Giants pulling in a bit of a haul. They've even got a toolbox out of the deal so far.

1. DE Michael Johnson, Georgia Tech
2. DB Sean Smith, Utah
2. WR Louis Murphy, Florida
3. QB Chase "Toolbox" Daniel, Missouri
3. OLB Gerald McRath, Southern Mississippi
4. MLB Daniel Holtzclaw, Eastern Michigan
5. RB Antone Smith, Florida State

Had he been invited to the combine he wouldn't have run faster than Peerman. I WIN THE DRAFT!!!1!!!

Defense, defense, defense.

At 144, the Texans draft Mark Parson, CB, Ohio.

The Philadelphia Eagles select Darcel McBath, FS, Texas Tech.

The Eagles need to get some depth at safety now that Dawkins left for the Broncos.

The Bears are looking for more meat in the middle.

The Bears select Clinton McDonald-DT-Memphis

What position does he play?

DT

Sorry about that. Good lookin out CC.

Kind of surprised to still see this kid here. With the loss of Cato June and Derrick Brooks, the Bucs have major holes in their LB corps. This kid is an ideal fit for a Cover 2 Will Backer, and was a productive player in a major conference. He should be able to step in quickly and contribute.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers select, Jonathan Casillas, OLB, Wisconsin

That's what happens when you're sitting at work, on the clock, and completely unprepared to pick. You **** up and lose out on a perfect fit for your team.

I considered Casillas for the Redskins, but believe they need more help on their O-line and Vasquez was rated as the 7th best guard in the draft. Vasquez also graded out as a mid 3rd rounder. That was too much to pass on, IMO.

The Cowboys need some more backup help in their secondary. Corner depth is always important.

Dallas Cowboys select Domonique Johnson, CB, Jackson State

:cuss::cuss::cuss:

Now it's going to take me a minute.

The Philadelphia Eagles select Brandon Hughes, CB, Oregon State.

The Eagles need more help in the secondary and they originally wanted Domonique Johnson but the Cowboys suck monkey balls.

The Vikings need some depth at safety after the departure of Darren Sharper. They also need some help on the special teams. They also need some help at corner since they resigned Benny Sapp. With their 5th round pick the Minnesota Vikings select Joe Burnett, CB, UCF.

Ugh, nice pick.

I almost took him with my last choice but hoped he would last until the Phins in the 5th.

It's time for the Pats to replace Kevin Faulk with someone young, faster, and who is able to hit the homerun either on 3rd down, or in the return game.

The New England Patriots select Mike Goodson, RB, Texas A&M.

**** it. The Panthers GM goes on hiatus.

Falcons select Roger Allen, G, Missouri Western St.

Dolphins select Glen Coffee, RB, Alabama

I like Coffee as a developmental guy. He's got the frame to put on some more muscle and eventually be the complimentary back when Ricky Williams decides to retire to Goa and smoke weed on the beach all day.

We're getting late in the draft here coming to the end of the 5th round...the Colts don't have many needs and have addressed some very key issues so far...so with this pick the Colts finally decide it's time to get a real development project at QB instead of Jim Sorgi..so the Colts select a local product playing at a college in the same state..

Nate Davis, QB, Ball State

Check pick #79

Well good lord I didn't bother to look that high seeing as no one attended his pro day.

Ok with the issues that surround Joe Addai's ability to stay on the field the Colts select a back who can be a compliment to him thinking he will be more his junior year than senior year...

Arian Foster, RB, Tennessee

Goddammit.

I actually made that pick before the whole pro day fiasco. I'd take it back if I could.....

Shun, It's your pick, man!

Really wanted Ogletree. Disappointed he got drafted.

So the Giants turn to Utah once again for some help in their secondary.

The Giants select CB Brice McCain, Utah.

hahahahahahahahahhaha Mecca picked Nate Davis.

Everybody post your drafts so far so everybody else can see.

Giants

1. DE Michael Johnson, Georgia Tech
2. DB Sean Smith, Utah
2. WR Louis Murphy, Florida
3. QB Chase "Toolbox" Daniel, Missouri
3. OLB Gerald McRath, Southern Mississippi
4. MLB Daniel Holtzclaw, Eastern Michigan
5. RB Antone Smith, Florida State
5. CB Brice McCain, Utah

Saints

1. CB Malcolm Jenkins, Ohio State
4. OLB Zack Follett, California

The Carolina Panthers select Johnny Knox, WR, Abilene Christian

I'd say that's a good job finding value minus the MJ pick(not impossible though). Who would you have taken in Daniel's place?

