Good pick, I was hoping he would slide to the NYG in the fourth. At least my top 3 for the Lions remain intact.

Speaking of weapons, the Rams need a security blanket for Clausen. I know this is a deep defensive draft, but I'm just following the value of the board. There are a couple of defenders I think will still be in the 5th that could help the Rams, but I don't see any safeties or corners with equivalent value to this guy.
Another plus: He's not a pussy shit bitch who sat out the combine despite being medically cleared to participate (Gronkowski). I don't think TE is a highly skilled position. You can take an athlete, teach him some short routes, and let him use his natural athleticism. Well, no TE in the draft has this guy's athleticism. The St. Louis Rams select Jimmy Graham, TE, THE U

I concede I don't know the most about the draft and prospects, particularly in this forum. I'm curious why you think this is a bad pick for the Colts?

Well, he was one of the top players on my board and the Colts are in a position to draft BPA. So I took him. No regrets. I draft a UW player every single year. He would provide good depth even if he couldn't slide outside.

Considering where the Colts sit I'd say you should have gone with OL or CB.
Probably OL since that is their number 1 priority this offseason. |

The Detroit Lions select from Auburn running back Ben Tate. Value meets need and right now with only Morris and Brown depth is needed at the position. Kevin Smith tore his knee and probably can't be counted on for much this season.

Yeah, I almost took a 3rd straight pork chop. Oh well, what's done is done. The only pick I really regret to this point is taking Kareem Jackson instead of Damien Williams for the Hawks in the 2nd round.

Floppy, I was praising your pick. I wanted Butler. I think he can play Sam for the Rams.

Really good pick. Dude could easily be a 1000-1200 yard back.

![]() Butler fills a need and may go as high as the late 2nd round. He's a good player.

I would like to know what people think about Graham, though.

Time for a bit of a luxury pick but when your starter has a major injury every other year and the guys behind him are just guys, I feel like I can justify it. This guy has the size, power, and hands I love in a running back. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers select Montario Hardesty, RB, Tennessee
