NFL Draft 2015 - Time to go Shopping! The consensus is Winston and Mariotta will go one and two, respectively. IMO, neither is what I'd call a legit franchise QB like Andrew Luck.
Giants need to upgrade the pass rush, o-line and secondary.
The big question tonight is - what will Chip Kelly do? |

In 1979, Joe Montana was drafted in the thrid round by the San Francisco 49ers as the
overall 82nd pick.
This lets you know right there that the draft is a crap shoot, and that the so called experts have no fucking idea what they are talking about when selecting a player. So I never follow the draft and could care less who's taken first overall.

Out of 34 number one draft picks in the NFL in the past 34 years, maybe one third of them have had stellar careers, or accurately reflected being picked first. The rest were mostly bums, got hurt (Bo Jackson, for example), or were mediocre players (Eli Manning, Testaverde, George, etc).

Yep, their entire defense has to be rebuilt. They just selected Bud DuPree from Kentucky.
Giants drafted OL Ereck Flowers from Miami.
Eagles got their replacement for Maclin. |

kpowers said: Once again Colbert will not draft a CB Bud Dupree probably was the highest player rated on their board at that point and he definitely comes with a higher ceiling than Jarvis Jones did a couple of seasons ago. Jarvis did not take on blockers in college and just free lanced and run around blockers which he's had to adjust to at this level and then the wrist injury last year. CB definitely needs to be addressed next round. Don't laugh at my funk

Remember, the mid-to-later rounds are where you find the gems, the cats who'll form the core of your team.
How lucky were the Jets? They may have drafted one of the best players in the draft. If they keep Mo, that defense will be scary with the addition of Williams. |

I don't think the Steelers should have drafted a WR. Should have gotten a Safety instead or some other Defense position |

I agree but I tell you this, I sure as hell like our 3rd round pick at WR
a hell of a lot better than the half pint sized one we took last season.
Sammie Coates> Dri Archer
Also they still managed to draft Doran Grant in the 4th round and he
can play corner and safety so I'm cool with the pick. Don't laugh at my funk

I can never really disagree with you. I like Jesse James TE at 6'7. So who is going to be the Steelers Saftey?? |

Mike Mitchell at one spot and Shamarko Thomas had the first crack at the other safety spot. If Thomas can't cut it old man Will Allen has been bought back as insurance. Don't laugh at my funk

Bud Dupree was a great value pick and possible steal for the Steelers as he was projected to go anywhere from 8 to 15. Also remember Jason Worlids retired and you don't want a 37 year old
James Harrison playing too many snaps and James will be a great mentor. Jarvis Jones has
been working out with James Harrison this offseason. Hopefully it will pay dividends for him. Don't laugh at my funk

Steelers picked up safety Gerod Holliman in the 7th round. Seems like these last 2 drafts Steelers have been trying to fix the Jarvis Jones pick. |

Maybe Dri Archer should stay on special teams, he is pretty fast. |

They drafted Shazier with the intention of playing him inside instead of outside like he did in college. Don't laugh at my funk

Maybe Dri Archer should stay on special teams, he is pretty fast. But so is the rest of the guys in the NFL. He has seemed slow to adjust to the speed of the NFL since playing against smaller competition at Kent State and not to mention he is only 5'7" Don't laugh at my funk
