Other thread was getting long.

Don't like the Slaughter pick.

6th round pick. No judgement should be made.

We should really stop judging draft picks after the 1st round. It doesn't matter after that. They were skipped over for a reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, right. That's dumb.

Something like 4% of 6th round picks end up starting.

You're right. We should not try to pick the best players at any spot any more. The NFL draft should not go over 1 round because anyone worth taking would have been taken.

You have access to the Browns board? If so, I am sorry. But I think Slaughter was probably ranked higher than the players not picked.

What would be the point of a message board if everyone was like, "Well, that's who they had rated the highest, it was obviously the right pick!"

Are we NFL scouts? Obviously not. Does that mean we shouldn't come here and discuss our opinions? Eh, I thought that's what this board was for.

My OSU homer-ness aside, I kind of suprised Reid Freigel (sp?) has not been picked....think he's a good developmental tackle to stash on PS

I agree. I just don't understand the disgust some people have towards a 6th round pick.

DT, Adam Replogle from Indiana is a guy to watch for in the 7th round. Good developmental guy.

I'd like to see Stoneburner in the 7th.

I like the Slaughter pick.

Matt Scott with one of the last two picks?

We've been all over him in the pre-draft process.

NFL.com doesn't even have height/weight for the guy the Saints just picked, Rufus Johnson

Listen to my buddy Rufus... he knows what he's talking about!

Actually, I saw Rufus Johnson play in person. He was playing RE at the Texas vs. the Nation game. He wasn't bad, wasn't good. Just kind of "meh." There were definitely some bad players there. Don't understand how Armonty Bryant isn't drafted yet but Johnson is.

Rambo off the board now, to washington


Statistics are like a bikini; what they show is interesting, but what they hide is vital.
Drive for show (1st round), Putt for dough (rest of draft).

Random guy pops up when Denard Robinson is picked - LOL


The comment underneath is hilarious, too - "Even his big draft moment was intercepted."

j/c

So far the draft has netted us a WR1, WR3, a situational pass rusher, and some special teams/secondary depth.

We'll come out of the draft with 7 players (?) if we make these next two selections, two of them with a body of work in the NFL.

I'm looking for depth on the OL and DL with these last two picks. Does not have to be, just what I think would be helpful for depth in TC and hopefully beyond.
