2009 NFL Draft Open Thread - Round One

Alright, folks. . .the first pick will officially go to the podium here in about half an hour or so.  Yes, we all know who it's going to be, but this will mean that the draft is officially underway.

Discuss all of the action here.  I might be a bit distracted. . .Mrs. Gonzo has taken our new puppy to the emergency animal hospital down the road.  I should probably be there, but I'm here instead.  So, I'm waiting for word from her and watching the draft.  I'll keep up as best I can. . .and maybe throw in puppy updates as well.

But we'll discuss the first round here.  We'll start a new thread for Round 2.

Final Predictions of who gets picked by the Vikes?

I say Maclin falls to 22 and the Vikings Snag Him..and we trade up to get Loadholt in round #2

by Tony_O on Apr 25, 2009 2:51 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

1st pick gone - for the record

Stafford gone to the Lions with a 6 year contract, before the draft even begins.

That’s an awful lot of faith in a rook, and it says a something about their confidence in C-Pep.

Standing by for the actual picks :)

by DCPurple on Apr 25, 2009 2:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Why do they even make us wait? The draft should start with number 2 on the clock, number will already have the pick in.

I did an entire 7 round mock yesterday haha..I have the Vikings taking Maclin..with Harvin as the other pick if harvin is off the board.

Jason Smith to the Rams

Not a lot of surprise there. Smith is a good fit for them.

And, yes, I’m 2-2 now. (-:

Now, the Chiefs have some intrigue. Do they also go tackle, or do they take a LB in Curry? I’ve got them taking Eugene Monroe.

How about a trade????

by Montana Viking on Apr 25, 2009 3:18 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Definitely a possibility

If someone like the Jets or Tampa thinks they need to get ahead of the Seahawks at 4 to get Mark Sanchez.

I’m not sure how serious the Seahawks’ interest in Sanchez is, though, to be honest.

I’m really not sure that I like the Jackson pick here. Yeah, the Chiefs needed D-linemen, but still. . .I don’t like it.

Jackson isn’t exactly a sack artist either. Looks like they are going to change to a 3-4 and wanted to get the best lineman for that scheme.

Seahawks take Curry

He looks a bit surprised. . .and, frankly, so am I.

Not sure what the ’Hawks do at LB now. . .do they move Tatupu outside, or do they think that Curry can play outside in their defense?

I, personally, would have gone Sanchez or Monroe.

Now, does Cleveland take Sanchez and let everyone know that Brady Quinn is available?

If Sanchez does fall

I don’t think he gets past San Francisco at 10.

Just my opinion.

I think San Fran will get him as well unless someone trades up.

With the Recent Acquisition of Torry Holt..i think they go QB @ #8 to get insurance for the future with Garrard getting up there in age.

True, but there is something that all 3-4 teams aren’t that good at: Stopping the run. Remember when Peterson broke the single game rushing record against San Deigo? They are one of the best 3-4 Ds in the league.

And who'd have thought

That at this point in the draft the Vikes could be choosing between Maclin and Harvin?

mcnabb might say yes

but i’m hoping it’s a no.

Harvin’s not worth it

Poor Darren Sharper

I just realized that two years in a row now Darren Sharper has had his replacement drafted with his team’s first pick.

who are the eagles trying to get?

Jared Allen is to football what Jason Voorhees is to Lake Crystal.

2 questions

Q: Who did the Browns trade with? If it’s the Bears then Maclin is gone.

Second question: Why wouldn’t the Eagles draft the TE still available?

by biggity2bit on Apr 25, 2009 5:12 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Browns trade up to the Eagles...for the #21 pick and a 6th rounder.

and the Eagles are thinking Pettigrew is what Mayock is saying.

by Tony_O on Apr 25, 2009 5:12 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

they were worried about the lions taking pettigrew so they moved up to get him.

Okay, so we’re going to take Oher then.

Looks like Harvin or Oher is our guy. unless the lions take Oher.

Det.

Oher to Det. to protect Stafford’s backside? Hope not.

by Odin on Apr 25, 2009 5:15 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well

What do we do now? I think we’ll trade down, try to recoup a sixth.

unless detroit takes Oher…

by Spoolinup on Apr 25, 2009 5:15 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Detroit might take Pettigrew. Mayock said that’s who the Eagles were jumping the Lions to take. So, he thinks they’ll be going TE. They definitely need one.

by Frost on Apr 25, 2009 5:16 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Oher/Britton in first, Trade 2nd for Boldin…

that would be great…not likely though

Pettigrew it is

by Frost on Apr 25, 2009 5:19 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Pettigrew to Detroit

And Oher is just one pick away from (hopefully) becoming a Minnesota Viking.

That Chilly will trade down. Britton is his guy.

I actually hope if they pick WR with #22 they grab Nicks and not Harvin…

by Spoolinup on Apr 25, 2009 5:22 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Britt

I like Britt over both those guys. But I sat we don’t go WR in round 1.

by Odin on Apr 25, 2009 5:23 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

If we take Oher...

Do we go with Brian Robiske in the 2nd round??

i’ve never heard so much excitement over a tackle

by jswen on Apr 25, 2009 5:22 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Apparently the Browns traded again

This time with the Giants.

And NFLN shows the Vikings being on the clock.

I don’t think it’s the excitement so much over Oher personally, but the psychological void that can be filled with Cook being replaced…lol

by Spoolinup on Apr 25, 2009 5:24 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

who would the giants want to move up to get?

Cleveland selects Alex Mack so no trade

by vikingfuture8816 on Apr 25, 2009 5:25 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Never mind

The Browns made their pick, and they take Alex Mack, the C from California.

PLEASE VIKINGS, take Michael Oher here!
