Kalil NFL chat recap

NFL.com: Were you worried that you were going to slide with all of those reports out there?
Kalil: no, I had no idea I was sliding. No expectations. I could see myself living in Minnesota.

NFL.com: Do you have a preference between LT and RT?
Kalil: I played right tackle my first years at USC. I can play booth sides...getting comfortable

NFL.com: Good pass rushers in NFC North. Thoughts?
Kalil: facing those guys...the competitor I am, it will be fun...especially going against my old teammate Mark Barron

Comment From Roll Tide
ask Kalil if how he feels about working with AP, Ponder and Harvin
Kalil: AD (AP) is a great running back. He was a freshman at Oklahoma playing against my brother in the national championship game

NFL.com: What's the next step for you?
Kalil: gonna celebrate with family, the people that helped me get here. I'll fly out soon and do whatever the Vikings want me to do

Carolina picked Luke Kuechly at 9, and Stephen Gilmore sounds headed to Buffalo at 10.

 

[ashley12]

Happy enough with Claiborne...

Predictions on when the next QB gets picked now that Tannehill has gone at 8?

 

[superfreak]

I love Kuechly. Great pick by CAR, but pissed that he is going to be in our division for the next 10 years!

 

[Flawed Genius]

Looks ecstatic, does Gilmore.

 

[Broken]

Looks like the Dolphins went for a big reach.

I was reading this morning (Grantland) that someone compared Tannehill to Akili Smith in the fact that he was the 3rd best QB in a draft (behind Couch! and McNabb) that was screaming out for QBs and a team may choose him higher than he deserved to go for that reason.

 

[catters078]

Buffalos defensive upgrade this season is unparralleled

 

[Sven]

I wasn't expecting the Bills to take a CB, but you can understand the pick based on the division. Must be their BPA.

 

[aussiedude]

only shock so far has been the rams trading up again. who are they going for? a 2013 #1 overall?

 

[Flawed Genius]

Seahawks traded their pick to the Eagles.

For Seattle's No. 12, Eagles give up 2012 #15, 2012 #114, 2012 #172.

NFL.com: were you shocked the Cowboys took you?
MC: I was shocked the Cowboys they took me. They hadn't even talked to me!

NFL.com: What did it feel like?
MC: felt great.when I got the call, I thought someone was joking with me. everyone in my house hold is a Cowboys fan. I started crying!

Comment From Donalds Driver : Ask Claiborne how many times he'll pick off RGIII
MC: I'm gonna work my hardest to pick off everyone (including RGIII)

NFL.com: How much have yu watche the Cowboys this past season?
MC: I didn't get a chance to watch the Cowboys or anyone

NFL.com: What's next for you?
MC: haven't planned it all

NFL.com: You have to play man with the Cowboys. You're going to be alone on an island. Thoughts?
MC: I'm kinda used to be alone in coverage. I know it's a new level...continue to set my goals high

NFL.com: What's your 40 time?
MC: I ran a 4.39 on my pro day

NFL.com: Hardest thing for you to do as a corner?

Yeah sorry about that, rolling ticker at the bottom showed Philly keeping 15

 

[Hollow Knight]

Absolutely stoked with Claiborne.

You beauty.

About bloody time we fixed our secondary.

 

[mattys123]

Nice trade up by the Eagles, that big fella is damn fast for his size.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Nice trade up by the Eagles, that big fella is damn fast for his size.

Yeah, he can move.

Nice looooong hug with Goodell too.

 

[catters078]

Ingram sliding...

Could he fall into the J-E-T-S laps?

 

[Flawed Genius]

Floyd to Arizona.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Can someone shed some light on the dudes yelling out "What" during Goodell's annoucements? Are they a regular fixture?

 

[catters078]

I think that pick hurts the rams a bit.

they should go OT here (Reiff?) and go for randle or hill late in the 1st round..have enough picks for it
