Phew got away with that one... JJ to Atl is way better than Cleveland.
Gruden is a tard... and thats all I have to say about that

 

[REBELZED]

Why in the world are they showing Julio's few drops right now? Good gracious...

 

[CrimsonSEC]

Man there must be mega delay with DTV I haven't even gotten the Julio pick yet.:conf3:

 

[Luvubama]

Alright!!!

 

[MVKTR2]

Gruden is correct, the # of drops Julio had with healthy hands through his 3 years at Alabama is what separates him from AJ Jones. If not for his combine #s I expected him to be outside of the top 10, around #15.

 

[RedStar]

Anyone see what the Falcons gave up to get Julio?

WOW

FIVE draft picks. 1st, 2nd & 4th rounder this year, 2nd and 4th rounders next year. They must have really wanted him.

 

[BamaCorvin]

Julio gets to go to a playoff team! I love this pick for him

 

[Squirrely]

Wooo hooooo
Sooooooo happy Jones is going to a great team. Plus, it's says a bunch with what what they gave up to get him too....

:BigA: ROLL TIDE :BigA:

Well they are seriously a contender now. They now have 2 legit WR and a legit RB with the arm of Matt Ryan... I think they have just probably become one of the favorites in the NFC.

The price is pretty steep and may actually be what the Browns need to be a contender AND what the Falcons need to win a SB!

Sad to see Dareus go to the black hole, but Jones to Atl is perfection.

Shula coaching $cam...hmmmmm!

Locker to Tennessee. I like his attitude and his work ethic. Don't know that I would have taken him at #8, but I guess they figured he'd be gone by the 2nd round.

 

[JV's Tide]

Wow I thought fairley was for sure going to the titans. They hired auburn's dline coach. Guess that shows what he really thought of him.

I think he could turn out to be a really good QB, but I feel that way about Gabbert too. Not discouraged by the pick, just surprised that they picked him when they could have gone with Gabbert.

Or you know, that they needed a QB.

 

[BamaJeff]

Fairley continues to drop....

 

[cindym]

How does nick Fairly not trip over that bottom lip?

What, did that thug think we was going to be the pick above scam? HAHAHA wish i could see it i don't get espn or nfl network. It is funny that Dareus got picked before him too, and Julio! HAHAHAH very amusing

 

[RedStar]

Think about this. Biggest thug in CFB this year goes to the most crime ridden, gang infested city in America. This doesn't sound good for the kids future.
