Charles Davis, NFL Network
Hi everyone! Back in LA getting ready for this evening's Path to the Draft...I know all of you are ready to go, so.... -
Alex, Canada
5:06 PM ET
Hey Charles, the Browns have definetly been the most active this off-season. I thought they'd go DB at 7 but with the loss of Wimbley I have a feeling they might take McClain out of Alabama, what do you think?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Alex, DB is still a good option for the Browns, but Rolando McClain is terrific player and pro style ready -
phil, montana
5:07 PM ET
Who should Seattle take with there 2 first round picks?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Phil, I would say OT for sure, and they will take a hard look at a QB...Jimmy Clausen likely to be the one still available at either 6 or 14 -
Drew, PLEASE ANSWER, VA
5:08 PM ET
So Charles, the Rams picked up AJ Feely out of nowhere. He comes from the Eagles old offensive system where the Rams now offensive coordinator used to be. So, Aj Feely knows the system. Did they pick him up so a veteran will be able to teach the offensive system to a rookie......say, Sam Bradford??!!
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Drew, Nice thought. They picked him up for the reasons you stated, and they have not truly decided to take Bradford or not. If not, AJ Feely gives them better competition at the QB position -
Greg, Florida
5:10 PM ET
What up Chuck D?! UF's pro day is coming up and all the hype is about Tebow. But how much could this help/hurt Brandon Spikes? Any chance he falls out of the first round?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Greg, There's a chance he could slip if people don't like his running numbers. But, if they just watch him play...he makes plenty of plays in the run and pass game. I throw out my stopwatch with guys like Brandon Spikes. He's a 4-3 Mike LB thumper! -
Derick, Marquette, Michigan
5:11 PM ET
Charles, who is the best offensive tackle avail. in next months draft and will he be avail for the 49ers when they go on the clock at 13/17?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Derick, So many opinions on this topic. I have been debating this question for awhile, and as of today, like Trent Williams from OU as my top LT with Bryan Bulauga from Iowa as my best technician. No matter who is truly the top OT, he will not be there for SF, but there will be plenty of options...Campbell from Maryland may still be there, DuCasse from UMass, and so many others will be in the mix if SF really wants an OT in that slot -
michael, washington DC
5:14 PM ET
who do thing the redskins will get with the 4 overall pick?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Michael, Washington will evaluate the QB remaining (likely Clausen), but OT is the way that I would go -
Matt, Buffalo
5:15 PM ET
The Bills need serious help to become a contender by any standards..... Do you see them making any big trades to get a win now mentality or are Bills fans stuck in another 15 year "rebuilding" phase?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Matt, The big trade can only happen if you have something big to trade...the number one pick for the Bills to bring in players? Possible, but not likely. -
Jimmy, Canada
5:17 PM ET
Eagles released Westbrook too early for me. Do they draft a RB at 24th ?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Jimmy, Not sure I see that since McCoy and Weaver are still in the fold. Philly may be looking at the LB and DB spots first -
Jesse Bates, West Plains, Mo
5:18 PM ET
Charles, with one of the biggest problems being MLB for the Kansas City Chiefs, Do you think they could bring in Kirk Morrison and/or Andra Davis? They need some run D desperately!
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Jesse, The Chiefs are always looking for veteran help as they try to develop rookies. Either LB would be a candidate -
Tim, Orlando
5:19 PM ET
Charles, there is alot of talk about the amazing athletic display Bruce Campbell put on at the combine. Do you think that he would be viewed as a higher OT pick or more as a OT to TE conversion project.
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Tim, At 317 pounds, Bruce Campbell's TE days are over, except as a 3rd TE in heavy run sets. He's a OT only now! Amazing combine! -
chaz, compton
5:21 PM ET
hey charles, with the 3-4 defense being as popular as it is and the hybrid end/outside linebacker being high on so many teams board has the hand in the dirt defensive end become a after thought
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Chaz, The true DE is not an afterthought. Think Dwight Freeney's an afterthought? No, but you are correct about 3-4 teams, and how they seek the hybrid guys...makes sense with that style of defense. But, pure pass rushing DE's will never go out of vogue as many 3-4 teams get into 4 man front on passing downs. -
Keith, Boston, MA
5:22 PM ET
Charles, With the Pats having no TE's on the roster. IN your mind, who might they be looking at in the draft to help with this position?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Keith, The top TE's are Jermaine Gresham from OU, and Rob Gronkowski from Arizona. Others that I like as options are Dennis Pitta from BYU, Tony Moeaki from Iowa, and Dorin Dickerson from Pitt (needs to add some size) -
Albert, Houston
5:25 PM ET
Hey Charles what do you think about sean weatherspoon and could the eagles take him at 24?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Albert, Love him, especially at the size he is now (got his fluidity back), and the Eagles could take him at 24 as either a MLB or OLB -
Brandon, Kansas City
5:26 PM ET
Should KC draft Eric Berry if he falls to #5??
