I saw Tennessee and I thought it was Eric Young. Crazy pick, but atleast we got a solid QB project... I don't like taking him over Goff and some others though.

Grandfather Donny played for the Red Sox, Father Danny played for the Celtics and is now their GM, and he now plays for a New York team.

Can't make that up. I'm a little uneasy on this pick. The guy's injured a lot.

...And the Giants take Goff.

Yeah as I said, I would have rather had Goff... you can always a third string QB somewhere, and that's most likely what Ainge will be for a few years.

Tanny said they had him rated as a round 3 player, they loved his value.

We needed Goff more than him, but I'm not too upet about the pick. He' a project guy who could play this year depending on KC

He might be a very good QB for the jets one day, but for Mike T to say he "loved his value" and that he is "a third round pick" and that why they took him, is flat out ridiculous. A QB is the centerpiece franchise are built around, whats the point of picking the best player available if its a QB?

You take him because he is the highest rated player on your board and you know he'll be gone next time around.
