drat you Houston fans can moan. I hope they *don't* loving draft Carr and instead pick up Taylor Martinez in the 4th.

I'm sorry. I don't know anything about Carr 1.0 but Carr 2 is a suspect prospect at best. He struggled mightily against the only good defense he played and has horrible pass distribution.

More recent playoff wins than 21 other teams, with a team that's younger than all of them too.

I just learned that the #1 pick in the second ever NFL draft was a center. I'd love to see that now.

Vikings beat us to Freeman and now they beat us to Bridgewater. They're gonna get to pick one pick ahead of us next year and they'll get Winston or Hundley or something just because we can't have anything intriguing. Bastards.

If it's unfair for me to judge Derek Carr based upon his name then it's unfair to judge Ryan Mallet based upon the very little we've seen of him.

These two things are the same. Totally.

...he had a full year as the OC with Mallet as a rookie teaching him up. I think he got a pretty good loving idea about what potential Mallet has from that NSF are you kidding me with this garbage?

JT Jag...that's a pretty fair analogy. I recall having the exact same reaction to Bush beating Gore. In hindsight it also looked to be a completely accurate one too, because he was a pretty horrible president.

If they HAVE to take a quarterback I'd probably rather have Garoppolo...but man, what a letdown. From Bridgewater to the gigantic scrapheap that remains.

Something amazing did happen though with Clowney. I mean maybe people are used to the idea by now but holy poo poo Clowney and Watt.

Also gently caress the Rams but holy poo poo that line.

Sadly there aren't anymore safeties after the drafted 4.


Maybe I'm wrong about today. Maybe Mosely will be the next Kuechly and he and Arthur Brown will form the best LB pair in the league for years to come.