I came thiiiiiiiiiiis close to selecting Knox. Guy apparently is lightning, but I've just heard nothing about him.

**** you :cuss: :cuss: :cuss:

Probably OLB Marcus Freeman from Ohio State.

I got Gerald McRath not too long after that, so I'm not too upset. McRath is very talented, he's just way undersized.

Ya, I thought about editing to say besides McRath, since he seems like good value.

Well I was going to take Knox with this pick and this pick with my last choice in the 5th but this guy gets moved up. Great hands, productive college receiver who I think can be a perfect slot guy who just makes big catches.

Dallas Cowboys select Jarett Dillard, WR, Rice

Here is the Cowboys picks:
2) William Moore, S, Missouri
3) Herman Johnson, G, LSU
4) Sammie Lee Hill, DT, Stillman
4) Sebastian Vollmer, OT, Houston
5) Domonique Johnson, CB, Jackson State
5) Jarett Dillard, WR, Rice

Cincinnati picks:
1) Everette Brown, DE, Florida State
2) Jamon Meredith, OT, South Carolina
3) Antonie Caldwell, C, Alabama
3) Shonn Greene, RB, Iowa
4) Cornelius Ingram, TE, Florida
5) Vance Walker, DT, Georgia Tech

Here you go fellas, BTW, nice pick on Knox. The Mangenius wanted him early in the sixth.

Browns
Rd 1 A. Curry, LB, W. Forrest
Rd 2 C. Barwin DE/OLB/TE, UC
Rd 2 B. Robiskie, WR, OSU (before Stallworth killed a guy)
Rd 4 K. Sheets, RB, Purdue

Vikings

Rd 1 A. Mack, C, Cal
Rd 2 P. Loadholt, T, OU
Rd 3 A. Magee, DT, Purdue
Rd 5 J. Burnett, CB/KR, UCF

I love what you've done for the Bengals. A draft like that would definitely improve their team in the long-term. Nice draft for the Bengals, man.

Agreed, very good CC, althought I'm a bit uninformed on some of the players. Sf, I like some picks but it's a bit hit or miss for me.

I agree about the bengals. nice work. A point that you addressed with your picks that most people miss is that the 'Nati was good when their O-line was good. Plus Brown's pass rush will help their good young secondary. Green will fit in nicely in their backfield and Ingram could be the pass catching threat that Carson has never had at TE.

At first I was really down on the Loadholt pick, I just don't think he's a 2nd rounder. But I'll admit he's a good fit for the vikings. Hope they realize they need to maintain an emphasis on mobile QB's if that's the case.

I feel the same way. The Browns holes are many and with only four picks so far it's tough to patch them all. With the Vikes fixing two holes on their O-line (C and RT) should make their rushing game unstoppable if Sage can throw the ball to the right team and not make 6 turnovers in the last 2 minutes. After that it was a tough call between Magee and M. Freeman OLB OSU in the third for the Vikes. I think Freeman would be and upgrade over Ben Leber at OLB but Magee might be a 3-technique terror at the next level. Burnett gives them some depth at corner with a guy who can also be a factor on special teams.

So far, these are how my drafts look...

Redskins picks:
1st round-Michael Oher, OT
3rd round-Brandon Gibson, WR
5th round-Louis Vasquez, Guard

Panthers picks:
2nd round-Fili Moala, DT
3rd round-Phillip Hunt, OLBer
4th round-Tyronne Green, Guard
5th round-Johnny Knox, WR

Steelers picks:
1st Round-Eben Britton, OT (selected By Marco Polo)
2nd Round-Chris Baker, NT (selected By Marco Polo)
3rd round-Rashad Jennings, HB (this is where I took over for Marco Polo)
4th Round-Jason Phillips, ILBer
5th Round-?????

