We don't have NFLN

What kind of bassackwards cable company do they have in the bayou, there?

Cox, but that's not why. The clinic where my mom works has been shut down so until she finds a new job, we cut down to the basic cable package among other things.

She technically still has a job, but it's just temporary. It's a long story.

Jets better draft 2 out of these 4 players:

Dion Jordan
Cordarelle Patterson
Chance Warmack
Kenny Vaccaro

If I hear the names Mingo or Austin, this will ensue:

Just curious, what do you have against Mingo?

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Discussion

Any chance we can keep this thread spoiler free or is that asking too much?

I don't think its asking too much this year, ESPN and NFL Network aren't going to show picks on camera before they're announced and they aren't going to let their analysts tweet picks out.

Sure others will be tweeting them but it would be awesome if people reading those would use spoiler tags prior to pick being made official.

All that said I think 55 is correct.

Why is he so hyped? I don't remember him being this crazy force at LSU. He's a pass rush specialist. That's really it.

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Discussion

Is Mingo really THAT good is he being hyped up the LSU faithful here? Serious question

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Discussion

My analysis of some of the top prospects in this year's draft:

1. Curvin Johnson - He's really got the length to go up and get all the balls you throw at him, though his route running is a bit suspect.

2. Buster Hymem - Gets really great penetration up the middle and can get quickly to that sweet spot in the back field, really inflicts a lot of pain on the opposition.

3. Neil Antblow - Really sees the job through all the way to the end. A grinder who gets up off his knees and keeps on truckin. A little raw though.

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Discussion

Adam Schefter tweet. Probably nothing to it, but I find it interesting.

Every first round has a surprise or two. Tonight's just might be CB D.J. Hayden, who continues to be linked to Oakland Raiders.

And Mike Hawk?

Too small for my liking. Gets pushed around too much.

Nightmares of Vernon Gholston for me.

As an overall prototypical DL? No, not really.

As a pass rush specialist that burns the edge? Yes. He ran down LaMike while he was still in the backfield. Defensive lineman are not supposed to be that fast.

If he can bulk up 10-15 pounds, you have a potential pro bowler (with experience)

This was 2011, and he's gotten better overall since then:
