2011 NFL Draft Thread

If the Giants can keep Austin motivated they just made the best pick in the draft.

Bears trade up to take Stephen Paea just after Austin gets drafted.

[Wilson A2000]

Is he good?

[Mark Priors Calves]

what's the report on paea, draftgeeks?

[bukie]

Is he good?

The Bears were going to take Paea in the first if Carimi was gone, so at the very least they loved him.

[Wilson A2000]

Is he a three technique?

[Flames24Rulz]

I'm just thankful that the Giants took Austin. The Bears would've had a scary good first two rounds if Austin fell past New York.

[bukie]

Is he a three technique?

Yes.

Paea was the guy I really wanted for the Colts in the second round (although I was fine with the guy they took). From what I have read about him, he should be good for the Bears as well.

Should be a fine replacement for the spot vacated by Tommie Harris three years ago (he was finally released this offseason).

Three safeties off the board in the second that I thought were third rounders.

Expecting the Patriots to take at least one Illinois player in the next 5 picks. Edited April 30, 2011 by bukie

Paea is a real Lovie type of guy.

[tfarks]

Love the Bears draft so far. Paea is a beast.

[dew1679666265]

what's the report on paea, draftgeeks?

 

I think Paea had the best bench of anybody at the combine. He's a very powerful DT.

[bukie]

Pats draft an RB, but not the one I thought they would: Shane Vereen, RB California

From what it sounds like, the Bears would have taken Paea even if Austin was still on the board.

I think it was a combine record (unless I read the ESPN ticker incorrectly)

Best bench of anyone at the combine EVER. Broke the record with 49 reps.

Lions trade up, and draft LeShoure.

[SpongeWorthy]

Well you can never have too many good linemen but the Bears need to find a WR who can run a route correctly and isn't a midget.

[dew1679666265]

Lions give up a 3rd and 4th rounder and swap places with Seattle in the 5th and 7th for Leshoure.

 

Interesting, though I'm not sure I like Leshoure that much.

Lots of quantity but not much quality at the receiver position. No need to force a pick this early.

[bukie]

Ravens select Torrey Smith, WR Maryland

[sneakypower]

it does seem like a ton to give up for what's surely a part-time RB for us

 

hard to judge until i see what we do in FA for LB, CB, G
