The Official 2010 NFL Draft Thread

Love this pick. I wonder what we're going to do at OLB though.

Like somebody said, maybe TT likes what we got. (But then Austin Lane is still on the board.)

In part, the pass rush might come from Neal playing tackle on 3rd downs.

But I agree, we seem a player short there, esp. on pass rush. They must see it in Jones. Unless there is a ton of OLB depth later.

So we're done until the 5th now?

Many are saying he's a great sleeper and the 3rd best safety in the draft..

He timed faster than Mays, by 1/100th of a second (according to Draft Countdown).

We only need a pass rush specialist...and there are still plenty of smaller college DEs that could transition well to a 3-4 OLB pass rush player.

Looks that way.

Vikes out until 4th.

I think they were really looking for an inside pass rusher to complement our outside speed guys. This pick is real good.

That's what I said before. This must mean TT is high on Brad Jones

Yes. Put on good weight and knows the scheme.

Maybe another Sharper. Bye Bye Bigby.

[Scott Campbell]

we gave up the 86th and the 122nd to move up..

Point Value Chart says:

Pick 71 = 235 points

Pick 86 (160 points) + pick 122 (50 points) = 210 points

Brad Jones was capable as a 7th rounder...and Thompson has a great eye for LB talent since that was his playing position. I'm not concerned at all about his ability to find a good OLB prospect in the later rounds.

Also, Jones supposedly bulked up in the off season and he should be stronger this year.

Huge surprise, Bears take Major Wright.
