Oh well, you better get the OL, DT and CB sorted the rest of the draft!

Agreed. I hate this pick for the Texans but honestly their weren't really any great picks available for us. I'd have chose Maurkice Pouncey or Sean Weatherspoon though in that situation.

This draft fell really badly for people who don't like RBs or Mathews. I'd take Pouncey here but I think we'd be in the huge minority and a lot more people would hate that pick.

With the 26th pick, the Cardinals select...


Golden Tate, WR




The players I needed that are first-round talent have been taken so with a new QB under center and in need of a playmaking WR, the Cardinals select Golden Tate who is probably the most productive WR of this years class.

With the 27th pick the Jerryboys take Bruce Campbell, OT/Truckasaurus/Killer of the Undead, Maryland



Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! If you miss this, you'd better be dead... or in jail...
And if you're in jail, break out!

Just to give yall a little insight on how I see it.

My choices were Mathews, Mays, Weatherspoon, Pouncey, Bryant, Price, Robinson, and McCourty.

Taylor Mays has questionable ball skills, which is what I want in a FS. With Pollard getting resigned for the SS position it doesnt make sense.

Sean Weatherspoon would be addition at an already stacked position in my eyes. Cushing, Ryans and Diles are a great group. Don't see the need to add another linebacker in round 1.

Maurkice Pouncey was interesting, but where am I going to put him? You know we don't plug rookie centers in the lineup. And we have enough guards with our FA signing of Wade Smith, and Mike Brisel coming back.

Dez Bryant was really low on my list of needs. Even though he was high on my big board. Firs off the dude is kinda slow and dim witted. Secondly I am a big fan of Kevin Walter who we signed to a multi-year deal, and also think Jacoby Jones is a star in the making. So scratch him off.

Devin McCourty/Patrick Robinson were interesting, but I feel that this being a deep draft at CB, we can get a player in a later round to compliment Quin and Reeves.
Brian Price shows flashes of being able to shoot the gaps, but from the video I saw he ends up on his knees too much. Plus I would probably hang myself with another DT selection in the first round.

So i decided to grab the running back and shore up the position. We desperately need a stud RB. There is no denying that. Mathews and Slaton should give us that RBBC so we can grind out games, and put some on ice on our way to the playoffs.

One of the best Simpsons quotes of all time. You are on fire sir.

Thanks for the insight into your thought process.

As to this point, I would look to put Caldwell into C, have Pouncey play one of the guard spots and one of the vets (or best case scenario, Pitts) play the other one.

This is my thinking as well. As much as I'd rather spend our 1st on someone else and get Tate/Dwyer/Gerhart later... I really don't know what I would of done with this pick and most likely would have taken Mathews like you did. If Kubiak isn't 100% in love with Mathews though, I pray we could find a trade down partner. Maybe someone would like to snag Dez Bryant up b/c they know he's going to get taken soon, or Taylor Mays? or someone we're not even thinking about ala Joe Flacco.

Good point! And it is possible that Clausen might fall, or a team enamored with Colt might want to trade back into the first.

So I think we all agree that if the draft falls this way we need to seriously consider any trade back offers. But I think if we did take Mathews we would still have quality picks to upgrade other positions.

With the 28th pick in the NFL Mock draft the San Diego Chargers select Terrance Cody DT Alabama.

Cody helps replace Jamal Williams and is a perfect fit at NT in the Chargers 3-4 defense.

Although many will disagree I have Cody rated as the number 1 NT in this draft

Out of how many NT's this year...three? JK, if Cody can control his weight and develop his stamina he would be a good selection.

Thanks, SM, but dayum.

Benn was 3rd on my list and I really didn't want to pick him. According to the Jets fans, WR is their #1 priority in the draft. They are unimpressed with Braylon Edwards and from what I got. Benn is the 3rd best receiver in this draft but the problem is, he's the second coming of Braylon Edwards. But he was the top of the board for me at this spot. So there you go.

I really wanted Tate or Odrick here. Terrence Cody was my 4th pick. And my fifth was Hughes.

The board just really didn't fall out well for the Jets this time around.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. When you sent that to me people started taking your players left and right.
