What a shitty draft class

I mean from RB's to QB's to receivers, I can't think of anybody that stands out.

Just doesn't jump out at me mainly because the system and it's just one guy.
Next year with Julio and AJ Green on the other hand...

Blount, Dixon and Ben Tate out of Auburn are all big time sleepers.

Dixon and Ben

not really sleepers man. Dixon will go in rd.2. I love Tate and i have him in rd.3. However, most have him in rd 3 or 4.

agreed. however, if your rb runs a 4.8 40 thst sucks. he will be caught by a LB and gain almost no yards. See the end of older rb's careers.


You are still learning youn grasshopper. There once was this receiver named "Jerry Rice". This Mr. Rice fella ran a 4.7 at the combine and was considered too slow to play in the NFL. Mr. Rice shook them haters and is now without a doubt the best wide receiver in NFL history.

In short, it doesn't matter how fast your arse runs in shorts in a straight line, but what you do on the field of play that determines how good of a player you are.

i know i know. I've heard all about Mr.Rice 40 time. That's one thing you have to look at: game speed. Game speed is more important than a timed speed.

For wide receivers, the most important things are: 1. Your hands - if you can't catch then that's yo arse. 2. Running routes - if you can't run the right route then again, that's you arse. 3. Getting separation - if you can shake a cornerback either by speed, bitchslapping him, or just punking his arse out, then that most definetely is yo arse.

After that, everything else is just gravy.

Hoping the Skins take Keiland in the 5th. Let him run in Shanahan's system.

Looks like it, but then again, who knows? I thought Ray Rice was going to suck big time.


Exactly, and I thought Mike Hart was going to do the same things Rice has done

No way, not compared to the lineman in this draft. It seems like their has been a wealth of Olineman in the draft the past few years where you would think there would be a slump. There are like 6 elite DT's alone.


I got hammered for listing Dixon as someone I thought the Saints should pick up if he slips to the 3rd or later. Some brought up Ron Dayne, but I was thinking more along the lines of Deuce. He could at the very least be the next Lendale White or T.J Duckett pounding out the short yards and stealing TDs
