Wow. Nice job, Holmgren. That's a haul for Cleveland. Atlanta is obviously in "win now" mode.

Newton needs that time even more given his less experience overall and especially no experiene in a pro offense. His character issues also make him too risky for a #1 pick. I really don't want to sit through another season of Panthers games on TV watching that potential disaster happen in front of me.

This.

According to FOF, Atlanta underpaid.

Noop · 04-28-2011, 07:43 PM

Gabbert will slide a little. God I hope the Dolphins don't pick him although I do want us to draft a QB.

FOF is wrong.

But hey Atlanta is a team with the luxury to make this kind of lopsided deal-they dont have many holes and now they are going to be scary good on offense.

Thomkal · 04-28-2011, 07:45 PM

OMG Titans take Jake Locker

Young Drachma · 04-28-2011, 07:45 PM

Noop · 04-28-2011, 07:46 PM

Wow. Jake Locker?

Wow. Atlanta got raped.

Young Drachma · 04-28-2011, 07:46 PM

I love the fit.

Thomkal · 04-28-2011, 07:46 PM

I think a lot of people just lost $10 million dollars lol

Galaxy · 04-28-2011, 07:46 PM

Did Al Davis buy the Titans?

mckerney · 04-28-2011, 07:47 PM

First highlight of Locker they have is him running the zone read, that will sure help him in Tennessee....

mckerney · 04-28-2011, 07:48 PM

And it's followed up with interceptions and missing receivers with no pressure. Glad he went here, I was worried he'd go to the Vikings.

Lathum · 04-28-2011, 07:48 PM

Today has honestly been one of the worst of my life, but seeing Jake get drafted 8th over all gave me a moment of happiness.

Radii · 04-28-2011, 07:49 PM

NFL Network shows a good run then three horrible throws/decisions in their highlight package of Locker. I found that to be pretty hilarious.

I don't get to do this with Noop posts very often but ...

+1

If the Falcons are in "win now" mode, why give up that much to get a guy who may not be able to learn the offense?

Aren't you a Locker Stocker?! I'd vote for him... DAMN YOU GRUDEN, GET OFF MY TV! I think I'll turn off the TV and get updates online...

bulletsponge · 04-28-2011, 07:53 PM

dallas needs a tackle badly, their Oline has been a liability the last few years.

Thomkal · 04-28-2011, 07:55 PM

Hey goodell stop smiling when the fans boo you.

You can watch NFL Network online.

Warhammer · 04-28-2011, 07:56 PM

I think Locker will be a good fit in Tennessee.

man ESPN coverage worse than ever, wish I had NFL Network.

Thomkal · 04-28-2011, 08:00 PM

heh obviously I didn't see that before I posted.

Young Drachma · 04-28-2011, 08:02 PM

Gabbert it is.

stevew · 04-28-2011, 08:02 PM

Really poor take home for Cleveland. They needed another 2nd in next year to match value.

Eaglesfan27 · 04-28-2011, 08:04 PM

Love to see Tyron go in the top 10, sad to see it is to Dallas.

Young Drachma · 04-28-2011, 08:04 PM

Why are they comparing him to Sam Bradford.

Lathum · 04-28-2011, 08:07 PM

They both completely ruin any suspense.

Warhammer · 04-28-2011, 08:08 PM

I watched several games with Gabbert. He does not have it. There have been times watching Locker I thought he could have it.

JonInMiddleGA · 04-28-2011, 08:09 PM

Did the Texans just draft Brock Lesnar?

rjolley · 04-28-2011, 08:10 PM

Just turned on the draft...why did they show Watt acting like he got picked before he got picked? They can't stand to wait 30 seconds for it to be announced first?

Also, ton of picks given up by ATL. I like Green opposite White, but man, that's a lot.

Value chart aside, for a team with as many holes as the Browns have to add a bunch of upper round picks is worth it IMO.

That makes it even worse.

Scoobz0202 · 04-28-2011, 08:15 PM

Yea, I personally think the Browns hit the fucking jackpot. I'd be happy as a possum eating shit if I was a Brown's fan.

bulletsponge · 04-28-2011, 08:17 PM

WTF?! minnesota wtf are you doing?

Thomkal · 04-28-2011, 08:17 PM

holy cow now really no one will win the 10 million

JonInMiddleGA · 04-28-2011, 08:17 PM

Okay, didn't see that one coming.

remper · 04-28-2011, 08:18 PM

bahahaha! Ponder...

path12 · 04-28-2011, 08:18 PM

I think the Seahawks just got some extra motivation to resign Hasselbeck.

remper · 04-28-2011, 08:18 PM

As a Bears fan can't say that I disapprove

mckerney · 04-28-2011, 08:18 PM

Ugh, kinda feels like reaching for a QB here.

bulletsponge · 04-28-2011, 08:20 PM

popnder better not suck, or that coach is fired.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Now, watch he turns into Montana or Farve or something...

Speaking of the Bears, trade up for Amukamara?

bulletsponge · 04-28-2011, 08:20 PM

now i know what Miami and Oakland fans feel like

bhlloy · 04-28-2011, 08:21 PM

Year of the mediocre QB. It also makes me laugh that so many owners were going to sign off on taking a raw QB in the top 15 and then wanted to lock the players out so these QB's would have no time to actually learn the system.
