Official 2010 NFL Draft Round 2 & 3 Thread

Earl Mitchell? That was my 7th round guy if we didn't get Geno Atkins. Hmmm, WTF?!? Geno must run a Crystal Meth Lab in his garage.

Is Arizona in the SEC?

No, but they start with an A which must have confused them.

Did Smith & Kubiak not get a chance to consult with you before the Draft this year about DTs ? Otherwise, how come we're using 3rd round picks on 7th round talent ?

DT Geno Atkins 6'2" 286 Georgia 4.75 34 33 2.64 1.68 9.75 7.33 4.43 0.32 76.75 13.44 5.71
DT Earl Mitchell 6'2" 296 4.75 25 28.5 2.69 1.56 8.92 7.68 4.55 0.2 62.42 13.79 4.53

The only thing Mitchell had a significant advantage in was that 10 yard split. That tells me something.

[HPF Bob]

Sounds like a pure one-gap passing down type of d-tackle.

[HPF Bob]

Bengals just took Jordan Shipley. He and Quan Cosby are reunited.

Totally... that's a huge split actually. 1.56 is a good number. Passing downs with Mitchell, Mario, and Barwin could be getting a lot more exciting.

Yeah, Okoye please update your resume'.

[HPF Bob]

Wow. How long has Mack Brown been lurking off stage to announce Colt's selection? Shipley goes to the Bengals but McCoy goes to the Browns. LOL

[Warren]

Somebody tell Steve Young that Mike Holmgren is not the coach of the Browns.

[Nconroe]

I guess Colt McCoy is a steal for Cleveland, but who knows.

Pete Carrol is now on NFL Net - hey Mayoc ask him why he left his boy TM twisting slowly in the wind ?

Billick asked that in a round about way.

He could be rag doll after facing the Steelers and Ravens twice a year.

[HPF Bob]

Texans in the on deck circle.

I had Corey Peters ranked after Mitchell, so maybe I don't know what I'm looking for in DTs.
