Plus we don't know what other trades will go down before draft day. I say we wait until a week before the draft to do this.

I agree.

 

Som many teams have so many holes that the draft isn't really as much a factor until you've gone through more Free Agency.

 

Especially guys with picks in the second half of the round. If you have a top ten pick...it's easier to see who you'd take and why. With the 23rd pick at this point in time I'd either go after one of the DT or DE that are left...but those might not be holes come mid April.

For whomever has the Texans (sorry I've forgotten) a couple quick notes from someone who's been reading up on them as he can.

 

A) Kinda out there, but Orlando Pace looks like he wants out of St. Louis in the worst way And the Rams may be looking into getting Turley as a replacement. Texans are one of the few teams with cap space and plenty of picks. I doubt anything will happen (despite Carr getting beaten like the proverbial red headed stepchild), but it might get interesting as the draft gets closer and assuming this isn't a big smokescreen by the Rams or Pace.

 

B) Should they keep their pick and looking at their off season losses, IMHO opinion the Texans may be looking more and more at Terrell Suggs. His pro day is the 26th I believe and that will tell us more, but Capers is a defense first kinda coach. Andre Johnson might fill the offensive playmaker need they have, but his less than glowing scouting reports (average hands, routes are questionable) might be a bit scary for a #3 pick. Still, those would be my 2 choices since Rogers is all but being fitted for a Lions jersey.

No one will pay Pace what he's asking. He's asking to make more than star QBs make.

Yeah that's why the Texans (or anyone else) won't make a move most likely. He's one of the best in the game and all, but $24 million just for the SIGNING BONUS? And his contract demands are about 7/$49 million. Give me a break. The day an OL gets that is the day the salary cap hit $150 million. Can you imagine if he gets that and something happens (like he blows out a knee) and has to retire? The team then has to either keep him on the roster the REST of the contract, or cut him and have the entire bonus taking up cap room the next year. That kind of thing would get a GM fired.

Let's take a poll

 

When should we have the mock draft.

 

-The First Saturday all teams are picked.

 

-A week before the draft.

 

I'd say a 1 to 2 weeks before the draft. We've waited this long what's another 4 weeks.

A week or two before the draft would be my pick.

  • 3 weeks later...

April 19th will be the date. Look for an official thread either tonight, or early tomorrow morning.

Easter weekend? Bad, bad timing.

My apologies; I completely forgot about the date of Easter.

 

I really did not want to do it on the weekend upcoming (the 12th-13th), so maybe it can be a compromise. Does the 14th through 18th sound okay? Everyone may just leave their picks during the week, and the rest can discuss it on Easter weekend.

That sounds fine. You're going to set a certain date correct?

OK if we are going to do it the whole week style I kind of want to get a read on something now

 

If i were to package my three picks

1st round 30th pick

2nd round 29th pick (61 overall)

2nd round 30th pick (62 overall)

 

Would anyone be willing to deal a top 5 or 10 pick for that deal?

I am confused...Am I just picking First round?

*Bump*

 

Figured this is the 14th-18th, I'd move this thread up.

 

Do we send your pick to you Bravesfan or will you PM us, when it's our turn?
