| 2009 NFL Draft | |||||
| Round/Pick | Team |
Player, Position, School | Comments | ||
| 2.33 |  DET |
FS Louis Delmas, Western Michigan | Delmas will be a very good player for the Lions. He is really tough in run support, and hits very hard. Guru isn't a fan of the Lions' draft so far, but I am. (This is Ted on the comments, for those who can't tell.) | ||
| 2.34 |  NE |
SS Patrick Chung, Oregon | A thumper who can eventually replace Rodney Harrison at Strong Safety. A nice pick. | ||
| 2.35 |  STL |
MLB James Laurinaitis, Ohio State | This is a guy who fits the 4-3 scheme that Steve Spagnuolo favors. I'm not surprised that he was more highly valued here than Maualuga. | ||
| 2.36 |  CLE |
WR Brian Robiskie, Ohio State | The Browns take a hometown guy, who played for Chagrin Falls High School, and Ohio State University. The Browns are replacing Donte Stallworth with this pick, and really, getting a better possession guy. | ||
| 2.37 |  DEN |
CB Alphonso Smith, Wake Forest | I love Alphonso Smith!!!! This guy has tremendous ball skils and anticipation, and will always be among the league leaders in INTs as a Number 2 CB. He's a starting nickelback right now. This is a great pick. | ||
| 2.38 |  CIN |
MLB Rey Maualuga, Southern Cal | This might be a really good pick for the Bengals, and everybody knows I am not a Rey lover. His college teammate/babysitter Keith Rivers is already in Cincinnati, which may help him get acclimated. I would be somewhat hopeful if I were a Bengals fan. | ||
| 2.39 |  JAX |
RT Eben Britton, Arizona | The Jags are beefing up their O-Line for the future. Britton is an RTO, but you don't need him to play the left side when you already drafted Eugene Monroe. | ||
| 2.40 | NE |
NT Ron Brace, Boston College | This is a hedge against losing Vince Wilfork in Free Agency after this season. This is a classic New England plan-ahead pick. | ||
| 2.41 | NE |
CB Darius Butler, UConn | The whole world knew that Bill Belichick wanted Butler, and he got his man. He will be the nickelback this season, and replace Shawn Springs after a year or two. | ||
| 2.42 |  BUF |
CB Jairus Byrd, Oregon | The son of former Charger Gill Byrd. Like with any slow CB, I'm not really much of a fan. | ||
| 2.43 |  CAR |
DE Everette Brown, Florida State | Memo to Jamie Dukes: Florida State is NOT the Harvard of the South. It may not even be among the top 5 academic schools in the state of Florida. Everette Brown is a 40 front end, who is going to a good situation for his growth and development. He's a little Jarvis Moss-like, but the Panthers system makes me think he'll do pretty well there. | ||
| 2.44 |  MIA |
QB Pat White, West Virginia | Here is a guy who can play in the (real, actual) Wildcat for a year, and eventually challenge Chad Pennington for the starting job at QB. He's a better thrower than people thought, but a developmental prospect. | ||
| 2.45 |  NYG |
LB Clint Sintim, Virginia | Very interesting pick here. The Giants like to blitz with the strongside LB from a 4-3, and you have to think Sintim would be well-suited for that, coming from UVA's 3-4 scheme. | ||
| 2.46 |  HOU |
DE/LB/TE Connor Barwin, Cincinnati | A great athlete, but maybe not ready to play yet. He will be a big-time contributor later though. For a 4-3 team, he's probably a SLB, and plays in goal-line packages as a TE. | ||
| 2.47 |  OAK |
S Mike Mitchell, Ohio University | Another height/weight/speed reach for Al Davis. No surprise there. | ||
| 2.48 | DEN |
S Darcel McBath, Texas Tech | He's a deep-half coverage safety, which the Broncos haven't had in awhile. I don't know about the pick value here, but McBath is a good player. | ||
| 2.49 |  SEA |
C Max Unger, Oregon | This is a good value for the Seahawks, picking up a probable 10 year starter at Center. Well-played. | ||
| 2.50 | CLE |
WR Mohamed Massequoi, Georgia | The second straight WR for the Browns. This may still portend for a divestiture of Braylon Edwards, though I wouldn't let him go if I were them. | ||
| 2.51 | BUF |
G Andy Levitre, Oregon State | Another interior lineman for a team which needs a Left Tackle. Buffalo is confusing me today, with some very meh thinking. | ||
| 2.52 | CLE |
DE David Veikune, Hawaii | A pass-rusher in a 40 front going to a 30 front team. Kind of a weird pick. | ||
| 2.53 |  PHI |
RB LeSean McCoy, Pittsburgh | A quick, versatile back who will be effective in a tandem. He catches the ball well, and can take some wear off of Brian Westbrook. | ||
| 2.54 |  MIN |
RT Phil Loadholt, Oklahoma | An RTO who can put a DE on skates in the running game. He struggles against speed, as in the Texas game when Orakpo ate his lunch for him. | ||
| 2.55 |  ATL |
S William Moore, Missouri | Looked like a Top 10 pick as a junior, and like a late round guy as a senior. Which is the real guy? | ||
| 2.56 |  IND |
DT Fili Moala, Southern Cal | A three-technique who sometimes loses leverage. He is a pentrating type like the Colts like. | ||
| 2.57 |  BAL |
DE Paul Kruger, Utah | Baltimore strikes again, getting great value in the second round. Kruger gets after the ball on every play, and will be a great addition to the Ravens defense. | ||
| 2.58 | NE |
T Sebastian Vollmer, Houston | This is kind of a reach, but he may be able to ultimately replace Nick Kaczur at RT. He does have a great nickname, Sea-bass. | ||
| 2.59 | CAR |
DB Sherrod Martin, Troy | If you listen to the coaching staff at Troy, they say that Martin is better than Leodis McKelvin was. He's a little over-age (at 24) and thin for a S, but could be a good NFL player. | ||
| 2.60 | NYG |
LT William Beatty. UConn | Beatty is a good athlete, who has the potential to start in the NFL. David Diehl struggles in pass protection for the Giants, so I am sure they'd like to move him inside to G. | ||
| 2.61 | MIA |
CB Sean Smith, Utah | This is a Parcells kind of pick, taking a big guy relative to his positional average. He's a terrific prospect, and will be a steal. I wish the Broncos had gotten him. | ||
| 2.62 |  TEN |
DT Sen'Derrick Marks, Auburn | He doesn't replace Albert Haynesworth, but he can be a good rotational player inside. | ||
| 2.63 |  ARI |
OLB Cody Brown, UConn | A fourth UConn player goes in the first two rounds. What happened to it only being a basketball school? Brown is a good player, and will help right away in Arizona. | ||
| 2.64 | DEN |
TE Richard Quinn, North Carolina | A real in-line thumper, who was under-utilized as a receiver at UNC. This is a good value at this point in the draft. If you want to get better in the red zone, TEs like this guy are helpful to that end. | ||

