Nah, Kaluka Maiava will be the last USC Linebacker off the board.

Im surprised the Colts passed on Ziiggy Hood.

[quote=RMSkins;550390]I see us using Orakpo as a 2-down SLB and then moving him up to DE on 3rd downs to rush the passer.[/quote]

Yeah that seems to be the conventional wisdom. Two points. Teams still pass on 1st and 2nd down so we're gonna have to teach the kid to cover (probably from scratch) and then he's got to make plays in space. I don't know.

...btw anybody else surprised that after the big 4 no OTs have gone. I thought we'd see at least 7 OL go in the 1st round but w/ Britton, Meredith in there.

Gentleman's bet Rey has as good a career as any defensive player taken in this draft...you just don't find many badass inside LBs out there.

The Giants helped themselves I think

I like the Hakeem Nicks pick by the Giants. I really liked him at NC.

Why do you like that pick....he's going to our arch-rival

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

I think Rey is going to the Cards

lol, i mean if I were a giants fan, i'd be ecstatic. I'm not a huge college football fan, but I caught a couple of NC games last year and he just stuck out every time. I'll put my skins hat back on now and say "Giants suck!"

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

best case scenario Clint Sintim falls to our next pick.

That would be nice, but we're a long way from #80. (Stating the obvious here, sorry).

That would be nice, but I don't think he will make it to the 3rd round.

OK, cause I have a hunch he will not be anything special. He'll have an average career at best. He had A LOT of nice talent around him to make things easy on him, now that he might have to be "the man", I don't think he'll be a shining star. But you never know. Of course, if we trade up for him, then I'll change my tune. ;)
