Richardson, Williams, Harrison on the DL with Revis taking out the #1 WR. Peyton doesn't have the arm strength and Luck doesn't have the patience.

I'm surprised the Jets pick is getting panned. They got arguably the best player in the draft, they'll get him on the field. They essentially never have to blitz to get pressure and they actually have a secondary now.

Draft Winners:

Jets
Browns (strange..)
Pats

Draft Losers:

Colts
Broncos
Ravens

I have steelers as winners too, unfortunately

I'd say it's fairer to say Round One losers/winners opposed to Draft. There's plenty of drafting left. For instance, the Colts (if they're smart), could still draft Jarrett, Goldman, Phillips, Davis etc.

Personally, I think it's funny they went WR over a clear fit and need but what the hell do I know?

These 3 guys in the video are enamoured with the Patriots pick of Brown.

Chris Simms is in the video, but gives tons of praise

I hope they're right because that's about as positive as it gets.

"Blue" trait ?? LOL

Colts doing exactly what they did with Manning. All offense and no defense. Apparently, they still haven't learned from the one and done's and constant smashing in the post season year after year.

Combine this with the deflate gate nonsense, the Pats will put 50+ points on the Colts.

I'm no Polian fan but there's really no comparison between him and Grigson. Grigson is a moron.

It'll be funny if Dennard remembers he's a starting caliber CB and Butler continues to develop. Arrington normally destroys Hilton so there's three of their pass catchers potentially gone. Good thing the Patriots don't have an All Pro quality Safety to patrol the deep portion of the field...

Ok, a trade that makes sense, in terms of fixing today's round 1 "blunders" (My position on the Jets is that it's a redundancy more than a blunder, but this still fits):

T.Y. Hilton to the Jets
Muhammad Wilkerson to the Colts

"The Broncos select... Marcus Mariota"

John Elway and the Broncos select... John Elway.

Goes to show who is really making the picks. Colts are so lucky Manning's neck injury took place the year Luck was coming out.

I really hope the Titans don't ruin my boy Marcus(love that kid Quack Quack). I am for sure going to Gillette Dec 20 to see Marcus and Tommy play.

Now I'm getting pretty mad about this draft....



...hmmm...wonder what's on sports tv tonight?..

It would certainly make sense, as an argument could be made that both teams took players at positions of strength. I hope something like this doesn't happen though, as my concern is that it would strengthen both rival opponents.

"Blue trait" = getting your ass whipped by 25+ points every time you play N.England.

 

[fnordcircle]

Is "Blue Trait" anything like "Brown Streak"?

 

[Joker]

Bowels seems like Rex Jr. , loading up on DT's...and they're all real happy, goody goshdarnit Jet brothers...I'm sure Coples is gonna LOVE 12-14 DNP's while Big Mo gets pushed off the back page for Shelrich chest thumper. Bad movie....endless bad bad movie...

Yes...they're both BAD PUNS
