Actually happy with the Bears draft this year. I didn't like much of the previous two drafts so this is a welcome change for me. Obviously very happy with Caleb and ROME. Have no clue on the 3rd round pick (OT from YALE) so won't pretend to know whether it is/isn't a good pick (same with their 5th round EDGE pick from Kansas). But I love the Tory Taylor pick, even if it's way earlier than most punters or kickers go. After watching the Bears punter the last two years, this is a significant upgrade just being able to punt further than 30 yards and accurately.
Read his scouting report. Sounds like a nice pickup. They project him as an initial backup who should eventually be an NFL starter. Would be a nice get in the 5th if true.
Very happy with the Rams draft. Verse and Fiske will be invaluable with AD's retirement. Can't wait to see those guys next to Cobie Turner and Byron Young, but I'm not sure what kind of system Shula will run on defense.
Was thoroughly surprised and elated by the Blake Corum pick. Kyren's the man but having a reliable backup will be crucial to keeping him healthy. He gets injured a lot.
Also, I'm very they drafted a kicker. The Rams kicking game has been woeful since Matt Gay left. Hopefully this new kid is the answer.
Overall, this was really good draft for the Rams. Les Snead doing Les Snead things.

Rhule has only been here a year. Did you watch the spring game? Rhule was selling all the time. Tell me you weren't giddy with Raiola!
Absolutely. Couple reaches but brought in some studs on D. Good O line class. Great RB. A for me.

The Packers are my #2 team. I believe I have my 70's era Packers knit cap somewhere. You know the kind with the ball on top. LOL
I just meant it was a down draft year of guys. Good thing with so many that came back. Ty, Nash, Benhart, Ben Scott all may get drafted next year.
Went as expected for the most part. The 1st round OT fits the mold as an athletic swing lineman. They are bound and determined to cross train lineman and play the best 5, regardless of injuries. Thought there would be a cover corner taken in the first 4 rounds instead of all safetys.
They love to develop the versatile O lineman. The mauler from Duke played C, OT, and OG in college. GB has perfected that along with drafting and developing stud QBs..
The CB situation?. I really wanted Kool Aid in the 2nd
They must be confident in Stokes opposite Jaire. JA, when healthy is one of the best in the NFL. Carrington Valentine showed some promise last year as well. Or maybe one of the 3 stud safeties they brought in can play CB. Still a great draft. Edgerrin and Bullock are gonna be stars in the new 4-3 D.

If you think the Vikings were worried about the Jets drafting McCarthy, you should probably sit this one out. Better to be thought a fool than to remove all doubt. You do realize other teams are allowed to trade too, right?
Yeah Imma gonna go ahead and opine anyway. Thanks for your cconcern. Hahaha.
I think this is like the 20th year in a row they have had the most NFL picks.
