2012 NFL Draft

Reasons the NFL draft bugs me: I swear I, as a football watcher, can draft better than half the franchises involved.

You're the Cleveland Browns, you suck, you have needs all over the field, and you trade 3 picks to move up 1 spot to get a guy you would've gotten at your prior spot.

Now for the Miami Dolphins: obviously you need a QB, everybody knows it, but why do you use the #8 pick on a guy who probably isn't a #8 pick? So now you still need a QB and you got no benefit out of your pick.

 

Come on. Now next year when the Dolpins draft the QB from USC they'll have a great backup for him.

 

I don't know about Kuechly. He's going to be highly productive and most likely stay out of trouble. He's not a freak athlete, but he'll be at worst a solid LB for 10 years.

Poe and Irvin both wanted to be Vols but couldn't get in academically.

Griffin III was seriously interested in Tennessee as well.

Richardson made a few visits here too.

This pisses me off.

 

11. Chiefs- Dontari Poe DT- Memphis
12. Eagles- Fletcher Cox DT- Mississippi State
13. Cardinals- Micheal Floyd WR- Notre Dame
14. Rams- Micheal Brockers DT- LSU
15. Seahawks- Bruce Irvin DE- West Virginia

 

It just goes to show that we are on the minds of 3/4's or more of the big time prospects, imo. Its a crying shame that we don't recruit better than we do if you think about it.

 

They'd have Arian Fostered their ways through Knoxville.

 

16. Jets- Quinton Couples DE- North Carolina
17. Bengals- Dre Kirkpatrick DB- Alabama
18. Chargers- Melvin Ingram DE- South Carolina
19. Bears- Shea McClellin LB- Boise State
20. Titans- Kendall Wright WR- Baylor (WOW)

 

Interesting.

 

A true Titans pick, an undersized, oft-injured WR that's a reach.

 

He may turn out to be a badass receiver, but my God, we need D-lineman

 

Would have preferred DeCastro or a pass rusher. Who knows? He might turn out to be like DeSean Jackson.

 

21. Patriots- Chandler Jones DE- Syracuse
22. Browns- Brandon Weeden QB- Oklahoma State (Browns having a good draft, imo)
23. Lions- Riley Reiff OL- Iowa
24. Steelers- David DeCastro OL- Stanford
25. Patriots- Donta Hightower LB- Alabama

 

Pretty surprised the LB from Boise went ahead of Hightower.

 

Racist imo

 

If Upshaw is there and I am the Niners, I set up the best [uck fay]ing LB corps in decades

 

what the [uck fay] are the Titans thinking? Hightower is there to shore up the D and they take a WR.

 

Too bad Konz from Wisconsin won't be on the board when the Titans pick again. They could use a center on that o-line. I don't mind the Wright pick because they need more playmakers. CJ, Britt, Washington, Cook and now Wright are some nice weapons for Locker.

 

we don't need defense.
