PrintThe 2011 NFL Draft is upon us. One of the more exciting sports days of the year brings hope to fans that the players they select this year will lead them to a Super Bowl. A few teams tonight will likely call on two former Colorado Buffaloes to aid them in their championship pursuit. CB Jimmy Smith and OT Nate Solder are both projected to be picked in the first round round.
The current buzz right now is both Jimmy and Nate can go as high as #13 or potentially fall out of the first round.
For Jimmy Smith, the teams that seem to have the most interest according to the experts are the Detroit Lions at #13, the Philadelphia Eagles at #23 and the Baltimore Ravens at #26. The Oakland Raiders are also rumored to be looking at move into the first round to select Smith if available.
For Nate Solder, the teams that seem to have the most interest according to the experts are the Detroit Lions at #13, the Indianapolis Colts at #22, the New York Giants at #19, the Kansas City Chiefs at #21 and the Chicago Bears at #29.
Where do you think they will end up?

What to think about Von to the Broncos?
I don’t like it…

Some big reaches so far....
But, that is all according to the pundit who make the mock drafts….who knows. I’m not a Donkos fan by any measure but I think that Von Miler was a pretty good pick.
I don't like you Browns
But holy crap was that a wonderful trade for you guys

Yeah, I'm liking it too
The Browns need A LOT of help so it makes sense. Amazing what happens when you have legit NFL guys making the choices – only took us 12 years.
Agreed
Glad we dont have to deal with both Green and Jones with our weak corners too

"how bout this play by jimmy smith" (the TD against NU's fake kick)
I coulda scored a TD on the play! Not exactly a clip that shows his skills
Still love that replay... Anything that makes NE look stupid is good
You of all people should agree with this.
DAMN!
I’m happy for Jimmy – though he should have gone sooner – but I’m not looking forward to going against him in the AFC North twice a year
by the way
I like all the new Pac-12 links on left
A. It looks cool
B. Makes it really handy to visit them (since the Pac-12 has a lot of good sbnation sites)
Thanks
The Cal site designed that. Really grateful that they did because I like it too.
