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

Trade up to get Austin -> "We gave up too much to get him."
Don't trade up and draft other team need -> "Why didn't we get Bradford any weapons for the offense?"
We cant do both people...

good actor

by cwf 4/26/2013 2:12:44 AM
Right on Scott, just called Johnny macs and ordered my Austin jersey. Yes great pic.

by Chris 4/26/2013 2:12:44 AM
BLOCKING, BRADFORD NEEDS PROTECTION NOW THAT HE has a 5 foot 8 inch receiver to try and find behind the 6 foot 6 inch linemen.

by Black Sheep 4/26/2013 2:12:44 AM
That is kind of why the team made the Jake Long deal.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:13:04 AM
We lose Amendola and Gibson, pick up Cook and Austin. I'd say that's a BIG improvement.

by BrockSTL 4/26/2013 2:13:04 AM
Scot....i thought getting Quick 33pick, givens, richardson, pead, cook, kendricks was getting him weapons and we chose to let danny go. have we given up on them and need austin now?

by Eric 4/26/2013 2:13:12 AM
Geno Smith probably regrets that silly tweet now.

by Ruben Chamberlain 4/26/2013 2:13:12 AM
Jones is a 3-4 OLB, prefer Ogletree

by Cappy22 4/26/2013 2:13:16 AM
C. Patterson still there. No surprise.

by JC 4/26/2013 2:13:16 AM
Who cuts Gruden's hair? The nearest cereal bowl.

by Justin-Case 4/26/2013 2:13:20 AM
sf on the move

by cwf 4/26/2013 2:13:20 AM
RT @SI_PeterKing: Huge pivot points in next 5 picks. Lots of backroom calls right now.

From La Canfora: There you have it. Been reporting for days the 49ers would be bold and had players targeted for move up. They have Dallas pick

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:14:16 AM
Really glad that the Niners didn't get Austin

by JP1 4/26/2013 2:14:20 AM
Is there a team23 - 30 who would even consider moving up. And for which player

by GeneM 4/26/2013 2:14:20 AM
DT is becoming possible. Best Player available..

by curtis 4/26/2013 2:14:28 AM
Jeff, went to eat, what did the Rams give up to get Austin?

by JoeWStafford 4/26/2013 2:14:32 AM
No. 16, second-round pick, seventh round pick for the No. 8 and a swap in the third round.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:15:04 AM
Jake Long is great, but what about the rest of the O Line?

by Black Sheep 4/26/2013 2:15:04 AM
Saffold, Dahl, Wells, Watkins, Chris Williams, Shelley Smith, players TBA in this draft.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:16:25 AM
Great move by rams. Number 1 need ...playmakers

by Display Name:e$ 4/26/2013 2:16:25 AM
Umm..desean Jackson, welker, maclin, amendola. They are all smaller than Tavon and they are okày players.

by Chris 4/26/2013 2:16:28 AM
friggin niners. i hate 'em!

by Go Rams from DisneyWorld, FL 4/26/2013 2:16:28 AM
Niners get LSU safety Reid!

by Sacramento Ram 4/26/2013 2:16:29 AM
Yes, so the Rams may sit on that pick and use it.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:16:48 AM
Based on the SF, we aren't seeing any 2 round picks

by Cappy22 4/26/2013 2:16:52 AM
I know DT isnt a need but dont we have to think about Floyd if we cant trade down?

by ballzy99 4/26/2013 2:17:00 AM
That devalues our value... Glad they didn't get much, but drops our potential return.

by andre 4/26/2013 2:17:01 AM
Eric Reid to the 49ers who traded up with the Cowboys. Any idea what they gave up?

by NJRamsFan 4/26/2013 2:17:57 AM
Third-round pick.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:18:05 AM
On that last close-up of Kiper, I noticed one of those static reminder stickers from Jiffy-Lube on the back of his neck.

by Justin-Case 4/26/2013 2:18:09 AM
How many people will go nuts if we take Lacy at 22?

by JP1 4/26/2013 2:18:09 AM
Just have to hope and pray our OL stays healthy cause all of them have injury issues.

by Ruben Chamberlain 4/26/2013 2:18:13 AM
Bears take Tao.

by Black Sheep 4/26/2013 2:18:45 AM
If we take te'o, I will sell my PSL.

by Chris 4/26/2013 2:18:49 AM
Don't worry.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:19:01 AM
You think the Rams will go after another WR?

by Mark 4/26/2013 2:19:01 AM
Not any time soon.

by Jeff Gordon 4/26/2013 2:19:09 AM
just got in from coaching my sons' pony team practice, surprised (not disappointed) to see the rams moved up that far to grab austin!

by dramfan 4/26/2013 2:19:13 AM
Ogletree, Lacy, trade back. In that order

by Todd 4/26/2013 2:19:13 AM
will be interesting to see what sj39 does in red zone in hotlanta? he stunk for us. not much pay dirt over last several years in red zone on ground. i think running game will be better next year. Hopefully we can pick up blitz...only ???

by Go Rams from DisneyWorld, FL 4/26/2013 2:19:21 AM
Jackson will score plenty in Atlanta. The blocking will help.
