2017 NFL Draft thread

That last guy was hard to watch...
 
For Steelers here's my order - Watt, Budda, Njoku, King, Awuzie, Melifonwu, trade back

I have a feeling Rueben's going to be our pick.

Something tells me Taco Charlton may also be in play. The more I read on him, the thing that kept coming up was that he's still improving and may be a much better NFL player than what he showed at Michigan. An ascending player, if you will. Given they drafted Bud last year who also had inconsistant game tape, plus the dinner date at his pro day.... not saying it's gonna happen, just keeping that in mind.

And off the board he goes, lol
 
Did I miss something, is TMC behind the scenes at the draft?

Teally glad Steelers didn't draft Tak McKinley! What an idiot. It's not about his grandma, it's about him.

His grandmother raised him. His dad wasn't in his life. Mother left him there as well (drugs). She raised him, died while he was in high school. He promised her he would make it. Dude slept on the floor forever staying with whatever family he had. When he went to UCLA, the coach came in to check on him because he was always in his room. Takk said it was the first bed he had and he liked it.

That's pretty tough to say about the kid - read his story and you'll understand his emotion. It just needs to be harnessed. Once he gets "that" - watch out...
 
Guy on the radio said he was watching Charlton and every time the OL got his hands on him, he folded. Called him "Soft Taco". :whistle1:
 
Maybe Cleveland is moving up for a QB so we don't steal him. Davis Webb?
 
All I know is we don't want Taco Charlton.
 
Where are you guys getting this info so early?
 
Hearing Njoku.
