I forwraded my Pat's board and also....Eagles (GH), Jax (Jam.) & the Ravens (Mean Dean) I will be available th rest of the day after 3 and all day tomorrow (WED). Thanks!!!
Love my Ahmed black pick, as he replaces a long time great Colt Bob Sanders who had many of the same question marks in his draft year, and if not for injuries maybe in position to be a hall of famer. Black will never be a Height/Weight/Speed Raider...but he is a true ball hawk who will work well in that cover 2 scheme. His lack of speed will be cancelled a bit by the rest of the unit's above average speed. This pick fills a need, presents good value, and provides a player that fits the system.
Went with Casey Matthews, he can play any LB position in a 4-3 scheme and with the age and free agency issues with the Falcons LBs this should please the fans and the future of the team tremendously. He should come in as a rotational guy at LB and benefits since he is above average coverage LB and shouldn't be a liability.
And the Pitus fall ends, He should benefit very well being thrown to by Tom Brady. He's a hell of a possession WR and solid red zone Target. IMO has the ceiling of a Cotchery type player which ain't bad at all.
Matthews was one of the guys I Was hoping would be there for BUF in rd 5. Nice pick in late rd 4/early rd 5 where he should go. And there seems like a lot of WRs going off the board. I really like Pettis but went with Toliver over him(Taller, which BUF needs), as he can fit the role better for BUF could use. He could be their no.3 right away and if Evans continues to disappoint, could work with Stevie Johnson to help Fitzpatrick/Cam Newton.....
Yeah I picked him up quick , I thought you with that other Bills pick would grab em and knew you had another pick so I had to take em despite wanting to go DT or SS. And I agree Buf needs a big man next to Steve and I think Pettis would fail in BUF with less targets he could get in NE.
I'm here with the Jets pick, trying to make sense of who's left. Lot of good players went off the board recently.
Not in love with the pick but I didn't think he'd last until the 5th round and there's a few guys I like that hopefully will be there.
Its not that bad of a pick, Thorton is more of a project but the confernece he played in he dominated, and if there's any team youd want a project rotational DLineman on its the Ravens or Jets for sure. I see his value in the mid 5th round but a reach could be seen as a good idea. Now I maybe would of went with two other DT/DE, one BakerMaker knows very well or possibly an Olineman since there is still some value but like I said I like the Thorton pick, he's massive and stops the run efficiently. I think its solid, definitely a low risk/ high reward. Also, he's been compared Cullen Jenkins with better athleticism.
Thanks. The way corners were coming off the board early I was suprised when he was there, had to read the list over a couple times to be sure.
I went DE due to the uncertainty of Cullen Jenkins returning and Jolly getting busted for codeine...again. McPhee has experience as a 3-4 DE, so he can bring some good value whether backing up Ryan Pickett or challenging Neal and Wilson for the other starting job...
Nice Job with Cameron, wanted to take em with my Falcons pick but really feel theyll draft one later on and then take one earlier text year. He needs time to develop but he should become a favorite target for whoever strats in Carolina.
Thanks. Buffalo needs more playmakers and with Newton, Spiller(From last year), the emergence of Johnson from last year, Stocker and Toliver...they might be putting together something nice on offense. Still the O-Line needs to get established a bit more so its best to let Fitzpatrick just run the team rather than have Newton thrown into the fire. Wanted to address the secondary with the Carmichael pick. McGee is too injury prone so Carmichael could serve as a nice nickel.
