**ORIGINAL Ray's NFL DRAFT THREAD**

[Big Red Ron]

NFL network just said that on several NFL team's draft board M. Lynch has moved ahead of AD because of the collar bone.

Also, Moss to NE looks like a done deal.

Mike Williams to the Titans to rejoin Chow looks pretty much done too.

[Big Red Ron]

Brady Quinn spends more money on hair gel than Mike Gumby.

[Big Red Ron]

Browns now said to be taking Joe Thomas at 3 and quinn dropping far.

[picasso]

I dint know the draft already started.:D

[Big Red Ron]

Looks like we both took our meds this morning. ;)

[stoops the eternal pimp]

I think it would be good for AD to end up in Minnesota

[Big Red Ron]

I think it would be good for AD to end up in Minnesota'Cept for that turf they have. I'd rather see him in AZ or TB.

[Big Red Ron]

AD get's a standing O when introduced but Brady Quinn gets boo'd to the point of Sanders asking them to stop.

:D

[Rhino]

The Cowboys have confirmed AD's cell number. If he falls, there are going to be some happy Cowboy fans.

Matt Mosley's blog is a pretty good read:

I think it's cuz he's a total douch rocket.

[Rhino]

what draft number is Dallas? Currently #22.

They'll need to pony up quite a bit to get him before #6.

[Big Red Ron]

Wow, tough crowd. They're booing Bruce Smith during the VT tribute.

yeah, that was way classy - way to go NY peeps

[Big Red Ron]

Anyone else think there's something wierd about how Quinn follows Russel around everywhere?

[picasso]

the opening poetic def jam crap.

why dint they have that homeless dude from In Living Color give his two cents?

"Da venereal reciprocals of the MFL's...."

[stoops the eternal pimp]

'Cept for that turf they have. I'd rather see him in AZ or TB.


I would hate to see him end up in AZ with that O line..A cadillac and AD backfield would be nice in TB.

I was just thinking of AD getting to run behind Steve Hutchinson on the left side at Minn..Look how much of a difference he made over at Seattle

[Rhino]

Mosley said a Raiders source has confirmed Jamarcus as the #1 overall. Personally, I wouldn't pick him in the top 10.

Overweight, bad work ethic = DON'T. DON'T, DON'T DON'T. DON'T DON'T DON'T. DON'T DON'T DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE.

DALLAS TRADES UP! Takes AD as the 3rd overall!

I wish..

[Rhino]

Joe Thomas to the Browns. I think it's a great pick for them. Their offensive line was offensive last year.

[KC//CRIMSON]

Poor Domer.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

[KC//CRIMSON]

Poor Domer.

[Rhino]

Bucs - Gaines Adams. The trade must be in.

[Rhino]

I wouldn't mind AD going to the Cards - mostly because their young talent on the offensive side.

But I'd prefer another team trade up and take him.

[jk the sooner fan]

what trade?

[yermom]

Leinart handing off to AD?

i don't know if i like this...

[stoops the eternal pimp]

I have a sneeking suspension a certain 7th grade superstar that graces this board will go 5th

[Rhino]

Looks like AD won't be going to AZ. Levi Brown? Huh?

[KC//CRIMSON]

I wouldn't mind AD going to the Cards - mostly because their young talent on the offensive side.

But I'd prefer another team trade up and take him.


Yep. Trading runs with James would be good experience for AD.


But yeah, wouldn't mind seeing the trade up either.

[King Crimson]

ah, the sweet sound of Mark May's voice.

[Rhino]

what trade? The rumblings were if the Lions took Calvin Johnson, the Bucs would take Gaines Adams and make a trade happen.

[jk the sooner fan]

ahh, interesting

thanks

[King Crimson]

no arizona no....

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Pic are you sure your phone isnt on silent?

[King Crimson]

whew.

what is Brady Quin wearing, a Sonny Corleone outfit?

[yermom]

ugh, Washington?

NOOO!!!1!1!

[Texas Golfer]

If AD should go to the Redskins next, he'll be already familiar with D.C. when he's elected President.

[Rhino]

Washington won't take AD. They already have Portis and Betts (who filled in very well last year when Portis was down).

Surely Washington trades this pick. They need to grab a later first rounder and a second or third-rounder. This is the only pick they have today.

[Ever]

Washington?! NO! NO!

I would buy an AD jersey, I would not buy a Skins Jersey...

