Grade your team's draft

["Redneck" Johnson]

For the Vikings I'm going with a C-. While I liked trading down in principal it was because I thought we needed a QB. We instead used it to draft a CB from Virginia who I didn't know anything about. Even more mind boggling is the fact we signed Lito Shepherd a few days before to shore up the position.

I like the Gerhart pick. WE need a strong back to pick up after Chester Taylor moved on and he fits the bill.

I have no clue about the kid from UAB. But I have a bad taste in my mouth after we drafted Tavaris- I'm really nervous about QBs from small schools in Alabama. Strange because we have one from Mississippi that is doing just fine.

Part of my low grade is that we didn't pick in the first round and grabbed an ACC corner. The rest of the picks I've not really heard of. Maybe they'll pan out for Childress, but typically he's done well with grabbing names I recognize in the draft.

B-

Loved the Dez pick. Love it. Dallas essentially only had two WRs, Witten and Austin. Now we have a legitimate third.

As for the rest of the draft...I've never heard of or watched any of the other draftees play. We filled some needs, like LB and S and OL (although the players we drafted for those spots weren't marquee).

So...the draft didn't wow me top to bottom. But Joe D is excited for the S we drafted and his contributions to the special teams, which we desperately need. I love Decamillis, so if he's excited for a player, I am. Beyond that, gonna have to see how everything plays out. So it's a solid B.

The only concern is Bryant has the same agent as Crabtree. Even though Dez was picked in the 20s, I hope they're not trying to get top 10 money. I really don't want out stud draft to be a hold out.

Actually I have no idea. I hadn't heard of anyone the Browns drafted except Colt McCoy (obviously) before the draft started.

Here's a mock draft for 2011 though!

I thought Philly's draft was very "Kafka-esque."

(prepare for another million jokes like that!)
