God I hope the Patriot don't get Dan Williams, that would be major suckage.

Gresham should be solid from the start. Stay healthy and he will be the starter right away

Sergio Kindle for the Pats here?

Whoops... guess not.

Very good.

WR Demaryius Thomas to the Broncos?

Broncos swap with Pats. Hmmm....

With the Bengals TEs he could start with his knee blown out.

I also really like Jerry Hughes, I think he could be a solid solid backer for years.

*sigh* well so much for the Pats actually picking someone with their pick...they've traded down so Kindle+Bryant will get taken by Denver and Green Bay and we'll end up with Dan Williams or some shit.

Packers up... I'd assume Bulaga will be the pick.

FWIW, I'm enjoying the NFL.com live feed - they're cutting over for the picks, but chatting in the studio in the meantime, so no spoilers. No interviews either, but I'll lose the interviews for the lack of spoils.

So they could get either Dan Williams, Dez Bryant,Thomas, Kindle whatever is left after NE and GB pick they should have two or three of those left to pick from. Why has Williams dropped so much again?

I'd probably say NE will take Bryant.. probably knew Denver would take Thomas, GB doubtful to take Bryant with Bulaga/Hughes/Kindle out there...

I'm kind of surprised that Thomas goes before Dez Bryant

I'd be amazed if there wasn't cheering in the Packer green room. Bulaga at 23?

Thomas has all the potential to be a monster WR. There were numerous times to me he seemed like virtually the same sort of athletic freak that Calvin Johnson is.

Ugh. Bryant looks set to go to the Patriots now. Or Williams.

Ugh ugh ugh.

unless the Pats trade down again out of the first...LOL

+1

Pats can't take Williams. They need Kindle if they go defense. D-Line doesn't need anymore damn bodies.

*kicks the NFL.com feed*

dammit, now Jared allen will have to earn his 5 sacks against GB

I'm betting Dallas trades out of the first round so someone can move up for a QB.

Bulaga looks like he was cloned from Fuzzy Thurston.

Kindle doesn't scare me at all.

I'd like to see Odrick go to the Pats.

I know. I'd rather they take Bryant personally.

wonder if Taylor Mays is going to fall out of the first.

I really hope that Baltimore doesn't end up with Dan Williams.

Running against Ngata and Williams for the next four or five years will not be cool for the rest of the AFC North.

OMG...THEY FUCKING TRADED IT AGAIN!!!

i'm done with the Hoodie. I honestly think he doesn't have enough confidence in his player evaluation to make first round picks.

I'm tired of it. We trade down down down for a million picks and none of them end up sticking with the fucking team.

So Dallas just jumped the Ravens. Smart move on the Pats' part. They are still guaranteed to get the front seven help they want.

So, am I missing it or is ESPN just not giving the details of these trades?

I'm sure the party line will be

"Oh we wanted Sergio Kindle all along so we kept trading down for him."

But sometimes you've got to deviate from what you want when a gift horse falls into your fucking lap.

REEEEEE-LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAX.

Very happy with the Packers taking an OT.

And one reason I like Twitter I guess, instant player reaction to their team's picks.

New England gave Dallas a 4th and got Dallas' 3rd for the swap.

Standings through 24 picks:

Raiders Army 512
QuikSand 485
ShadowJack 479
Mustang 457
Swaggs 419
RonnieDobbs2 419

That pick puts a whole new light on the dealings Bryant had with Deion.

I'm glad Bryant went some where other than NE.

Looks like my Cards will go LB here, which I feel is kind of a wasted pick when they just could have kept Karlos Dansby.

What... is a 4 year old running the Pats for you to get this angry?

Do the Cowboys get to play with more footballs than other teams?

I was watching that until I got control of the TV. Both NFL.com and NFLN have had great coverage, IMO.

I think that was one of the best moves of the draft.

Haha...nah...I just like being angry today apparently.

Tebow to Broncos?

Anyone have a good link that is tracking the trades?

Looks very possible now.. I wonder how pissed he is at Pete.

