Default NFL Draft
Through 3 picks in the first round, nothing unexpected...Then the Bills give up a #1 and a #2 next year to move up to 5 spots from 9 to 4 to get Sammy Watkins. Now we get to see if Manuel is the real deal.

I know Bortles going to Jacksonville #3 isn't a complete surprise but I still think it qualifies as a small one.

I had him in the 2nd tier.

Cleveland bein' Cleveland...

Passes on Carr/Bridgewater/Manziel to take a CB with the 9th overall


YOU DO NOT HAVE A QUARTERBACK!


I said it last season, it must be exhausting being a Browns fan

What's wrong with Hoyer? He looked great until the injury.

And Bridgewater will probably still be around for the #26 pick if they want him.

Through 3 games:

CMP%=59.4

YDS=1,231

TD=7

INT=6

Rating=77.4

And potentially injury prone.

If any of the 3 are there at 26 they would be nuts to pass a QB up.

They definitely need a decent backup. I think you'll see Hoyer start regardless of anyone drafted.

Cowboys worst defense in league yet they draft offense. Tough to figure

They should just let Gruden bitchslap Mel Kiper Jr. and get it over with. It's coming, just a matter of time.

Shame on AZ for not taking a gift in Carr at 27. Plenty of safeties and they already have a future pro bowler in the honey badger.

Carson is 35. Jeez.

He's not.

Cleveland needed Johnny Football in the worst way. Can't wait to see him in the league.

He'll have to rein in his game some but the guy can ball.

Agree on the talent piece. Time will tell if he can embrace the discipline. Guess that's what makes great coaches.
