  1. I liked our draft....but whats crazy is I thought a good amt of folks would be for it as well I knew about EVERYONE we picked off the strength of this board alone....I was happy with Thorton, VERY HAPPY with Hughes and thought Boyett was a steal...I've seen him play and IMHO he was the toughest player on a very talented but finesse Oregon Def

  2. Round 1: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson - 6'1", 214, plays faster than timed, soft hands, catches in traffic, can play outside and inside, reminds me of a slightly slower Roddy White with just as much upside

     

    Round 3: Darius Slay, CB, Mississippi State - 6'0", 192, 4.36 speed, better in coverage than in run support, has potential to be starting CB with coaching that I feel we can offer

     

    Round 4: Ty Powell, OLB, Harding - 6'2", 249, 4.64 speed, has experience playing DE, safety and LB in his high school and collegiate career, has experience dropping into coverage as well.

     

    Round 5: Eric Herman, OG, Ohio - 6'4", 320, 5.25, looked very good in his combine drills, has 51 consecutive starts, and run blocking is his strength, was part of run blocking unit that helped his RB set college all time rushing record

     

    Round 6: Ray Ray Armstrong, SS, Miami (probably my most intriguing choice so far): 6'3", 216, 4.70 speed, this guy could be this year's Vontaze Burfict, IMO. At one point in time, touted to be a round 1-2 selection, I expect this guy to drop enough to be available here due to his off field issues

     

    Round 7 - Kyle Juszczyk, FB, Harvard - 6'1", 248 lbs, 4.72 speed, very impressive as lead blocker vs all LBs invited in the Senior Bowl, played HB/FB/TE in college, perfect fit for the 2-tight and 3-tight sets we will run in the WCO with Pep Hamilton, has soft hands for catching routes as well, this also allows Colts to not use Dwayne Allen as FB as much

    Best Mock I've seen so far

  3. How can you think that pass rusher is a priority over OG? WR shouldn't be a priority over OG either IMO. I'm fine if they draft one in the 1st rd. since we made our FA signings, but O-line would still be my #1 priority if Warmack or Cooper fell in our laps(which I highly doubt).

    I think you have to base the wishlist off of something realistic, which I've learned on this board...you folks are harsh...but yeah back to what I'm trying to say, The 1st round talent for OLs will be gone at 24...however 1st round caliber pass rushers and WR's will more than likely be available. This draft is deep with OL talent but they will be picked up when they SHOULD be. We picked up a starting tackle and guard in FA we need another guard but we very well might have him on the team already. Its a matter of reevaluation.
  4. I can't tell what the consensus is on Ogletree but I like the pick. He's a solid 3-4 ILB that would compliment Freeman....but he'd be a solid over OLB and mathis could be moved to rush....but given our picks ups of Sidbury, who has the motor to be a decent rusher along with Walden that will be their role...If we got Ogletree he'd be an enforcer against TE's which is a need...

    3rd round pick I see it being Stedman Bailey...we're getting a WR if we dont address it in FA....Ijalana is the other starting guard when the season starts so that isn't a need.
