Official 2013 NFL Draft - Rounds 2 & 3 Thread

[popanot]

I'm a bit surprised they went S that early. Figured they'd draft one eventually, but thought they'd go front-end D or TE there.

I bet he's going to be the Ed Reed tutorial project.....

I think so too. We may need him if Reed can't stay healthy. Where did Demps go?

[dadmg]

I was hoping for Minter or Arthur Brown to make it to us (kinda pissed that one of my secondary teams jumped in front of us for Brown, even though they needed him too) and I probably would have gone Jesse Williams, but I have no complaints with Swearinger. We need the depth and he's an intriguing enough prospect to groom.

If Wade's happy, I'm happy.

Swearinger should help our STs immensely. He'll get plenty of field time, that's for sure.

[Nconroe]

Seems reasonably good DB who tackles well, and a need.

[Roy P]

I was sort of hoping for Philip Thomas, Bacarri Rambo, or Shaun williams, or even Josh evans at FS. Can't believe Armstead is still available. Not happy TE Kelce & CB Gratz & LB moore are now gone.

Cardinals took Minter. Now they take Honey Badger. Good luck with that. The one team that probably least needs a kick returner.

Don't plan on PP returning kicks for long if he's their #1 CB. Mathieu should start as the slot corner.

Marquise Goodwin to the Bills. Told ya he would be gone by the end of the third round. They're giving Manuel some weapons up there.
