Rotoworld is awash with conflicting rumors. Tonight is going to be very interesting.

[Mike FF Today 723]

I agree. I think we're in for a lot of surprises tonight.

[rholio 339]

I expect we'll see a near record number of trades this first round, seems like every team wants to move this year.

[Voltaire 5,315]

These first two picks really suck for the Lions. I hope Johnson slides to five.

[Mike FF Today 723]

Back to back tackles. No surprises so far.

[rholio 339]

These first two picks really suck for the Lions. I hope Johnson slides to five.

I think Philly jumps on Johnson at #4, we'll see soon.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Miami trades up.

[Belushi 9]

Dion Jordan!

 

Que the Brandon Albert trade rumours.

[Voltaire 5,315]

Everything is all focked up. I wanted Lewis dangling there for his college coach in Philly.

 

This better not be Johnson.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Miami gave 12 and 42.

[Belushi 9]

Assuming they get Albert, Dolphins could be contenders in that division. With 4 games against the Bills and Jets, I think they could be a 10-6 team. Depends how well Tannehill develops this year.

[Voltaire 5,315]

I need somebody watching the draft to help me out. The ticker at NFL.com went to zero on the Raiders before the Miami trade was announced. Couldn't the Eagles have quickly slid their pick in there at that time like (I don't remember who) did to the Vikings a couple of years ago.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Lane Johnson, Philly trying to protect the QB.

[Voltaire 5,315]

:cry: :wall:

 

Worst case scenario in spades by far for Detroit.

On TV, the clock stopped with 20-30 seconds left. And the networks don't have up to the second info.

No, trade happened with time left then they zeroed out the clock.

[rholio 339]

Agreed. 5th pick, see the top 3 tackles gone by pick 4. Word is they really like OG Cooper, hopefully they trade down.

[Mike FF Today 723]

Miami traded their early 2nd round pick (#42) which is what the Chiefs have been wanting in exchange for Brandon Albert.

[rholio 339]

Barry! Barry! Barry!! Great to see Sanders up there.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Ezekiel Ansah.

 

Better than Tavon Austin, I suppose.

[Old School 360]

Titans really need some help tonight. Hope some skill positions get drafted soon- hopefully 2 QBS so they get a good lineman.

[Voltaire 5,315]

I guess given the situation Ansah was the best pick. With the OTs gone it's who I would take. No offense to Ziggy but I'm seriously bummed out.

[rholio 339]

Ezekiel Ansah.

 

Better than Tavon Austin, I suppose.

 

Fills a huge need, and arguably BPA outside of the DT position. Sadly, the Lions do need a WR with Young gone and Broyles recovering from yet another injury.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Mingo to Cleveland.

[rholio 339]

Mingo to Cleveland.

Great pick for a team converting to a 3-4 defense.

[Vikings4ever 550]

So through 6 picks, we have 3 pass rushers and 3 pass blockers.

[Voltaire 5,315]

At least the Red Wings scored two quick goals while I was feeling all mopey and depressed and not paying attention.

[pee-diddy 27]

Random qstn. when was the last draft when no QB, RB or WR were drafted w/ first 6 picks?

[Vikings4ever 550]

Jonathan Cooper to Arizona

[rholio 339]

Arizona drafting O-line... wow, maybe they plan to play football or something close this year.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Random qstn. when was the last draft when no QB, RB or WR were drafted w/ first 6 picks?

97. Pace, Darrell Russell, Shawn Springs, Peter Boulware, Bryant Wetbrook, Walter Jones. Number 7 was Ike Hilliard.

[Saint Elistan 106]

I really don't want to have to deal with Percy Harvin AND Tavon Austin in this division. Go away, Rams!

[Belushi 9]

Bills trade their pick to the Rams.

[Vikings4ever 550]

1991 was the last time a skill position wasn't drafted in the top 7.

[Voltaire 5,315]

Rams trade up. Well it's no mystery who they're taking is it? St. Elistan is already clued in.

[KSB2424 3,148]

AZ got a really good one in Cooper. Not only can they plug him in the starting lineup for the next ten years but Cooper is a great person. I wouldn't be surprised if he is Arizonas team captain in two years, or their Union rep. He's a super player and teammate.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Tavon Austin to the Rams.

 

Ted Ginn version 2.0?

[Saint Elistan 106]

Welp. Time to counter. Let's go get Vacarro. Could see the 49ers trading up for Star as well. Even Eifert. Jeez, lots of good players sliding.

 

Tedd Ginn 2.0?

I hope so!

[rholio 339]

Jets add Dee Milliner, solid pick.
