BBTV Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So Marcus Smith, the guy the eagles took in the first round for some reason, said even he was surprised to get a call saying he was drafted because he thought second or possibly even third round. Way to go, Eagles. Ironically, he came to Louisville as a QB, but moved to defense because of Bridgewater. 3 years later, he ends up getting drafted above the guy who he couldn't unseat in college.

Raysfan12 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Seeing Teddy Bridgewater and Calvin Pryor in the 1st round is not a surprise. However, I still can't believe that Marcus Smith was drafted in the first round. I seriously thought he was a 2nd or 3rd round pick and when the Eagles picked him with the 26th, it blew my mind. 3 Louisville players in the 1st round is not bad for a basketball school (Tied with Texas A&M for most 1st round picks). For any Vikings fan in the board, Teddy is a class act on and off the field. I hope you guys enjoy having him in Minnesota w/ Adrian Peterson because he's going to be a special player in his own right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burkell007 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So does Cleveland try to make sure they get lee with the 4th pick in the 2nd round?? Give manziel WR's/TE's of Cameron, little and lee?? And any other team that needs a WR might want to ask buffalo what they like for Stevie Johnson. They now have Watkins, traded for Williams and drafted Robert woods last year.

I am worried that playing outside for the next two years in freezing temperatures will take a toll on him as he will be getting drilled by the Packers, Lions and Bears.

It doesn't matter how high he was drafted since it was stupid to draft an RB that early anyway.

TheSoundofThrowingPennies Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I don't understand the Bridgewater pick at all. His arm is not strong enough to play in the NFC North, especially since the Vikings are at TCF the next two seasons. Why wouldn't you look around the rest of the division and take a cue from them and get a big time arm QB like Derek Carr? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CS85 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The relationship with the NFL and pot will never end. Players prefer it to alcohol since it doesn't give them a hangover and it helps to relieve the pain/stress. Plus a lot of them smoked because they enjoyed the out of it like a lot of, ya know, regular-ass humans. Suspending a guy 16 games for it is braindead. Kneejerk crap to send a message which will fall deafly upon all ears. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.
