Live Blog: NFL Draft Day chat with sportswriter Jeff Gordon

Live chat throughout the first round of the NFL draft with St. Louis Post-Dispatch sportswriter Jeff Gordon.

3rd & 7 37yd

The scouting combine has more of that vibe. Players treated like pieces of meat.

RT @darrenrovell: Clothing star of the draft is Cordarrelle Patterson who is wearing a white tuxedo jacket and bowtie.

Any updates on Saffold?Could we package him w/one 1st round pick to get a bunch of picks?

by Ray 4/25/2013 11:51:25 PM
Haven't heard much chatter about Saffold getting moved.

by Jeff Gordon 4/25/2013 11:52:49 PM
Should I monitor the NFL Network or ESPN? I'll probably do both, and my sense is that pre-announcing picks will soon carry a league penalty. The NFL has consistently done everything they can to maximize the drama and potential of their revenue streams.

Fan of the NFL Network. Berman-free zone.

What are the chances that Sheldon Richardson falls to 16?

by STLMeredith 4/25/2013 11:53:10 PM
He could be there. Not sure the Rams would go there, though, with their needs at safety and OLB.

by Jeff Gordon 4/25/2013 11:53:26 PM
Very deep draft no need to move up rather move down and pick up more draft picks....

From the Onion News Network:
NEW YORK—After several minutes of intense negotiations, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid agreed to trade the team’s No. 1 overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft for a bite of a bacon double cheeseburger, repeatedly insisting that the offer was too juicy and dripping with melted cheddar to refuse. “Sure, Texas A&M left tackle Luke Joeckel might provide excellent quarterback protection for the next 10 years, but this bacon double cheeseburger is just massive and loaded with succulent charbroiled beef patties,” said Reid, who was also impressed by the sandwich’s four strips of crispy bacon. “Sure, there’s a risk that this bacon double cheeseburger might not be as good as it looks. But I’ve watched and carefully studied this sandwich, and I believe it’s the real deal. No matter what, I always trust my gut.” At press time, the Chiefs general manager and scouts were shocked and horrified after watching Reid consume the entire bacon double cheeseburger in a single bite.

Long live the Onion, ha ha.

Hahahha...He could have gotten fires thrown in the deal for another 5th

Jason La Canfora: Every reason to believe Eric Fisher is first overall pick. Chiefs will likely use up all theri time though being thorough in case of trade

Anybody want to hear my 2014 mock draft?

by Justin-Case 4/26/2013 12:13:07 AM
No.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 12:13:11 AM
trade up a few slots to get Warmack or stay and draft Vaccaro. anything else, trade down if possible

by Andrew 4/26/2013 12:13:11 AM
Jeff, I recently retired comfortably very early to South Florida from St Peters. Boomer and TJ are my fav TV commentators. You are my fav in print. Keep up the great work! This game is great. It's the best managed league I've ever been aware of.

by Dr M 4/26/2013 12:13:19 AM
Hello Jeff, do you think the Rams will trade up? I think they should stay put at 16 and maybe trade down at 22 if they get a good offer.

by JoeWStafford 4/26/2013 12:13:23 AM
I believe that is their likely course of action -- and a good idea.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 12:13:39 AM
Jeff...They are all in Indonesia mate....come do a story on the 53 Rams fans here ....we watch every game at 1am or 4 am (or later now)...and take Mondays off...

by Indonesian RamFan22 4/26/2013 12:13:47 AM
As my friend @DBL_L_01 points out, Austin is first wide receiver taken by Rams in first round since Torry Holt @BigGame81 in 1999.

by Jim Thomas via twitter 4/26/2013 1:21:47 AM
Rats, I was really hoping we'd get Chance Warmack

Clark Judge with CBSsports just tweeted: "Les Snead just ruined Jet's draft party."

by Mark Brownfield 4/26/2013 1:22:35 AM
dont we still need a safety?

by Ruben Chamberlain 4/26/2013 1:22:55 AM
Yes the Rams do. Draft not over.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 1:23:03 AM
Jim, what are the chances of a trade down from 22 to get back into the second round?

by BrockSTL 4/26/2013 1:23:07 AM
Very possible.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 1:23:15 AM
Who do you like better at 22- Vacarro, Lacy, Ogletree?

by SeanyD 4/26/2013 1:23:15 AM
Vaccaro if he is there.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 1:23:23 AM
This guy's athletic ability is astounding - small, yes but DYNAMIC. Game changer!

by Display Name:redbirded 4/26/2013 1:23:23 AM
So 22....Vacarro, Ogletree or Lacy? I vote Lacy and resign Mikell. He's better than people gave him credit for.

by The Ghost of Eric Dickerson 4/26/2013 1:23:39 AM
GREAT to see them go Get their Guy..TAVON is gonna be awesome to watch

by Evincar13 4/26/2013 1:23:39 AM
Lacy

by Keith 4/26/2013 1:23:39 AM
will get safety in the 3rd or 4th

by Warpigs 4/26/2013 1:23:43 AM
Great move! There wide outs and adding Cook will be a nightmare to guard!

by Ty 4/26/2013 1:25:03 AM
Don't love vaccaro. Ogletree is the better player.

by Todd 4/26/2013 1:25:03 AM
i think safety in later rounds now

by homer 4/26/2013 1:25:07 AM
Ogletree or Vacarro we'll see!!
