Anyone keeping an eye on the draft. I'm really happy with the Vikings draft considering they traded most of it for the best pass rusher in the league.
2nd - Tyrell Johnson - maybe the best safety in the draft 5th - J D Booty - solid backup QB who could possibly step in right away if needed. 5th - Letroy Guion - on sheer physical talent (size, speed) he's worth it. Only 20 and may have character issues but it is the bottom of the 5th after all.
I have mixed feelings about the Cowboys draft. I think they probably reached a little too high for Felix Jones. I felt they drafted the wrong corner in Mike Jenkins (would've gone with Brandon Flowers myself). I think they could've traded down, and instead they traded up. I don't like that they didn't address the receiver spot which is a glaring weakness on your team when Sam Hurd is your #4. And I think they spent picks on running back and corner back in the second day that maybe they should've spent addressing line depth on both sides of the ball, always a healthy thing to do in any draft.
But then, all this stockpiling of secondary players seems to give at least a little credibility to the rumors of the Roy Williams for Chad Johnson trade. At this point, there's not a whole lot else the Cowboys could do to help wide out, given the complete lack of anything available on the free agent market.

The 49ers have so many glaring needs, but they need wide outs, too. They hired Isaac Bruce as a free agent this off season, but I really expected them to draft someone also. They finally, in the 6th round, drafted someone from VT, Josh Morgan. The blurb on espn.com says he "comes with some off-the-field baggage."

I'm just happy that Chris Long did not go to the Patriots like a few people were saying was possible. I love Chris Long way too much for him to play for them ;D
This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo

The Jags traded up to get Harvey and still got Quentin Groves out of Auburn...if both of them live up to the value boards, it should be remembered as a great move.
They gave up a shitload to get Derrick Harvey, and he's not that spectacular. He's got great speed, but his technical skills lack, he's quite a raw talent. Not worth moving up to 8th to get him, not nearly enough value at that pick.

After looking into it a bit I've decided that the Bears did okay. It's good that they got some of the offensive players they've lacked and they picked some value WRs and an RB who compliments their system. Sadly, without anyone to THROW THE FREAKING BALL, it may not do them any good.

They've done a pretty good job of developing raw talent since Del Rio came in, though. Harvey may not be a most spectacular DE, but he was considered to be the best at the point where they got him. I'm surprised that they traded up, but all they gave up was two thirds and a fourth round pick, and they switched firsts with Baltimore. Two thirds and a fourth aren't that great in a shallow draft, especially with the depth they have at a lot of positions. The main thing to me is that they didn't trade any of next year's picks.
Besides, they drafted like ten players last year. They got five this year. So, since the norm is seven, that's actually one more than they should've drafted in the last two years.
;D
