Re: 2012 NFL Draft Day 3

FWIW i read somewhere that shanny and the skins thought leribeus would go in the 3rd or 4th round.

One thing you learn watching the draft over the years, especially in the late rounds, a LOT of teams "reach" for guys that are rated low on draft nick websites. Sometimes its a case of coaches and GM's thinking they're smarter then everyone else (see Gene Smiths 3rd round pick for Jax last night) and other times its because these scouts have more information and more time studying these players then public sources of information and understand how they fit into their system.

In regards to our new Guard hopefully its the latter.

Re: 2012 NFL Draft Day 3

Joe Adams, B Boykin, Nate Potter, B. Massie, and L. Miller are all good options... Joe Adams (if available) at 102 makes the most sense for us; played on the South squad at the Senior Bowl (which was coached by Shanahan) and had 7 rec, 114 yds in that game; and the possibility (not likely) that Boykin fell to us at 109 would be awesome.

I like both of those players but I think I'd be most satisfied with Massie and Miller in Round 4.

Would love to see Potter too! Great experience in the zone scheme and paved the way for Doug Martin at Boise. If we get Boykin today, the LeRibeus pick is water under the bridge.

Good to see the Warpath's talent evaluators out in full force this morning.

Re: 2012 NFL Draft Day 3

I see a lot of people pushing for a receiver....no. focus on need, o line, safety, corner. WR can wait, RB can wait. With our 4th rounders I will be happy with boykins and nate potter or massie.

Re: 2012 NFL Draft Day 3

Hope we get some more recognizable names today. If we don't know a guy, he's probably a reach, right?

Completely agree; CB, OL, are priorities regardless of the player's name.

Exactly. Well, one area of his game I really liked (which didnt show up on tape of course) was his name, Josh McRibeus. It will slot nicely behind Lichtensteiger on the depth chart. I was thinking about adding McRibeus to the "prove me wrong thread", but I thought that might be too soon in his 15 hour Redskin career.


We all want the samething and I hope he works out. Just a head-scratcher with alot of talent still on the board last night.

Ha. To be honest I have been so busy this year with my family, school, and of course a full time job I hardly know any names in this draft.

Nope, but when he is cut in August and placed on the practice squad what will the homers say?
