drag their asses!

Glad to see Auburn getting two in the first round. I think we'll get two or three next round, right?

The Panthers liked Clemson LB Isaiah Simmons a lot at No. 7 and he was the best pure athlete on the board, but they felt he was a better fit for a veteran team because of his ability to play so many positions. So they went with Auburn DT Derrick Brown,...

Panthers logic

Haha nice save, I was actually coming to eat my crow on that this morning. I'm not wrong often but will admit when I am. This is a case I'm happy to be wrong, really happy for Noah and his family.

Hopefully Marlon won't have to wait too much longer either.

So Auburn has TWO 1st round picks in the NFL draft - and neither of those picks are from the offense





Thought our coach was an offensive guru? (Sarcasm)

What’s Igbo’s press coverage skills like? From what I remember Miami likes to play press coverage. Lot of man too.

Noah was unquestionably a lock down corner, physical and very good in press coverage. Also not afraid to get his nose in there and lay the wood.

Like a lot of corners, part of the reason for the lack of eye-popping stats is teams avoiding throwing his way.

Reading the scouting report they love his physicality at the line, great recovery speed

Also said he has a natural instinct to be aggressive at breaking up the pass when the ball comes (understatement of the century )

Sounds like a perfect fit for both.

Was he expected to go first round?

Iggy was mostly projected 2nd rounder. Really happy for him.

Hope to see Marlon go today.

Any chance Prince gets into the 3rd?

I see Marlon 2nd Prince 3rd.

Javaris Davis, Driscoll, Coe, and Daniel Thomas are all wildcards to me. I could see all of them going from Round 4 to Undrafted. Davis is probably the best of those 3 I just wonder if his height scares people. Driscoll could make a really solid backup IMO. Coe needs to go to a good coach who will be patient with him. Thomas I think will be a steal. I see him becoming one of those guys who is unheralded but is a constant contributor, similar to what he was at Auburn.

I saw a few mocks that had Marlon in the first so hopefully he can definitely be a solid 2nd rounder.

I see him similar to Neiko, look up in 10 years and wonder how he is still in the league.

Will Herring was another guy like that for me.

With all of these really good WRs in this class, i guess teams felt they needed to get good CBs at early as possible. Iggy will kill it in Miami. If Tua can stay healthy, that team could be special.

If Miami invests in their OL I could see that being a solid team. Don’t really know much about their HC though I believe he is defense oriented. I’d be worried if I was Miami that Bama’s good OL couldn’t protect Tua from injury.

With how aggressive teams were going after OT’s last night, I’d be surprised if Tega doesn’t go tonight in the 2nd.

I follow the Titans and they picked the 12th ranked OT and 92nd ranked overall player last night
