i think Whitner is a good player......but he is so far below Polamalu and Reed that he is not worth Top Ten safety money. He is NOT an impact player and has HORRIBLE hands for interceptions. i say pass and save the $6.0mil/yr he is probably seeking.

do over: Round pick player #1 - 12 - Ryan Clady OT (den) Pro Bowler #2 - 49 - Desean Jackson WR (phi) Pro Bowler #3 - 73 - Jamaal Charles RB (kc) Pro Bowler

buy a jersey of someone already on wall of fame.......never goes out of style.

lol....4 of their last 5 first round picks made the Pro Bowl.....they have averaged 12 wins a season for last 7 years......i'd say they've been drafting pretty good.

Most importantly in the short term, Gans said that the same three judges who handled the NFL’s motion for a temporary stay will handle the motion for a full stay until the appeal is resolved. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/05/02/the-same-judges-will-handle-the-motion-for-a-stay/

#1- there was no way to address "ALL" of our needs in one draft. #2- many pundits have given kudo's to the success of this years Bills draft. Todd McShay picked the Bills as his #1 team after day 2. Rich Gosselin from the Dallas Morning News gave the the Bills his one and only A+ Grade. i think the bills did extremely well. my only second guessing was passing on Ryan Mallet in round 3, but hey, the ILB they picked is gonna be a very good player.

laughter will make you live longer......this forum is good for your health.

minor..... but funny.... While Newton may win the job, one thing Clausen won’t be surrendering as easily is the jersey number that Newton wore at Auburn. “It’s mine right now,” said Clausen, who wears number 2. “We’ll see what happens.” Asked whether the rights to the jersey can be purchased, Clausen reportedly smiled and said, “We’ll see what happens.” It would be funny if Newton offers him a laptop for it. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/05/01/jimmy-clausen-not-giving-up-his-job-or-his-number-easily/ http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/09000d5d81f9f170/article/clausen-not-ready-to-hand-newton-no-2-jersey-or-no-1-job?module=HP_headlines

Brady says he plans to play 10 more years: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/30/brady-says-he-plans-to-play-10-more-years/

i agree

we agree on 4 of 5....lol.....as far as the patriots go......they used 5 picks in the first three rounds and don't forget they picked up an extra second rounder this year and a first rounder next year from new orleans for their #27 pick AND an extra second rounder for next year from the raiders for a third and fourth this year. plus i happen to think Ryan Mallet will be the best QB from this class. they now have two #1's and two #2's for 2012 and they are not done.

the drafts that stood out to me were... Detroit, Giants, Bengals, Patriots and Bills.

NFL officially reinstates lockout. It only seems fitting in this insane offseason that this announcement would be made after 11 p.m. ET after day two of the NFL Draft. The league can’t let fans enjoy even one weekend. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/29/nfl-officially-reinstates-lockout/ One judge wasn’t happy with temporary stay http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/04/30/one-judge-not-happy-with-temporary-stay/

Marcus Cannon, OL, TCU, 6-5, 358 Two-time All-Mountain West Conference selection. Must keep his weight down. He played tackle in college but might be best as a guard in the NFL.

barring injury...new england will flip this player for a first or second rounder like they did Cassell. Brady will be playing for another 6 years.

Ryan Mallet will wind up being the top QB in this class.

it's official.... Appeals court restores NFL lockout http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6451701
