NFL LIVE - 2nd round steal

[elandre]

The guys at NFL live asked Kiper who he couldn't believe wasn't drafted in the 1st round. Guess what he said MERLING!
Whooo Kiper showing some love !

Ya, he was projected to go mid 1st from everything i saw.

Yeah, but Kiper thinks Henne's overrated, so it's a push.

 

[chewski]

most mocks had merling going as early as 15th and as late as 26 to jacksonville

Well technically Merling was a 1st round pick. One less team picking in Rd 1 this year makes the first pick of Rd 2 a ROUND 1 pick!

Kiper is a wise man.

Makes up for his stupid 'you dont draft competition at QB' stance.

He was selected 3rd in Rd 2.

no...we had the 1st pick in the 2nd round. pick #32 overall in the NFL draft. which in any normal year would be the last pick of the 1st round, but because the Patriots lost a pick, this year it was considered the 1st pick in the 2nd round.

you thinking of Kendall Langford...in round three...he was selected 3rd in round 3,after we traded down from 1st pick in the third,to 3rd pick in the third,and pick up a 6th rounder.....gunn34 just got mixed up and confused

 

[MikeO]

He was selected 3rd in Rd 2.

No he wasn't!!!!!!!

 

[phinMikeDC]

Officially it was round 2 - quit it with the technicalities. Merling still went later than expected.

 

[X-Pacolypse]

I think most people on FinHeaven know how much of a steal Merling was. I don't need to hear that from Kiper.

He's as good as any DE in the draft, trust me.
