| 2009 NFL Draft | |||||
| Round/Pick | Team |
Player, Position, School | Comments | ||
| 1.1 |  DET |
QB Matthew Stafford, Georgia | Stafford has impressive skills, and the Lions needed to make this pick. Stafford didn't really have to carry his team at UGA, as talented as they were, so it remains to be seen how he does in such a talent-poor situation. | ||
| 1.2 |  STL |
LT Jason Smith, Baylor | mith is an impressive athlete, and a good player on tape. By my evaluation, he isn't as good as Clady, Otah, or Long last season, but he's ahead of Chris Williams and Sam Baker. In this Draft, Smith is fine as the 2nd Pick. | ||
| 1.3 |  KC |
DE Tyson Jackson, LSU | This is not surprising, considering the team has been leaking this to the media for a week, so as to limit the criticism for reaching. Jackson is talented, and will fit well in the scheme that KC is implementing. This is philosophy over value, because there are better players available. | ||
| 1.4 |  SEA |
SLB Aaron Curry, Wake Forest | There is a lot to like about this pick. Curry is a player who can help Seattle compete with Arizona for a division title now. I think Curry is an instant upgrade over the departed Julian Peterson, and I credit Seattle for doing something smart here. | ||
| 1.5 |  NYJ |
QB Mark Sanchez, Southern Cal | You have to hand it to the Jets for doing what it takes to get their guy. Sanchez seems to be a guy who can be successful under the NYC microscope. He's more likely to play right away than Stafford, due to the lack of good incumbent options for the Jets. For the Browns, they got a nice haul for the pick, and it was pretty unconventional, favoring players over picks. Well-played by both teams. |
||
| 1.6 |  CIN |
T Andre Smith, Alabama | his is a Bengals type of O-Lineman, and he will be good for a lot of years. He's not really the quick-footed guy you usually see on the Left, but he's physically dominant. He's like Jake Long. Cincinnati did well here, assuming he grows up and does the right things. | ||
| 1.7 |  OAK |
WR Darius Heyward-Bey, Maryland | Al Davis takes the second-coming of Ashley Lelie. Evidently, he's not satisfied with only having the first-coming on his roster. An "interesting" pick, like Mike Mayock said. | ||
| 1.8 |  JAX |
LT Eugene Monroe, Virginia | Monroe is very good in pass protection, and very well-coached. He comes from a UVA program which has been churning out good pro offensive linemen. Jacksonville had a huge need on the O-line, and made a great value pick here. | ||
| 1.9 |  GB |
NT BJ Raji, Boston College | The Packers bolster their new 3-4 scheme with the addition of the Draft's best NT. Their priorities are questionable, as they have the worst OT situation in the NFL, and Michael Oher is still on the board, but Raji is a great pick for shoring up the defense. | ||
| 1.10 |  SF |
WR Michael Crabtree, Texas Tech | rabtree is going to be terrific in San Francisco. The 49ers just hit a homerun with this pick. The delicious part is that he's right across the bay from Oakland, and will serve as a constant reminder of Al Davis's foolishness. | ||
| 1.11 |  BUF |
DE Aaron Maybin, Penn State | aybin has a great first step, and plays with a high motor, but he can't really play right away. This is about projection to what he could be more than what he is right now. For my money, Brian Orakpo and Robert Ayers are both better. | ||
| 1.12 |  DEN |
RB Knowshon Moreno, Georgia |
This isn't the direction I would have gone, but Moreno is an impressive young talent. Zappa and Steve O' are happy, and if they're happy, I can be a little happy too. The idea seems better as the minutes go by, and this gives us reason to hope for a very potent running game in 2009. |
||
| 1.13 |  WAS |
DE Brian Orakpo, Texas | Orakpo will be a good player in the Redskins scheme. This is a case of taking the best player available. The Redskins showed pretty rare discipline (for them) staying in their spot, and not mortgaging the future for Sanchez. | ||
| 1.14 |  NO |
DB Malcolm Jenkins, Ohio State | Jenkins lacks the speed to play man-to-man at CB in the NFL, but he can be a good player if the Saints play a lot of zone. Jenkins' long-term future is probably at S. | ||
| 1.15 |  HOU |
