NFL Draft 2013 - Starts Tonite!!!!!

Geno Smith is overrated. Watch his highlights, majority of passes go 3 yards (dinks and dunks) and the WV wide receivers did the all the work and made big plays. 2 yard pass, 77 yards of running....Geno gets the big stats. It was smoke and mirrors with him. And the 3 times he faced an NFL coach and coaching staff in his life ( the 3 games vs Syracuse) he looked foolish and got the crap kicked out of them and lost all 3 games!

One thing is for sure. Smith totally made a fool of himself by ducking out and opting not to come back today.  He showed the entire NFL how mentally weak he is

Well he is staying in NY now it was just announced. Someone talked him into staying. But the damage is already done, he wanted to leave and needed to be convinced to stay

A bit of history here.

Last time no running backs were taken in the first round was 1963.  That's 50 years ago folks.

Last time two offensive linemen were drafted 1st and 2nd overall was 1968.  That's 45 years ago.

Strangely enough, that was the year that I took the ball in the backfield of my mom's womb, made one cut, found the hole and got into the open field...

Strangely enough this was the year I first laid a pancake block on my little brother. Unfortunately, I was flagged for holding, got a 10-yard penalty and a spanking...

It only cost us our #31 and #74 to get up to #18...I like the deal a little bit better already.

Holy crap, the Cowboys just got raped on that trade.  Grats to the 9ers for working over Jerry Jones.  As a GM he looks worse and worse every year.

[Sunstroke]

It's actually not a total rape, depending on which draft trade value chart is being used. I'd give the 49ers a slight edge in value. What's important is that Harbaugh-Baalke got the guy they really wanted to fill one of the few real "needs" the team has.  This pick does nothing but help SF in the quest for Super Bowl #6. I'm pumped to see him out there with Donte Whitner and the rest of our D when the season starts.

I am fairly certain that the 49ers next couple of picks will be directed at D-line and O-line talent...

With there last trade SF now as 4 (yes 4) 3rd round picks next year! WOW!

[Sunstroke]

And one of them, the conditional from KC for Alex, could conceivably be a 2nd rounder.

I like this trade...getting extra "quality" picks (rds 1-3) for next year was something I was hoping for in this draft.

Niners just grabbed Tank Carradine

[Sunstroke]

Yep...figured it would either be Tank or Jesse Williams. Given the depth at DT, and the few teams who really need a one gap NT, I'm not surprised they'd go DE/OLB with Tank here, and count on one of the top-3 DT's remaining, Johnathan Jenkins or Jesse Williams or Brandon Williams, to slide to the end of the round.

Good pick by SF, imo...all is going well so far in this draft.
