He's not bad, probably the 3rd best QB in the draft. Decent arm played in a "pro style" offense. Although he didn't exactly play against the toughest competition in the MWC. He played great against Oregon in their bowl game (375 yards 2 touchdowns).

dallas netting clevelands first rounder next year is absolutely huge. Joe thomas and brady quinn are great building blocks but that defense is atrocious and they play in a tough division. dallas locked up a potential top 5 pick for next year for basically a third and fifth round this year.
My Niners had a fantastic draft, including fleecing the Colts for their first rounder next year in exchange for a 2nd this year.
niners did have a strong first day to go with some great off season moves, good to see them coming back from the dead.
Eagles made a ridiculous choice.... Kolb with their first pick. He wasn't even the best QB available there, i just don't get it.
We have McNabb, he will be around for like 5 more years.. and we have Feely a proven backup.. and Holcomb D: Such a wasted pick, i wanted Houston or heck Leanord.
Atleast we did get our big back in Tony Hunt. Him and Westbrook are going to be amazing.
Can't believe michael bush still not been taken. He may have went higher than peterson had he not broke his leg. Whoever gets him gonna get a steal.
Still can't believe the Dolphins' choice. Ted Ginn, even I would have chosen Golden Boy, Brady Quinn. -.- I guess they are relying on getting Treant Green.. who probably doesn't have but a couple years left anyway.
Bush not being chosen yet will be a steal in the second day.
Eagles taking who they did was.. interesting to say the least. Few other odd choices taken today, but overall, bleh. I liked Indy taking Anthony Gonzalez and the Saints taking Meachem.. wow, should be an interesting WR core.
GOOOO PANTHERS and seriously rofl @ the skins and the dolphins. Good game.
I kinda thought for a while they'd pick up Greg Olsen, but I think they drafted Jeff King last year and they've already got some depth there. So meh.
Jon Beason I'm happy with. The only thing I'm worried about is that there's a possibility he's injury prone, (shoulder separation, knee ligament tear and not-such-a-big-deal sprained thumb) and even though I hate to say it, I'm worried he'll get hurt in Carolina, lol.
Ryan Kalil is a promising center. He needs to put on a bit of weight, is all.
I'm kind of curious about Dewayne Jarrett. With the right discipline he could be a really, really good player.
And to be honest I don't know much about Charles Johnson.
What I'm really really hoping for is that the players are just able to stay healthy throughout the year, and that Delhomme gets his shit together early, or fucks up soon enough to give Carr a shot. Kind of looking forward to that because his completion percentage is getting better year to year (except for 2004-2005.)
Maybe in the 4-7 rounds they'll pick up a couple more people to add depth to the craptastic offensive line they have.
I actually want to see Delhomme get put on the bench so David Carr can get a shot. Just think about it. He'd wonder what the fuck was going on if he actually had pass protection.. considering what he's used to. "Hello getting sacked 70+ times in 2 separate seasons." Now granted he was only sacked 41 times last year, he's still been sacked way too much. He's been sacked 249 times in his 5 year career and only missed 4 games. It's quite sad. So either way, I'll be happy to see him behind a line that MIGHT be able to give him longer than a second to throw the ball. Who knows, he might actually be really, really good.Originally Posted by Shadowstalker
I'd like to see Jake Delhomme benched period. He's nowhere near as good as he use to be. Seems every year he keeps getting shittier and shittier. Not to mention hes a fucking commercial whore in the Carolinas.Originally Posted by Akiyama
I'm pretty fucking excited about Panthers picking up Dwayne Jarret if they train him right we could have an insane WR team with him Smith and Keyshawn.
Still don't know why they picked Jon Beason![]()
The Eagles are still one of the top 2 teams in the NFC and felt that no one else who was available at that spot could help the team. A lot of people had Kolb rated higher than Quinn, so it wasn't that much of a reach. But i still would have preferred Chris Houston.Originally Posted by Silfer

But on a good note, I'm pretty excited to see Reggie Nelson fill in our open safety spot on the Jaguars!

I guess destroying lolNotreDame really helped.
Not sure if anyone noticed it but Patriots are gonna have sooo much going for them with the 2008 Draft.
3 1st Round Picks and 2 Seconds Round.....insane.
It's freaking dumb how one team can do that and also have all the cap room to sign lots of talent FA's etc.
I thought the NFL was setup to combat this.

Because most of the players on their team do not make diddly shit, lol. That leaves them room to pick up on less expensive players than they were (Moss, Stallworth) a few years ago.Originally Posted by Silfer
Question though, how is it that a heisman trophey winning QB gets dropped all the way to the 5th round in Troy Smith? So much better than Quinn ever was in the college ranks, kinda sad.
EA quickly added the Top 10 @_@