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Brandon, I love Eric Berry, and the Chiefs need secondary help. But, I would draft an OT at 5 -
Mike , Canada
5:27 PM ET
Hey Charles, do you think Dallas will get rid of Roy Williams and go WR in the 1st round ?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Mike, Can't see the Cowboys cutting Roy Williams, and more likely to draft a saftey or OL in first round -
michael, nashville
5:27 PM ET
I think the dolphins go LB or Safety at 12..what do you think?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Michael, I like your thought process...keep an eye on a DL, too -
alex, ny
5:28 PM ET
after the pickups of l.t and cro what direction do you see them leaning towards in the draft ?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Alex, WR,or rush DE are a couple of possibilities for the Jets at this time -
Johnnie Bacon, Paris,ky
5:29 PM ET
Hey Charles , With Matt Millen out of Detroit we know they will not take Dez bryant thank god . What would you do with that pick if you where Lions .
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Johnnie, I would go either DT or OT to help the young QB. I would lean towards the DT first (either Suh or McCoy) -
Paul , California
5:31 PM ET
Do you think Jahvid Best or Ryan Methews would better fit the SD offense?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Paul, I like Jahvid Best in the Chargers offensive scheme, but either player fits. -
Kendall, IL
5:32 PM ET
Which quarterback do you think will make an immediate impact in their rookie seasons?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Kendall, Rookie QB's are not likely to make an impact, Ryan/Flacco/Stafford/Sanchez have skewed things, though. I like Bradford as my top QB, but Clausen comes "ready to play pro style" more than any of them. -
Anthony Costa, Pittsburgh, PA
5:34 PM ET
Do you think the steelers will break their philosophy of drafting best player on board, and instead take a cornerback or offensive lineman areas in which we are in dire need of help?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Anthony, One of the reasons Pittsburgh has been so great is that they have a plan, and philosophy and they stick to it. Don't expect that to change -
Jordan, Austin, TX
5:35 PM ET
Everyone has the Lions picking a DT?!?! Come on! Pick Okung at #2, then take the best RB available in the 2nd (Best, Matthews, Dwyer), then pick a field stretcher (Jacoby Ford) in the 3rd and give this offense a makover!
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Jordan, There is plenty of thought being given to the Lions following your plan...not sure about Jacoby Ford as an answer at WR, though. I see him better as a KR -
Sebastian, Berlin,Germany
5:37 PM ET
Should the Raiders trade down in the 1st Round to get more picks?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Sebastian, If the Raiders could get someone to work with them, I like the plan...they need bodies to build with! -
Danny, Wisconsin
5:38 PM ET
Charles, can you tell me what do all bust have in common, what do they lack, that other guys have to succeed. Please!!!!
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Danny, If any of us truly knew the answer, then Busts wouldn't happen each year! We're still trying to figure it out! -
Cameron , Dallas
5:40 PM ET
What are your thoughts about Daryl Washington and Jerry Hughes and where they might end up? Thanks
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Cameron, Love both players, and see DW with a 3-4 team as an OLB, and JH with a team where he can primarily rush the passer. I like him more as a 4-3 DE, but others see him like Brian Orakpo -
nate, PA
5:41 PM ET
do you think the Bengals will get Owens and make him the third receiver?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Nate, I'm not sure TO wants to be a 3rd WR for anyone! :-) -
mason , buda TX
5:42 PM ET
Who is the best rb going into the draft?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Mason, I like CJ Spiller as the best back in the draft this year. Run/Catch/Return ability - explosive -
Dan Weber, Philadelphia, PA
5:44 PM ET
Do you see a DE in this class that could start across from Trent Cole?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Dan, I really like Derrick Morgan from Georgia Tech. If he lasts to Philly's pick...would be great for the Eagles! -
John, Denver
5:46 PM ET
Charles, do you think Dez Bryant will go in the top 15? Possibly to the Broncos at #11. Seems there's some questions with his background.
Charles Davis, NFL Network
John, Dez Bryant is a top 5 talent...he may be drafted lower, but ability is not a question! -
Curtis , Colorado
5:47 PM ET
Is Jimmy Clausen worth a top 10 pick?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Curtis, Talent wise, yes. But, teams have to decide if he is the guy they want leading their teams. He must satisfy GM's in that area. If he does, he's picked in the top 10 in my opinion -
Adam, Ocala, Fl
5:49 PM ET
Hey Charles, With the UF pro day coming up...Any talk about a team drafting Ryan Stamper? He was a captian and played solid all year.
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Adam, Ryan Stamper is well respected, but right now he's a late pick at best. But, if he gets in a camp, he will be tough to cut! A coach on the field! -
David West, SC
5:50 PM ET
Hey Charles, Do you think Eric Norwood would be a good fit in a phins jersey? 3rd rd pick?
Charles Davis, NFL Network
David, I like Eric Norwood's pass rush and play making ability...3rd round would be a nice pick up of Eric Norwood for someone -
Charles Davis, NFL Network
Thanks to each of you for your time, and usual excellent questions! You keep me working hard!
Take care, and we always appreciate your support of our shows...you are the best! Off to a Path to the Draft discussion meeting ...see you tonight on the show at 6:30 p.m. ET on NFL Network!
