Anyone watching?  Nice to see that Roger Goodell still gets booed.

KRonn

Hehe, Roger is making what, 40mil a year? Something ridiculous. I'm not watching but going to see who the Patriots get as they make the usual yearly changes that all teams make. I'm hoping they get a very good tight end to replace Gronk, and strengthen the defense.

Browns already got their pick:  OBJ.  That said, the Raiders did... ok.  I think they severely reached at 4 for their guy though.

Kind of a fun first round night.  First time I ever went to a draft party-type thing.  Bengals got a stud OT, so I'm happy.

Defeatist yokel fans are whining about how Pittsburgh traded up and "stole our LB".  Bengals were going to take Williams regardless.  Steelers might have stolen him from someone else, but not from the Bengals.

I think it's now official - the Giants are the worst-run organization in the NFL.

You are, of course, thinking Cleveland is not part of the NFL?

Nah Cleveland is actually looking semi competent. Giants can't say the same.

Patriot's round one pick was a wide receiver, next two rounds defensive players, then a running back and offensive linesmen. Plus a QB in round four. Then more defense players.

Strangely no TE. Either they intend to get one elsewhere or to change the offense to fit their personnel.

They'll sign some random undrafted free agent or someone from another team's practice squad and turn him into a star.

That offensive linesman is the 2nd ever Dane to be drafted in the NFL. :w00t: I might root for the Patriots this season.

Wondered where that dude was from.  A name like that sticks out in the NFL :D
