How many of you are all in with RG3?

Is he really worthy of being in the discussion with Luck, Kalil, Claiborne and Blackmon?

steelbtexan · 03-04-2012

I'm all in with RG3.

I would trade this yrs 1st and 3rd and next yrs 1st and 3rd to get him. It probably still wont be enough to get him.

I consider him to be a better work ethic/ smarter version of Vick. He's going to be great. IMHO

I agree. However, Luck is going to be even better IMO.

There is something in the back of my mind that came out last year that he was considering not turning pro. Does he live, eat, breathe football or is he a Carr clone?

I had a really good feeling for Dalton and even stronger for Newton, not so much for Griffin.

Although I can buy taking him to replace Ponder.

**Dutchrudder** · 03-05-2012

Next up:

7- Jaguars- HouTex
8- Dolphins- RMartin65
9- Panthers- Timekiller
10- Bills- Texan4Ever

Just want to reiterate this, it's for everyone's benefit so this doesn't last until the actual draft. Also, make sure your profile is set to an email that you use often.

Hey guys, one other thing that can help speed up this process is to enable email from other members on your profile. Some have it, some don't, but I would imagine people check their email more often than this site. To enable it, go to "User CP", then click "Edit Options" on the side and make sure you have the box checked for "Receive Email from Other Members". I may use that to notify people when they have it enabled.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-05-2012

I here! I'll make my pick here in a few. Thanks

**HOU-TEX** · 03-05-2012

With the 8th pick of the 2012 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars select:

Quinton Coples, DE, North Carolina

To me, this is a no-brainer pick. The Jags need help practically everywhere on defense. With Coples there at 8, the Jags had no choice but to select him and instantly upgrade their pass rush.

rmartin65 · 03-05-2012

Nice pick. Coples was going to be the pick here if you took this guy...

With the 8th pick (the Jags were 7th), the Miami Dolphins select Iowa OT Riley Reiff, 6'6" 313 lbs

A big kid with a massive frame, Reiff will be a day one starter at RT for the Phish, and will likely be a 10-15 year starter at the position. I know it is the chic pick for the Dolphins, but I feel that it is the right move. Some picks just seem to click, and this one does. Also, I am not viewing QB as a huge need- I am banking on Flynn coming here in the off-season.

You say the Jags need help practically everywhere on defense...

But weren't they pretty good defensively last year?

Yeah, the jags only real defensive needs are pass rushers. But this is turning the D into a super strength i would guess. Hard position to be in, without trades and FA. You'd have to suspect they've somewhat addressed the WR position.

Wish we could do these after FA, but then it rushes the process prior to the actual draft.

I'd be up for doing a 3 or 4 round draft April 1st. Maybe other would be interested too. It would be cool to compare the picks based on FA and franchise tags.

Picks have been updated.

Texan4Ever · 03-05-2012

Just a heads up, I will be making my pick at the end of the day (I have exams and stuff).

**kiwitexansfan** · 03-05-2012

It seems the Jaguars have been picking DEs high for years with not much return.

They were pretty good last year due to their DT and LB play, imo. They need pass rushers, safeties and another CB. They really need safeties, but there's none worthy of a 1st round pick.

**Dutchrudder** · 03-05-2012

On the clock:

9- Panthers- Timekiller
10- Bills- Texan4Ever
11- Chiefs- Honoring Earl 34
12- Seahawks- Ndevine7
13- Cardinals- Brandon420tx
14- Cowboys- SteelBTexan
15- Eagles- Shaft75

I have PM'd Timekiller. By the way, please note at the bottom of your pick when you PM the next person. It will help things move faster if the person making the current pick PMs the next guy. Keep it flowing and enable emails in your profile!

**beerlover** · 03-05-2012

three tackles in the top 10. very need focused. other than Kalil not sure they all grade out this high. never the less solid additions.

From what I've looked at, not sure there are many top 10 worthy players.

Weak draft?

TimeKiller · 03-05-2012

Hey, so sorry I didn't even catch that it started!

Did a little reading on the Panther's forum, seems quite clear they've locked in on getting a big time DT to boost their defensive front. Personally, I'd go with Melvin Ingram, David Decastro or even another DT but since this seems like the big flashy name pick I'd like to take the plunge:

DONTARI POE, DT, MEMPHIS

The big man who put up eye popping numbers. Why not? Could be the next Haloti Ngata. Could be the next Amobi Okoye.

They took a 'gamble' last year on Cam, why not roll the dice again. If the guy learns how to play football, he could be a beast.
