1) G. Cherilus- RT
2) M. Harrison- DL
3) Terell Thomas- CB
4) Lichtensteiger- C
5) Mike Hart- RB
6) Kenny Moore- WR
7) Forfeited as for our actions in Rossum-gate

I guess.

Be back later, draft nerds.

Trade down....and yes I am a draft nerd.

3 top corners still on board, not a WR taken yet, although Detroit hasn't picked yet.  Crossing my fingers that OL keeps dropping.

[jonzr]

With cherilus to DET, that's four OL in 6 picks.  Not a WR off the board yet.

[Brinker]

Nice I did not want Gosder

could be a WR now....hmmmm

[Brinker]

Flacco to Baltimore...hope he blows...

 

[jcharding]

I really dislike how this is shaping up.  I hope and pray someone really wants to trade up to 23 because since every OL with even a marginal first round grade will be gone by our pick our biggest weakness will only get worse.  Blech.

[Y2Joyce]

Anyone wanna trade up for Mendenhall? One of the WRs?

I'd try and try to trade back for a look at DE Balmer, or DT Harrison or perhaps OT Sam Baker slides some.

Neither of the 3 top WRs thrill me (Thomas, Kelly, Jackson). I'd like Hardy but not at 23.

[Finnegans Wake]

The OTs are gone.

Mayo went very high, but the Pats confirmed that we scouted talent.

Kinda glad Cherilus and Otah are off.

Stewart went high.  Why not Mendenhall?  Thought that was who the Lions and the Panthers might take.

Fuck the Jags for giving so much to swap with the Ravens, but God bless them for taking Flacco at 18.  Idiots.

A lot of trades, which I actually expected, and a few surprises, but nothing real major, beyond Mayo going top 10.

Hoping the Steelers trade down in te Brohm scenario.

[Ytownsteelfan]

Atlanta and Balty both got QBs, that leaves Brohm and Henne on the board yet.  KC has enough picks to trade up to get one.  Not sure that "The Tuna" and Tony Saprano are enamoured with Beck.  Seriously though, KC, Miami, Minny, and Chitown are about the only teams off the top of my head that need a QB.  KC looks to be the best option since they have the most picks available.
