Saints have my vote for best draft. What they are getting this late in the first is insane.

Good good pickup here for them. Gives them great flexibility and their first real RB in a while.

Good job, Saints! Continuing the legacy of former Heisman winning running backs

Ricky and Reggie worked out great!

I haven't got a pick right in the Leaf contest since #16. ::facepalm::

I'm still waiting for MK2 to start ripping these teams for all these "reaches". Could be fun! :lol:

Suzie pulls an 'Up Close with Roy Firestone' moment with Ingram.

Let's see if the Bears can screw this up somehow.

They should draft Kristin Cavallari

Saints by far the winner of the first round - two great late 1st round picks - great talent , pedigree

Falcons - love Julio but they gave up way way too much

I really like this pick. Kinda surprised the Iggles liked Watkins more than him...

Bears got their man. Gotta give them credit, great pick.

The 31st pick is statistically the least successful pick in the draft, so the Steelers should trade this pick to the Ravens to sabotage their season.

They draft a DE but not Bowers?

An awesome pick by the Steelers, Heyward is excellent against the run and he can rush the passer.

Bowers is strictly a 4-3 End.

You can say goodbye to Reggie Bush now that they've picked up Ingram. Wonder if anyone will bother picking him up. The one thing that bothered me was every idiot on their phone, turn that crap off until afterwards.

What? Do you think they're talking to a friend? Its the GM/coach calling to tell the player they're drafting them...

Maybe in some instances.

No, every time.

The coach/gm ALWAYS calls the player and talks to them before the pick is announced. Even if they are not in New York and they're at home, the team calls.

100% of the time, not 'sometime', every time.

LOVE IT! Actually had them picking Heyward and was happy when they were up. He and Ziggy Hood are bookends now. It was a need and was addressed with a great pick.

Bowers is strictly a 4-3 End.

Bowers has also been called a "ticking time bomb" with his injury, and that it's a matter of when it will re-occur, not if.

I was kinda confused by the Taylor selection but it makes some sense looking back at what Holmgren had in Green Bay. I'm guessing he sees Taylor as a Gilbert Brown type player.