the 48th slot
Gents —
Forgive me if this has been addressed on your site already today, but can someone please clarify why Denver’s picking at 48 instead of 44? I know it was a pick from Houston, but…
Please help?
No
It wasn’t a pick from Houston. 6 teams were tied at 8-8. They rotate each round so they don’t pick in the same order.
they picked first int he first, so they pick last int he second...for those who had an 8-8 record last year.
Verbose in style, dispersion of thought, procrastination in life.
We finished with the same record as a number of teams
we had the weakest schedule, so we picked first in the first round. In the following rounds, they cycle the teams with 8-8 records, so we pick last in the 2nd, second to last in the 3rd, etc.
Time to galvanize
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

I think I need it for myself--if defensive back--I really thought Sean Smith was a better choice
I wonder if in the turmoil this off-season didn’t affect our scouting team.

it turns out like Eddie Royal as most of us were hoping for DeSawn Jackson at our #2 pick last year…
yeah, i remember everyone having a conniption over that.

there's still 5 more rounds to go.

We picked this guy over SEAN SMITH,
JARRON GILBERT, FILI MOALA, and SOME FOURTH GUY THAT I CANNOT REMEMBER.
FIRE MCDANIELS (kidding, though I don’t like this pick. Not at all.)
I seem to have lost my future self.
We should have gone with that fourth guy

uhm...I was good with 1 cb
but I give this pick a fail for sure…there was much better picks to be had at need areas…I don’t get this one
I don’t want breakaway speed. I want break-some-poor-fool-as-I-bowl-you-over power getting 6 yards off a play that should have been stopped for 2 at most.
McBath is a Safety not a corner
I do not get it either

There you go
The Cutler deal’s done. It appears that, contrary to what we all once thought, we got the short end of the deal.
At least pick players we need. Was it so hard?
how can you say that
especially when NONE of these players have even played one down in the NFL yet?
Tell me, how does that work?

And we traded a 1st rounder next year for a 2nd rounder this year when we already had 10 picks?

I see this as
We have the players on the current roster that will contribute right away in the 3-4, maybe they saw something in the mini camps that led them to believe that D-line was no longer an issue.

has McBath as their 2nd best FS
by gnarlybroncodude on Apr 25, 2009 6:50 PM MDT up reply actions
Scott Wright's scouting report on McBath.
Strengths:
Adequate height and bulk…Very athletic…Great leaper…Smooth with fluid hips…Excellent range…Decent hands and ball skills…Is able to match up in coverage…Reliable tackler…Nice instincts…Smart…Hard worker…A team leader and captain…Productive…Tons of experience.
Weaknesses:
Has short arms…Not real strong…Needs to be more physical…Can be too aggressive at times…Isn’t a big hitter…Sub par run defender…Has trouble getting off blocks…Not really a playmaker…Bit of a ’ tweener ?
Notes:
A three-year starter for the Red Raiders…Began his college career as a cornerback…Redshirted in 2004…Broke his arm in the preseason and missed six games in 2005…Moved to safety in 2006 and started there the next three seasons…Named 2nd Team All-Big 12 in 2006 and 1st Team in 2008…Solid all-around player with a nice blend of physical tools and intangibles..Profiles as a starting free safety at the next level.
wow
Dart board anyone?

