Tegis Posted April 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted April 27, 2012 Browns take Brandon Weeden at #22, QB,...wow A 28 year old 1st rounder. Cool. Looks like a pretty polarising decision from the fans point of view. Richardson will be a stud though. Good move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irreverentad Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Typical Steelers pick in DeCastro. Happy that our OL gets an updrade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted April 27, 2012 Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2012 Must say I'm impressed with the Broncos. They've traded down for quantity which is very Patriots-esque and they're still going to end up with the player they would have traded at #25. To me, they're going about this very much in the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerniesElbow Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Weeden has a strong arm and he beat Tannehill this year. He's 28 because he was drafted by the New York Yankees to play baseball and spent a few years in the minor leagues. Steve Young was 31 when took over in San Francisco.

kurtsimonw Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Age is nowhere near as big a deal as wear and tear. A 28 year old rookie will last a lot longer than a 28 year old who's already been playing 5-7 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante_Lockhart Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 We trade out again. Almost a waste of staying up to watch it but it was an entertaining draft. Stephen Hill to the Rams Courtney Upshaw (who I wanted) to the Colts Cordy Glenn to the Ravens hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerniesElbow Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Colt McCoy will probably be traded today for a pick in this years draft, most likely nothing more than a 5th rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhyscartwright_avfc Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Didn't watch it as I had work. So I downloaded it and made sure I didn't find anything out to find the Broncos didn't even make a single pick. What a waste of time. Still...like BOF said, right way to go trading out. Great trade by Minnesota, getting the player they wanted at #4 plus 3 extra picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 So is Weeden any good? Well, he's very good at hitting clay pigeons, anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 The Browns better hope their running back is world class, because they traded 3 picks to move up just one place in order to draft him. That's a lot to give up in order to move up from 4th to 3rd position. If he doesn't quite pan out, it will just be one more colossal Browns blunder to add to the list... Think Randy was informed of their decision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and the Pats have broken with tradition this year, which is interesting...maybe BB is thinking his future with NE is finite after all and wants to win ASAP.
