With the Colts pick we took Perine the Machine! The Trent Richardson didn't work out, they have a couple runningbacks in their stable but none like Perine. Dude is a hulk and will compliment Andrew Luck tremendously. The line was beefed up with the selection of Forrest Lamp, a great run blocker, then they grab a weapon like Perine.
Then with the Vikings, whom I admit I know very little about. They are all over the place... I seriously thought about just starting all the way over- cutting Twatwater and Bradford and just starting all over... but with their first pick being a mid second rounder I decided to grab some talent where I see it. Two young corners and a couple nice players in the front seven, let's put a little talent on the backend.

You picked two guys in round 2 that CBS had listed as 4th or 5th rounders. FWIW

-Good pickup on Carl Lawson Mud. I was going to take him early in the 3rd if he was still on the board. I think he is closer to a late first rounder than a mid-second.

He wouldn't have... a source tells me the Steelers would have tabbed him with their 2nd round pick.

Interesting Pick you made for a SS Tour-I was looking through available SSs or CB's for you in case you were gone all day. Figured you didn't want a QB now either.

I really liked what I saw of the kid when I watched UNC for UKnowWho. And then he posted great Combine numbers...
I chuckled when I read Zerlein's write up for NFL.com about his raw aggression. Seems made for Williams' D...

Five picks ahead of me before I go again. It is after 6:00, so it seems at this point that I may not be getting around to mine until morning...assuming others who are ahead of me have picked.

Tour sent me a message saying I'm on the clock but I don't think gftChris has made his pick yet

Chris is on the clock...

Some of these picks may not match with the team needs..
NYG aren't happy with their OL just because they were able to sign Future Hall Of Famer DJ Fluker.. they need at least 1 LB ideally 2, an OT [Fluker is at best a maybe.. if he's the answer what was the question] and a TE. Rhett Ellison isn't an answer to anything other than "Who is the 45th best player on any team" .. and someone named Johnathan Hankins needs to be resigned or replaced..
Jacksonville needs an OT, yes, and an RB seems nice.. but they really need top DE help because Dante Fowler is a bust.
Carolina needs upgrades at both OT spots and CB after someone named Josh Norman left town.. Hint: TreDavious White is available, and Atlanta needs DT help not DB so he'll be available at your spot..
New Orleans.. has arguably the absolute worst starting LB's in the league.. Two fossils named James Laurinaitis and Paul Kruger logged substantial time for them this past season.
Philadelphia.. Starts 2 CB's who wouldn't make the Browns roster, signed Alshon Jeffrey in free agency, and first round goes WR?
Indy.. Frank Gore went for 1k last season, none of their LB would take undrafted Cam Johnson's place on the Browns' roster.. and round 2 is a RB? Put it this way.. they just signed someone named Barkevious Mingo..
Tampa Bay.. They have 2 good-to-great LB's in Kwon Alexander and Lavonte David and zero safeties with NFL-caliber coverage skills.. and the first round is ILB?
Denver.. Okung signed with Chargers, so even after signing Menelik Watson, they need 2 starting OT's.. Yes, TE/WR may be usefully interesting, but they have significant holes especially with Ware retired.
Detroit.. They have Ziggy Ansah and Kenny Hyder, so I'd think their barely-NFL-caliber DT's would be the need rather than Carl Lawson in the 2. And none of their starting LB corps would make the 2017 Browns roster [Levy was released].
Oakland.. Another team needing 3 new LB's and 2 new DT's yet received none so far..
Seattle.. They've needed OL help seemingly forever, yet no OL help has arrived yet. Wait, I forgot about Luke Joeckel.. just like every team he's played for.

Indy signed Barkevious Mingo and another guy named Jabaal Sheard, I'm not sure but I think they both have Superbowl Rings?
Frank Gore was old when he played for the 49ers... People act like a 1000 yards is something to be excited about, if you ain't at 1500+ see me when you step your game up.
The Colts found an upgraded line and a workhorse that will punish the defense.
...we're not done yet.

OK I'm here! Let me make the pick now(ish)

Welcome back chris. Send a PM on to ConnerL after you pick. Thanks.

Bad timing for me - I am (hopefully) starting a new job, but it involves a shit ton of paperwork, meetings and the rest. Last night I went in for a 6pm meeting, followed by drinks, got home and crashed. Woke up this morning to see I was on the clock!
-
That would be to ConnerLangford chris.

"Hey look Mom, the game comes complete with a GM Guru"
. Yep had the choice of McCaffery or Cam Robinson? Decided on playmaker that could score some damn points.Giants can't score TD's. -

You forgot Baltimore picking a DE who is an end of 4th early 5th round prospect in the 2nd
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings/2017/DE
And Baltimore actually taking 2 Defensive Ends when they have Timmy Jernigan and play a 3-4
Also Washington not addressing their biggest need at WR
You missed those 2

Yep, I've sent the PM now, thanks
Guess that means I'm on deck... whatever that means.
