The Draft Gurus - Patrick Lee

[MJZiggy]

Who will Ted Thompson choose with his first round pick this year? Who can tell, but if Nutz has his way, it will be Patrick Lee.

LOL, Nutz flames people for citing other sources of material for draft content but goes and writes an article of the same variety himself.

How many Auburn games did you catch last year big guy?

Interesting article. I have to admit I had never heard of Patrick Lee.

Good player, but I think he'd be a reach at #30, and TT doesn't like to reach for need. Could be available with either of the Packers 2nd round picks, or TT could trade down to middle of the 2nd round and get him.

I'm not sure I necessarily agree. TT may not "reach for need", but he might grade players differently than "draft experts" do, and while what he does might seem like a reach to "experts" he could just be following his board. I'm not sure how many "experts" had Justin Harrell with a 16th overall grade. A few did, but not most.

If you told me that on TT's board he had Patrick Lee graded higher than Brandon Flowers, Tracy Porter, Justin King, Antoine Cason, and Aqib Talib I honestly wouldn't be surprised.

I don't think you understand. We do mock drafts because we think GM's think the way we do.

Partial, you steal other people's material and claim it as your own opinion. That's what you get "flamed" for.

There's a difference between that and digesting multiple sources and combining it with a general knowledge of the game to form your own opinion.

I don't know if I like him. He coudln't start at Auburn until his SR year. I'm a big fan of multi year starters who play good football consistantly and answer any questions on the field.

This kid is a big question mark IMO. He's a guy who couldn't beat out college competition but we want him to beat out pro competition.

More than anything, TT has never taken a guy this raw early in the draft. I would expect a more proven, quality player with the first three or four picks, not a project who hasn't done anything in the college ranks.

Bullshit. You're an idiot if you think linking to people saying "scouts are saying this".

This is no different. Not at all.

I don't think he is very good. I had no idea who he was until recently, and that says something considering I watched Florida play Auburn and focused much of my attention of Harvin. The whole game Harvin was wide open but Nutz #1 stunna Timmy T couldn't get the ball to him. Lucky for Lee, Tebow is god awful or he would have been burned for 4-5 TDs because Harvin is a stud.

This guy will amount to nothing imo. He'll never be better than average.

While I haven't looked at this kid in depth, my first impression is that I would be very disappointed if this is who we end up with in the first round.

Do you think you actually have any pull on this forum when it comes to football knowledge? Donkey.

He had some nagging injuries his junior year, and was slated as the starter going into his sophomore year, again injuries, nothing serious.

Reasons why I picked this guy, big, and can be physical. can run, and is a decent to good all around football player at this point, he is not an Ahmad Carroll that can run and with hope a team can turn him into a football player. He can step up and play special teams right away, and he has time to sit and learn behind guys like Harris and Woodson. He might not even beat out Bush, Blackmon, or Williams for playing time his rookie year, but this guy might have a higher ceiling than those guys.

Who knows he might be a one year starter and terrible, but who knows, I was asked to write and article and I wrote it on an what I think would be an exciting prospect. I wasn't guessing at who Packers GM would take with the 30th pick, but who could fit the bill for the Packers at the 30th spot. A player that could help in a possible need area, but also has the skills for the scheme the Packers run.

Nice work Nutz. Thanks for taking the time to write it up. I don't follow college sports much so I will not pretend to be an expert. I've always thought of T.T. as an excellent talent evaluator..If he likes this guy I won't be surprised if he is picked.

Well, we'll see how well you do when your homeboy Timmy T is a 6th round fullback and this Lee character flames out before he ever has his shot to shine.

I didn't even know who the guy was but seeing how open Florida's receivers were all game only to have your franchise #1 guaranteed pick Timmy T not find them speaks volumes.
