Good pick for the Jets -- not really sure about the trade though. They gave up a lot to get Sanchez.
The Bengals got a guy to protect their QB. Something they needed badly.

Darrius Heywood-Bey to the Raiders? The fastest guy in the draft this year, but not the most accomplished receiver.
This pick messes up a lot of people's mocks.

Somewhere.....whoever gets Crabtree....is laughing out loud to the point of insanity.

The fact it was San Fran makes it even better!:biglaugh:

Eagles trade up for Maclin!!!

So instead of over paying for Edwards or Boldin....they take a young kid they can tie up for a long time at much less money........that is the eagles for ya.

I can't believe they went wr though...then again....they didn't really have a deep need for first round anyways.

Look for McCoy in 2nd round trade up to be Rb I bet.

surprise picks for me:

Still don't buy Ty Jackson to KC
#5 trade up to get Sanchez, knew it would happen somewhere..but to trade up that high....and give up alot to get there.
Then Bone head pick of the draft: Raiders with Heyward-Bey
Jax passing on Crabtree to take another OT isn't a huge miss, in fact it makes the running game even better.
San Fran gets to absolutely dance their way up to get Crabtree. Meanwhile those in Oakland are looking to kill the Raiders management!
Denver takes ANOTHER rb....sheesh
Bucaneers trade up for Freeman...big, big mistake.
Eagles trade up to get Maclin...need to see what that trade actually was

Kenny Britt to the Titans was a fine pick. About time they quit putting on spare tires and get that offense some wheels.

Going to start with top 10 comments:
3. Tyson Jackson, still feel this is a MISTAKE. He may be a fine player, but I don't think he will have the impact that Curry will have.
4. Curry, great scoop by Seattle. Bolsters their D by picking up a great LB they can play on the inside or outside.
5. Jets move up and get Sanchez......I don't think they have the caliber of player they think they do. in the end, this will be a top 5 bust.
6. Well they did it....Cincy take Andre Smith, hope it works out, but would have rtaher had Monroe.....
7. DHB, lol, only the Raiders, nuff said.
8. Monroe to Jacksonville, great pick! They line was in shambles last year, Monroe is a very nice addition.
9. Love the Raji pick by GB, he can be the new DT anchor for GB's new 3-4.
10. SF has their next star at WR. Crabtree will be the last in a long line of people who make Al Davis look like an idiot.

11. Maybin, so big shock, but I think it will be a wasted pick. But they need a pass rusher and got one.
12. Moreneo, good pick by Denver. I called a RB in my mock (wrong one), with dealing Cutler, they need someone to carry the load, Moreneo can do this.
13. Orakpo, wow, a great draft pick by Washington....really?
14. Malcolm to NO, so suprise and very nice pick.
15. Cushing to Houston, another no brainer and good pick.
16. Larry English....man got to say SD could have done better here....very raw. Not sure I like the value.
17. OMG, not only did they take him, they drafted up to do so....is RH on suicide watch? Freeman just set this franchice back a couple years IMO.
18. Ayers to Denver ,don't love it, but they do need the help on D.....just a question of if he's worth it.
19. Eagles trade up to get Maclin....sorry, don't like the fit. This is a Desean Jackson clone for the most part. Would have been better off dealing for one of the vets IMO.
20. Pettigrew to Detroit.....shocked they passed on Oher...but to be honest, this is a SOLID pick! One of the better blocking TE's to come out in a long time that can also catch. Adds a safety net for Stafford and can help keep him upright.

21. Browns take Mack, very good center, they swung and missed with Faine a few years ago, maybe they finally have their center to anchor that line.
22. Vikes take Percy Harvin, man I don't like this a whole lot, but he does add some versatility.
23. Ravens deal up for Oher, hell of a pick! One of the better picks later in the first round.
24. Falcons - Jerry, nice pick for this defense. They are moving in the right direction.
25. Vontae Davis, I know DD hates the pick, but I think they got themselves a player here. You have to trust Parcels judgement at this point, nice pick.
26. Packers trade in to get Matthews. That is shaping up to be a great LB crew in GB.
27. Donald Brown to the Colts....made me scratch my head a little, guess they are worried about Addai long term, nice overall back, but a little puzzled how they will use both, they seem very similar.
28. Bills select Eric Wood, his stock was rising, but I think there was better options. not a bad pick, but think unger is a better prospect if that was the route you were goign to go. A tackle also seemed to make more sense.
29. Giants take Nicks, great pick! This kid can just play, nice replacement long term for Burress.
30. Titans take Britt to improve the passing game. Nice receiver, no big issues with the pick.
31. Chris Wells to Arizona, love the pick! He won't have to carry the whole offense and won't be the focal point meaning a lot of lanes to run through. Wells fits in nicely in the desert.
32. Ziggy Hood to Pit. not a bad player, but feel there was better fits on the OL to help this unit out more than taking hood will do.
