OFFICIAL DAY THREE 2012......DRAFT DAY THREAD

[mraynrand]

Loving this draft! Defense! Defense! Defense!

THe draft is a stark admission that there is a lot of crap on the current defensive roster.

[gbgary]

manning interview...very positive, confident sounding, young man. says he's better than some of the guys picked before him. great attitude it seems.

T2 asked about all the trading:

tom silverstein @TomSilverstein
TT: Horrible. I'm not my father's son anymore, Thompson joked about trading up so much.

Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde
Thompson on trading away picks: "It's horrible. I'm not my father's son anymore. It's pathetic. But in this case I felt it was appropriate."

You stole my negro.

If Chris Polk is there somehow in the 7th round, I don't care if his shoulders are so bad he'll miss the entire season, if he's going to play football for you at any point in the next four years he's worth a flyer. Arian Foster kind of situation.

Thinking the samething especially for a 7th.

[Lurker64]

However, the question then becomes which base 3-4 position loses its backup and do you have any depth for the base 3-4?

I think if they really need to defend the run this year, you will see some four man fronts.

It's a degenerative hip, but I'm with you. Even if you could get a couple decent seasons...

I am surprised Billy Winn is still around

yup. and that tall, fast wr streeter...what's up with him?


edit: ravens just picked up streeter.

[Scott Campbell]

I wonder if Capers would have been able to rip off 6 straight defensive players if Philbin was still here.
