Black just isn't part of the Niners color scheme in any way. Makes no sense.

 

[Syrinx]

I'd trade the Bucs uniforms for those.

 

[Doomsayer]

Agree with Larry.

Black makes no sense. The red in the middle is the worst part about them.

First round winner - Oakland Raiders

Oakland has drafted pretty well since Al Davis passed away. Amari Cooper is a perfect pick. Carr had a promising rookie season, especially when you consider his complete lack of weapons. If Al Davis were still in charge he probably would have moved up in the draft to get Mariota. Instead, the Raiders made the smart move. Build on what you have.


First round loser - Indianapolis Colts

After having nearly 50 points dropped on them in the AFC championship game. After being run on, at will. The Colts took a player that will be lucky to make the fourth receiver spot in an already loaded offense. On the board at the time - quite possibly the next Vince Wilfork.

 

[Tamanon]

Just got home from hitting the bar after work. I hope to God Fowler works out better than the other Gators the Jags have drafted throughout the years since Freddy T.

YEah it would look okay if the league let them change helmets but not with the gold ones.

 

[sf2fanatic]

SMH @ mediocre ass players demanding trades.

Yup. Like Mettenberger

 

[Duxxy3]

Yup. Like Mettenberger

Calling it now - Mettenberger will be a better pro player than Mariota.

 

[Hunter S.]

You got another known stoner on your defense. Congrats!

On another note I am warming up to the Kevin Johnson pick at CB. Quite a few evaluators had him ranked really high because of the smooth and quick way he moves and has a high football IQ

Ehhhhh.... Von has learned how to not fuck up. He will mentor Ray on life without the weed.

The draft party I went to sucked, because I had raider fans in my ear all night about this shit alternate uniform and the shitty ass Armstead pick.

 

[tiggerkiddo]

I don't get the hate at all, I think they look just fine.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

The black doesn't make any sense. It's like they went with it just to look cool.

 

[minx]

Wouldn't mind the Bears trading a 6th for Stacy if available.

 

[BlackGhost]

Is it time for round 2 yet? I need a kicker

 

[Striker]

Giants in good position to get another good talent.

Hopefully it's DB or DL, preferably Rowe or Odighizuwa.

 

[squicken]

Peter King has a thing on TEN love of Mariotta and debunks all the rumored trade proposals. Really can't be trusted since everyone loves their players and draft picks right now. My guess is Chip said anyone is available but the price was just too high

http://mmqb.si.com/2015/05/01/marcus-mariota-tennessee-titans-nfl-draft/

The Eagles, as Kelly said Thursday night in Philadelphia, never offered players as part of a package to obtain Mariota. In fact, The MMQB learned Thursday night that Kelly never offered the widely rumored packages of either three first-round picks or two first-round picks and Sam Bradford, in an attempt to obtain the second pick of the draft. I can tell you this much is true: The Titans basically scared off suitors because they continually told teams they wanted to take Mariota, and it would take a stupid offer to obtain the pick. In the end, Tennessee GM Ruston Webster and coach Ken Whisenhunt stuck to their guns.

 

[BigAT]

Giants in good position to get another good talent.

Hopefully it's DB or DL, preferably Rowe or Odighizuwa.

I wonder if they would take a gamble on Gregory if he's still available. He'd be a good fit, but he truly seems to be a fuckup.

Yeah obviously Chip is going to say they didn't offer so and so.

But I'm convinced they offered the farm but what good is that if Tennessee really liked Mariota and wanTed him.

Interesting point in that same Peter King article about Andy Reid talked Ken Wisenhunt into picking MM no matter what Philly offered.

First of all fuck you fat fuck Reid. But he is right. In 99 Ditka offered 2 farms to move up to get Ricky Williams.

Cleveland wanted Couch and declined.
Philly wanted McNabb and declined.
INDY surprisingly wanted Edgerin James bad enough that they also declined to move down .

Washington took the offer. Do we even remember who they picked?

Point being for Tennessee what good is stock piling picks when you don't have a franchise qb and are in love with MM.

Good for tenn and hopefully MM is the real deal. Sucks for Chip and the Eagles.

Bradford it is.

Badass, I love them.

 

[Fox318]

Ten drafted him because they want to sell the team and with a QB thats recognizable its an easy sell to somebody who wants to move the team.

 

[effzee]

Ten drafted him because they want to sell the team and with a QB thats recognizable its an easy sell to somebody who wants to move the team.

Sure that's one of the reasons but according to what I'm reading, next year's prospects aren't considered to be amazing.

If Mariota works for them they will be back on the map nationally. They have no QB no identity and a coach/GM on the hot seat.

Hitting on a QB they like is far more important than stock piling picks. It's why I wasn't opposed to Chip trading as much as what was rumored. Who cares if we have a good pass rush when the QB situation isn't solved?

