Official 2009 NFL Draft Round 3 Thread

Jared Cook and Lawrence Sidbury must have been poor in interviews. With the way things are going, could I get Asher Allen in the 5th round?

Steelers take Mike Wallace instead of Mike Thomas.....I guess being short is hurting him.

He did look good at the Senior Bowl, if I remember correctly.

Reported that he had the flu when he ran that, and was quicker at his pro day. Didn't Jerry Rice run a 4.6?

[TexanJedi]

There goes Allen to Minny.

Aww crap. Asher Allen is off the board

I guess the good news is that he's not a Titan.

good with brown too, but doubt he's there

vaughn would fit the db need

I'm thinking about trading next year's 2nd for another 3rd round pick for Andre Brown right about now.

[Roy P]

Then again, Jennings is still on the board, so maybe I'm trading up for Chip Vaughn - you know, the guy I gave a 2nd round pick grade.

Wouldn't it be better to package our 4th's?

I would love that trade if it went down. Ive been loving on Caldwell all year and was hoping we would draft him, so I am tickled pink. I was just hoping they could draft him in the 4th instead of the 3rd, but such is life. If they could trade back in to the 3rd and grab Vaughn or Brown, that would be awesome.

[Nconroe]

not me, no next year seconds going away, just be patient, or trade this years picks if really sold on someone.

[TexanJedi]

Tennessee just got a good TE in Cook. Good value.

[Roy P]

The Titans just drafted to the "BPA" in Jared Cook. Hopefully he's dumb, can't catch, and won't block.

[American Idle]

Nice pickup in Cook for the Titans. Wasn't he projected in the mid 2nd?

[TexanJedi]

Titans traded their #2 next year for Cook this year.

Okay, I just needed to be talked down. This Caldwell pick flustered me. Now I have to get Vaughn and a RB (Brown, Jennings, or Ringer, Peerman).

[Roy P]

I thought the Colts would draft D.J. Moore to play CB.

I like Cook, but I'm glad the Titans are throwing away future picks. NE's stockpiling picks for next year.

And no, please don't give up our 2010 #2 for a #3 this year!!! I may have been OK with that had we traded with Detroit and picked Green or something. I'd rather give up both #4's or a combination of #4 and #5 or something like that if we want to move back into the 3rd.
