Game Thread: 2012 NFL Draft Thread

[RedStar]

Twitters value is overwhelmingly evident tonight. ESPN is a dinosaur. Twitter is owning the draft.

Every trade and selection is being reported 2 or 3 minutes on there before ESPN acknowledges it.

Bama has 2 picks in the first 6 with more to come...how awesome is this???

 

[tide rider]

How great is this for recruiting?!!!!

Why these guys chewing gum during interviews? Pet peeve of mine I suppose. Even Trent was doing it.

I can't believe that Gilmore went over Dre...

 

[tide rider]

What is with the hair on some of these athletes? I've seen those dreads pulled for a tackle.

 

[bamanut_aj]

Are the two best, especially Schefter. He announced Barron to the Bucs about 5 minutes before the selection was made.

after I typed that I pulled up Twitter....forgot that I follow Scheftie. Thank you!

 

[BradtheImpaler]

Super glad to see my Bucs take Barron. Our secondary needs him.

Love what LSUFreek tweeted.

Seriously, Goodell is making me nauseous with his molestation of every player with the bear hugs & intimate slow-dance sways.

I laughed.

 

[sanjosecrimson]

Cox is a solid pick for Eagles. I remembered wanting him when Bama offered.

 

[gumptider]

The record is 6, from the Miami Hurricanes.

That's right, in 2004. Alabama would hold the record, though, for 1st round picks in consecutive years with nine.

 

[sanjosecrimson]

Brockers is solid vs the run. nothing more. Bruce who?????????????????????/

 

[lafella]

Really surprised Kirkpatrick is still out there.

edit put hightower meant kirkpatrick my subconscious was listening to them talk about him on the tv

 

[wrathin]

Never heard of Irving but he has a nice highlight reel.
