The run on DBs continues... Falcons Guy had noted there were only a couple left at CB that would be graded as Day Two picks. I doubt he had Williams in mind as one of them, but I went for the boom/bust choice because I have Denver double dipping at CB for guys to develop.
In spite of my own nonsense, this draft has really fallen perfect for the Saints IMO. I rate the team needs in order; QB, WR, OT, IOL, S.....I couldn't have asked for more on those first three selections, especially getting Ridder in the 2nd. But you know it's going well when you completely F up and it somehow works out better. Last night when I was drunk drafting, the Asamoah fiasco actually saved me. Nothing wrong with Asomoah, he's a great pick in that spot, but Cole Strange meets my needs in New Orleans much better. So my stupidity in searching for the image cost me the pick, but worked out better for me in the big picture. At least I think it did... NEW ORLEANS SAINTS DRAFT 1.16 DRAKE LONDON, WR - USC 1.19 TREVOR PENNING, OT - UNI 2.17 DESMOND RIDDER, QB - CINCINNATI 3.34 COLE STRANGE, IOL - UT-CHAT
Bears select Justyn Ross, WR - Clemson A first round talent at WR coming at this stage of the draft obviously has major red flags that caused him to plummet. With Ross, it's spinal surgery AND foot surgery. So Chicago is rolling the dice on getting/keeping him off of IR. But considering Chicago's WR group is almost as pathetic as Atlanta's, it's worth the risk.
Love it. He probably makes my top 10 for pure curiosity when he hits the league how it will turn out. I don’t think his tape looks THAT different from say Tee Higgins previously. At least the better tape.
@IrishDawg42 otc @TopDawg on deck @StlCrtn in the hole And then Indy. I better go prep my plan B with all these Sumbitches in front of me.
PRICK! Ok not really. I like Woods and I was curious to see how long he hung around because he is really an interesting guy. Still developing, flashed a lot of potential last year, but definitely a dude who may have a lot more upside than his first few years might have implied. He's hard to predict though. Guys who like him seem to think he could go in the early third but that's too rich for my blood with the talent in day 2 of this class...
