Well, after the Eagles went QB the Bears were sure Fleener would slip to them at #49 but the Chargers surprised with a pick that, IMO, makes ZERO sense to a team that needs significant improvement in other areas where they don't already have an All-Pro.
After (stupidly) letting Greg Olsen go last offseason the Bears and Jay Cutler need help at the TE position. With Fleener gone it's on to plan AB (not B) and a prospect that should immediately step in as an every down player as a receiving TE AND a run blocker. The Chicago Bears select Dwayne Allen, TE, Clemson. |
The Eagles need some help at both safety spots, and this is a gut with good size/speed combo who has good coverage skills and is a pretty good tackler.
The Eagles select Markelle Martin, S, Oklahoma State |
I love that ONE DAY after I select Charles, he gets ****ing arrested.

I actually think that Fleener is a good pickup.
Gates is really slowing down fast and the Chargers could make good use of a 2 TE set for the next year or two, especially with Jackson likely gone. Fleener's a great pick; I think KCMan is just pissed because you got his guy. (But seriously, Osweiler in the 2nd round remains just silly...) |

I agree that there are other guys that could've helped the Chargers as well, but that doesn't mean that Fleener can't be just as useful. |

I get 4.43-4.45 every time. His unofficial time at the combine was 4.45. Never do I even get close to 4.61. The highest I ever got was 4.5. |
I thought Fleener was a good pick. Especially since Gates has been getting his labia bruised for the past couple seasons now

Nice pick, ChiefsCountry; I would've probably grabbed him with my Lions pick as I don't think Avril's coming back and he has massive upside. Great 2nd round pick. |
I didn't realize how ****ing stupid the Lounge is right now, guess I have spent way too much time here in DraftPlanet.
|
I find it interesting that RG3 can spill from draft planet into the lounge, but peyton can't spill from the lounge into draft planet. Its a one-way street baby!

Was Marco Poloed? FWIW, I like the Fleener pick now that ASU QB, that's another story.
|
Osweiler will go in the second or third round because he has the physical gifts to be great.
|
I've got the Bengals pick whenever he's up.
|
The Titans need TWO guards. Their LG was terrible last year, so Tennessee's first pick in Cordy Glenn will hope to replace him. RG Jake Scott is a FA and could walk away. Tennessee goes true fan again and drafts another guard, shoring up that area for years.
The Tennessee Titans select Kevin Zeitler, G, Wisconsin. |
I'm a Badger homer, but Zeitler is awesome. Good value. I think he's going to wind up a late first/early second round guy depending on the demand at the position.
|
The Cincinnati Bengals select Lamar Miller, RB, The U.
Per a PM from Sfeihc. |
Just curious, Pest, but what do you like about Lamar Miller over David Wilson? Is it that he's got more experience and doesn't run as upright?
|
Well since none of the 1st round caliber CBs fell to the Lions and Curry came off the board just before they were up, Detroit is set to deal with a pretty significant problem in their defensive backfield. An aggressive offense has to be supplemented by a defense that compements it; I.E. one that can play with a lead and against teams that are going to attack it through the air. With a couple of pocket-collapsing lineman in the middle, their DBs don't have to be able to hold on forever, but definitely need to be better than their present pair.
So with their 2nd round pick, the Lions go with: Chase Minnifield, CB - Virginia. Unlike Dennard, he has the potential to be a legitimate #1 CB. There's a whole lot of Carr in this kid, IMO, but with perhaps a little more straight line speed and better body control. The Lions are happy to have him here. |

Just got home. I'll have my pick in shortly.
I'm trying to find the best reach for my team. |
One thing that was "off" a bit with Atlantas late season run was that their bell cow seemed to wind down considerably. TBH I'm a bit shocked that this guy is still on the board.
Going into that offense, this kid has a chance to be a very busy player in the next few years and is great value at this point. In the second round of the 2012 NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons select David Wilson, RB Virginia Tech |
Michael Turner
Jason Snelling Jacquizz Rodgers |
Christ. That was the Packers pick. First Manning in Denver and now this
|
Michael Turner looks done and the value of this kid in the late second round is outstanding.
|
The Falcons scored 5 points in the playoffs. They need all the talent on offense they can get.
|
I'm on the road at the moment. I'll have my pick in around 9 sorry for the hold up.

