JFF went to the Browns!!! LOL!!!

[Roughneck93]

First time since 1937....:ack!:

[Saggy Aggie]

Browns got a good squad? One of the best landing spots for him IMO....

Good d, good o line, one of the best receivers in the game, Ben Tate at RB, Jordan Cameron at TE...

I don't follow your point, I guess....

But back to the point, I figured at least jeffcoat would get drafted.... Character issues? :)

[sinfan75]

How many were drafted in the first round? Wait.... Nvm... How many were drafted at all? Wait... Nvm...Feels good to out do the Horns every 10-15 years don't it! LOL Enjoy it while you can.

I read that Josh Gordan failed another drug test.

Facing season-long suspension.

No bueno....

[Scoop27]

Just because they didn't have any players drafted doesn't mean some may still sign with teams.

[Saggy Aggie]

Silver lining huh scoop?

[Saggy Aggie]

I read that Josh Gordan failed another drug test.

No bueno....

I doubt the league wants to do that, but we'll see. Either way, one year won't make or break his career

[Roughneck93]

No, not saying that at all.

Just when you think the Browns are doing right, things like this pop up.

Also, newly signed WR Nate Burleson broke his arm again (he'll be ready for camp though).

[Scoop27]

Mike Davis signs with the Oakland Raiders

[Scoop27]

Jackson Jeffcoat signs with the Seahawks and Donald Hawkins with the Eagles

Mack Brown ‏@UT_MackBrown May 8
Best wishes to all the guys being drafted over the next few days. Especially the Longhorn's. It's the start of another life's dream!

:mad:

[Additup]

UT claiming Gilbert as a draft pick?

[Saggy Aggie]

Haha that's what I was thinking... Longhorns can take credit for developing him into a pro player LOL

[Weebe]

In case you are keeping score at home:

Gays drafted: 1

Longhorns drafted: 0

[YTBulldogs]

Clev signed VY for Manziel to learn from (on and off field) if that matters?:doh:

[Celina8]

I have been a Longhorn fan all my life and this just shows how far the program has actually dropped in the past few years and shows to me that changes were needed really 2 or 3 years ago. Texas will still struggle as the talent level is still very weak from the LB's , QB, and OL in my opinion. Hopefully Charlie can get attitudes changed down in Austin and get the team hungry again. Time will tell. For those that are not as old as I am. Keep in mind I can remember when Alabama, LSU, Ohio State, Florida State, and many other great programs actually were not so great.

[Phil C]

I think several teams are going to kick themselves for not drafting some of the UT players especially Jeffcoat. Seattle just got better on the DL.

[Phil C]

How many were drafted in the first round? Wait.... Nvm... How many were drafted at all? Wait... Nvm...

Coach Strong had three drafted in the first round and they were all players that he recruited and developed. And this was at Louisville. Things will change.

[cougartino]

In case you are keeping score at home:

Gays drafted: 1

Longhorns drafted: 0

Gotta feeling that top number is probably greater.

[hookandladder]

What's even more crazy is atm had 3 guys drafted in the first round and the best they could do was finish middle of the pack in their conference the last two years. Hey but at least they can say they had a Hesiman winner who did not even attend class on campus, a true student -athlete. Whoop

Quit letting Rivals.com determine who you'll recruit so alumni can brag in February.

3.92
Average 2010 star ranking by Rivals for the Longhorns, tied with Florida and behind only USC's 4.20.

3
Overall class ranking by the Longhorns, behind the Gators, who have commits from two more five-star recruits (four total).

4
Members of the class who are the top-ranked players in the country at their position by Rivals -- Hicks, Jeffcoat, Hopkins, and Espinosa.

According to recruiting site Rivals.com, Texas’ 2009 recruiting class ranked No. 5 in the nation, while their 2010 class was even better, earning a No. 3 national ranking. Between those two classes, Texas signed a total of 45 recruits, 30 of which were labeled four-star prospects and another five that were tabbed with the coveted five-star designation.

Hmmm very interesting indeed

[hookandladder]

Guess this went right over your head, simple terms. Manziel one of the best QB's in college football and all atm could do is what 5th and 6th in their conference and who really cares what conference, it's about winning championships. You do know what that is, right.

[msu97]

17 from the Big 12... 6 from Baylor... who led ALL Texas schools in players drafted...

Aggies beat the Horns but they all lost to Baylor...

[Saggy Aggie]

Eh.... 3 first round picks, 2 in the top 10.... I wouldn't call that 'losing'

[msu97]

Eh.... 3 first round picks, 2 in the top 10.... I wouldn't call that 'losing'

no, but your post is to make fun of the Horns... which I get... but lets not forget who had the most, Baylor, and the job that Briles has done there...

Mack had no players that he recruited drafted...

still remember watching Evans at G Ball... man was he a sight... again another former standout basketball player changes to football and look what happens... more kids need to follow that example

[caleb_mccaig]

17 from the Big 12... 6 from Baylor... who led ALL Texas schools in players drafted...

I don't think Baylor had anyone drafted in the first three rounds. Regardless, it was good to see a couple of guys I played 7 on 7 against and had a couple of classes with at Baylor get picked up, especially by the Cowboys.

I think I saw that once again LSU had the most players drafted, 9. They had 9 drafted last year, but I'm not sure if that was the most.

According to the pros, he was 22nd in value, plus don't you remember telling us we had no defense? To which we agreed. Except that you toned down when UT caved. You are still bitter. :)

I will watch Cleveland Browns play. It was good to see their fans cheering like crazy after they picked JF. Especially after their 1st pick when they passed on JF, when you could hear fans in the background yelling "Cleveland Sux". I believe they were Cleveland fans disgruntled with the first pick.

