GoSox05 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 They always boo first, then they find out who it is and they look stupid. NFL needs to move the draft to different cities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I have to think the bears go CB or LB next. I still think this team needs another WR (Marshall, jefferey Bennett only real WR. Weems is barely a WR). Also DT is really thin - I think those are two positions to get depth at in the later rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) You never know if players are going to be good, but I love the Packers pick. That is exactly what they needed. Edited April 26, 2013 by GoSox05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Holy s***. Live blogged the draft (will be replayed during a rain delay). THEN I showed up late for work. Think I had too much fun. Article should be up on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hub Arkush is a normal joe-schmo critiquing picks. Phil Emery does this for a living. Who should I trust more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If Emery is to be believed, he wasn't moving down if Long was still on the board. This is who he was targeting all along. Says he's an athletic freak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Sure long is a great athlete, but I think he started 4 games for Oregon last year? Not exactly what you are looking for in your first round pick. He may turn out to be a HOF, its just right now, extremely risky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I'm surprised so many guards went in the first round. You can usually get those guys in the 3-5 rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) As a Lions fan, I'm pretty happy with the selection of Ziggy Ansah. Hopefully, all these comparisons to Jason Pierre-Paul come true.

dasox24 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 26, 2013 -> 05:04 AM) All valid points to which I agree. When I posted that I was boozed up and looking to bash two teams I dislike (Min and UT). And frankly the bears also took a Juco guy with even less experience than Patterson Haha, fair enough... I've been there, done that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 26, 2013 -> 07:40 AM) You would know better than me, but I was blown away by Patterson at that UT game I went to. His routes to the ball were so strange and effective, you knew he had that sixth sense great players have. He's the most impressive player I've ever watched in person. He has an amazing knack to take a 5 yards gain and turn in into a 50 yard gain (see the .gif in my signature). I'm not terribly happy with him ending up on the Vikings. Obviously I'm a bit biased, but I think he's going to be really good. And he really didn't know what he was doing last year. If he can get coached-up and fine tune parts of his game, he'll be a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted no part of him in Round 1. But I still think he's a solid LB. I would rather avoid the media hoopla that will surround him, but if he's there for our pick, he would be a solid choice.
