Van's also a rook I think. RPG also. Teflon. Ophin. RickyBobby. Connie. This might be easier to just look instead of going from memory.
Here are all my drafts 2009 Cardinals 2nd Donald Brown RB 3rd Captain Munnerlyn CB 4th Mike Thomas WR 5th Cameron Morrah TE 5th Rhett Bomar QB 6th Myron Pryor DT 7th Edwin Williams C 7th Andrew Gardner OT Not much at all. A few depth players that are still in the league Brown, Munnerlyn, Pryor, Thomas, Gardner 2010 Texans 2nd Damian Williams WR 2nd Kareem Jackson CB 3rd Jamar Chaney LB 4th Geno Atkins DT 6th Charles Scott RB 7th Ciron Black OT Mostly missed, but had 2 very good picks in Kareem Jackson and Geno Atkins, steal of the draft in the 4th 2011 Falcons 2nd Justin Houston DE 2nd Stephen Paea DT 2nd Bruce Carter OLB 3rd Marvin Austin DT 4th Tyler Sash S 6th Taylor Potts QB To early to tell, but I really like the potential of Justin Houston, Carter, Paea and Marvin Austin 2012 Giants 2nd Dwayne Allen TE 2nd David Wilson RB 3rd Jared Crick DE 4th TY Hilton WR 5th Jeff Allen OT 6th Evan Rodriguez TE Got a steal in Hilton and Dwayne Allen and Wilson look like they should be starters for years to come. I would say overall my drafts have gotten better each year.
I forget who exactly I drafted in 2011/2012, but I remember they were strong classes. Shouldn't be a surprise.
My only good pick in 2009 was Harvin. Did better in 2010 with Gronk in the 2nd, Lamar Houston in the 4th, and Blount with the last pick of the 5th (that's one of those you were talking about that didn't look like great value as he went undrafted). Bad draft again in 2011. Last year was hit and miss, but I did get arguably the two best rookie defensive players in Kuechly and Jenkins.
How about we re-shuffle the time slots and make up for being ahead so we don't go a whole day without picks again?
And thats a great pick in Bahktiari. That guy is a going to be a stud, pure and simple. I remember watching him when he was a freshman when I was watching Nate Solder. Bahktiari was a bit of a pudding then, but he was good. He's grown into his weight and there is no way he should have gone this late. I was thinking about doing it the other way around, take Bahktiari at #124, but when the backs started going quickly, I figured the guys I would have taken would not be there. I could go with Ray Graham, but I wanted a more physical element. Micheal is a hell of a back as well, and don't be surprised if we take him late as he will certainly fill out our (the Phins) roster at RB. But for me, the attitude would let me pass him by and wait, if possible.
Yea, when the backs started going we made a move for the back we wanted hoping he'd keep slipping. We didn't have much way to move up further for him though.
Yah I think I got Christine in the perfect spot. Didn't have to move up or down and considering the run on backs. [video=youtube;LCVqxFeWFoU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCVqxFeWFoU[/video] I mean if he makes it to our 3rd rounder I'd love to pair him with Miller. He looks like a good fit for a one cut runner and hits the hole with some pretty deceptive speed. Plus, if Miami takes him...it's obviously with the blessing of Sherman. Just got to limit his carries....make sure he's over his injury issues.
How do you look past last years?? Heres my Draft last year... WR Kendall Wright Solid rookie year with a rotating QB in Tennessee OT Mike Adams Mike Adams was awarded the PFWA's "Joe Greene Great Performance Award" for his performances as a rookie in 2012. This award is presented to an outstanding rookie each season. OLB Zach Brown Had to be in the running for rookie of the year. 93 tackles 5.5 sacks 3 INTs. I think I remember getting scolded for this pick too.. RB LaMichael James 27 carries for 125 yards the last 4 games as he was promoted to Gores back up. 11 carries 65 yards in the playoffs. RB Vick Ballard 814 yards as a rookie for the Colts DE Donte Paige-Moss bad pick WR Dale Moss Bears practice squad CB Cliff Harris bad pick QB Jordan Jefferson apparently im pretty bad at the end of the draft lol. but I did really well in the first 5 rounds.
