2013 NFL DRAFT

[KPENN]

Te'o to Chargers.

 

[West Coast Domer]

Yes!!!! Congrats Manti!!!!

 

[irishknight35]

TEOOOOO is a Charger!

 

[IrishJayhawk]

Okay. That's not bad. Congrats, Manti!

 

[tadman95]

San Diego is as close to home as it gets. Congrats Manti!

 

[gkIrish]

"Close" to Hawaii

 

[STLDomer]

next Junior Seau, RIP

 

[IrishJayhawk]

Jets with Geno...fascinating. If Sanchez wasn't already on notice...

I think that is a pretty dumb move. Hopefully, I am right. I don't really like the Jets.
Anyways, very nice for Manti. San Diego is awesome.

 

[Irishpinoy]

Awesome! Don't like the Chargers but I guess I'm a fan now. We can watch him on weekends.

 

[Irishnuke]

Don't like Manti to SD. First off, I hate the Chargers. Second, fans don't even support that team. Their games do not sell out and as a result are often blacked out on tv. They have repeatedly failed to live up to expectations. It's just a completely ****** franchise. Maybe when they move to LA people will start to care about them but I doubt it.

 

[Pa Golden Tate Fan]

Congrats to Manti.

 

[aubeirish]

Alex Flanagan reporting Pats may move up for Te'o

Damn, I really thought they would have drafted him yesterday. That would have been sweet.

The fact that they don't have an insanely focused fanbase will probably help him initially.

Could you imagine the stupid among a segment of, say, Philly fans if he ended up on the Eagles?

 

[Irish8248]

I love the San Diego pick ... Wish the Seau family let Teo break out the 55

 

[ShawneeIrish]

So now that Manti (congrats to him and I think will be a good fit) is off the board who will be the next ND player taken in the draft?

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I bet Sherm is happy about the Niners getting Carradine.

Zeke

 

[Irish8248]

Cierre or Cave

 

[NDFANnSouthWest]

Good fit for Manti.

 

[calvegas04]

Manti won on that one. San Diego one of the best cities in the US.

 

[arrowryan]

LeVeon Bell to Pitt

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

LeVeon Bell to Pitt

Should have taken Lacy. A LOT of miles on Bell's tires.

Some people thnk Lacy is a product of that great offensive line. Also, people have questioned his work ethic, which could be why he is slipping

Isn't that what Pittsburgh is known for?

Known for what?

 

[phgreek]

I'm pleased for Manti...those who passed on him will wish they hadn't.

I saw this article, which seems to quantify, at least to some degree, tangible losses due to the off field ordeal inflicted on him.

2013 NFL Draft: Why Manti Te'o Will Not Score Big in Guaranteed Money, Product Endorsements - Forbes

The sad thing is, he loses a significant potential income generator in endorsements, and the perpetrator, being defective goods, is not likely to be worth the trouble to take to civil court. Something very unjust there...

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

Well, Lacy doesn't have the best health record either.

From Pittsburgh's point of view, I think the fact that Bell is a potential three down back was the deciding factor.

 

[arrowryan]

Lacy falls again as Montee Ball goes to Denver

 

[STLDomer]

Pack and Hawks with absolute steals IMO in Lacy and Michael if they keep their head on straight
