2012 GML Unofficial Draft Thread

He was arrested just a few days ago.

 

Seriously??? Did not see this.

 

yeah, right after his pro day.

 

I am drunk bit

 

Will pick in the morning.

 

That's okay, make your pick anyway.

 

And stuff.

 

Pick now, we gotta draft committee the next pick.

 

Don't lie to me.

 

Would I ever?

 

Haven't seen a ton of Irvin, admittedly so no comment on his game, but I remember last year when I was interning as a coach at a local high school here and we had a WVU scout come in to the office before practice. He was going to be there for the entire practice to evaluate our right guard as a potential future Mountaineer. And the scout was this tall, gentleman who was very nice and had just got done evaluating a HS prospect at a rival school. I was sitting in the head coach's office with the rest of the staff and this scout and just talking football. The head coach asks the scout, "you guys are still running the 3-3-5 right?" And the scout answers "yes and we got the Irvin kid." When he mentioned Irvin, he made a huge smile. He goes "he can rush the passer and we're hoping to widen him out even more this year, out to the 9 [technique]. Very talented." That was the final question of the conversation and we left it at that, but it always stuck in my head. The scout lit up when he mentioned Irvin.

 

I can count to potato. Do you know what number potato is?

 

Oh just read it sounds like he was being a immature kid. Don't think it hurts him too much.

 

He is really RAW from what I can tell but he has the tools to be a very productive player. Alen that is pretty cool story thanks for sharing.

 

I'll have to watch him soon. I'm interested. No problem, there were many interesting stories when I was there. The OL coach I was learning from was an offensive lineman at UCF many years back and is close to the FSU coaching staff. We basically implemented FSU's zone protections when I was there. But the guy was hilarious. Helluva coach but didn't give a damn about many things. Ask him about the kick-slide executed by the freshman left tackle (who I was in charge of developing when I was there and that guy was talented. 6'3 or 6'4" with quick feet, 14 size shoes and had a 4.0 GPA. Guy was a sponge when it came to absorbing the info. Would come to me after every play, "coach, that better? What I do wrong this time?" )? He goes, "**** it, we won't be using that **** anyways." Ask him about the plays being ran? "Man, back when I was an offensive coordinator, all we did was run. Trap left, trap right. Counter left, counter right. Power left, Power right. That was our offense and hell, we didn't win many games, but **** we competed."

It was hilarious.

 

Todd, interesting pick of Josh Robinson. Went to UCF practices last summer and watched his game. Talented corner that's fluid and can mirror well, but got some crap from coaches about his work ethic. In his defense, it was hot as hell, but they ended up throwing him on special teams at the end of one practice as a consequence of his lazy habits. First kickoff, he commits a penalty. Offsides I think it was. Gets chewed out by O'Leary.

 

So just send it to me. I don't pick again until like #108 or so.

 

Streeter eh?

 

Hey he likes him, maybe he's most familiar with him. Sometimes you just gotta make your picks.

 

Just surprised to see him go this early.

 

I like Streeter. I think he has monster upside. Not sure where he'll go in the draft, but his size/athleticism is very enticing.

 

Not saying he is a bad player. I think he was taken early but I understand you go out and get your guy. That is what I did for my 2 picks.

 

it just means you're going to have to draft your wr soon

 

lol never.

 

/GML Bills last year'd

 

In breaking news Marion Barber has decided to retire, the Jets wish him well in his future endevours.
"I always wanted to join the CIA" Barber was quoted as saying when asked why the sudden retirement.

 

Not going to reach for a WR

 

ftfy

 

There's plenty of good ones left.

 

Yes I have my eye on a few.

 

Thanks Sking PMs are full.

 

Dear god Miracle Whip is ****ing awful. Who eats that ****?

 

I'm white and its ****ing delicious.

 

Anyway, on WRs, I kept waiting last year to draft one I liked at a spot I felt reasonable, but they all went way too early for my liking.
