i didn't realize the titans did as good as they did until i just looked now, but you ca't deny the future backfield combo of young and white. also, being from wiscompton, i think jonothan orr (wr) isnt a bad pickup either for the 5th round

Yeah i agree lendel screwed himself out of a first round pick cause when they were scouting he wasnt conditioning like he should.

I think the Cardinals made out pretty well. Leinart will back up Kurt Warner this year and learn the ropes, We've got Edgeran James, and with Bolden and Fitgerald we'll finally have a powerful offense to go with a decent defense. Add that to a brand new stadium and I'm really excited to see how my team (who's been laughed at since they came here) does.

I forgot to add none of this will matter if their O line offers little protection as in years past.

I really liked their first picks Maroney and Jackson. Don't know much about the later rounds.

I was mildly surprised about Denver taking Cutler. And the Giants, can someone explain to me why they took a defensive end when they already have Strahan and Umenyiora?

I liked that the Stellers got Santonio. Immediate impact player if they need him.

they don't think its enough, i agree, the still lacked. but i htought they'd get a dope lb, it'd be mad straight if aj hawk fell through, he reminds me of shockey...
i think its straight that they got a steve smith similar wideout, now they got three different builds of wide receivers, and the best tight end dare i say ever...

apparently the bills wanted to trade down but there werent any offers that were worth taking, or people knew that the bills would throw away more of their draft picks and didnt bother lol

personally i didnt mind their draft (witner is a hard hitter and should fit well, mccargo is still a question mark because he played beside lawson and williams)

youtoboy(sp?) was a good pick, and ko simpson was a steal in the 4th (some had him ranked higher than witner at saftey), the rest of their pics were to add depth on the lines (and 1 undersized linebacker they'll probably move to saftey and use as a special teamer).

they addressed all of their needs so it was a successful draft in theory, we just have to wait and see if mccargo and witner pan out

I'd say the Saints. Hands down. They received Bush who'll be teamed up with Brees, a proven vet. Also, they have the excitement of Bush to bring people back to the Superdome next season.

They also improved their O-line and D. in the later rounds.

I still think the niners are dumb for taking a tight end..

I mean.. who they got is really good, thats for sure, but they have Eric Johnson and hes not bad whatsoever.

They should have traded up to get Reggie Bush.. I swear.. They would have had it.


The raiders had a sick draft though. Michael Huff is raw, and almost every other player they drafted has huge potential.

I see the raiders as a playoff potential team in 2 years.

Nice Bill Belichick interview moment after the draft:

Interviewer: "Coach, you seem to have problems in the defense, such as LB and CB, yet you took offensive players with the first 5 picks, including a kicker. Doesn't this seem odd? I mean, it seems to be a very offense oriented draft, does it not?"

Belichick: "If you take a running back in the first round, and then trade up to take a wide reciever in the second round, it's going to be hard to have a defensive draft"

^ yeah wtf. plummer comes off his best year and they traded up to get a quarterback?
I'm not happy with the pats picks. Lawrence Maroney wasn't even the best RB available when they took him (Deangelo Williams or Lendale White). and they really shouldve gone for defense on the first pick, but it wouldve been hard bc thats what pretty much everybody did. Chad jackson wasnt a bad 2nd round pick though they just needed to get more defensive guys.
