NFL draft this Thursday

[Machx2]

Panthers should have grabbed Gabbert instead of Newton lol.

LOL did you expect any less? Wondering why they didnt snag a good corner......

Same here. Makes no sense at all to get an OT on a 9th pick! Lol I know it was talked about and they said they might. But Jerry Jones in an idiot.

[Pro88LX]

Worst pick ever in my opinion.

I'm surprised with the Bungels pick on WR. The cards should take Gabbert.

[idrivea4banger]

No surprise Cam Newton goes to Carolina.

[unkoricky]

yeah so far ive read they are / were ? in talks with New England (but adam schefter said the deal was dead... http://twitter.com/#!/adamschefter.)


also Minnesota too.. who knows whats going on?

I know Chris Moretenson on espn reported the New England one. i'll probably turn onto the local radio station at 6.

on NFLN,Stacey Dales said "Absolutely, no way, with certainty." that NE trades up w/Dallas to possibly get Cam Jordan. But she also meant trading up to us, not just Cam Jordan, she said there is a chance NE might try to trade up w/ someone.

The Dallas Cowboys are leaning toward taking Boston College OT Anthony Castonzo with their first-round draft choice because they believe he is more consistent than Southern California OT Tyron Smith and believe Castonzo is ready to play.

im laughing at this

Updating a previous report, the Oakland Raiders are looking to acquire a first-round draft choice in the 2011 NFL Draft in order to take University of Colorado CB Jimmy Smith.

i heard on the radio that Dallas could trade down to possibly #11 cause Houston wants to move up.

They are also talking trades with NE, which would put them at 17 or 18, but they would pick up the first pick in the second round among other lower picks.


I'm ok with trading down, if Peterson, Amakamura, or Fairley are gone. If any of those guys are still on the board, and they trade down, I may throw a beer bottle through the tv. That OT they've been eyeing will still be there at 17 or 18. Hell, he might still be there for the first pick of the second round.

Let the games begin.

I just hope the cowboys don't take smith at 9. Yes, they need to improve the o-line badly, but you do not take a project right tackle in the first round, ever.

The guy played at 280 pounds on the right side. When the scouts talk about him, I hear words like "potential", "risky" and "maybe". If you are drafting a cornerstone tackle, you need to hear words like "lock" or "stud" or "future pro-bowler".

I'd much rather see them trade down and take another tackle much later. I don't think smith is clearly better that Solder, Carimi, or Costanzo. If he were Jake Long or Joe Thomas - they should jump on it, but I don't think Smith will ever be that good. We don't even know if he can play on the left side.

Well put, if we take a 1st round OT a trade down would be the best idea. Maybe even the next round since we pick 8th in round 2. It's starting to look like trading back would be our best choice unless some stud falls back to us like last year. Amukamara would be the best choice if that doesn't happen.

We need a game changer, no more, no less. You can find quality OL all draft day long. We need a guy that will intercept a ball and run it back for TD(s), a DL/LB that can and will send QB's to the bench without the ball.

I like Costanzo over Smith but I hope they can trade down and still get him. It would also be nice if they can nab Peterson with the 9th pick although that might be a stretch. IMO, a shut down CB like him is the only thing that would justify the boys not getting Costanzo.

I doubt PP makes it. I could see Buffalo, Cleveland, San Fran, and Tennessee taking him. All the rumors in Cleveland are that he is their top choice if available.