Chiefs:

1. Mark Sanchez
3. Cody Brown
4. Gerald Cadogan
5. Cornelius Lewis

Bucs:

1. Beanie Wells
3. Coye Francies
4. Rhett Bomar
5. Jonathan Casillas

Patriots:

4. Jasper Brinkley
5. Mike Goodson

Lions:

5. David Bruton

I like a lot of those, Cody Brown's a good fit, good value. A bit uninformed on some, and you definitely got a little unlucky having so few picks in the early rounds.

Your draft for the Browns is pretty solid. It adds some players with huge upside and positions of a big need for them without jumping the gun too much. I think Barwin maybe was picked a tad too early, but you make up for it, by grabbing Sheets in the 4th round, IMO.

The Vikings, while it will seem unspectacular to some, should give them long-term help along their o-line and fill in some gaps with their first two picks. Magee should give them some depth, which, I think you could have saved for later rounds, but Burnett, could provide them with an upgrade in their return game, so I find that great value in the 5th.

Thanks guys on the Bengals. Them and Cowboys are nice mix for me. Cowboys are basically close to being a Super Bowl team so what I am trying to do for them is to build depth and replace some of the aging guys in a year or two with some prospects who could become great but are raw. Bengals I am trying to build that core around Palmer.

I like your draft for the Chiefs. I think Cadogan has a chance to be something special.

Eagles

1st round - Knowshown Moreno, RB, Georgia
1st round - Brandon Pettigrew, TE, Oklahoma State
2nd round - Robert Ayers, DE, Tennessee
3rd round - Xavier Fulton, OT, Illinois
4th round - Aaron Kelly, WR, Clemson
5th round - A.Q. Shipley, OC/OG, Penn State
5th round - Darcel McBath, FS, Texas Tech
5th round - Brandon Hughes, CB, Oregon State

Broncos

1st round - Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU
2nd round - Ron Brace, NT, Boston College
3rd round - Nate Davis, QB, Ball State
4th round - Brandon Willaims, DE/OLB, Texas Tech
5th round - Jason McCourty, CB, Rutgers
5th round - Worrell Williams, ILB, Cal

You got alot of help for the Eagles. Good job. There's alot of "name" players that you get well into the 2nd day.

I'm kind of regretting the Pettigrew pick for the Eagles and I'm definitely regretting the Nate Davis pick for the Broncos. At that time his pro day hadn't happened and Cuter hadn't been traded yet.

EDIT: If I had it all to do over again....I would have taken Ebon Britton with the 28th pick and Ramses Barden with the 85th pick.

I'm a fan of your Eagles picks. Moreno really seems like a spiritual successor to Westbrook and while I'm not a big Ayers fan, he isn't a bad pick in the 2nd. Even though you kind of want to change the pick, Fulton has the tools to develop into a starting LT given a few years. McBath could really suprise some people.

I'm a much bigger fan of my Dolphins draft than my Raiders picks to be honest. Maybe some underlying hatred blinded me.

Miami

1) Larry English DE/OLB
2) Duke Robinson OG
2) Louis Delmas S
3) Ramses Barden WR
4) Scott McKillop ILB
5) Glen Coffee RB

Yeah you actually kept stealing the players I wanted with that draft. I wanted Delmas and McKillop for the Broncos and Barden for the Eagles.

You probably could have gotten better value than a TE, but don't self yourself short, Pettigrew has the skillset to become upper-echelon at the position.

P23...

You've got to do an alternate of what you'd do now with the Bears picks.

Keep in mind, you don't have one of your fifths anymore.

I'll get right on that. Give me a minute.

So I get an extra 3rd....but I lose one of my 5ths. I'll give them my earliest 5ths just because.

Jags
1) Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech
2) Max Unger G/C, Oregon
3) Troy Kropog, OT, Tulane
4) Andre Brown, RB, North Carolina St
5) Mike Wallace, WR, Ole Miss

Jets
1) Darrius Heyward-Bey WR, Maryland
2) Jarron Gilbert, DE, San Jose State
3) Chase Coffman, TE, Missouri
4) Michael Hamlin, S, Clemson
4) Keenan Lewis, CB, Oregon St

Can't say I'm pleased with my Jags draft.

#12 - Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU - I would've liked for Rey-Rey to fall one more spot but since he didn't....I'll anchor the 3-4 for the next 8-10 years. I consider it a little bit of a reach for #12 but who else would I take here? Malcom Jenkins could be a thought because of the age and depth of the Bronco's CBs.

