Official 2010 NFL Draft Thread

[lukethedrifter]

Forget trading the pick. The Rams think an exciting QB prospect will put more butts in the seats than the best player available? Just imagine how two of them, embroiled in a multi-year QB controversy that starts today, would excite the fanbase. Draft Clausen.

It's not like I didn't suggest that six pages ago. Or 4 or 7.

I'm just being petulant and panning the stupid Bradford pick.

Rams on the clock...

Claussen's stock really dropped after his last workout, I understand. Aopparently he threw a few intereceptions, and tried to blame it on the receivers......... which didn't make him any friends.

How would he throw interceptions in a workout? It was against air, and throwing to his own receivers with scouts watching. He never worked out before that because of his toe.

I'm pretty sure his last workout was like the 10th and he completed 57 of 59 or something, overthrowing two deep balls.

Exactly. That was his one and only workout, and it was against air, throwing to his own WR's.

There's no way he threw interceptions at any point since the season, so I'm not sure what Soc is talking about.

the interception stuff was on the QB camp with Gruden that was shown on SportsCenter. Gruden showed him a couple of picks from his time at ND to illustrate mistakes and Clausen pretty much threw his young receivers under the bus by claiming he threw it where he was supposed to but the receivers ran the wrong routes. Not many people liked that.

Rams take Saffold.

I knew they'd go tackle at some point, but I thought Brown was a bit better. Bleh.

If he was telling the truth I can't blame him.

[Lesson]

Saffold is a good pick but they have to get a TE or WR in Round 3.

Vikings pass on Claussen. Does he have like 5 RoethlisKobe's that the public doesn't know about or something?

[cpebbles]

There only have to be like 3 teams that aren't high on him for him to slip past the middle of the second round. Just not a lot of teams in the position to spend an early pick on a QB, and they're right at the top of the draft.
