I think Jordan is the best 5 technique in the draft and would do a very good job of replacing seymour. My one concern is he is from USC and as a previous poster mentioned their players are often very overrated.

My hope for pick 28 is to move up to 23 or 24 and grab either Jordan, or Bowers who at one point was considered a top 5 pick.

Lots of good DE's in this draft hopefully pats snag one with 28 or 33

Watkins gets drafted by the Eagles.

He was drafted 4th overall by the BC Lions in the 2010 CFL entry draft.

[Cortez]

Canadian boy drafted by the Eagles.
26 years old- oldest first round pick since 1980.
Good for him- I heard about Danny Watkins a couple months ago, he didn't even start playing football until a few years ago- just a good story

Congrats to Danny Watkins from Kelowna. 23rd overall pick to the Eagles.

I actually like pick. Plenty of corners and lbs to grab in the next few rounds.

[Montana Moe]

Very happy with Jordan. NFL Pedigree, can play a couple positions.

[Diet Water]

Surprising pick, hopefully the Ravens take Smith.

[Montana Moe]

Lmao

@bobby_bigwheel: New orleans draft questionnaire 1) can you tackle marshawn lynch? 2) are you sure?

[Diet Water]

Fail.

Was worried for a second there we might have missed out on Smith with the trade debacle, nice pick for the Ravens.

[Papi34]

Of course NE trades the pick. Packers fans hate the Pats right now

[Reign of Fire]

Happy to see my Jags move to pick Gabbert, hopefully can step in soon and we get past the Garrard-era.

Ha ha, thats funny. How old is your son again? The Lions could have themselves one nasty defence.

I was hoping the Chiefs would take Costanzo. I was right...the Colts picked him later. If I'm agreeing with the Colts...that's a good thing.

Man ... love me some Mark Ingram. Glad he goes to a good team.

[Montana Moe]

Ingram was late 1st/early 2nd talent, but that beard is top 5.

[Saint Troy]

Love the Ingram pick, not sure why the Pats didn't take him themselves, but that is their thing. The Saints having two thirds made this move doable IMO.

What did the pats get back for that trade?

Whoa, seriously? Wow! I went to school with him. Wish I watched football enough to know he was even in the draft.

EDIT: Just watched the video on TSN...I like how they all talk about how old he is. He looks no different from when he was at Mt. Boucherie!

With the Broncos taking Miller at #2 if they can get Bowers with their second I'll be ecstatic. Knee issues or not that instantly makes this draft a win.
