Feels a little like taking Jonathan Singleton in the 8th round back in 2009. Favorite pick of the day if they can sign him.

Great pick. Was thought of as a possible top 40 pick.

I like what I've been reading about Martin, good eye at the plate with some power

Murph says martin and pickett were at the CBP workout and were cranking them out.

floppy comes out of hiatus to offer his take

more articulating the same rationale I have than it is offering a lot of analysis on the picks.

My quick Day 2 take.
Unless we saved a heap of money under slot value, I don't care for the picks in the 3rd and 5th round.
Didn't really like the 6th and 7th rounders much either unless we got some savings.
Really dig the Martin pick. Slight reach but great numbers. Who cares that he is limited to 1B. Masher with 39BB and 27Ks. Plus was a senior sign.
Loved the Pickett selection. I assume we have a deal.
Very Pleased with 9th and 10th round picks as well.

I think maybe we have 500K extra to play with but I've been known to be too optimistic in that regard.
I think we'll know with our very first pick whether we got a guy passed through on a deal.

Gilbert, Leftwich and Laird are the picks that don't make sense to me if not all under slot.