Trade to Dallas! Trade to Dallas!

[picasso]

I'd love to see AD go to a traditional team in a big city. Washington would be fine by me.
his slipping down may not be a bad thing at all.

and I've been called by my agent Sal Rothlensteincohen, the Toledo Mud Cats are looking at me in the supplemental experimental draft thing.

[Rhino]

Redskins are keeping the pick - Laron Landry.

[Rhino]

Vikings on the clock. AD still in the green room.

I see it happenin'.

[starrca23]

Ya, I hate purple though. His agent is saying a bunch of nothing.

[picasso]

I wish these analyst dorks wouldn't give out the pick early. it takes all the fun out of it.:rolleyes:

[FaninAma]

I wouldn't mind AD going to the Cards - mostly because their young talent on the offensive side.

But I'd prefer another team trade up and take him.

I detest the Cardinals. I want to see Matt Leinert getting his brains beat in a little bit longer so I like the idea that the Cards will have an anemic running game for the foreseeable future.

And I agree that Jamarcus Russell is a poor man's Michael Vick and we've all seen the lack of development by Vick since his first few years.

[Ever]

Ya, I hate purple though. His agent is saying a bunch of nothing.


The mark of an excellent lawyer. :D

[Rhino]

And I agree that Jamarcus Russell is a poor man's Michael Vick and we've all seen the lack of development by Vick since his first few years. Jamarcus is a poor man's Byron Leftwich, who is a poor man's Daunte Culpepper.

[starrca23]

"He's uh okay...uh....a good talent uh...."
I am already tired of the Steve Spurrier Underarmour commercial.

[tommieharris91]

I hope and pray that Minnesota doesn't get AD. I don't wanna see him play against the Bears.

[FaninAma]

Jamarcus is a poor man's Byron Leftwich, who is a poor man's Daunte Culpepper.

LOL. If I had to lay money on who will be the biggest bust of this draft it would have to be Russell. Suits me fine because Oakland and Al Davis deserve to languish in NFL have nots for enternity.

[Rhino]

AD TO THE VIKES!

[King Crimson]

go Vikes, i guess. turf in the upper midwest has not been kind to Sooner backs.

[KC//CRIMSON]

Well, at least their fans seem happy. Ugh.

[picasso]

go Vikes, i guess. turf in the upper midwest has not been kind to Sooner backs.
natural grass ain't been good to AD either. maybe this is good, he's a hybrid.

[FaninAma]

Congrats to AD. WHy all the concrn about AD? His injuries were not career threatening and did he not run in the last TD for OU in the Fiesta Bowl? So it seems he wasn't hurt too much in that game.

[starrca23]

Well crap, I don't look good in purple. could have been worse though. Does anyone know if there is a number 28 on the Vics roster?

[King Crimson]

my buddy who is a Packer fan is not gonna be happy about this.

[Texas Golfer]

Now, the Cowboys need to trade for AD.

[Rhino]

Does anyone know if there is a number 28 on the Vics roster? Negative.

[WA. Sooner]

To bad Minn still doesn't come to Oklahoma to practice in the post season

[picasso]

anybody notice none of these draft nerds have mentioned the fact that AD had the most carries in D-1 as a true freshman?

[IronSooner]

anybody notice none of these draft nerds have mentioned the fact that AD had the most carries in D-1 as a true freshman?

Too busy talking about AD's injuries and Brady not getting drafted yet. Seems like they mentioned carries, maybe from last year, while he was onstage and they were talking about the 2-back system with Taylor.

[JLB]

Adrian Peterson will have a very productive career at Minnesota.
I like Minnesota and I am so thankful that we dont have to see
ADs career wasted away in Cleveland.
GO AD.

[King Crimson]

the Vikes roster is not exactly studded with household names.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/teams/min/depthchart

[MamaMia]

I don't like the Vikings. Lets all go over to the Vikings site and verbally attack anyone who insults AD. :pop:

[King Crimson]

that was cool. they spend 10 minutes talking Quinn to the Dophins and the Fish take Ginn.

[BOOMERBRADLEY]

WTF????!!?!?!?!

[pb4ou]

that was cool. they spend 10 minutes talking Quinn to the Dophins and the Fish take Ginn.

heh

[IronSooner]

that was cool. they spend 10 minutes talking Quinn to the Dophins and the Fish take Ginn.


