RE: NFL draft thread

I'd guess RB wouldn't be in most peoples top 5. It wouldn't crack mine. (For the record, I'd go QB, LT, and either MLB or CB for Top 3. Top 5 would include a pass rushing DE.) For this, I'd go ... 1. QB; 2. LT; 3. DE. QB is obvious. It's a quarterback's league. Always has been and always will be. Even the best QBs need some sort of protection, though, so that's why I have LT second. A KC radio station looks at the drafts of teams when it gets down to the final eight teams in the playoffs each year. It's very interesting. They consistently look at where the 8 teams remaining drafted their starting left tackles. Over the past few years, it's usually been, like, seven of the eight teams took their starting LT with a first or second round pick. Kinda fascinating. And I'd take a pass rushing DE over a corner. NFL football, to me, is about having a quarterback, protecting that quarterback, and disrupting the other team's quarterback. If you can do those three things well, that's a great, great start. Those three things help every other position on the field (LTs give more time for WRs to get open, DEs take up blockers for blitzing linebackers, cut down on amount of time CBs have to cover, etc.) (04-13-2012 12:47 AM)VincentValour Wrote: Wide Receiver Thanks for compiling all this stuff, VV. I'm loving it. Looking forward to your further updates. I'm a little out of the loop, but what the hell happened to Alshon Jeffery's stock? Wasn't he grouped with Blackmon during the CFB season? Did he have a terrible combine? Is he incredibly slow?
