Re: 2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

Not a Vikings fan but I think Derek Carr can do wonders with Norv Turner as their OC, he likes to spread the ball out & Derek played in a Spread at Fresno St. Plus Cordarelle, Greg Jennings, Kyle Rudolph & John Carlson are some weapons with potential, not to mention Adrian Peterson to help him out lol

Granted it's a highlight video, so they should look good, but this running back looks really good and nobody really talks about there being any good running backs in this year's draft:

There's good running backs, there's just no reason to draft them high anymore.

But as far as (seemingly) good NFL running backs go, the conversation starts with Ka'Deem Carey:

Touches on Tre Mason:

and Bishop Sankey:

then ends with Carlos Hyde:

After that, it's a crapshoot with Seastrunk, Sims, Williams, Hill and West. There will also be the usual undrafted talent too. Some familiar names who probably won't get drafted this year.

I think Hyde and Sankey end up the best out of the 4 I posted videos of personally.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

It's entirely possible you get your pick between all 3.

I wouldn't want that job!

I'd rather be the Raiders/Browns and take whoevers left. There's no clear favorite to be they 1st QB take. I know most teams will be able to narrow it down to two guys, but evn that's tricky

Clowney says he will put up amazing numbers at the combine

Re: 2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

Rams are taking Clowney. I don't think you can pass up that talent when it's right there in front of you. This WR class is way too deep for the Rams to reach on Watkins when they have a serviceable corps already.

Raiders mistakenly passed on Calvin some years ago, they're taking Sammy.

I like Ebron to Tampa a lot.

I don't know about Carr at #8.

I think the Lions go WR here. Lee or Evans.

Rams will take Clinton-Dix. Their tackle situation is much better than their secondary situation.

Steelers might go corner or WR but if you think Robinson will be available, they will take him.

Cowboys need to take Timmy Jernigan.

I don't think the Packers will pass on Jace Amaro.

I don't think Robey belongs anywhere near the first round. Maybe Verrett to Denver?

Steelers OL stabilized the second half of the season and played well so they aren't going with OL. I agree that they are going with a DB or WR

Re: 2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

Sorry..I just think Clowney ends up in Houston and they will use a 2nd round pick on a QB. Mcnair is in love with the guy and several members of the new coaching staff like what they see.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread

I want the Bears to draft this guy. It doesn't matter where either, just get him.

Chicago does need Safety help in the worst way, this dude looks like he could be had in the 2nd. I'd like to see them go the best DT or LB with the 14th pick then safety in the 2nd round. I think Calvin Pryor would look outstanding in a Bears uniform as well.

I think the Steelers have a tendency to draft best available, which is why they might take Robinson, who is a top 10 prospect, if he drops to them.

I agree, WR and CB are their main needs.

If Ha-Ha is available da bears need to take him, but if he's not Bucannon is very much under the radar and should be available in the 2nd or 3rd round, so they should take a DT or LB

I think the Texans will go the safe-route with the #1 pick. The QB class is too deep for them to pass up one early. Shaub obviously sucks, and Keenum isn't the answer, and the Texans aren't as stupid as the Jaguars.

But either way, the top 2 picks already have elite DEs, and I am very scared that one will pick up Clowney. Clowney/Watt or Clowney/Quinn will have every teams QBs scared for their lives.

Also, if Colt Lyerla stays off the drugs, I think whoever takes him in the late rounds will have a steal. They just need to come down hard on the kid, because he obviously can't stay off the coke.

No team in their right mind is going to draft Lyerla.

If the kid can smarten up and realize his potential, I can see him doing good regardless if drafted or an undrafted FA. He had the skill set at Oregon, he was even called a top recruit before he decided to leave Oregon. That in itself was a very, very stupid move.

This applies to so many people throughout the years, though. Just switch Oregon with that prospect's school. For instance, Ryan Leaf/Washington State.
