The Jaguars need to do something about their wide receiver sitch, especially considering the fact that Jimmy Smith is no spring  . They have done a decent job going about repairing their defense this offseason via free-agency. It still needs work, but... As for Taylor Jacobs, well, historically Florida wideouts  . I also think that Washington's physical dimensions and attributes are more impressive!  All of that explanation coming from an NFL draft  or, to be euphemistic,  .

"Melvin Tuten did an adequate job last season, but he is a much better fit as a backup. Gross is a natural athlete and a fantastic run blocker. In the passing game, he has good, quick footwork and excellent balance."
Also, I think just like my pick with Washington on Rex Grossman, the pick with Minnesota is quite odd. The Vikings do NOT need a TE as they got two good blockers and a go receiving TE to begin with instead the Vikings need a lot of help on defense, and cornerback Marcus Trufant is a big possibility, but with the signing of Denard Walker via free agency, I think they'll take the best available defensive lineman and grab a corner later on the first day. Robertson and Chris Hovan would be a disruptive force on the inside.

Tallman Gardner in the 4th round maybe. I am very confused by your picks, Reaper.
Joppru and Gardner?
Don't you think the Vikes need every position but TE and QB with Chamberlin and Kleinsasser?
Don't you think the Pats need defense? They have the oldest D in the league. Need secondary help AND LB help. The top two LB are still on the board. I am 99.999999999999999999999% sure the Pats would take any defensive player over Gardner. Even if they needed another WR with Brown, Patten, Branch et al.., have you ever heard of Taylor Jacobs, Brandon Lloyd, Boldin, Bryant Johnson, or Teyo Johnson????
Just for kicks, i got the draft compilations...
WR: AVG= their average draft spot.
Rank AVG Player School
1 2.00 Charles Rogers Michigan State
2 7.40 Andre Johnson Miami
3 17.00 Taylor Jacobs Florida
4 24.50 Brandon Lloyd Illinois
5 25.00 Anquan Boldin FSU
6 25.50 Kelley Washington Tennessee
7 30.50 Bryant Johnson Penn State
8 31.00 Teyo Johnson Stanford
What really gets me, Reaper, is that you seem to have some interesting insight on all your other posts. I am truly gladyou joined this site cause you do have good comments and good participation.
Oh well.....at least we're having fun.

Okay, Reapman Grim definitely has earned the criticism, the censure, he is receiving. That having been said, this thing is kind of dying out. Let's stop spending so much time getting on his case and PICK! It is clear at this point in time that waiting for others to join in is pointless, even counterproductive if people who want to contribute, BUT really don't follow the goings-on of the NFL draft, make picks (case in point, perhaps). While complaining about Reapman, the draft has COMPLETELY stalled. Those who are really into it and "in the know", get on it. Get this thing back goin' and try to provide our visitors with the best you can give 'em and stop whinin' about Reapman and waiting around for perhaps more Reapmen, so to speak, to join in (and muck things up... that is the concern, right?)! Just pick!

I'll try and make it up else where. Thanks guys . carry on |

No worries, friend! I am kind of a when it comes to this stuff myself. I actually only thought one of your picks was "way" off, that's being Joppru. Leftwich was a great pick and, personally, I did not think that Gardner was all that bad. Truth is, the Patriots could use some help at wideout!

... but that is the beauty of this thing... anything goes. 
, go ahead and make a "good" pick for the Patriots 
and then I'll go for my team, the Broncos 
!
draft? God, if this were only to really happen!