Glad to see the Cowboys take Dez Bryant - I think his immaturity leads to him being a big bust there.

and here goes Tebow

If the Pats liked Bryant, they would have grabbed him at 22. There's some depth with receivers with second-round grades.

They're doing fine, and will use the extra picks to trade up in the second round when something comes along.

Gotta enjoy it while I can...but it won't last.

I love Gruden. He just totally verbally bitched slap Young when for like the fourth time he was talking shit about Denver's McDaniel and trading away Brandon Marshall. Classic. He is right to the guy caught ton of passes none in the playoffs and when in the last game they needed him hewas able to play.Correct.

Tebow? Wowsers

holy crap Tebow going before Clausen, W T F?

To Denver?

Tebow to Denver. Hmmm.

are you serious? balt cant be that dumb

Clausen is a giant douche who lacks leadership skills..

That would be the stadium where he would be closest to Jesus.

whos taking tebow? and who needs to be fired for this move?

Broncos = Epic Fail.

Tebow lacks QB throwing skills.

wonder if they thought the Cards might take him if they didn't get him here

Eh...I'm just irritated. I'd like to see them stick and take a pick for once...instead of constantly trading down. Especially because BB hasn't really shown that his "trade down and get a ton of picks" strategy has resulted in getting guys that stick on the team.

Frankly I think Pioli was much more important than any of us thought.

Congrats to Tebow, heck of a gamble, but one that I believe will pay off for Denver better than most of the other options available to them.

A lot to pay for a Wildcat QB.

LOL

Irony.

Yikes. :)

Makes no sense.

wow, shocker.

Denver traded a 2nd, 3rd, and a 4th to move up to get Tebow!?!?!?! Whoa.

Broncos = morons.

Wow. Baltimore with a heck of a trade.

Was it up the thread here somewhere where someone said (or reference someone's report) that McDaniel knew all along who he wanted & was maneuvering to get that player from the beginning?

I wonder if Kiper has ever missed by this much, on such a high profile guy, as with Clausen? I know Rodgers slid quite a bit, but I'm not sure how highly he was rated. He obviously ended up being a very good starter, so I'm not knocking Mel (who I like a lot) -- just curious as to whether or not he has had a top 5 guy drop out of the top 25 before.

Eagles still have the #37 and need a S?

There was an article a while back (Peter King?) that pointed out that the Patriots have really not done much in the draft since the first couple that BB and Pioli put together, and much of their mystique comes from taking Brady in the 6th round. And outside of the D-Line, they've missed a lot since then.

No fucking way geez Tebow what hell did we get Quinn for.

That would be awesome. I think he has all of the physical skills to become a very good safety.

Tebow has what looks like a douchebag of a posse around him.

FTR, the only QB in this draft I believe will have an equal or better NFL than Tebow is Claussen and I'm not nearly 100% sure about even him.

And people make fun of the Raiders???

cant believe ESPN managed to hype him into the 1st round. Mcdaniels is an idiot and i feel sorry for Denver fans. on the plus side i dont have to worry about the Vikes taking him at 1.30

I didn't enjoy the over-coverage that he got at Florida, but I'm rooting for Tebow. He seems like a good kid.

I have to say I just don't understand taking Tebow if your Denver. You just traded for Brady Quinn and Kyle Orton is serviceable. Surely you had a bigger need than QB?

But McDaniels is a GENIUS!

According to an article about his draft night plans I saw a little earlier, those are pretty likely his old high school teammates.

Yeah. I saw that...and i agree.

It's almost like they know that now and they trade down to try to avoid making the hard decision or something.

Or that's how it seems to me.

im a little late - but a proud day for Rutgers

Denver is a joke.

Well, you have to think someone else at the bottom of the first was planning on taking Tebow or else Denver would not have felt the urgency to move up.

I bet Todd McShay is giggling to himself every pick the passes up Clausen.

ive always hated jeremy schaap. your dad was cool, but you suck

+100

I might be ok with a 4th to move up but three picks?

i like him too, hes the kind of guy you want your sister to bring home. he still will suck as a nfl qb though

Are you Bobby Knight?

Tebow will be a solid NFL QB.

Damn that Tebow guy for taking away all the Cardinal talk when its their pick :)
