I gotta ask. Didn't any of you listen to Gettleman over the last 4 months? He said he wasn't going to reach. We addressed all our needs in Free Agency. While they may not be the most popular FA they gave Gettleman the opportunity to take the best football player available. It amazes me that when the pick comes in you all still bitch like babies cause you didn't get who you think we should have drafted. Gettleman has a great track record in the draft so to be honest. I would take his opinion over all this whining. Though players don't have a say in who we draft, when TD says this guy is better than he was when he came into the league tells me we have a solid player. Plus the guy could fill an emergency role at running back if we had a slew of injuries at RB.

By the time we pick this looks awful good. lol

He didn't get any gigs before and that is a mystery as to why but, the Carolina Panthers have him and will be foolish to ever let him go. He is going to build us a super bowl winning team. He is worth every penny and more. Thank God he wears the Panther colors.

One thing I like about this is that the writers that cover these teams make the choice. While some of them may be lousy and not have a clue about their respective team. I think most do. I haven't be sold on Devon Smith but I will be ok with it.

32, New England Patriots Eddie Goldman DT Fla St.

31. New Orleans Saints Malcom Brown DL Texas

30. Green Bay Packers Jalen Collins CB LSU

29. Indianapolis Colts La'el Collins OT LSU

28. Denver Broncos Shane Ray OLB Missouri

27. Dallas Cowboys Eric Kendricks UCLA LB

Baltimore Ravens Marcus Peters CB Washington

Announcers love this pick.

Carolina Panthers Devon Smith WR Ohio State.

24. Arizona Cardinals Randy Gregory DE Nebraska OK here we go... Let's see what David Newton says

23. Detroit Lions Todd Gurley RB Georgia

22. Pittsburgh Steelers Byron Jones CB Connecticut

21. Cincinnati Bengals Nelson Agholor WR USC

19. Cleveland Browns Cam Erving C Florida State....announcers think this is a bad pick. 20. Philadelphia Eagles Beshad Perriman WR UCF

17. San Diego Chargers Melvin Gordon RB Wisconsin (with Gurley on the board) 18. Kansas City Chiefs Kevin Johnson CB Wake Forest

I spent 25 years in the Navy and trust me. Plenty of those men and women that fight wars were still immature and need growing up. Because you join the military it doesn't mean you are grown up.

15 SF Armstead DE Oregon 16 Houston Landon Collins Safety Alabama

You speak as if you know this for a fact? My guess is not which means you are guessing, opinionated nothing more. Word on the street? You have an inside track to other teams meetings. I seriously doubt it. While I agree the chances we pass on him are high and before I saw the piece on NFL Network I was certain we wouldn't. My point on the OP was I believe he is truly trying to change his image and start anew and we should do our due diligence to check him out. Most people are so hell bent on labeling a KID trouble because he made some juvenile mistakes. When he thrives with another team and becomes a star.... don't worry I won't say I told you so. YOU'LL KNOW IT.

Domestic Violence is in no means acceptable. It could be a one time thing or it could worse. Because he did it once doesn't mean he will do it again. I have know the most docile person be pushed into violence. Does that make him or a serial woman beater. I know this persons hasn't laid a hand on anyone since. You don't know, neither do it. What I do know is he has been drama free for over a year. He has had counseling and is trying to start a new life. My point is, sit down, speak with the guy, speak with the coach at OU and do you homework like you did Cam and make a determination then. Don't label a 19 to 20 year old young man because he did something stupid over a year ago.

The guy has kept clean for over a year now. Doesn't that mean anything. Sophomore in College is what 19-20 years old? He seems remorseful and has had counseling What more can you expect? Once again I think we are going to pass but I also believe we are going to regret it too. He is going to be a star and we could pass on a player that could mean the difference in the Super Bowl and just another team not quite good enough to win it all. I think, and hopefully we have, done more research into what he has done since he went to Oklahoma.

I was not on the DGB bandwagon until I saw the piece on NFL network. The guy seems genuinely ready to move onto the next step in his life. You can give a 1000 reasons why you don't want him but to imply he isn't a first round talent is ignorant. The guy is 6'6" and can run and catch. While I agree DG and JR have pretty much said they didn't want the headaches. I think if he is available they at least have to consider him. It could mean the difference between a ring and another disappointing loss in the playoffs.