PFT: Eagles made big offer to Bucs

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the Eagles offered the following to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the first pick in the draft: the 20th pick in this year’s draft; Philly’s first-round pick in 2016; quarterback Sam Bradford; and another player on the roster.

It’s unclear who the other player would have been. Possibly linebacker Mychal Kendricks. Possibly Lane Johnson or Fletcher Cox, but the Eagles were expressing reluctance to include either of those pieces.

It’s unknown whether that same offer was made to the Titans, who held the No. 2 pick and ultimately used it on Mariota. It’s reasonable to assume something similar to that was placed on the table.

When is the next round of the draft starting today?

7PM

 

[Talon]

Gotta be happy with the Beasley pick.

Understand we'd basically be playing 2 SS, but I think Collins is going to be a stud. We'll see - we can pretty much use another pick at any level of the defense. Corner's pretty much the only relatively settled group.

Mayock was saying Olympic level speed. Maybe his comparison was off.

Gurley's got ridiculous finishing speed - the Marshawn comparison works pretty well. He'll break a stupid amount of tackles and then somehow find a burst to get another 5-10 yards.

 

[Dega]

6 for us

[DeaconKnowledge]

Sick of all these teams with Black Alts. Makes sense for the Ratbirds, not so much for any other team.

 

[Fox318]

49ers want to steal the Oakland fans when the team moves.

PFT: Eagles made big offer to Bucs

That really isn't even close to a big offer for moving from #20 to #1. A lower first round pick, a future first, a rental on a shitty player that costs $13,000,000 and a player to be named later? That's barely enough to move into the top 10.

Eagles kept trying to pass off their garbage assets like they were something valuable but no one was buying.

 

[eznark]

So have Eagles fans started bashing Mariotta yet?

 

[RBH]

Vic Beasley, Clemson
SackSEER Projection: 34.0 Sacks through Year 5
SackSEER Rating: 95.7%

Vic Beasley gives you almost everything you want in an edge rusher prospect. He was consistently productive at Clemson, recording 32 sacks and nine passes defensed over a four-year college career. Beasley really shined at the combine, where he recorded a 4.53-second 40-yard dash; a 41-inch vertical jump; a 12-foot, 10-inch broad jump; and a 6.91-second three-cone, all of which are well above average.

I can't believe the Dolphins actually drafted the guy I was hoping for months ago. I think this is a first.

Seems like a lot of Falcons fans are hoping for either Landon Collins or Eric Kendricks in the 2nd round.


And we should celebrate the Beasley pick by getting some hot dogs...........with ketchup on them!

[The_Darkest_Red]

Really hope the Dolphins can land a solid OG and LB next.

 

[BigAT]

Is it just me or was last night one of the most boring first rounds ever? I love the draft, but I had a really had time paying attention after pick 13 or so.

It may have been that both the broadcasts this year were really terrible, especially their complete refusal to announce picks as they came in. It was absurd, even the third overall pick was like 5 minutes behind from when the actual selection was made. They were 3-4 picks behind by the end of the night and had absolutely no interest in trying to catch up or accurately portray the draft on the broadcast as it was actually happening.

 

[gutshot]

Who?

 

[LevelNth]

I'm glad Baalke went with the high upside DL pick in Armstead. It's boom or bust, but we need another potential big hit on that line to maintain the way our D plays. Love the inconsequential trade down too that netted a couple extra picks.

I don't understand the Eagles or Colts choices, seems superfluous and it didn't even really scream BPA. At least the Eagles excuse is that Kelly is a proven idiot GM, but the Colts? Unless I'm confusing them with someone else and Grigson is the still the GM? I thought he was replaced.

Having the draft tables outside and Goodell running there and back was the stupidest thing ever.

I think taking it out of new york hurt since the building was smaller.

Plus the set looked like something out of a small wrestling promotion

Hopefully that stupid Easter show gets canceled and the draft is back in NY.

I kind of liked it because it went back to the good old days of three years ago where you knew all the picks as soon as they happened instead of when NFLN decided to tell you.

Saints have an all-black alternate but it works for them. A lot of teams with red uniforms are doing it though like the Cardinals and I dont think it works very well.

"The Dolphins need a prototypical #1 WR. A big, fast guy who can do it all. You aren't going to get that unless you invest a first round pick. DeVante Parker is a tall, physical receiver who excels at high-pointing the ball and making big time catches. He's the kind of guy you want playing outside the numbers, in my opinion."

I tend to think this report is accurate, simply because Jay Glazer said the same thing last night. Peter King simply does damage control for the teams so he really isn't reliable on this sort of thing. Tough sell on Bradford to the Philly fans when everyone knows Chip really didn't want him