I'm kinda torn on this. I think it's funny the farther he falls, and Kiper's mini-fit was pretty entertaining. But on the other hand, it just prolongs how long they're going to pimp the guy, and I'm starting to get a little sick of hearing about him. There are other guys in the draft.

[hybridworks]

I love it... Quinn could make it to Chicago...

[Texas Golfer]

I'm not a big Brady Quinn fan but the Dolphins just pulled a Houston Texans move. Pure stupidity! If anyone needed a "premier" QB, it was the Dophins.

[MamaMia]

So, question...Is it, the further you fall the less money you get, or not?

[sanantoniosooner]

So, question...Is it, the further you fall the less money you get, or not?
yes. That is the case.

Usually as the top picks get signed you see a stairstep pattern develop with contract/position. If a high level pinhead holds out for a long time it makes it tough for others to see where their slot should be.

[Ever]

Dumber pick than Williams over Bush.

Mark it; that boy will become a great QB. Dallas may snatch him up if he's there that long. That would be cool.

I like Quinn.

[MamaMia]

yes. That is the case.

Usually as the top picks get signed you see a stairstep pattern develop with contract/position. If a high level pinhead holds out for a long time it makes it tough for others to see where their slot should be.
Oh, I see. That makes sense. Thanks. :)

[Texas Golfer]

So, question...Is it, the further you fall the less money you get, or not?

Yes, that is the case. And Brady Quinn is seeing bags with the "$" sign on them sprout wings and are flying away.

[Fraggle145]

MIAMWN3D!!!!

[GottaHavePride]

That's ok, I don't like Brady Quinn that much. And please, not to Chicago. I wouldn't want him disrupting my Tommie Harris / Dusty Dvoracek man-love-fest.

[hybridworks]

That's ok, I don't like Brady Quinn that much. And please, not to Chicago. I wouldn't want him disrupting my Tommie Harris / Dusty Dvoracek man-love-fest.


I dont like Quinn either, but you have to look at what the Bears have. I would rather have Quinn over Grossman... Maybe a better outcome in the Superbowl.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Adrian Peterson will have a very productive career at Minnesota.
I like Minnesota and I am so thankful that we dont have to see
ADs career wasted away in Cleveland.
...or in Arizona. I wish the Cards would trade all their players for guys from suc, whorns and domer, so they could learn the joys of playing for Bill and Michael Bidwill.

[MamaMia]

That's ok, I don't like Brady Quinn that much. And please, not to Chicago. I wouldn't want him disrupting my Tommie Harris / Dusty Dvoracek man-love-fest.
But of all the teams that need a QB I would say Chicago does. That Rex Grossman pretty much single handedly lost that Super Bowl game. As much as I don't like Brady Quinn, he would be better than Rex.

[Wishboned]

Brady's in the crying room.

[MamaMia]

:D Hes gone into hiding. :chicken:

[IronSooner]

Heh, I like that report. "Roger Goddell invited Brady Quinn back to his special suite for some privacy", read: to get away from us. Maybe now we can move away from the Draft-Brady-Quinn-Show and go back to the NFL Draft?


That said, I'd probably rather have Quinn behind center in Chicago than Grossman. Chicago's going to need to get someone else behind Rex that can really play because I just don't see that experiment succeeding. And QB is really the last piece of the puzzle for them.

[MichiganSooner]

Adrian Peterson's fall to Minnesota at No. 7 means he's the early favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year because he'll get two cracks at the Lions.

[Big Red Ron]

heh, Quinn is hiding in the commissioner's room away from the cameras.

[Wishboned]

I'm trying to picture the private suite.

Soothing colors, plenty of kleenex, relaxing music and a big mirror so Brady can look into it and say, "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!"

[JLB]

[JLB]

It would be ironic though if Quinn turned out to be a better QB than
Jamarcus"Left Tackle"Russel.

[MamaMia]

Nike is probably thinking they may have been a little hasty. :pop:

[Ever]

Quinn was the last guy in the green room.

[picasso]

it's really not a bad deal for the guy. he could end up on a good squad and still end up making some good money.

you gotta kinda feel bad for him though. guess a good shot of humility is good for everyone.

[Wishboned]

Quinn was the last guy in the green room.

I hope he turned out the lights and straightened the room up a bit before he left.

[JLB]

I betya Brady Quinn went to the mens room and sobbed.

