Well, tomorrow night. And only the first round. But still... Simmons just did his mock sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/100420I don't want a mock, but who are you hoping to see your team draft? I'm hoping Dallas takes a good S in the first. Either that or trade up for a O lineman. |

Would love to somehow get Earl Thomas, but I don't think there's a way to do it.

Would also love Earl Thomas on the Vikings but he'll be gone a lot earlier than that.
Colt McCoy I would like. I'd be upset if Simmons is right and we get Clausen.

Not having watched much college football over the past, say, lifetime, I guess I'd be happy with Eric Berry.
I've seen a lot of stuff suggesting the Browns might be sort of "stuck" at #7 if their guys are off the board. I'd be ok with drafting yet another offensive lineman - a tackle to play right. That'd be Joe Thomas at LT, Alex Mack at C, and, say, Trent Williams or whoever at RT for the next decade. I like that. A lot.

I'll be happy if the Steelers just end the draft with Ben still on the team.

BTW, I'd like to just throw it out one last time about how stupid skipping on Suh truly is. My dream scenario is that the Browns trade w/ St. Louis and pick Suh, SHOCKING THE WORLD. In such a scenario, Bradford could slip back to St. Louis at 7.

Since you guys seem to like Earl Thomas, I'll say I hope the Browns get Earl Thomas.

Tebow. Where does he end up and when does he come off the board?
I say second round, to Jacksonville.

I liked the Vikings trade the minute they made it. The teams that pick ahead of them now are:
Detroit (Stafford)
Indy (Manning)
New Orleans (Brees)
St. Louis (Bradford)
That's 4 teams with franchise QBs. Even if someone like Buffalo trades up one of McCoy or Clausen remains on the board. So for no change in our pick we move up in the 4th round and gain a 7th rounder.
I want McCoy tomorrow. I think there's some mental issues with Clausen that make me nervous to take him. We've had too many head cases (Demetrius Underwood, Helen of Troy Williamson, Tavaris Jackson) to make me want another.

Was at a sports bar tonight to watch the draft. Place went crazy for the Tebow pick. A nice mix of "yeaaahh!!" and "ooohh noooo!!!!!!"

Dallas only really has two WRs: Witten and Austin. Crayton and Hurd and Ogletree and Williams are all serviceable in certain moments, but not continuously reliable. Adding Dez Bryant was a HUGE move. I thought for sure Dallas would go S or OL and try to get another WR later. I'm very please with round one.
On another note, I hope Denver enjoyed giving up most of their draft for a player who probably won't see the field for two years.
