2018 NFL Draft Thread

[Shive]

I really just want to see Josh Jackson fall to us in the 2nd.

[stitches]

At this point I wouldn't mind trading up for either Josh Jackson or Harold Landry giving up a 4th round pick.

Notice how Wynn, Price and Ragnow are all gone by pick #23. I doubt Hernandez lasts much longer. I think we were all fine passing on Nelson, assuming that one of these other elite G's fell to Round 2. But with these guys going early, I sure am glad to not have missed on a blue-chip lineman. Just saying...

 

On another note, NO WAY this happens. But Harold Landry still hasn't been chosen and we're at pick #26. Surely he won't fall into our laps in Round 2... right?? 

 

Good point!  Boy color me surprised that guards were taken over the edge and corners.  No way I could have seen that happening.

Darnold and Allen to start, Rosen and Mayfield to sit to start. 

 

Rosen in by Week 3 when Bradfield is injured.... again.

I can see that as well

What did we lose? You can't lose something you don't have?!? If anything, be upset cause we traded back from 3 when we could have had Chubb

 

Colts fans would be much more excited now if that Jets trade happened tonight, rather than a month ago. Imagine the excitement if, a few hours ago, this happened live:

 

Colts on the clock (pick #3): "WE HAVE A TRADE!!"

 

Colts fans everywhere: WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT

 

50% of Colts fans: No dude, we could be taking Chubb!! Why trade down?

 

Other 50% of Colts fans: Oh yeah, hopefully we trade down and still get Nelson!! What are we getting??

 

... (long pause) ...

 

... (another long wait) ...

 

ESPN announcer: "We have a trade to announce. The Indianapolis Colts have traded the 3rd pick of Round 1 to the New York Jets, in exchange for the 6th pick of Round 1..."

 

Chubb supporters: Dang, we're probably missing our guy...

 

Nelson supporters: We can totally land Quenton at #6 still!! But what else did we get...

 

ESPN announcer (continues): "... and the 4th and 17th picks of Round 2..."

 

Chubb AND Nelson supporters: OH HOLY HECK TO THE YESS!!! WHAT A DEAL!!! WAY TO GO, BALLARD

 

Quick-thinking Colts fans: So wait, now we get BACK-TO-BACK selections in Round 2? Sweet...

 

ESPN announcer (still continuing): "... AND the Jets Round 2 pick in 2019"

 

ESPN announcer: **drops the mic**

 

ALL Colts fans: **silence, due to utter shock and awe of what they just heard**

 

... (after regaining consciousness) ...

 

ALL Colts fans: "We're getting Nelson AND three 2nd-rounders. What a night to be a Colts fan!"

 

or something like that lol

[Shive]

Terrell Edmunds in the 1st!?!? He's a 3rd or 4th round guy at best.

[Bluefire4]

I had Terrell Edmunds as a second rounder. I think he'll be a good player even though I expect many to call this pick a reach.

[stitches]

And I thought I had Terrell Edmunds high at 69 on my board... lol...

Jackson doesn’t seem like a NE type QB. 

 

Same, just don’t see it

Did they think they were drafting his brother?

I'm shocked, but love it. That's now Hurst, Penny and Edmunds going in the 1st. They were projected 2nd-3rd round talents. So you know what that means for the Colts??

 

3 projected 1st-round talents sliding to us

Chargers are probably giddy that Derwin James dropped in their laps, a very good secondary will get better if they get him

Agreed. I would have accepted Indy selecting James at #6. That's incredible value for them to nab him at #17. They're building a nice defense in San Diego.

[Bluefire4]

How many defensive linemen do the Jaguars need???

[DougDew]

Cool for Jax.

[csmopar]

You know there's usually a couple big wow moments in a draft every year but this year takes the cake. Lots of head scratchers for sure. I'm glad I'm not a GM, my head would explode. 

[Surge89]

Give me Landry and Williams and this draft is gonna be killer. Jackson Oliver and Guice there as well???  No way this can be messed up.

[Trueman]

Damn , that’s a total Coughlin pick. 

[SteelCityColt]

Do the Jags know you can only have 11 defenders on the field?!

 

Loaded

[NFLfan]

Man, lots of great players for my Vikes to choose from.

Sacksonville needed another to try to keep fresh now that we have Nelson?

Now Seahawks go OL but who?

 

Will Hernandez?

Very surprised they took Penny in the 1st, over an OL. See Colts fans, it could be worse. Happy up about taking Nelson!

[NFLfan]

@stitches who is the best player left?

[stitches]

I don't like this. Jaguars piling up on interior linemen freaks...Good thing we got a freak of our own at guard.

This next round going to be like waiting till the dance is over on prom night and for your dates dress to come off

[Bluefire4]

I heard a rumor earlier today that the Vikings would take the tight end Goedert. I don't know why when they have Kyle Rudolph...

 

I'm going to guess Will Hernandez.

[NFLfan]

Here we go. With the #30 pick the Minnesota Vikings select ???

On my board? Landry->Hurst->Connor Williams->Josh Jackson

 Calvin Ridley to Cowboys?

Gott say, I love seeing Ridley go to the Falcons. They've sorely lacked a legit #2 WR since the decline of Roddy White. Ridley is going to be open A LOT playing opposite of Julio. Nice pickup for them.

[Bluefire4]

I am surprised Mike Hughes went in the first with all the trouble around him, but not a bad pick if he stays out of trouble.

[stitches]

At this point one has to assume there is something going on with Landry, right? Like medical or something? 

[Bluefire4]

All that talk about teams picking/trading up for Lamar Jackson and if New England doesn't take him here, he's not even going in the first round.

I was getting ready to ask the same. Most had him as a mid rounder if I recall right 

[ColtsGermany]

Think we should trade up to 32 to secure guice before the browns take him.

Thanks. I wonder why we went with Hughes there. Is he better than Isaiah Oliver?

 

I really wanted OL. With Daniels, Hernandez and Williams on the board, I thought we would draft one of them.
