Official Day 2 (Round 2&3) Of The NFL Draft Thread

[Bretsky]

hmmmm

d-lineman

Khyri Thornton DT southern miss

gotta feel nix was the pick

yup...gotta think we were thinking Nix would fall to our lap

Kiper and friends thought our pick was ok. immense talent....if he applied himself could be stellar pick. Appears he is very off and on and has some issues

[run pMc]

Khyri Thornton - projected by nfldraftscout to go anywhere from R3 to R6 (with R5 most likely). Feels like a bit of a reach. Strong and quick and will get stronger/bigger as he learns behind Guion/Raji/Boyd.

Knew we would go DT but not a fan of this pick.

me either. its hard to find anything on the kid. really seems like an out of the blue reach to me

so he'll probably be a probowler

Cardinals ....Martin, Kareem DE 6'6" 272 North Carolina 5.6

and the Green Bay Packers @ Pick NO. 85 in Rd. 3 go to a DT and:

Khyri Thornton - DT (6'3" 304) Fr. Southern Miss and a 5.1 GRADE.

Comment woodbuck27:

This may be a decent pick and an improvement at the DT position for TT.

I'm hearing a "B" Grade.

OK so IMO TT is right on course.

Next Pick...OG...TE...SS / CB...SS later this round at Pick NO. Rd. 3 Pick NO. 98 or in 13 more picks....soon !

Who?

yup......after the Texans got Nix it woud have been an opportune time to trade down

[wist43]

How did we need another lineman?? To stand on the sidelines??

Only need 2 on the field at a time.

him and raji should get along

lets hope their periods don't synch up and they start getting on the same hot-cold cycle

Mayock likes him too. I just don't know how he's different from Josh Boyd, Jerel Worthy or Letroy Guion.

Found an article on him being a possible sleeper.

[Bretsky]

Ok, physically seems like a 3 tech in a 4-3. Another one like Worthy, Daniels.

We'll see I guess. Needed a lineman, but probably not an end.

yes...it seems like he's a tackle in a 4 3 defense
not sure he's an ideal DE or NT in our scheme
Odd pick it seems

yeah, cbs is giving the pick a B grade too

[pittstang5]

Thornton pick = headscratcher. I don't get this pick.

[pbmax]

Raji and the former Vike are on one year deals. Though this guy is not even 6' 3".

Pete Dougherty @PeteDougherty 5m
Thornton is 6-2 5/8, 304, run stopper. Raji and Guion on one-year contracts.

[pbmax]

Don't buy the motor thing til we see him. That's the most common charge thrown at any player and its often a mislabel. Someone else's capsule praised his effort.
