Plain and simple. Do you feel your team had a good draft? Meaning was it what you had hoped/expected or did they at the very least adequately address some of your needs?

my answer for the boys is a resounding NO.....

Absolutely.

Kalil, Harrison Smith, and Josh Robinson are spot on needs filled with stud players.

We got the WRs from Arkansas who have a lot of potential, and a kicker who has the potential to be a stud.

With the other picks being depth and rotational guys, I'm very satisfied. There are a couple things I would've like to see Spielman do, but overall, I'm happy with his first draft as the offical GM.

Rounds 2-7 were perfect for my liking and hit important needs for the Jets. 2 safeties and 1 LB who can cover TEs. Added speed on defense and added speed to WR and a legit deep threat.

Round 1 was a colossal fail and could kill the draft.

Absolutely love it. I still wish we took DeCastro, but Zeitler should be great. Overall we filled our needs with great players

Absolutely, the Vikes deserve at the least, an A-.

I saw three huge needs:

LT (Kalil)
Secondary (Smith, Blanton and Robinson)
Big play WR (Wright/Childs)

MN filled these needs with great value picks, and good overall players. The only thing I hated was taking a Kicker in round 6 when the team is short on DT, LB and OT depth.

What I posted in our forum.

I like what we did.

Upshaw was the best player on one of the best defenses in college football history.

I like Pierce. Physical down hill runner with some nice shiftyness.

Gradkowski is one where I'm just blindly going to put my faith in Ozzie. I think he was the second center off the board and his coach raves about him.

Thompson and Jackson are both gifted athletes who can make plays in the passing game and are good tacklers. With almost all the DBs in the draft it was either one thing or the other. Or they had below average athleticism. And Jackson is a nice return man. Worst case scenario, both of these guys help our special teams a lot right from the get go.

Streeter was an underachiever, but he's got potential. So does Osemele.

I've only know of DeAngelo Tyson. I think I've read before that he was good. I watched a lot of Georgia games but I never really noticed him.

Agreed. I think rounds 2-7 were so great that even if Coples becomes Gholston, this can still be a good draft.

I think the Lions draft tells you they got BPA. Broyles is not an immediate need and neither was OT.

But they saw ythe value of Reiff and Broyles. They feel Broyles would have been gone already had he been healthy and Reiff was 1 of 2 guys who they felt were real LTs. Ronnell is a passsrusher but they felt he slipped so far they dunno how they will use him. They just know he is good.

Schwartz said the later part of the draft the players talent level fall off so they draft for measurables (upside) and scheme fit.

I'm happy with how things went for the Panthers. There was a trade in the mid-rounds that I wasn't crazy about; but if the player becomes what he's advertised to be...trading that pick will be the least of my worries.

Extremely.

Not getting put in "top three" contention in other threads much, but GB got value across the board:

two guys in the top 30 value wise in Perry and Worthy, one of the best interior rushers in the draft in Mike Daniels, one of the best ball-skills CB's in the draft in Heyward, good coverage LB in Manning, safety with nice measurables in McMillan, and then an OT that would have gone much higher before a shoulder injury and a QB with a big time arm in BJ Coleman.


Also signed Dale Moss as a UDFA who has crazy measurables. Really satisfied with what Green Bay did, the pass rush next season looks to be much more 2010 than 2011. I liked every pick.

Hell yes! Very Happy

Satisfied is the right word, more like ecstatic. DeCastro, Adams, and Ta'amu were great picks. Still can't believe DeCastro fell into their laps. He'll be another Alan Faneca. If Adams can grow up which he told the Steelers he will do then he's a steal in the second and to trade up for Ta'amu in the fourth was excellent as he is the future starting NT. Rainey gives the team a change of pace breakaway threat at RB and can be an asset on special teams and play WR too.

Not a fan of the Spence pick but the Steelers definitely deserve an A for their draft.

Yes, i'm satisfied.

-I like that we added playmakers and speed to our offense. We have the ability to gain yards in big chunks, and our redzone and 3rd down woes should be improved

-An intriguing option at the only position where we don't have a clear starter (RG) to compete with last year's 5th round pick

-Depth at other positions we were lacking in

-Added 3 future picks including a 3 from Carolina, allows us to maneuver around next year

I'd give us around a B/B+ with potential to be higher.

I LOVE what the Rams did. Starting with the RG3 trade down and the trade down with the Cowboys. The Rams traded down with the Boys and still got the better CB if he stays out of trouble. Also, gained 1st rounders in the next 2 drafts.

RD 1 Brockers - man-beast who will be an immediate upgrade at DT. Huge run stopper, something the Rams haven't had since dinosaurs walked the earth. A

RD 2- WR Quick. Huge, huge upside. 6'4, 220 lbs. A true #1 potential B

RD 2- CB Jenkins. Elite CB. Best CB in the draft A

RD 2- RB Pead. Filled a huge need with a high upside RB to spell SJax. Dangerous receiver out of the back field too. Home run threat B

RD 3- CB Johnson. Big, athletic CB who had 1st round grade by many. A

RD 4- WR Gives. Explosive, great route runner. HR threat. Great pick A

RD 5- OG-OT Watkins. Massive guard. Fills a big need C

RD 6 - Zuerlein - booming foot. Rams cut Brown, saved 2.5 mill B

RD 7 - OLB Meh

RD 7 - RB - good RB with upside.

I think the Rams killed this draft.

Tony Bergstrom, OT, Utah
Miles Burris, OLB, San Diego State
Jack Crawford, DE, Penn State
Juron Criner, WR, Arizona
Christo Bilukidi, DE, Georgia State
Nathan Stupar, OLB, Penn State

Given the picks Reggie had I am very happy with what he achieved. He added some pass rushers with excellent potential (if the explosive power measurements are to be believed anyway) and a WR who was a steal and offers something different to rest of Raiders WR corp. I'm not so high on the first pick of Bergstrom, but if he does grade out as the best pure ZBS OG in the class then I suppose that is good value.

Overall give the draft a B to B+