LB Brian Cushing, Southern Cal | Cushing will be a key piece of what is shaping up to be a talented Houston front-7. Houston is on its way to being a winning team, and Cushing will be a big part of that ascendancy. | ||
| 1.16 |  SD |
DE/OLB Larry English, Northern Illinois | This is a pretty smart pick for the Chargers, and signals that they won't be paying big money to Shawne Merriman after this season. Hey, somebody has to get stoned by Ryan Clady, right? You could do worse than English for that job. | ||
| 1.17 |  TB |
QB Josh Freeman, Kansas State | This is a good situation for Freeman, where he can sit behind a serviceable guy like Bryon Leftwich until he is ready to play. Freeman's talent is second-to-none in this draft. | ||
| 1.18 | DEN |
DE Robert Ayers, Tennessee | Robert Ayers only really did it for one season at Tennessee, but he's a guy who is going to be an excellent player. His scheme versatility will be very helpful considering that Mike Nolan wants to use a hybrid front sometimes. This is a guy who should be a key piece of an improved defense. | ||
| 1.19 |  PHI |
WR Jeremy Maclin, Missouri | This is a very interesting pick. Maclin is a great value at #19, and will team with DeSean Jackson to give Donovan McNabb some scary weapons on the outside. You kind of waste the return ability of one of the two, though, in this case. | ||
| 1.20 | DET |
TE Brandon Pettigrew, Oklahoma State | This is a smart pick. Pettigrew is the rare TE who blocks and catches equally well. A good TE is a young QB's best friend. | ||
| 1.21 |  CLE |
C Alex Mack, California | This is a solid pick, the kind you make in the course of building a winning football team. He can play RG or C in the short-term, but he'll eventually man the C position for a decade. The only question I have is, why not Beanie Wells here? Jamal Lewis is washed-up. | ||
| 1.22 |  MIN |
WR Percy Harvin, Florida | This is the most explosive offensive player in the whole draft. If he can stay healthy, and leave the grass alone, he'll play in lots of Pro Bowls. An inspired pick for the Vikings. | ||
| 1.23 |  BAL |
OT Michael Oher, Ole Miss | This is typical of Baltimore, to draft for value. Oher will probably play on the right side at first, but I think he is better than Jared Gaither, and he may ultimately bump Gaither to the right side. Nice pick for Ozzie Newsome, as usual. | ||
| 1.24 |  ATL |
DT Peria Jerry, Ole Miss | The second Rebel in a row to be drafted, Jerry is a Falcons kind of D-Lineman. He will be asked to play one gap and penetrate, and that's what he does well. | ||
| 1.25 |  MIA |
CB Vontae Davis, Illinois | If Davis matures and finds consistency, this could be a steal. If he continues to show the immaturity he showed in college, he won't. He was reportedly coddled in college, and that certainly won't happen in Miami. | ||
| 1.26 | GB |
OLB Clay Matthews, Southern Cal | This is a pretty underwhelming trade-up for the Packers. Is Matthews going to play behind AJ Hawk and Aaron Kampman, or is he going to bump Hawk inside? There were better players and bigger needs that the Packers could have taken care of here. The price to move up 15 spots was high too. A real head-scratcher here. | ||
| 1.27 |  IND |
RB Donald Brown, UConn | This is an inspired pick. The Colts struggled some on offense this past season, especially in running the ball. Brown and Addai will make for an excellent tandem. | ||
| 1.28 | BUF |
C/G Eric Wood, Louisville | This is the best interior Offensive Lineman in this Draft. Buffalo had a bigger need at T, but Wood is a better player than Eben Britton or William Beatty. Nice value pick here. | ||
| 1.29 |  NYG |
WR Hakeem Nicks, North Carolina | A big, physical receiver who will fight for the ball in traffic. I think the Giants should have traded for Braylon Edwards, but Nicks will be a good player for them. | ||
| 1.30 |  TEN |
WR Kenny Britt, Rutgers | The Titans finally took a WR in Round 1, and Jamie Dukes can't even celebrate that much, since his man Vince Young isn't the starting QB anymore. | ||
| 1.31 |  ARI |
RB Chris Wells, Ohio State | This is a pick which makes the Cardinals better. They have to be thrilled that he fell this far, but there was talk about a bone injury in his foot. | ||
| 1.32 |  PIT |
DT Evander Hood, Missouri | Hood is a good player, but this is weird from a priorities standpoint. They need help on the offensive line more than a developmental DE. | ||