[MamaMia]

Nobody even picked Quinn for trading power. I guess they wanted to make sure they got a strong player for their specific needs.

It will be offset by two cracks at the Bears.

If pretty boy brady falls to Chicago at 31, they should take him without thinking about it.

It will ruin everybodys pre-game Saturday mornings.True dat. Too bad Brady played for domer. Then, he would prolly get more sympathy outa this board. ...My gawd, they are still interviewing Quinn. I AM starting to feel for him a bit, now.(just a tiny bit). OK, I've stopped , now that the ESPN guys are CONTINUING to fawn over Quinn.

[King Crimson]

how many "experts" are doing this broadcast.....everytime i turn around some new guy is weighing in.

well, they got the Packers pick's college team right, just the wrong player.

[IronHorseSooner]

Tennessee had picked Hook 'em two years in a row. What's up with that?:confused:

they keep talking about all these teams have needs at WR, and no one takes one.

he'll probably do better than David Carr...

Please don't go to the Cowboys. In the name of Meredith, Staubach and Aikman, please don't select the Domer!

Well, who knows? Maybe Dallas will take Quinn now that Tony only signed for a year.

[yermom]

Please don't go to the Cowboys. In the name of Meredith, Staubach and Aikman, please don't select the Domer!

hopefully the Browns suck this year and Dallas gets a high pick :D

[jk the sooner fan]

that is a brilliant trade for the cowboys...they slide down to a high 2d round pick this year to go with the one they already have, and get a #1 next year that is likely to be VERY high

[MamaMia]

Maybe now they'll move on and talk about the other football players.

[Ever]

Cowboys could get Darren Mcfadden next year baby! Great trade.

[IronHorseSooner]

I feel a little upset that the trade was made with Cleveland, only because ESPN had that clip of the Domer from when he was a kid. Anybody else, and this would have not happened. What if that had been AD with the Cowboys? Or anybody else with their home team? It would not have happened.

[jk the sooner fan]

oh geez, are you serious?

[Texas Golfer]

Growing up in Ohio, Quinn was visibly upset with not being taken by the Browns at the #3 pick. He'll be happy to play for the Browns but Cleveland won't pay him as much as if they took him at #3.

[swardboy]

Is Rufus anywhere in sight in the 2nd round?

[jk the sooner fan]

he'll probably get taken tomorrow, 4th round

[rainiersooner]

I don't take delight in some 21 year old kids misfortunes.

Oh, I don't know. I think things will still turn out okay for him. He is going to play on Sundays and he's going to make a lot of money.

He'll make more money than 99% of the people making fun of him.

Either that or I just don't make any money at all.

[OK2U]

Is Rufus anywhere in sight in the 2nd round?
There have been seven LBs taken--most of which are from less-than-stellar teams...Hampton...Stanford...etc.
the Spring game commentators gave Ru' mad love, saying mid-second round at worst.
And it's not size. there have been like 3 smaller LBs taken already.
I guess Big XII defensive player of the year doesn't mean much to the NFL.

[Blue]

Congrats to a Mobile boy going #1 in the NFL Draft.

[Blue]

and the Browns could've had AD and Quinn. God they suck.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Rufus to the Raiders, first pick of the 6th round.

Rufus to the Raiders, first pick of the 6th round.

one pick too early, he went to the Vikings in the second pick of the 6th

You're right.. they flashed it by so quick I missed the RB the Raiders picked up.

[sooner_born_1960]

I would like to welcome all the new Viking fans to this board.

[Big Red Ron]

one pick too early, he went to the Vikings in the second pick of the 6thSo, he was the last pick of the 5th?

[IronSooner]

I think he was the first pick of the 6th - Troy Smith was the last of the 5th.

[IronSooner]

FYI Kasey Studdard just got drafted by Houston at 183. I still laugh about that thread when I hear that guy's name.

[Doged]

Rufus was the 2nd pick in the 6th round.. sorry for the confusimacation!

[Big Red Ron]

Cool, I think he's a steal at 6th.

Let this be a lesson to future Sooners' who stay for their Senior year. Play balls to the wall and don't play to not get hurt or you'll go from a late first to early second round pick (Jr year) to a sixth.

[Sooner Born Sooner Bred]

FYI Kasey Studdard just got drafted by Houston at 183. I still laugh about that thread when I hear that guy's name.Yeah, all that work at Khandahar U really paid off for the guy.
