2007 NFL Draft Day One Thread

[Runner]

the mob in tennessee will be calling for some heads pretty soon

I don't know that I'd pay too much attention to the fans. The Titans have been a successful organization in the past and they have a pretty knowledgeable staff. They have some good coaches that have been successful in their own right. I wouldn't write them off - like the fans here did last year, picking them the obvious worst team in the division.

It is interesting how teams rate players. Many people here labeled Brown and Ginn a reach at #10 and Brown especially went lower. Too bad it takes around three years to evaluate a draft; it'll make for some discussion fodder for a long time though.

On a nother nore, Gonzalez should fit in very nicely at Indy.

 

[HoustonFrog]

This is what on the official site.

I'm assuming once a guy like Steve Smith went they just decided to load up again since theyt covered alot in FA and have made good moves today. Probably just following their chart.

Yeah but Floyd Reese was the architect. He is no longer there.

 

[Maddict5]

damn, i was hoping either wright, wilson would be there for us @#73, mccauley's still could be there i guess

 

[LORK 88]

Give me a speedy #2 WR today or a FS who can defend the deep pass and I will be happy.

 

[Runner]

Yeah but Floyd Reese was the architect. He is no longer there.

Jeff Fisher and his staff will get the best out of the players they have. I will take that over a team (I'm NOT talking about the Texans here) of more talented under achievers.

 

[ledzeppelin229]

Damn. Carolina picked Kalil.

 

[LORK 88]

Damn. Carolina picked Kalil.

their having themselves a very good draft.

 

[Specnatz]

Andy Reed just made a mistake and might get a fine by the NFL.

 

[76Texan]

Damn, I went 33 for 35 I bet I get screwed for the last 15, I only did a top 50.

Kolb didn't make my top 50, and Eriv Wright did so I know I can;t do that well the rest of the way.


Chris Houston goes to Atlanta, and he to didn't make my top 50. My bad he did at 47.

you good!

he was just messing around. I hope the commish recognizes a joke from a real incident of tampering

 

[76Texan]

Kolb to the Eagles makes sense. Kolb needs a couple of years on the sideline, and Reid has to have concerns regarding McNabb's ability to stay healthy.

Typical of Kiper to criticize the pick when they don't go off his board. Kolb and Beck had outperformed Stanton and Edwards all year. It was Kolb over Beck due to his upside in athleticism and age. Beck should be the next QB to go, probably to Miami or Detroit.

that Reid decides on this pick tell me he's veRry impresseD!

 

[Specnatz]

Just because I want everyone to know it ... Astros 10 - Brewers 1

 

[Maddict5]

what did he do???

 

[Specnatz]

what did he do???

He said he would love to have a WR like Keyshawn johnson.

 

[Maddict5]

He said he would love to have a WR like Keyshawn johnson.

and thats tampering how?

 

[Specnatz]

and thats tampering how?

Your not allowd to talk about another player on another team. He was kidding but forgot about the rule and was just messing with Keysawn.

 

[The Critic]

Dan Bazuin?

Someone's going to take a flyer on McCauley, very soon.

 

[Specnatz]

Dan Bazuin?

They did he is listed on Craigslist.com now

 

[HoustonFrog]

Texans within 10.

Hopefully thats not us.

yeah but coaches do that all the time...how many times last season did you hear GK say stuff like 'we loved him coming out of college and would love to have him here' or something like that...storm in a teacup methinks

anyway mccauley's still on the board...take him or david irons in the 3rd..seems like there's better depth at wr tomorrow

A guy coming out of college is one thing but a pro-player under contract with another team is completely different.

Great pick-up by the Bears with the rb Jackson. Oppps that was GB, still a great pick-up.

 

[The Critic]

I think we see McCauley gone here to the Saints.

 

[Lucky]

7 picks to go.This is what my Texans board would look like:

Jason Hill WR Washington State
Marcus McCauley CB Fresno State
Tanard Jackson FS Syracuse
Jonathan Wade CB Tennessee
Doug Free T Northern Illinois
Josh Gattis FS Wake Forest
Tim Shaw OLB Penn State

 

[Silver Oak]

please let Daymeion Hughes be there....

 

[mexican_texan]

[The Critic]

He might be there tomorrow.

 

[Specnatz]

He might be there tomorrow.

I think he will be. I think they take a WR here.

I like Wade in the 3rd and Sabby Piscitelli FS, Oregon State in the 4th. That would give us a very young secondary with a lot of potential in Drob -- Wade -- Piscitelli -- Earl/Brown.

I've heard a lot of clammer for a WR in the 3rd but I don't think it's nearly as big a need as the secondary.

Woops. Sabby is gone. My bad. And he wasn't even on Mel's big board.

 

[The Critic]

I think we see McCauley gone here to the Saints.

Or they could take another CB from Kent State instead. Hard to believe McCauley has fallen this far.

I'm horrible at draft prognostication.

Definitely never would've called the Marinovich pick.

 

[GTFan]

Please, a CB here. There's some pretty decent ones on the board.

 

[Kaiser Toro]

We need to go secondary.

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

Damn, there goes McCauley.

 

[Specnatz]

Houston on the clock!

 

[dickieb]

Here we go...

 

[GTFan]

dang, McCauley taken in front of us. I wasn't a fan, but that only leaves Hughes, Wade and T Jackson in the secondary.

It'll be WR now.

 

[Silver Oak]

they're going too fast....I need to go slower!!!

 

[mexican_texan]

three minutes away...

 

[Maddict5]

looks like we'll have plenty of wr/cb/fs options based on the last few picks (afraid a good shot of them would be taken)

 

[Specnatz]

I say it will be Jacoby. Kubes loves him.

 

[GTFan]

Figures, Texans pick will be taken during a commercial. Thank goodness for the tracker.

 

[Kaiser Toro]

Do we take a flyer on Bush?

Nice

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

Jacoby Jones is now a Texan.

 

[Kaiser Toro]

I'll take Jacoby Jones

 

[Señor Stan]

Jones it is
