NFL DRAFT APRIL 26-28 ,2013.. THE SOURCE'S VIEW.

NFL DRAFT. APRIL 26-28, 2013,, THE SOURCE'S VIEW...
  The draft is coming , that is the NFL DRAFT.. Well its clear,, Every team has needs and every team wants to make the upcoming year a great one.. Even the SUPER BOWL Champions Baltimore Ravens are going to be hard pressed to repeat , and help that defensive team get younger.. But all in all, we as fans are excited and we should be!! Its the spring thing , the Spring Fever.. Its one of the most favorite times of the year.. Why? The flowers are blooming , sunny bright skies and women and men are wearing less, and showing off their beautiful bodies and faces.. Its a time for a change!!
  Now.. for the next 26 days I will either make Team by team analysis or a Divisional analysis of all the teams. So you Oakland Raiders, Dallas Cowboys, Seattle Seahawks, Denver Broncos , Jacksonville Jaguars, Washington Redskins,, Houston Texans, to name a few , these are teams with family living there.. hehe..
 But my take is take the best player available,., regardless if its your need a what? I feel to many teams look for needs and fail to go for that player star player.. I mean who passes on randy moss, or LT , or what but teams have done it in the past. Thus being ridiculed and destined to jokes forever!!
 Now the San Diego Chargers are first on the block so to speak regarding what they need or who they need to draft.. OFFENSIVE TACKLE.. OFFENSIVE TACKLE, OFFENSIVE LINEMEN,. yes. this is not only a glaring need , but a necessity to keep Rivers alive or able to complete a contract. The past 3 years he has taken a beating and to be honest , probably shortened his career by years,. But whatever years he has left , 3 or 4 at the most,, The Chargers need to protect him.. He threw the most picks and fumbled the ball more times than any other quarterback , other than Glamour boy Mark Sanchez.. but Rivers is head over heels better than the SO CAL BOY,, or at least Charger fans hope so..??
 Now the Chargers have the 11th pick over all..
   The top picks at LT are ... Eric Fisher from Central Michigan..Lane Johnson from the BCS champions Oklahoma.. DJ. FLUKER FROM - ALABAMA.. any or all of these guys were be spectacular. The chargers need to rebuilkd that line is this draft and free agency or trades ., fr the Bolts to have any chance in the WILD WILD AFC WEST ..
   As for other needs ,,, I say lets give those high priced free agents signings another chance,, Meachem and Royal.. and Lets hope Mathews and Battle stay healthy and more consistent,, although I feel the Chargers need to draft a RB late in ghe draft.. my favorites.. Eddie Lacy Alabama.. Joe Randle Oklahoma St. Montee Ball Wisconsin.. I like these guys they are durable , smaller size and consistent runners.. but by the time the Chargers get around to drafting a RB,, I LIKE KERWYN WILLIAMS OF UTAH ST,, but any durable , good size and someone that will scare the hell out of ryan Mathews .. losing a starting job does wonders to your work ethic and whether or not you play hurt or not,., He needs a reminder,, NFL really does stand for NOT FOR LONG..
 The other needs ,, we need acorner,,  Jammer and Cason may be gone because of money issues and just inconsistent play.. Jammer I think age has finally caught up to a average player and moving him to safety sounds good in theory ,but playing in such open space for the first time in your career , maybe a chance the new coach doesn't want to take and I don't blame him,.. There are some talented corners in the draft,, My favorite,, jamar taylor from Boise st,,, or Logan Rogers from Rutgers.. or if they get lucky Desmond Trufant from Washington... but CB is a need regardless they keep those two players or not. Not everything needs to be addressed this year , but you must prepare for the future...
  The Tightend situation. I love Gates, but the career chronic foot issues seem to be catching up to him. He is still a threat , but he doest demand as much attention,, and with the chargers having true wide out issues,, someone has to emerge, for Gates to be effective,, Lets see what happens,. But I like his back up green.. Has talent and speed , he just need More tutoring and more muscle mass,, If he works it right he should learn a lot form future hall of famer gates,,
Special Teams we have very good kicker and punter and Spurlock has been the surprise when royal , faded. hopefully he can do it again, and either royal and or spurlock be that slot guy rivers will need while the newly formed offensive line gets better this year..
 The Chargers run defense was their strength,, but their secondary pass coverage is what burned them last year.. Plus the chargers having trouble running the ball and controlling the clock.. The bolts struggles in close tight games.. THE CHARGERS have talented and potential players, but this is the NFL.. you need to show it.. Its not a paper league or what have u done in college,, Its what can you do, and can you do it week in and week out,,, This will make and break the defense is the development and health of this young group..
  The same goes for Defensive line, they played well when healthy , but battled too many down times.. The new coach and strength conditioning program will alleviate what has plagued the chargers during the Nervous Norv era.. Who knows this new program may restore gates lost strength and power, time will tell for this defense and the rest of the team..
 Last by nit least,, Rivers,, a one time Pro bowl selection and star player,, He has fallen on tough times, mainly because he has a horrible offensive line and average wide outs, The loss of Vincent Jackson , may haunt the Chargers and rivers forever. I like Alexander , but his has chronic knee issue that were not seen last year , a fluke? The Vincent brown home Town boy is my secret weapon and lets hope the season of rest and rehab , will get him faster and stronger than ever,, and the high priced free agents,, Meachem and Royal.. lets hope they can earn that big pay, if not those poor picks and high pay will haunt the chargers for years unless the young players step up! I think they will..
 Lastly, the NFL DRAFT is a fun time because we all are rooting for our teams, Every team starts from the beginning and we all hope and dream that "THIS IS THE YEAR!" that's what makes watching and following football so special.. Its this time of the year when you break out the drinks and chips and wear your favorite jersey and root for your team.. Lets hope all the NFL teams get what they want or need and lets enjoy draft day and preseason football ,, just around the corner..
But most of all enjoy spending time with family and friends that have their favorite teams.
I'm rooting for the SAN DIEGO CHARGERS, OAKLAND RAIDERS, SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS, JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS, WASHING REDSKINS, HOUSTON TEXANS AND ARIZONA CARDINALS , GREEN BAY PACKERS,, because I have family and friends rooting for these teams,, and besides,, WATCHING FOOTBALL IS SO FUN,, especially with family screaming at the top of their lungs. while others look at us and say what a bunch a fools,.. yes.. we are,, WE ARE FANS FOR LIFE AND WE LOVE OUR NFL FOOTBALL!! THE NFL DRAFT IS COMING ... ARE  YOU READY!?!?!?
