At this point, I really am just closing my eyes and hoping for the best. Robiskie's supposed to be ok I guess. And we got a center. That's the player that snaps the ball to the quarterback.
I'm really not sure what is the purpose of stockpiling 6th round picks. Won't most of these guys be available post-draft?
Honestly, the smells like one of those Browns drafts where every player is out of the league within five years.
I know that smell well.

There's nothing like waking up at 9am, getting all your stuff done early, waiting for the hours to slowly roll buy until draft time, make it through an excruciatingly boring 1st round....and then not even have your team draft anyone on day one.

I'm still scratching my head over the Raiders. They could have traded down, got another pick(at least) and still drafted the guy. I know Al Davis is senile, but surely there's other humans around, right?

My God the Raiders are a disaster.
Let me ask you this: right now the Browns boards are exploding because they didn't draft Rey Maualunga, twice. Worse, he's a Bengal now. But, .... is he really any good? Highlight reels aside?
Never having watched him play I have three thoughts:
1) When you're the third player from your position from the same school being drafted, there's a good chance you were aided by the system.
2) Everyone else passed on him too.
3) It feels a little like a Troy Palomalu-insecurity complex. (and remember, I think Palomalu is the most overrated player in the NFL, maybe ever.)

I'm feeling good about the Vikings draft. Getting Percy Harvin was a nice surprise (I didn't think he'd be available) and we got the line help we needed. And Green Bay did not take Orakpo or Crabtree with their first pick, which makes me happy.
I'll be pretty satisfied if the Vikings can get some decent defensive players with their picks today- that's the other big area where we need help.

After the Love Boat incidents, I'm surprised the Vikes even went near Harvin.

It frustrates me how good the Patriots are at playing NFL Draft.

Chad, you want to weigh in with your early opinion of Stephen McGee?

I watched him for several years. I did not see a college QB, let alone a pro one. Not unless Dallas is going to run the option.
Awful pick. It's time Steven Jones take over and hire a GM.

I am not sure I agree with the QB pick, but understand it kinda if the yare going to groom him. Why pick a Kicker to end the 5th round?

Is it me or is the new regime at Denver needing to learn how to draft?

I just don't think McGee needs to be groomed. He should be converted to WR or something. He is NOT a QB.
I'm not sure we needed a kicker.

McDaniels is running Denver into the ground. The press is killing him.

So Chad how do you feel the Cowboys have done in the draft so far?
