Jahvid Best will be a top 5 RB in 3 years.

Rex loves him his CB's and this team is now loaded in talent in their secondary. There was some solid talent still left on the board, but I'm loving this pick. He's physical in the press and improves the pass coverage. Excellent pick!

Dude's are ecstatic in the press conference. They loved the pick, said he was the BPA and matched their need.

Aight, so at least one of my two favorite teams (Jets/Giants) got someone who I wanted...nobody is going to be able to pass against the Jets this year.

JPP a giant and my life is meaningless.

So, you felt the same when they took Osi? If a guy has upside, but needs to develop, that is fine, if the upside comes through.

Why are Giants fans hating on JPP so much? Anyway, I'm glad the Skins drafted Trent Williams. Too bad they dont have a 2nd or 3rd rnder. Would like to grab Kindle Mays or Ducasse

I can't believe Dez Bryant dropped so much just because his mother was a drug addict and he decided to go to dinner with Deion Sanders. He is a supremely talented player, and I am extremely happy he did not end up on New England. Wilson was an amazing pick, I can't believe all those corners went before him.

it's not that i hate him because i like his upside but he's a project.

i really wanted iupati or weatherspoon

guess it's lee, washington, or bowman in the 2nd.

Wow, Kindle and Cody to the Ravens!? That's pretty scary!

[RutgersBJJ]

Ducasse better be ready to play right away. Dangerous move cutting Faneca without ever seeing Ducasse perform in training camp. What if Ducasse holds out? We would be screwed if he misses even a week or 2.

I'm not going to give too many Fs but so fat, these are my draft grades (out of 10):

Seattle 9.5:
The best LT prospect falls to them. They add the best safety left on the board at 14. Then, they get an explosive receiver at the bottom of the second round. Can't argue with any of the picks, really.

Baltimore 9:
They get a dropping pass rusher. The biggest run stuffer to come along in a long time and throw in a superathletic TE to complement their newly acquired WR

Oakland 9:
Some say they reached for McClain, but I think that's more positionally based than it is talent based. They get great value with Houston and take a chance on a massive, athletic small school tackle.

NYJ 8.5:
They had a very good corner fall in their lap and got a big, raw interior lineman (they keep trying to project Ducasse as a T but it's not happening).

Detroit 8.5:
Suh's a no-brainer. Best is a risk they had to take and they tried to address the secondary later. The thinking is sound.

New Orleans 8.5:
This team is stacked so as such, they had a little more lee-way. They come out of day 2 with a solid corner prospect, a dropping developmental prospect and a big-time project TE.

Dallas 8:
Bryant's not as much of a risk at 24 than he would have been earlier. In the second, they got an extremely safe LB.

Miami 8:
Odrick was right where he should have been. They went after an edge rusher which they've been good at developing historically. And they get a nice developmental tackle late.

NYG 8:
I really like the Joseph pick. Jason Pierre-Paul is a gamble well worth taking and they went after a safety in the 3rd. It's sound thinking

Arizona 7.5:
I really like the focus on D with a run stopper in Williams and a replacement for Dansby in Washington. I'm indifferent on the receiver.

Buffalo 7.5 :
I'm giving them credit for bucking their biggest needs in order to get the biggest talents. Like Carrington pick more that the Troupe pick.

Minnesota 7.5:
I really like the Gerhart pick. I think the Cook pick was a nice safe choice.

San Francisco 7.5 :
Love the O-line focus. I will never fault any team picking O-linemen. Mays' football IQ is questioned but they didn't waste a 1st on him and Bowman, assuming his head is on straight, might be very good.

St. Louis 7.5:
They saw a potential franchise QB and had to take him. They then picked a guy to protect him. And finished it off with a solid DB.

Tampa Bay 7.5:
Two different types of DTs that should be solid. A potential #2 type of receiver. Adressing the secondary in the 3rd round is always sound.

New England 7:
They got a few guys that dropped to them nicely (really like Gronkowski) but I wonder if at some point, they might want to look at quality over quantity.

Kansas City 7:
I like Berry and Asamoah. Don't mind the other guys but don't love 'em either.

Indianapolis 7:
Who am I to question these guys. I don't think they got game changers, but I think they're really comfortable with these types of guys.

Green Bay 7:
Bulaga falling to them is very fortunate for them. I like getting a playmaking safety in the 3rd. The second round tackle seems like a bit of a reach.

Cincinnati 7:
I like all of their picks really. I'm just not sure a TE, who runs like Gresham did, deserves to be picked that early.

Pittsburgh 6.5
Pouncey is a really safe pick. Saunders is good value. I think Worilds might be a reach.

Tennessee 6.5:
Derrick Morgan falling to them is a blessing. I like the Williams pick too.

Carolina 6.5:
I don't mind the Lafell pick. I really like the Clausen pick (most people do). The Edwards pick is a huge risk but I guess you have to give 'em credit for taking a shot.

Cleveland 6:
Haden was the right pick and McCoy was great value. The other guys are underwhelming or reaches.

Eagles 6:
Love their 1st rounder. Like their 2nd rounder. Hate their 3rd rounder

Houston 6:
I like addressing the defensive backfield. I though the other two picks were underwhelming.

Chicago 6:
One third rounder isn't much to judge by. At least they looked at the secondary.

Washington 6:
They might have gotten the best tackle in the draft (it's possible). I just think that there's no chance they got the best left tackle in the draft and at #4, you'd hope the guy's better on the left side.

Atlanta 5.5:
I don't see much value outside of Weatherspoon. I won't fault them for getting an O-lineman though. Peters seems like a reach (maybe they caught up in the DT frenzy).

Denver 5.5:
The later picks are actually quite solid. I really don't mind Thomas. I don't think Tebow's as big of a draft risk as people make him out to be. Even if he's a colossal failure at QB, he should be a decent H-back or WR. At worst, the guy should be ok on special teams.

San Diego 5:
I like Matthews but wonder if they really needed to move that far up to get him. I really don't care for Butler.

Jacksonville 4:
They get a borderline first rounder, more likely second rounder at #10. Even if the guy is the 10th best player in the draft, you have to ask why they couldn't trade down and get him.
