stop me if you've heard this before but the vikings move down again, picking up two fifth rounders

that is 6 trades and 4 players drafted so far, 7 picks left today (as of now)

i like the Redskins first 3 picks the Safety they took in round 4 would have been available in round 7 or a ndfa as his tape showed lots of weakness and few strengths

the Steelers getting Joshua Dobbs in round 4 was perfect for them

If he's there when the Texans are on the clock, they'll probably swipe him up.

They love them some Clemson Tigers ;)
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

This Cowboys fan is absolutely ecstatic with the 2017 draft. We (BJJ, Mr. B and myself) have been screaming for them to draft and fix the defensive side of the ball for awhile. We shall see if they "fixed" the Defense. But - they damn sure drafted Defense.

I can't believe Malachi Dupree who was projected as a 2nd or 3rd round pick, fell to the 7th round? A 5 star recruit out of high school should not fall to the 7th round EVER, EVER, EVER. There's talk about his struggles or inconsistency at times, But LSU had a ton of problems with the Quarterback position. Its unbelievable Dupree fell to pick 247 by the Green Bay Packers. Now Dupree gets to catch passes from Aaron Rodgers, WATCH OUT.

I don't drink it as often these days because I've been spoiled by all the new craft beer selections that catch my eye and taste buds, but it's still a never fail go-to choice. The Strawberry Blonde is quite good, I enjoy it.

So how'd the Raiders do overall? Or 2 soon 2 tell?

EDIT: I don't follow NCAA football at all up here in London, Ontario Canada.

EDIT 2: I did read this: http://www.espn.com/blog/oakland-raiders/post/_/id/18223/oakland-raiders-2017-draft-picks-analysis-for-every-selection
