Blaze1up Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 9ers Aldon Smith is being said as a risky pick. I don't get it, wasn't he Big XII D-player of the year. Maybe it's the Mizzou thing (Ziggy Hood seems to be working out) but I would of preferred Prince. Whats the hold up on Bowers and Akeem Ayers ? And I guess Reggie's out at NO. Also Falcons look ready to make a run. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 It's a risky move because it wasnt predicted. Harbaugh doesn't care about predictions, he takes want he wants. Quote Link to comment
GMoose Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Baylor has 3 first round picks in the last 2 years...how is Briles still coaching there? Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Colorado has 2 this year as well... Ravens really messed up. Because they and the Bears couldn't get the trade squared in time, they lose out on gaining an extra later round pick. If I'm a part of Ravens brass, I'm furious. What do you know, the Ravens are furious. Interesting bit from SI's Peter King this morning. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/peter_king/04/29/2011-nfl-draft/index.html?eref=sihp All's well that ends well, you say? Not so fast. Angelo called Baltimore owner Steve Bisciotti to apologize, but Bisciotti wanted the fourth-round pick anyway, claiming it was part of the deal they'd agreed to. In fact, I'm told Bisciotti today will push to get the fourth-round pick, or to make the situation right in some way. The league is under no obligation to do so, because the trade was never official. And maybe all's fair in love and draft-night trades, but as far as Baltimore's concerned, I don't think this one's over. I think the Ravens will ask the league to award them some compensation from Chicago before the draft resumes at 6 p.m. Eastern today. Stay tuned. I would say the Ravens messed this up more than the Bears, but Jerry Angelo is doing the right thing by taking responsibility. I don't think the Ravens will get their compensated pick though.

Also Falcons look ready to make a run. Well Bowers had some knee problems from what I heard so a lot are worried about that for him. I know he was a potential top 5 pick at one point and I think #6 on kipers big board. As for Ayers I don't think he was any more than a mid 20s to late 20s level pick so not really fallen off too far yet and prob will go early in 2nd round. Quote Link to comment
huskersrule95 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 The 32nd and FINAL pick of the 1st round, the Green Bay Packers select Derek Sherrod/OT Mississippi State see you all tomorrow. Great work huskersrule in doing this thread. Thanks. I am just glad we had lots of people in here last night to talk about it. Makes it a lot more fun with more people. Hope we get a big crowd again tonight. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 27th pick the Baltimore Ravens select Jimmy Smith/CB Colorado I like this pick. Ray Lewis should solve any character issues Smith may have. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Definitely more fun with lots of people in the discussion. We're live now for Rounds 2&3. My Pats are kicking it off, hopefully by picking up a third first rounder next year... Brian Billick thinks an RB for us later this round. He said the Patriots are getting older at RB.........which is patently untrue! Danny Woodhead and BenJavus Green-Ellis? C'mon, coach! I agree with Mayock, who predicts Belichick will look for RBs later. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 lol Roger Goodfail. Can someone just can that clown already? Quote Link to comment

They have a history of trading down to get more pick or picks for later drafts. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 We didn't trade! I'm shocked Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Ras-I-Dowling, DB, Virginia. "And that pick makes a lot of sense to me" - Mayock. Huh. Quote Link to comment
huskersrule95 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 With the 33rd pick, the New England Patriots select Rasi Dowling/CB Virginia Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Baylor has 3 first round picks in the last 2 years...how is Briles still coaching there? What about Mizzou? They had two in the first 10 picks. This year. That's more top-10 picks than the whole B1G conf had in like a decade or something. Quote Link to comment
huskersrule95 Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 With the 34th pick, the Buffalo Bills select Aaron Williams/CB Texass, 35th pick, the Cincinnati Bengals select Andy Dalton/QB TCU Quote Link to comment
