1st Round Draft Discussion, 2008

[Cringer]

And the first pick of the 2008 draft is.....

your momma

She was pretty good coming out of whatsomatta U.

6-3, 230, and tackled like a freight train.

[Cringer]

And it's Rodriguez. Was there any doubt he would be #1?

Now all the guy needs is a rookie QB (next year maybe? although 2.1 may get someone decent I guess) to protect.

Sorry, guys. I thought since I had a list, that it would pick when the draft started.

[JesterBlaze]

A stud LT is a dream start to a team like WV. I don't think trading down would've been in his best interest as there's no quick fix to his problems.

Not your problem man. It's ours for not noticing tat it was on and not picking for you. 8)

Well, he's no Grant But solid guy.

Jk, he's a real good pickup, should help WVA quite a bit. Grant and some small additions to my OL made Timmerman go crazy.

[Cringer]

And as I understand it, I am to pick for Wichita off of his list right now since he is pretty busy traveling.

[Cringer]

SO Wichita, with a decent LT and RT already, takes Vitale. I guess he is a hard guy to pass up though, a near franchise T I guess.

[SteveBsFan]

#2 goes to Vitale - RT

Not a shocking pick, although they do have some good tackles already. Pretty surprising with Brummitt available, but hard to pass up a stud tackle. Will Crump or Silas be on the move now?

[SteveBsFan]

My fingers are crossed David Weiner goes in the next 2 picks.

Maybe Weiner and Richmond perhaps

[Warhammer]

Vitale is an intriguing pick. You get an absolute stud if you keep him at RT, but what sort of hit does he take if he slides to LT. If his ratings stay in the upper 70s, I think you have to make that move.

I thought he was easily a top 3 pick.

[JesterBlaze]

Vitale doesn't make sense to me with two good/great tackles and a need at DE with Brummitt on the board.

I don't want to give too much away even though his pick has been made, but I can say that Wichita was not even close to looking at a DE with that pick.

[JesterBlaze]

If I'm doing the time conversion right (big if) then the draft clock is wrong. It says Louisiana's pick is about 7 hours from now.

Good catch.

Louisiana has until 4:12 PM CST. The utility clock is wrong for some reason.

I will wait to see if it does it on the next pick before I notify VPI.