Sounds pretty good to me
Maybe safety isn’t the most pressing need that we have, but it’s something that we all know will have to be addressed eventually. We’ve been ignoring it for years.
at least since Lynch got lynched.
"It means nothing to throw for 4500 yards, 25 touchdowns, and you dont win" -Brandon Marshall
agreed, good point.
we haven’t REALLY addressed the safety position in 4 years…probably more.

those aren't mutually exclusive
too aggressive indicates that he sometimes takes changes trying to make a play. Physicality refers to hitting, getting off blocks, etc.
No they are not mutually exclusive and I agree
Just odd that the two descriptions were side by side… just joking around a bit with all this hot air blowing around…

And I’ll be the first to tell you that Moore sucks. I would have rather had Sean Smith, but McBath is a good safety also.

HT said earlier that there's a reason Rey Rey fell so far, we're just not privy to it.
Perhaps this applies to Sean Smith, too.

I'm a Mizzou fan
And I’ll be the first to tell you that Moore sucks. I would have rather had Sean Smith, but McBath is a good safety also.
I seem to have lost my future self.
Looking at the scouting reports,
Moore over McBath is a no brainer if Moore regains his Jr. form. If he plays like he did as a senior they are comparable. Rashad Johnson has better intangibles but McBath is more athletic. It’s a reach but not a huge one. I think we are all going a bit nuts cause we didn’t have him on our radar here.
If William Moore
Plays like he did as a junior he will be a beast.

So here's what I'll hang on to here.
The Patriots have often confused the heck out of fans and experts with their picks. It’s because they pick the players to go in the system more than anything else. They’ve done well doing that.
These picks don't seem like system picks
They seem like desperation picks
"Me fail english, that unpossible" - Ralph Wiggum
"Duffman is thrusting in the direction of the problem" - Duffman
"Good, bad, I'm the one with the gun, A-hole" - Ash from Army of Darkness
I don't understand this sentiment
Every one of our picks has been directed towards addressing a need.
How
Did we have a need at RB? Seems like we have a stockpile of 4-3 DE trying to convert to OLB, why add another one. We signed a number 2 CB, why spend a 1st rounder next year on a marginal player. next year’s draft is loaded, this year’s is horrible. A marginal safety in a draft with no good safeties, yet pass on Sean Smith who would be a much better S/CB than who we picked. You don’t reach for need. I like Moreno, but he would of been there at 18 or you could get the same guy later in the 2nd round.

I gotta say, they don’t listen to anyone else but themselves. They draft what they want and what they think is good. I like this as opposed to listening to the Mel Kiper’s of the world.
Exactly.
These guys knew who they wanted and got them. If three of these guys can contribute, this draft is a home run.

Scott Wright's Scouting Report on Richard Quinn
Strengths:
Terrific size and bulk…Strong and powerful…Outstanding blocker…Is stout at the point of attack…Gets a good push in the run game…Able to fit in space…Understands leverage, positioning and angles…Adequate hands…Uses his frame well as a receiver…Real tough…A hard worker.
Weaknesses:
Lacks great timed speed…Doesn’t get much separation…Not a vertical threat who will stretch the field…Isn’t very elusive…Won’t do much after the catch…Is raw as a route runner…Extreme lack of production.
Notes:
Worked as a backup and special teamer as a true freshman…Missed the entire 2006 season with a broken shoulder blade…Took over a starting job in 2007 and 2008…Was hampered by a broken knuckle as a senior but played through it…Had another year of college eligibility available but he had already graduated and opted to go pro…Was not utilized much in the passing game, although the Tar Heels had three future pros at wideout…Profiles as a prototypical #2 tight end and a blocking specialist at the next level but should really excel in that role.
OMG!

I think this is a very appropriate pick. when Graham starts to get tired in several years Quinn will be coached up and ready to slap LBs around

might be appropriate if your team is in a position to worry about building depth for players in the twilight of their careers but I don’t think the Broncos are in that spot myself and I doubt I’m in the minority. They have much more pressing needs for help now.

The Ralphie Report - Go Buffs!...All Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
agree.
looks to me like McD drafts a lot like shanny. Trading up for players we targeted even though we could very well get them where we pick anyway. We are definitely not maximizing the value of where we select. We could have gotten a player equivalent to A. Smith at 48 and I’m almost positive that Quinn would have lasted to our first third if we’d stayed put.
Trying to convince myself there is a good plan here but my initial reaction isn’t positive.
On a side note,
I guess we traded OUR 2010 first rounder for Alphonso Smith. I guess McD thinks we’ll do better than Chicago this year.. So… yeah… at least he is a believer

I want to believe
Do we even have legitimate starters on the front seven, at qb?
om gosh espn can't stop talking about cutler it's all they do
"according to the map, we've only gone 4 inches"
One thing I like about the high risk front office moves is
trading away so many high draft picks puts them on the spot. If they don’t get results it will be very easy to evaluate their personnel evaluation/acquisition skills. If their personnel skills are inadequate it will be easier to replace them. If they produce like they think they can, we will know very quickly and there will be more buy in for their techniques and proficiency.
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.
