2014 Draft Game Day 1

[Corsi]

LOL

 

[Sportsbstn]

wow

 

[jsinger121]

Justin Gilbert to team with Joe Haden

 

[ElcaballitoMVP]

WOW, didn't see that one coming

 

[Bozo Texino]

Woooooooow.  So much for my whole "three Aggies in a row" thing.

 

[Rico Guapo]

Nice pick by Cleveland there.

 

[soxhop411]

shocking

 

[StuckOnYouk]

If they get the guy they wanted all along only to surrender a 5th from this year and get a 1st and 4th from next year, outstanding

 

[mauf]

Wait, what?

 

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

HAHAHAHAHA! Brownstown.

 

[Freddy Linn]

They could have had him at 9.

 

[RedOctober3829]

This is fucked up.. Browns gonna Browns.

 

[Ed Hillel]

LOLOLOLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I don't use Twitter at all, and I thought the TV Coverage was live.  I mean, how much of a delay is there?  7 seconds or something.  Seems strange that Twitter has it that much quicker.

 

[Jake Peavy's Demons]

Justin Gilbert to team with Joe Haden

Should be a very interesting duo to watch!

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Wow! Manziel getting the full Brady Quinn!

How does this affect chances of Bridgewater getting to 29

 

[SoxFanInPdx]

"Cleveland Sucks" chant in the background.

 

[RIrooter09]

You guys need a QB...

 

[mascho]

Just when they were showing signs of brillance.

 

[Reverend]

Is Cleveland so much better than I thought last year that the CB is gonna turn them around...?

 

[Dogman]

Yeah, he would have been there at 9

 

[Rough Carrigan]

Cleveland. Competent. Well run franchise!

You know that a large part of America attributes this to the wisdom of Sonny Weaver Jr and will be shocked the next time they see Dennis Leary on TV because he should be back at the stadium watching film not coasting on bad comedy.

 

[nothumb]

wow, that was interesting

First year watching the draft?

It's possible the QB they want will be there at 26.

Twitter has TV scooped by several minutes sometimes

 

[richgedman'sghost]

Why are people getting mad because someone posted the pick?  Is there coverage somewhere that's happening before the tv coverage?

justin gilbert? Am I too early?

 

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

Vikings take Manziel. No-brainer.

 

[dbn]

Min probably called them, said someone wants our pick and is offering a 6th. Will you go 5th?

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Wtf do you trade up one, give up a 5th for that right, only to select a guy who could have picked with your original selection?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Any pics of the sisters rack?

 

[mauf]

So no JF to Minny, else they would've kept the pick, right?

 

[Reverend]

You guys need a QB...

That USA Today Drafting article is getting interesting... who wants to complain about Patriots drafting right about now?
 
This is confusing as hell.

You can usually see on TV that the "PICK IS IN" graphic comes up a good 5 minutes before the pick is announced.  Guys like La Canfora find out and post on Twitter when the pick is in.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Yeah, Mike Lombardi's not coming through that door in Cleveland....

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Now, I really don't understand the trade to move up and get him.  Vikings probably weren't taking him.  I love Gilbert, but I think he might very well be the 3rd best corner in the draft, behind Dennard and Fuller.  That's interesting to say the least.

 

[Section30]

Cleveland trying to build using the Seahawks template ?

 

[mabrowndog]

It's possible the Vikings were about to trade their pick to another team that wanted Gilbert, and the Browns felt they needed to make their move.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Dodge a bullet here and Manziel available at 29?

 

[Freddy Linn]

Min probably called them, said someone wants our pick and is offering a 6th. Will you go 5th?

Someone being DET specifically.

 

[Corsi]

 

Peter King ‏@SI_PeterKing  37s
Not what I would have done.
 

 

[E5 Yaz]

You know, if browns heard some team who wanted Gilbert was calling the Vikes ... it was a smart trade

Maybe it wasn't that bad after all.

That's the only possible explanation. Meanwhile the Vikings could have found out Gilbert was Clevelands guy and played them like a tool Belichickian style.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I think the next team to trade up takes Manziel, unless the Vikings take him right here, but I'm guessing they pick Mosley. . 

 

[SouthernBoSox]

Yea, I mean, if that was Clevelands guy then they did well there. You don't risk it if the cost is only a 5th.

 

[Super Nomario]

I don't understand the hate for this ... most of the mocks I saw had Gilbert going 10 or 11. Grabbing him at 8 is hardly a reach.

 

[Tony C]

Wtf do you trade up one, give up a 5th for that right, only to select a guy who could have picked with your original selection?

 
 
Mayock mentioned he thought all along Zimmer wanted Gilbert for Minnesota. So...who knows, still seems weird to me.

 

[axx]

Have to wonder now when the next QB will be taken. It might be awhile.
