OT: Which player do you WANT your NFL team to draft tomorrow?
Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad
I don't watch the draft because it's boring as can be. Plus I can get a notification on my phone to tell me who the Pats draft. That's all I need.
I just hope Goodell falls off the stage and breaks his dick off.
Pats fan here too.. Even without a 1st rounder I'm looking forward to the draft. With their day 2 picks I'd like to see them go with Karl Joseph or Vonn Bell and perhaps a replacement for Chandler Jones.. A guy I really want to see them add is Cyrus Jones, day 3 or later. Multi-'position' guy (defense and special teams).

I'm really hoping for Kenneth Dixon in the 2nd round. I think he might end up having the best career of any RB in the draft (Elliot is a monster but he draws too much contact, he'll be cooked in 6 years), he seems like a great dude, and he is a perfect fit for the offense. They can flex him out or run him between the tackles. I know he is a lot like Dion Lewis, but I do not trust Lewis' knee. I'd like Paul Perkins in this spot as well, as more of a traditional, down-hill back.
Obviously I'd also love it if, by some miracle, Sterling Sheperd fell all the way to the mid-second round. I think Cyrus Jones is a great fit too. I also really like Nick Kwiatkowski in the middle, especially with Mayo's retirement. Seems like every year we have mass LB injuries and this kid can play.
I want them to trade with either the Dolphins or the Titans out of the 8 slot and then pick up LaQuon Treadwell (everybody remember him?) and another 2nd round pick either this year or next.
And then trade back into the latter half of the 1st round and get Paxton Lynch or sit tight at 32 and take Cook. We come out of the draft with that and I'll be happy.
We'll still lose a shit-ton of games.....but I'll be happy until the regular season starts.
NFL draft day in Cleveland = Super Bowl Sunday for everybody else.
Goff & Wentz are going 1-2.
Good topic OP BTW.
No, Goff is going to go #1 to the Rams and Wentz is going #2 to the Eagles.
EDIT: Beat me to it.
You can do better than Treadwell at WR. Coleman, Doctson, Fuller, Sheperd, Caroo, etc. Treadwell is not a first round talent, to me.
True. Or at least not a high-to-mid first rounder. I think PFF's analysis on him is pretty convincing.
He is slow, but he's not a speed WR so it shouldn't matter.. He's got good hands and runs routes well. That said he shouldn't be the first WR off the board, plenty of better options.

I'd also be ok with trading Joe Thomas, staying at 8 and taking Stanley. I really like Shaq Lawson too.
We are going absolutely nowhere this year and Thomas has earned it.
I would like Nkemdiche at 32 as a 3/4 DE, but I don't think I could handle taking another chance on players with character issues.
NFL draft day in Cleveland = Super Bowl Sunday for everybody else.Some of my best friends are Browns fans and I can't for the life of me think of why any of you have hope for anything but an abject failure from the Browns front office no matter who's in charge. Sorry, I hope they prove me wrong at some point because they have a lot of loyal fans who deserve to root for a respectable team.
When that happens, and it will, I'll know deep down that I never left. Your smugness and pity is noted though, next time feel free to keep it to yourself.
I like Kevin Hogan if they're targeting a QB later on. I don't see Lynch or Cook being a starter worthy of a second round pick.
But his throwing mechanics are so terrible I just don't know. His delivery takes forever and the ball almost reaches his waist before he brings it back up.
I know all the guys with this problem work on their mechanics and they unveil a brand new delivery for scouts before the draft. But when they're under pressure they will always revert back to what they know.
have faith in kevin costner
i see the talent, but am i the only one who sees the words 'character issues!!', and that will only be made worse when he goes from ole miss payroll to the big time payroll?
EDIT: how did this drop 15 comments? it was in response to mgrowold's post. thanks drupal.

Likely will be another infamous day for the Factory of Sadness
I know one guy I don't want the Skins to pick - Vernon Hargreaves.
We all saw why....
A'Shawn Robinson for Washington NFL franchise. Run D was atrocious last year, please yes to large and fast man.
It's the Lions, so the choice is pretty much down to either a WR or a TE. I guess I'd have to say Treadwell if he's available, Fuller if he's not.

Although it is the Lions and they may very well not do this, I would rather they would on these two units as well in the opening rounds. In the middle rounds, a corner and maybe a backup QB as well or a serviceable TE or RB if there is one around. I admit to some trepidation about the draft because that seems to be part of a Lions fan's makeup, but I am more than willing to give Quinn a shot here to get it at least mostly right (it will take a few drafts of getting it "mostly right", mind you)
No way.
OT - Tunsil, Stanley, Decker, Conklin if any are there
If not? Ragland
WR or TE are the most stupid positions to pick in round 1. Just terrible.
Please, not Johnny Manziel or Brady Quinn! Please...please...please!!!
OSU player will get drafted by the Lions...and his career will be ruined by the Lions. Take that as you will.
Buffalo: Nkemdiche tomorrow, Jake Rudock a few days later
As a Bears fan, I really hope Floyd from Georiga drops to us, other than that, I would be okay with Shaq lawson. I also hope Jordan Howard is around in the Third, after watching him destroy UofM last year, would like to see that from the other side of things.

...fell to the Vikes at #23, I'd be ecstatic.
Vikes would probably need to trade into top-10 for that dude.
The Baylor WR has a better chance to go in the top 15 than Treadwell.
Treadwell SHOULD be there. He is a second round talent that is, for God knows what reason, getting top 10 hype.
He is getting plenty of hype for some reason. I believe I saw a mock draft where he went either 8 or 9 but I cannot find it at the moment.
Probably cuz you're drinking too much Johnny Walker Blue