So with Manziel and two other first round picks , the aggies finsihed middle of the pack in the sec. So now that Manziel is gone, where do you see your aggies finishing next year in the sec. I am assuming with the last two high ranking recruiting classes you are looking to win a conference championship, is that the aggies No. goal and do you honestly feel that is possible.

None of those first rounders played defense did they?

There is not one athlete alive nor one football program anywhere in the country that their No. 1 goal is not to be a champion. Is it possible? Anything is possible. You create one defensive stop per game in three of the four loses in 13' and they are tied at the end of regulation. You make two stops they are 12-1.

For sure, no one thought Auburn was going to be anywhere near as good as they were last year, including me after watching LSU beat the crap out of them. A&M may lose a couple of more games next year but so may Bama and LSU. They're stacked with talent but none of the three schools know who they're starting QB is going to be yet.

I think there are almost as many questions about A&M as there are about UT. I think the Aggies will gel next year if we can stay out of jail and keep our recruits in line. This year will be interesting. I expect a similar finish in the SEC as the last 2 years.

McCarron puts the throw on the money, instead of inside, 'Bama beats them two years in a row, or if Bama does not jump offsides, and JFF prolly does not win the Heisman... bottom line, none of that happened and the rest is history...

we have no idea how any of these guys will do since none have played one solid down in the NFL...

I will go back to when people thought Leaf was as good as Peyton... two years ago people stated that the Seahawks got an F in the draft and Pete Carroll would be out of the league by now... College means nothing now

So your saying the expectations at aggieland drop back down that much after Manziel leaves, after VY left Texas I do not think Texas had any thoughts of dropping out of contention for a NC. I am not saying your No. 1 goal would be a NC but it should be 1A, I would think Sumlin has goals of winning a NC each and every year. I am betting the Bamas,LSU and FSU feel they are capable of winning every year, not saying they will but anything is possible if it all comes together. You can bet Baylor and OU are setting their sights on a NC , again not saying it will happen but that has to be the ultimate goal with what they have coming back next year. Give Texas a couple years and their goal will back at making a run at one, guess it just depends what your expectations are .

Two plays. Pretty much sums up Auburn's season.

You are putting words in other Aggie Fans mouths. I speak for myself and am realistic. For me, a realistic goal is to keep building the program, and especially our defense. Sure I want to win the conference, but not sure if you know yet, but we are in the SEC and McCarron has the prettiest girlfriend. (He should've been picked higher just for her IMO.) :)

[Snotbubbles]

if you know yet, but we are in the SEC

Yeah, so what. If they played one another, that would be a tough conference. But, they don't.

Pretty sure I know ATM is in the sec, also pretty Mizzouri is in that conference and within two years played in the championship game with the basically the same players they had in the Big 12. So your point is what.

[Scoop27]

Anthony Fera has signed with the Miami Dolphins

Can you try again but this time using English?

[Weebe]

Lots of deflection by t shirt fans here.

Anyone who thinks that Baylor's one 5th, two 6th's and two 7th's is better than three 1st rounders has zero credibility when it comes to football.

[hookandladder]

LSU had 9 picks... does it matter where they went?

Weebe, you are the definition of no credibility...

[msu97]

according to Weebe... all picks past the 1st round do not count... unless of course, they were aggies...

knowing that the draft and teams are built on 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th rounders...

dang, Tom Brady does not count...

Marques Colston does not count...

2/3 of the league does not count...

dang, had no idea the majority of 'Merica did not count...

I mean, Henry Josey signed as a free agent with the Iggles... guess i should tell him he does not count? what about Shaun Lewis? or AJ Highsmith? they do not count either...

We'll have decent offensive production this year, I'm not expecting JF type heroics. I'm hoping the defense gets shored up with our recruits, especially the line.

That is far you young guys to get your panies in a wad over, Strong will be fine and he tells like it is right now but they will all hopefully change.

why not big numbers? Sumlin's offense has always produced qb's with great #'s... Case Keenum ring a bell?, he received Heisman votes while at UH... Sumlin's offense will always score points... Case Keenum put up JFF #'s before there was JFF... that is the fact that Aggies miss... Aggies have become as bad or worse than so-called UT tshirt fans... but at least UT had won a BCS bowl and a National Championship, and played in another so I at least understood their arrogance... Aggies, not so much

Statistically speaking, a first round pick is 8 times as likely to make it past his rookie contract with a team than a fifth, sixth or seventh round pick.

It's convenient that you cherry pick the late round guys that have been successful. Anyone can find outliers.

Out of the last 5 Hall of Fame classes, there have been 16 first former first rounders inducted. There have been two players combined that have been inducted that were chosen in the 5th, 6th and 7th rounds.

[Snotbubbles]

Hey but I still like to act young, who wants to get old. It's 50 something.

I hear ya Hooker. Just when you said, " I'm a man, I'm 50 something" that Gundy's press conference popped in my head right away. It's all good. And yes, getting old sucks. Ask Saggy why she uses that name? It's nature SA.:wave: Either age caused or big boned. Leave scoop alone.:tisk:

Only 29 and 20 vs ATM. Not as bad a you would think The last three years has been LSU. Before that from 91 thru 96 its was all Aggies. '86 thru '96 Ags were 6 games to 4 on the Tigers.

Curious thing, from 1922 to 1986(which I played in), except for bowl games,(2 - 1944 and 1955) all LSU vs A&M games were played in Baton Rouge (27 Games) of which A&M won 6.

I am thinking A&M is making up for 64 years.

[Saggy Aggie]

Now you picking on Scoop, you need to get out more and get out away from the keyboard. How bout them aggies for next year, what your prediction on how many wins for them ags.