Quote:
I'm not sure who is available now but I probably would have looked defense for the Falcons. Their passing D sucked last year. |
Thanks for posting my pick. I like Miller and his home run ability but Wilson is no slouch, he just fumbles a lot. Either would have been a fine pick for the Bengals but Miller and his speed won out over Wilson and his fumbles. I know their 40 times are close but Miller seems to have more game-breaking ability.
|
The Pittsburgh Steelers select Amini Silatolu, G, Midwestern State
The Steelers offensive line was terrible last year and guard is a major need. Siatolu is one of my favorite small school prospects and his stock seems to be rising. I think once this guy gets adjusted to level of competition he will be a very good player for a lot of years. |
The recent run on the position made this GM a bit worried and annoyed; however, these players have dropped enough in this draft to allow quantity to win out.
The Broncos have a stable of brokedicks and marginal talent in their backfield. Ideally, the team would have liked to address the secondary, but the value just isn't there at this point. Thus, we go RB in an effort to get the ball out of Tebow's hands as much as possible. We're hoping that this player might be able to throw, too: Doug Martin, RB, Boise State The Texans are on the clock. |
Aaaaand all the RB value is gone.
Thanks guys. |
A long long time ago
I can still remember How that pick used to make me smile And I knew if I had a place That I could increase that mock draft pace And maybe they'd be happy for a while But March made me shiver With every pick I didn't deliver Bad news in the draft sticky I couldn't make a single picky I can't remember if I cried When I mulled about my jilted pride But something touched me deep inside The day the mock draft died ... |
Sorry the pick is a bit late, just got home from a golf tourney.
The Texans have been in need of a nose tackle for a couple years. This is the year they get one. They typically like quicker guys on the dline over big lugs. With the 58th pick of the 2012 Draft the Houston Texans select, Josh Chapman, Alabama. |
BAN DIRECKSHUN
|
Don't want to tip my hand too much, but I was hoping Chapman would have lasted to the Dolphins pick.
Oh well, lots of good players left on the board. |
i guess chapman's stock is rising...i was hoping he'd be there for the chiefs later..
|
I've got Direckshun's pick. Let me get that shit posted...
|
Per Direckshun's PM.
The New Orleans Saints select Jerel Worthy, DT, Michigan State. |
Christ. Interior offensive linemen and RBs have been flying off the board. I'm still not liking the prospects for 3-4 passrushers in this position, either.
Realistically, the Packers STILL need defensive line help. This is turning into a Piolian draft circa 2009, but in this case the best player that fits the Packers is sitting right there. Rather than pick from a fleet of corners that are all at kind of the same level (Johnson, Boykin, Bentley) they pick the guy that won't be there in the 3rd. With that pick, the Packers will be back to their dominant defensive line they had in 2010. The Green Bay Packers select Jared Crick, DE, Nebraska |
Looks like Jarrett Johnson will be a free agent so this is a pretty logical pick.
Baltimore Ravens select: Shea McClellin OLB Boise State |

The San Francisco 49ers select Jayron Hosley, CB/PR, Virginia Tech.

Goddammit!
Stupid, careless jackass. I had no idea the Panthers traded their 3rd for Greg Olsen. I was stupid for not knowing it, the Panthers were stupid for actually doing it. Ugh. |
New England keeps upgrading its wide receiver core. 2nd round is about taking players who could be 1st rounders but have some flaws. The Patriots are adding another big strong WR to add with Sanu. With this pick, Sanu on the outside with Welker in the slot and the two TEs that New England has, the offense could be nearly unstoppable.
New England Patriots select Dwight Jones, WR, North Carolina |
Great pick by Pats. I'm a big fan of Jones.
Guy is gigantic.
Spoiler!
|
Crick and Harrison Smith have both been taken, bree
|
Giants can pretty much take anybody they want here.
This team is as without holes as any team in the NFL. |
So is Minnefield.

Added two more. |

The Giants are proof that you can never have too many pass-rushers. They've also successfully found a spot in their defense for "tweeners" after converting Kiwanuka to LB.
They value pass rushing production and this guy's versatility fits everything the Giants do on defense... The New York Giants select: RONNELL LEWIS, DE, OKLAHOMA |
Leggo Billay

The Colts really aren't making this easy on Andrew Luck. Switching to a 3-4 there are so many holes that needed the filled on defense. Problem is there's just as many needing to be filled on offense. With that being said I'm not going to put Andrew Luck in a position to fail so once again I'm going offense.
Colts Select Chris Polk Washington |
Luck better be as good as advertised.
The Colts just dumped half their offense and are changing their defense. Luck could end up in pretty dire straits when this is all said and done. |
Will make the pick in a few minutes.
|
Question for Rams Fan, now that he's on the board:
Who do you want the Rams to take at #6, assuming Blackmon and Kalil are off the board? |
Sam Bradford needs better pass protection, and Steven Jackson needs some one to block for him.
The Rams are extremely happy that this guard fell to them here. With the 66th selection in the CP Draft, the St. Louis Rams select: Ryan Miller, G, Colorado |