#18 - Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois - Yeah I know that Aaron Maybin is sitting there at #18 and he's ready to be picked but I don't see him as the player that some do. With Davis...the Broncos have their starter opposite of Champ Bailey.

#48 - Lawrence Sidbury, OLB, Richmond - Sidbury will team up with Dumerville to give the Broncos a nice passrush in the 3-4.

#79 - Ramses Barden, WR, Cal-Poly - Brandon Marshall is either suspended or injured and Eddie Royal can't carry the team by himself. Orton/Simms are going to need another tall possession receiver to throw too. Marshall and Royal will allow Barden to ease into the starting offense.

#84 - Sammie Lee Hill, DT, Stillman - The Broncos need a NT for their 3-4....enough said.

#110 - David Bruton, FS, Notre Dame - The Broncos are old at safety and Bruton will be able to sit for a year and learn behind of the best....Brian Dawkins.

#141 - Worrell Williams, ILB, California - They need to get younger at ILB. Andra Davis won't be here forever.

Where are your grades?

I popped in today thinking you may have done them by now.

You can start with mine: :D

Detroit:

1 LIONS (OnTheWarpath58) - Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia
20 LIONS (OnTheWarpath58) - Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois
33 LIONS (OnTheWarpath58) - William Beatty, OT, Connecticut
65 LIONS (OnTheWarpath58) - Evander Hood, DT, Missouri
82 LIONS (OnTheWarpath58) - Derrick Williams, WR, Penn State

Patriots:

23 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - James Laurinaitis, ILB, Ohio State
34 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - Clint Sintim, OLB, Virginia
47 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - Patrick Chung, SS, Oregon
58 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - Jairus Byrd, CB, Oregon
89 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - Kraig Urbik, OG, Wisconsin
97 PATRIOTS (OnTheWarpath58) - James Casey, TE, Rice

The Arizona Cardinals select Ian Campbell, OLB, Kansas State

I really like Campbell as a sleeper 3-4 OLB in this draft. He's not the fastest guy, but he has the size you look for and he actually has experience in a DE/OLB hybrid role, unlike most guys who require projection.

At best, Campbell can eventually fight for a starting spot in Arizona's new 3-4 scheme in a Vrabel-like role. At worst, he will provide 3-4 OLB depth on a team that simply lacks bodies that can play that position without embarrassing themselves.

Really? I actually like that draft better than the Jets draft.

Well your Patriots draft so far is an A+++. Good picks, but you totally benefitted from the Pats accumulating six picks in the first 100.

Your Lions draft started out really good, I loved the first three. Disagree bigtime with your last two. I think Hood is overrated, and I don't think he fits in the 3-4. D. Will, as I said before, is a bust waiting to happen.

First three picks are good enough that I'd give it at least a B+.

I dont think Detroit is running a 3-4.

Well, I don't think they've been running ANY defense the last five years.

True but Schwartz and Gun are 4-3 guys.

Guys we won't finish the draft at this rate.

I'm waiting on Eazy.

He picked Ian Campbell, you are up.

Steelers select Austin Collie, WR, BYU

Steelers also select Joel Bell, OT, Furman

This guy is a perfect fit for the Pats. He has great raw ability, but is coming off of an injury. Belichick has said that he doesn't have 12 spots open on his roster, but this is the kind of guy that they can draft and then put on IR, thus saving him a roster spot, allowing him to develop, and milking one year out of Joey Galloway. Once that is done, this guy can take over as a lethal return man and a legit slot or #2 option down the road.

The New England Patriots select Brandon Tate, WR, North Carolina

Remember to pm the next gm and check this thread like it has the puck and we'll finish.

I didn't think so either...

Having a lot of picks doesn't mean you make the most of them.

But since I'm not Carl Peterson, I WIN THE DRAFT!

Here is a guy I had rated alot higher than this but I didn't figure he would be around. I think he will be a stud special teamer player but could develop nicely behind DeMarcus Ware.

Dallas Cowboys select Henry Melton, DE/OLB, Texas

The Titans select Corvey Irvin, DT, Georgia.

An athletic juco transfer who has not yet played his best football. He can compete to become a rotational contributor for the Titans.

Hamas you are up for double picks.
