THE draft thread (2013 version)

[Smeefers]

I think if I were the Vikings I'd grab Ogletree.

I agree, I see the vikes going oogletree and patterson.

[OS PA]

Vikings are going to take Shariff Floyd, and either Teo or Cordarelle Patterson. Great picks.

[Rastak]

Falcons take Trufant

Strengths: Athletic with fluid footwork, flashing the foot agility to drive quickly on the play. Looks natural in space, staying balanced with the hips and transition skills to redirect in any direction. Physical and fights for the ball when it's in the air, showing an excellent competitive nature. Doesn't shy from contact and will get his nose dirty in run support. Very good job tracking and highpointing with a top vertical to get his hands on the ball. Good bloodlines and understands the NFL process. Good experience as a four-year starter (47 career starts), spending time both inside and outside and in both man and zone coverage.
Weaknesses: Narrow torso, lean muscle tone and only average length. Opens his hips too early to protect against speed and needs to stay under control in his movements. Streaky technique once the ball in snapped and reverts to bad habits, relying on his natural athleticism over fundamentals. Lacks elite top-end speed and can be beat vertically. Inconsistent tackling technique, hitting too high and lacking the strength to consistently finish. Plays close to the line of scrimmage but doesn't make much contact and needs to improve his body position downfield. Too much of a grabber. Nagging hamstring injury late in 2012.

Can't play the run......but I wouldn't be pissed if they did. Te'o would be ok I guess but I have a feeling he may end up just a guy.

He could bust in the style of that Wake Forest guy with his tackling. I think he'll do much better at his NFL playing weight. What's weird is he does better vs lineman than he does vs ball carriers.

[RashanGary]

Wow, Vikes pick already in. They must like the guy they got.

Sounds likely....can't believe Floyd is there.....

[red]

well here you go ras

2 of the next 3 picks

in 45 minutes we should know who those two players are

[Bretsky]

well we got that regular and post season bullshit out of the way

time for the fun time of the year

does anyone have anything on Alec Ogletree?

dudes a fast 6'3 230-235 pound turnover machine at ILB. he started out in college playing safety, kind of like what that urlacher guy did. imo he would be a nice flash to bishops thunder

he's a junior, but kiper has him as maybe the best junior ILB in the nation

I am on board with this....I want a pass rusher....not a plugger

[pbmax]

A 7th rounder in 2015?

Well, maybe not
