Another Bama QB in Jets Green... I like it... Well, except for my whole hatred of the Jets and all.

The more they mention Brady and Manning when the talk about McElroy the less of an underdog he becomes.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

McElroy is so well spoken. So proud of him getting drafted today. Outstanding ambassador for the University of Alabama.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

3 picks before the 49ers.
So 49ers,Pats and Eagles fan.

Peterson went to the Cards.
Salas went to the Rams.
McElroy went to the Jets.
Prince went to the Giants.



Well McElroy will probably just go to waste on the Jets so that one isn't quite as bad.

ESPN going over the list of 7th round gems, they list off about 5 and skip over one of the most recent.

Peyton Hillis

Tyler Sash? Anybody with anything on him?

Was an absolute ballhawk in College, was always around the ball making picks or other big plays

Peyton Hillis

well in their defense he's only had 1 great season so far

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

Cowboys' final pick is a running back who is too slow to play lead back and too weak to play fullback. Booyah.

Wonder why we didn't address the secondary more, Kendric Burney and Deandre McDaniel are still available according to NFL.com...

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

I like Scott out of maryland. He did some great things in his last bowl game. Maybe we finally drop Reese's man crush over danny ware and let him go.

EDIT: I am actually very very ecstatic about Scott. He can turn out to be an amazing gem out of the 7th round if he can stay healthy. The giants need to get faster at the RB position especially. (Bradshaw isn't breakaway fast)

But several very productive seasons.

People forget about what he did in Denver before McDaniels took over. He was a steal in the 7th round.

Finally Greg Romeus got drafted

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

Really love the Greg Romeus pick especially in the 7th

Is 2 "several"?

He was awesome last year, was productive in his rookie year (343 rush yards, 5 TD's, 179 receiving yards, 1 TD), but sandwiched in the middle is a season of 13 carries for 54 yards with 1 TD and 4 receptions for 19 yards.

He had a good rookie year, then was in McDaniel's doghouse for whatever reason, gets traded to Cleveland and breaks out.

I think he has been productive enough to at least be acknowledged as a 7th round gem.

Not to mention you would figure just off the fact he got the Madden cover for that reason alone they'd mention him.

I was hoping the Seahawks drafted him with their last pick.

Oh well, he's very low risk/high reward at this point. Good pick by the Saints.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft Thread

Who do you guys have for Mr. Irrelevant this year?

I'm guessing either Lawrence Guy, Terrence Toliver, John Clay or Noel Devine.
