Well somebody was wrong. Too bad it was to the Stillers.

I bet it hurts, doesn't it?  Stings.

I wonder if the Lions plan to run a 4 DT front :moon:

While I don't know if Nick Fairley will work out for the Lions; I do know that he's headed to the right town.  If you're the sort of person who would steal Joe Paterno's glasses and wear them in public then Detroit is the city for you.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I liked the Ravens pick.  I also liked the Panthers' choice, because now they're doomed.

I don't know, Newton could be great--maybe one of the best ever--his upside is really that high.  But I see him as very unlikely to reach that upside.  His downside, BTW, which I also see as very unlikely, is that he's the next JaMarcus Russell.  Most likely scenario--he's the new Richard Todd.

49ers took Kap too. What's up with all the QBs going so early? I figured another couple rounds before they started dropping in earnest.

Dalton and Kap were both thought of as possible 1st rounders and rounding out the 6 best qb's and I'm sure as soon as Dalton was picked the Niners ran to trade up to make sure they didn't miss out.

Oh fuck it looks like Baltimore's taking Torrey Smith from Maryland.

I so just jizzed.

Christ, Franco Harris looks like he just stepped out of 1978.  The man's the Dick Clark of football.

Texans first two rounds:

JJ Watt - DL Wisconsin
Brooks Reed - LB Arizona
Brandon Harris - DB Miami

They really, really need the help.  All three should be instant starters.

What's the story with Smith?  Is he young Derrick Mason or this year's Yamon Figurs?
