2013 NFL DRAFT

[dudesthisisthebest]

Hmmm is KC going to trade down or pick?

I bet they pick there. Not necessarily because they want to but the trade value just won't be there.

 

[blueNDgold44]

Over/under 10 trades in the 1st round?

 

[dublinirish]

please go the NFL Mock Draft thread and help out thanks! wanna finish round 2 if possible!

 

[arrowryan]

I will be so pissed if the Steelers trade out of the first. I like that idea to get more picks, but I don't want to wait all that time just to see them trade their pick. Lol

I doubt they do it though. My prediction is Jarvis Jones or our boy Tyler

Man today is one of my favorite days of the year!

Mayock has Eigert at 13 to the Jets and Te'O 20 to the bears...just to add to your list.

 

[PANDFAN]

anyone else going to a draft party??

 

[pkt77242]

As a Vikings fan, their needs are WR, DT, CB, G, and ILB. I also would like to see them use a late round pick on someone like Kenjon Barner.

2013 NFL Two-Round Mock Draft | Audibles - SI.com

This 2 round mock has the Vikings picking DeAndre Hopkins and Sylvester Williams in the 1st round and Jonhthan Banks in the 2nd. I would be excited if it turned out this way.

I don't like that draft as a Steelers fan

 

[gkIrish]

McShay dropped Joeckel to 11th in his Mock Draft???

I have noticed he has been dropping in quite a few actually.

HAHAHAHAHA

[gkIrish]

I have noticed he has been dropping in quite a few actually.

He just explained that he is really dropping him to #2. Expects the Chargers to trade up

 

[NewBrunswickIrish]

I don't like that draft as a Steelers fan

Yeah, why draft Brown or Ertz. That would be a crappy draft, makes no sense since they drafted Sean Spence and Brown in my view is a slightly larger Spence. I would rather they go Eifert in the first (I know that he wasnt available in this one) and a linebacker in the second if that was what they wanted in the first two rounds or atleast trade down to pick Brown. Although I wouldn't mind if they trade back with one team and stay in the first but pick up another second (Minny seems to want to move up with one of their picks so take their second and move to 23 or something).

 

[gkIrish]

If McShay is even close to being right about his mock draft this will be the craziest draft of all time.

Oddly I have heard that the Vikings are willing to trade back with one of their picks not up.

I guess that is the worst/best part ofr this draft, no one seems to know anything about what the teams are looking to do

I hope not. I like Manti, but the Vikings have too many holes to fill to trade any of their draft picks. SMH

^This. He think the Chargers will move up to #2 to get him. They don't predict trades that's why he has chargers at 11.

Just tells us that most people put way too much stock in ratings

 

[IrishSteelhead]

This won't be a popular, but I predict Eifert becomes a concussion risk in the NFL, and does not play very long before his first one. Lucky for him (and whoever gets him), I'm wrong 99.9% of the time.

Cool story.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Cool story.

It certainly was......now settle down

In other news I see the Bears are taking a long hard look at Teo, barring Warmack, Cooper, Eifert and Fluker are gone at that point (which appears to be a strong possibility)

 

[Buster Bluth]

Notre Dame should have two first-round picks, as we already know.

Ohio State will more than likely have none.

Southern Cal will have between zero and two.

It's good that Notre Dame should make up ground on Ohio State tonight.

Look at the disparity between the top 4 and the rest, its pretty big.

Seems to be the consensus for the past two days the Fisher will go #1.

IMO he is the best tackle in the draft.
