Same goes for the Steelers and Pats.


and Ravens... and Seahawks... and 49ers...

After blowing 2 picks of ours, looking at them makes me wish we could draft like them.


Funny you mention the Seahawks. Rumor had it, our first choice was Bruce Irvin at #19 last year but the Seahawks nabbed him much earlier in what was panned as a huge reach. But it turned out to be decent value where they took him. The point is, before declaring picks "blown", why don't we see them play first.

You're probably right. I shouldn't judge so quickly. I meant that there were many other players (imo) still there that had a much higher ceiling.