why not? we appear to be that stupid. if im a NFL GM im on the phone offering mid rounders for hillis too.
Maybe you would enjoy another site a little better.
You may not like the picks, but “stupid” is typically reserved for trolls from other sites.
We don’t roll that way here. Do yourself (and your account with us) a favor and tone it down a bit. You can disagree without sounding like you just came over from the Denver Post message boards.

sorry, but im calling it like i see it. im not going to be all flowers and sunshine about the offseason plan being revealed to be completely seat of the pants made up as we go. we’re going backwards. it’s hard to watch.
here, here’s some positive thoughts: KM is a great guy, best RB on the board. I’m glad we have him, as long as Hillis continues to play. If we needed an RB, i’d be ecstatic.
Ayers might be the best guy in the draft. maybe, no one knows at this point.
maybe we’ll get sean smith or connor barwin to fall to us in the 2nd. those guys will be awesome imo.
Let's trade with Cleveland, they are in the mood
I agree, Larsen shouldn’t get any bigger. I am getting tired of his bone crushing hits knocking the pixels off my TV, once they fall to the floor they are very hard to find.

Mayock also called Cutler being the best QB in 06...

by PosterNutbag on Apr 25, 2009 4:31 PM MDT up reply actions
bigger isn't the final word ona player
Ayers is the best DLine technician in the draft. He can ‘morph’ into just about any type of player because of his versatility. A perfect pick, just higher than I’ve seen him projected. But after McDs interview yesterday, it amkes total sense.
There is no army so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

It's a Fairbanks-Bullough System.
Not a Phillips system, or even a zone blitz program.
Again, he wouldn’t be my choice, but he’s a perfect fit. (I’d prefer NT or OLB, but both picks have been solid).

he is a coachable end who can play standing up or with his hand down. I wondered if his technical knowhow would push him up Denver’s board, and I guess I got my answer…

As I said before,
My Mock is dead, BUT Moreno and Ayers = a mighty fine frist round haul. And yes, both picks make our Defense better and our team more dangerous in the short term and for the long haul.

Mayock absolutely loves Ayers if you're not watching
…the best coverage today. ESPN is a disaster.
Ayers, Moreno will be pro-bowlers no later than 3 years out. awesome
from ESPN scouting report on Ayers
Charged with aggravated assault in 2005 and Tennessee suspends him from team. School suspends him from summer school and puts him on indefinite suspension. Charges reportedly stem from fights between football players and fraternity members. The charge is later reduced to misdemeanor assault and Ayers pleads guilty. Reportedly, he was not the most coachable player early in his career but has since matured.
oof
I"m sure Nolan knows more than you and I put together
so I’ll hold judgement until they hit the field.
But, yes, I was surprised to see a character red flag on one of our 1st round picks, also.
Oof...
Yeah, I’m not feeling this one. Hopefully I’m wrong.
I love Greg Reynolds and I may be slightly ashamed to admit it.

I have a bad feeling Detroit will take Brace at #33. If not them, then someone in the 14 picks after that. What’s the (non-biased) opinion on here on the likelihood of him being available for Denver at #48?
it's highly unlikely
but I hope, if God loves me at all, Maualuga drops to 48 or Denver trades up to get him.

Amazing...
Denver didn’t take either player I would have (or even position), but I would still have to give Denver a strong A- so far. RB (helps the defense by using offensive ball control), and the best DE in the draft (not a NT, but still 1/3 of the DL).

What do we have to trade up for rey?
i am not comfortable with trading our #48 because I can see brace landing there!
what else do we trade? both of our thirds to NE for the former cheifs pick? lets be smart and let the chips fall

"We should have kept Seattle and dumped San Diego from the Division"

I agree with those as the two most likely picks.
William Beatty as a dark horse.
Yeah
I don’t think we should be trading up. We aren’t good enough to fall in love with players right now.

I am not saying trade up for the pick. I am saying it will cost a lot

Look at our LB’s
ILB:
Davis/ Larsen
OLB:
Moss/Bailey/ Woodyard/Williams/Dumervil (some) Ayers (some)/ Green
even if you move Williams to the middle we still have a lot of linebackers and there are only 3/4 slots for them how would you line them up and give everyone playing time

Pretty much how I feel
I want to see how these guys can play. I really haven’t though LBs were a HUGE need. Ayers was a great pick because he’s a DL first, and will be a rush LB. I’m excited. I want to see some DBs.

I guess what I'm saying about ReyRey is this:
you have to seriously consider a guy that was at one point projected to go at 10th overall.
you have to, especially if he’s gone down this far. period.

falling has been a major theme in recent drafts. Posluzny a few years ago, Connor last year, Laurinaitis and Rey this year.

Exactly!
I posted on another thread, at which point do they trade up to nab him?
This is what we wanted...
Hey, look what we got!
I say you at least try and trade up to 34 and nab him from NE. If not that, try at 36 with Cleveland.

Do we know exactly what the trade was for?
Which of our 1sts next year? Surely we got something else, like a 3rd?
I would have done it for Brace or Rey
Maybe this can help keep Royal OFF the ST and concentrate on WR role.
Sintim, Barwin, Brace, Gilbert are still on the board.
