I love this pick. If only he could run behind FB Mark Seaman that Seattle picked up late in the 1st round. That boy is gonna open up some holes for their RB over there. And you gotta like the name Seaman going to a place like Seattle. It's just fitting.


That was my plan :(


I was hoping Seaman was going to fall to the end of 2 because he's a FB.

That's what j thought too, Seattle (imo) are making a mistake converting to RB

Ray got the steal of round 2. I was sure that guy was falling to round 3.

I know I've gotten several trade offers during the draft, generally close to the time of my pick....just wanted to say....I'm not blowing you off....I'm unfortunately having to go to work....if we could just start tailoring the draft times around my work schedule that would be great.

Thanks! I am not sure if you mean me, but rhymer and snook were ai picks. (I almost got my weights where i like for 4.3)Both have a legit possibility of being worthy picks, but I still think the real steal is db Boston. My scouts have him being severely underrated and most likely to boom.

Rhymes can pass block, but will fall in to back up role if he busts....same for snook, if he busts he will still have value with his speed to stretch the feild . Boston on the other hand will be tried at RB....Pending a bust for him.

Either way I am happy the way the draft is panning out. We have so little money to work with this year , so the draft is paramount to our success in the future

I have Rhymer as a 77 potential LT or LG, which really means he's closer to 80 since he's a C and not as heavy as those two positions. He could be a starting RT right now tho.

I am weird as I play linemen like I would in real life......meaning he is too short to play tackle. In an emergency I would use him as you stated at LT as his snap is a liability at 40 , so LG is the best choice. I just converted to RG to ge the most weight out of him. He is pretty nimble and I like mobile RGs anyhow.

We're gonna go pass heavy behind the untested j.dove or some other scrub. With a FB at RB.

I have to ignore height or I just feel bad. Do you know how many 80 SP, 275# DEs I have that are 5.8-11? It's ridiculous. Body mechanics do not work like that.

Very disappointed in my draft. Work has been hectic and I pretty much had no time to even make my picks. Hopefully I can at least get an average starter out of this :(

Is there an award for GM of the draft? If so, I vote for myself. If I win, can I get a 4th year before I am fired? ;)
