Game Thread: Live NFL Draft 2011 Thread

if another RB had been taken already, there would be cause for concern. People are drafting need and value. RBs don't have the value that other positions have. And apparently no one 'needed' to take a RB at the high dollar slots.

was wondering the same thing.

what caused Bowers to slip? At one point not long ago he was a possible #1 picks

 

[BamaHoosier]

Good pick up by KC. They need another receiver besides Dwayne Bowe, but it would have been cool to see Ingram and Arenas reunited.

 

[Luvubama]

Bowers has some knee issues that got blown out of proportion, well at least what we know...

 

[bamanut_aj]

What! passing on a 1st round pick!

not passing on their 1st round pick, just passing on that slot.

 

[CrimsonJag]

The only thing I can think of is it may be a cap space issue

No.

Tis' true. A good runningback in this day and age has become more of a luxury item than a necessity.

ok...not sure i know the difference. Sorry.

 

[REBELZED]

Ingram to the Saints!

 

[brutetough]

looks like NO is getting Mark after all. relief...

 

[bamanut_aj]

there's the Ingram pick

 

[bamanut_aj]

ok...not sure i know the difference. Sorry.

they ran out of time for their pick in that position, but they don't miss out on a first round pick altogether....it just got moved.

Actually, they thought they had worked out a trade, and the Bears backed out. That left Baltimore scrambling and the clock ran out before they made a decision.

 

[crimsonaudio]

Wow, four guys in the first round!

Roll Tide!

 

[92tide]

woo hoo. ingram vs julio

 

[lafella]

Nice 4 in the first round that's awesome .. but now who do I pull for when the saints and falcons play lol guess saints win out 2-1

 

[BamaHoosier]

Well I was partially correct.

 

[b2v4ua]

MI to NO ....fingers crossed

 

[BRougeBama]

Who Dat RB... Mark to the Saints...

Hot D@mn!

 

[CrimsonNagus]

I like MI going to NO, we get them on TV a lot here!

I used to get tired of the Falcons and Saints being so much. Now it is a good thing.
