Let me just tell you this. Mitch cannot play in the elements, this is a mistake! He choked in the hurricane this year.
My brother in law is probably  
In cardiac arrest right now.

to the Bears...WOW!!!


It had to be Trubisky if they were trading up.

There wer a ton of top defensive players there for them, so who else do you give up so much for other than a QB?
ESPN needs to hire Good ole JR

did I tell you? QBs get overdrafted every year. Next year may be an exception, depending on how all the upcoming QBs perform this season. Bears fans hate it. And they should. Wow.

Not sure about guaranteed money but I'd say it's probably because they made a bad move acquiring him, ha.
I don't think Trubisky is a franchise QB

that's an even better trade for the Niners
WTF Chicago

Cleveland was trying to trade with San Francisco, apparently.

They had to beat them to it.

yes and i wonder if there was another guy trying to lift that pick
Love it  
Cenotaph : 8:29 pm : link
Teams always panic and overdraft QBs...not saying he won't pan out, but almost no one had him going at 2 (and to the Bears)... Love the surprises. Keep jumping at QBs, maybe someone slips down that the Giants want

He'll be forced to start in Cleveland. That will suck for his career since he needs to learn a ton. He needs to develop. If he sucks for a few seasons he will get yanked.
8:30 and only thorugh 3 picks  
10 minutes per pick.
6 picks an hour
Giants to pick just before midnight?
Fournette should go next  
jeff57 : 8:30 pm : link
.
Solomon Thomas to the Niners  
dpinzow : 8:31 pm : link
Jacksonville and Tom Coughlin on the clock
Johnny Lynch  
Trades back and still gets his guy. Pretty good start for his tenure.

Does well two 3s and a 4 is not a lot ... and the glennon deal is easy to deal with knowing the kid sits for 2 yrs and yr 3 they battle for the spot and glennon backups or cut ... but you have a vet backup that knows the system


As for the picks the 4th is gravy tier 2 FA 3rds may mean you miss on a gem that needs some polish or a journey at level of the draft it is no sure thing
Trubisky...  
BleedingBlue2 : 8:32 pm : link
Going 2 may be the best thing to happen to CLE pending they don't panic. They take the best player available and get their QB next year
So basically  
Cenotaph : 8:32 pm : link
SF gets the guy everyone figured they wanted, and a pick to boot. Sounds like they probably had other offers to go up to #2 for a QB...Guess they went with Chi probably because they didn't want to drop too far and lose Thomas. I'd guess the deals were somewhat comparable, but if it was Cle at 12 they have a lot of ammo, so surprised Cle wasn't able to make best deal (or didn't want to)

Doesn't he just seem like a Jaguar pick? Not sure why, just seems like it regardless of where they would have been picking, ha
Are we sure TC is  
Running the draft? We know he's involved, but is the GM or TC running it?

3 picks (2 this year and 1 next year)
Cleveland may not be in position to get a good QB next year

Jags

He's got the final say on everything.

selecting a RB. It seems like something borderline playoffs teams should do to get over the hump. By the time these shitty teams turn it around, the RB will likely be having a bunch of tread on the tires or battling injuries.
