Oakland had a nice draft, as did Cleveland and New England

I'd say it comes down to SF and Cleveland.

Cleveland got a franchise QB (Quinn) and a franchise LT (Thomas) as well as a solid CB in Eric Wright from UNLV. Maybe they payed a little too much to get Quinn, but when you consider that they would probably have used their pick next year on a QB anyway this definatly makes sense for them. Getting 2 top 10 talents is quite a day for them in and of itself.

San Francisco didn't get any flashy players, but Willis and Staley should be able to contribute right out of the gate. I wouldn't be surprised to see both of them starting in the season opener (Staley probably starts at RT then moves over to LT later in the season). I honestly thought Staley was a better T prospect than Levi Brown, who went in the top 5. I prefer Staley's speed and work ethic to Brown's massive size. They also picked up Darell Jackson, who will be our #1 WR, for a 4th round pick. So, they nabbed 3 potential starters for a team that will contend for the playoffs - definatly a good draft.

I really like WIllis, really really.

I think SF gave up to much for Staley. I don't think they are going to be as good as they seem to.

i like the browns and niners. browns for one got the top notch lineman. then a familiar QB. and then picked up an under the radar defensive back from USC/unlv. theyre headed in the right direction
