Grow up.

Hillman is a very good running back.

Why not Lamar Miller though? Almost nobody had him a top 100 player. all i've seen today were three very panicky reaches. Wolfe would have been there at 57, Osweiler at 67 and Hillman tomorrow. Not so much the idea as the execution, it's been a bit of a shambles tbh.

Maybe they prefer Hillman? Who knows, he was hugely productive at college and was his team's best player.

Here's a wild, wacky idea - how about you give him a chance before you berate absolutely everything your team ever does? Its grown very tiresome around here.

Mr. Guappa

Just realised that the Raiders have the last pick of the night. I thought they weren't picking 'til Tuesday.

he could end up better than miller once you get to this stage you cant rely solely on what the experts say if that was the case there would be no undrafted free agents

If you had Josh McDaniels in charge for two years you'd be very sketchy about any remotely sketchy personnel decision for a long time afterwards. I'll forever remember him as the man who broke my optimism with the Broncos and turned me into a miserable bastard.

And hey, i'll lay off my own team when we eventually win more than 8 games again, though with Manning in now, 10 has to be the target at least.

True. Would be nice to get him a bit more help though. Even the picks aren't too bad, its where they're being selected that i've the problem with.

Surprising stat on Twitter: Only one QB went today and it was Osweiler to us. Who woulda thunk it..

JaMarcus Hustle

Great pick from Seattle!

spiralism

Only took them three rounds to make a decent one! Good Flynn insurance there.

Imo we're worming our way back into the third some way or another. especially if Sanu is still lurking.

Oat23

Love that Wilson pick. Fun to watch at NC State before his transfer.

spiralism

Lamar Miller to the Jets, nice one there.

EDIT: Stupid twitter, it was Demario Davis

nerd69

cb still has some good value

Jack (Elway) is one of my best friends,” said Osweiler about John Elway’s son. “We lived one floor away from each other back in the dorms at Arizona State. Jack and myself have become great friends over the past three years, like I said I feel this is a perfect fit, and I can’t wait to get to Denver.

Love the enthusiasm mind but that's one way to get noticed!

Ronaldinho

GAMEPASS BACK WORKING !!!

Russell Wilson's wife was very happy he got drafted.

spiralism

...and there goes Sanu

JaMarcus Hustle

That Sanu prank phonecall story is awful! :eek:

....and a little bit funny!

JaMarcus Hustle

Gonna go with the Pats selecting one of DeQuan Menzie, Ron Brooks or Joe Adams up here.

RB for the Ravens

Ok Ricky Williams retired but we drafted Anthony Allen last year and he was going to step up

I was definitely not expecting a RB this high

spiralism

I just found out who coached Ronnie Hillman as a kid:



No, i'm not taking the piss either.

Also, the longer Lamar Miller and his 4.40 40yd time wait around, the closer he gets to being picked by Oakland at the end of the round :pac:

al davis is gone though dont think davis junior shares his hard on for the combine

UnitedIrishman

Slightly drunk in the middle of this and NFL network is telling me all sorts of bat**** crazy stuff.. aside from that Sanu to Bengals in the third is a really good pick IMO.

Where we now?

Ahh but it'll take a bit more than that for people to stop associating good 40 times with the Raiders...some things never change!

Miller needs surgery after the draft, hence the reluctance from anyone to pick him.
