The LR Official NFL Draft Thread!

Congrats nick. Bargain in the 6th IMO.

I thought after the Champs Bowl Josue would be our best lineman his senior season but he has trouble with athletic tackles and stunts/blitz pickup. He's gotta get smarter.

NFL.com has a grade of 5.4 for Matias. San Fran just drafted a 295 pound guard with a grade of 4.7. I still don't get it.

 

[FSUSarah]

Is he our last player?

 

[DFSNOLE]

He and Hart. Bobby's draft status was iffy at best.

He and Bobby "Miles and miles of" Hart

The grades are based on round so a higher number is a later predicted pick

No. Jameis grade was 6.7. The higher the better.

 

[YoungNole]

So Chickillo's fat, steroid-havin, done-nothing-against FSU or Bobby Hart's ass gets drafted but our two offensive linemen are still waiting. Impressive.

 

[DFSNOLE]

So, are Josue and Bobby hoping to not get drafted now so they can choose a team to try out for?

 

[FSUSarah]

And there it is!! Most players drafted in a 3 year period!

Go Noles!

 

[DFSNOLE]

Hart going before Matias. Would've lost money on that bet.

 

[YoungNole]

And with our last pick the Bucs choose a nobody running back.

Two receivers and a running back out of the draft whom will probably do little when our defensive line entire defense and offensive line could have used more talent.....

Oh well, Jameis.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Drafted him to play FB to protect Jameis.

I saw Matias projected as his as the third round in several mocks. What in the world is happening with him?

I am absolutely dumbfounded on Matias, was his urine test mud and his Wonderlic a -3? I saw several mock drafts, by some pretty decent experts who had in anywhere from 3-5th. Walter football had him going 68th to the Raiders. CBS had him as the 158th rated player and 9th rated OG.

ESPN did have him rated as the 258th ranked player.

F*cking Oakland ended up grabbing a couple of Gators, must be their checks and balances........

 

[FSUSarah]

So here's the skinny on Josue.

*Please don't link to a competing site. Thanks.

Per Twitter
Florida State's Josue Matias failed multiple NFL team physicals due to shoulder
This per a source with knowledge of the situation. Matias will be pursued as an undrafted free agent. He was thought of as a mid-round talent.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Josue tweeted that he's signed a FA contract with Tennessee.

Speaking of Tennessee, the Volunteers had no players selected in the draft this weekend. But according to #VolsTwitter they are going to win the SEC this year....

Well, they do have all their players back.

I'd heard this was the first draft in like 40 years no Vol was taken.

 

[Lemon Thrower]

I wanted Rashad here in the 4th... but a LB is a need.

could you imaged Rashad Greene and Jameis on the same pro team? wow

 

[Naught-Nole-Buc]

could you imaged Rashad Greene and Jameis on the same pro team? wow

I had pretty awesome visions of JW lining up under center with Evans and VJax out wide and Rashad in the slot... wow!

Oh well.
