Official 2009 NFL Draft Round 3 Thread
 

Time to look at ahead to the third round.

Is it time for a RB? Someone in the secondary?

I would think one of those two...unless there in love with a RB I would guess secondary help

Man, I hope it's Shonn Greene (big, blocker, catch it out of the backfield).

My guys that are left for a 3rd round pick...

S Chip Vaughn Wake Forest
WR Mike Thomas Arizona
RB Shonn Greene Iowa
RB Andre Brown NC State
LB Marcus Freeman Ohio State
DE Lawrence Sidbury Richmond
CB Asher Allen Georgia

On a side note, I tied for #38 overall on NFL.com's Predict the Pick. Ironically, I did not get the Texans pick correct, I had Philly trading up for Moreno and us taking Matthews later. I tell you, Mel Kiper, Todd McShay, Mike Mayock, Rick Gosselin ain't got nothing on Lance Zeirlein. I find him to be the best source for how the draft will fall over the past couple of years.

Round 3:
Jarron Gilbert DT/E
Jarrod Cook TE
Shonn Greene RB
Shawn Nelson TE
Alex Magee DT
Jauquin Iglesius WR
Michael Johnson DE
Clint Ingram TE
Andre Brown RB
Lawrence Sidbury DE
Bradlee Fletcher CB
Mike Wallace WR
Kraig Urbik G
James Casey TE
Antoine Caldwell C
Rashad Johnson FS
Chip Vaughn S

We have some good options.

I agree that we have a number of good options. However, after taking Barwin and Cushing, I think Sidbury and MJohnson are off the table. I'm really hoping we are somehow able to get Caldwell or Luigs with our 4th round pick.

Do you think Urbik is athletic enough to play in our ZBS? I know the man is about 330 lbs.

I would happy with any of the three in bold.:cool:

To be honest, there's no one that has me terribly jazzed up but part of that's probably that I was a bit too busy this year to pay that much attention to prospects. Guys that I might be interested in on Day 2 would include:

RB Andre Brown
C Antoine Caldwell
S Chip Vaughn
FS Rashad Johnson
RB Rashad Jennings
DT Alex Magee
CB Coy Francies
TE Shawn Nelson
TE Chase Coffman
TE Jared Cook
WLB Kaluka Maiava
RB Shonn Greene
QB Rhett Bomar
C Jonathan Luigs
WR Derrick Williams
DT Terrance Knighton

*edit* Almost forgot RB Ian Johnson

Secondary help, PLEASE!

I like to see them draft this guy.http://www.nfl.com/draft/2009/profil...arnes?id=80628I think he might intimidate a few wrs.:D

Don't know who that is, but sounds like a punisher!

Will the Lions select an OT like Jamon Merideth or a LB like Marcus Freeman?

What the heck, let's see if the Texans can continue the Drayton Mclain "all-whitey" draft.

Shonn Greene or Chip Vaughn would be great picks if one of them made it to 77.

Gonna be a fun day... this is where winning seasons can be made.

Well, I don't really think that's the goal here. However, my next top "whiteys" are....

LB Scott McKillop Pittsburgh
QB Stephen McGee Texas A&M
OC A.Q. Shipley Penn St
TE John Phillips Virginia
QB John Parker Wilson Alabama
OT Lydon Murtha Nebraska

So, I'd expect that we'll be getting a player with a better tan here in the 3rd.

I know it's not the goal. I was just joking. :) Guess I should have put a smiley on the end of my post. ;)

Jets trade up to #65.

wow, starting the third with a trade with Jets, gave up 3,4,7, to get 65.

Michael Johnson and Gholston?

Dang you Jets!:mad:

Ouch. There goes a thumper RB.

Fletcher goes to St. Louis before Michael Johnson gets picked. Something is strange about that.

KC may go with Shawn Nelson or Jared Cook? Or are they going after an OLB like Sidbury or MJ?

Rashad Jennings? Andre Brown? Can the Texans wait another round to get a RB?

Cedric Peerman??

I think if there's a DB they like a lot, they'll wait, otherwise I'm totally expecting a RB.

Any possibility that something come out about johnson that we haven't heard yet?

Gosselin had Fletcher at 66 overall, so clearly he was hearing from teams he was rated higher than believed. Someone start a run on TE's please!

Why the heck does ESPN have a reporter in Dallas for a team that will finally take it's first pick in the 3rd round? Stupid.

The pool jumper goes to the Bears.

I think Vaughn, Brown, Marcus Freeman, or Asher Allen are the players Smith and Kubiak are talking about.

Chip Vaughn or Rashad Johnson would look pretty good in Battle Red...

Cowboys, please don't pick Chip. Go Duke Robinson

Took a LB, fine by me.

Not this time, but the have another pick right ahead of us....

I think Cinci gets the draft day fallers....Smith, Maulaluga, and Michael Johnson.

There goes Johnson to the Bengals, that's ok because we have Barwin.

Oakland has a WR, but Mike Thomas ran a 4.35. However, Sidbury was fast at the Combine.

A 6th round rated DE (according to Mayock). :)

I'm feeling good about getting Vaughn and perhaps Brown in the 4th or possibly Jennings. Now if the Cowboys don't mess that up at #75.

In my mock draft, I had the Jags selecting Dorrell Scott here.

The Hags should go with Juaqin Iglesias here to go with Holt.

William & Mary - I had no idea about this CB. Off my radar :D
