ssigman is just really nicessigman is just really nicessigman is just really nicessigman is just really nice
1. i liked what the eagles and skins did..for the eagles, they were able to get a 1st next year and still get a player who had a 1st round grade in jackson...he'll give them a much needed boost in the return game...same with the skins...to get 2 wr's that at one point or another were the top rated guys is a nice move...adding davis to the mix and campbell now has some nice weapons

2. i didn't like the move by the jags...

3. i really thought the boys would take him..i think jones was just set on jones from the get go...and the lions are a disaster...they took a RT over him...matt millen should gm the jets cause they equally suck

4. i threw up when i saw the ainge selection...i will say it was a pick we added from a trade but i could name 10 guys right now i woulda taken before him...i guess we felt like its been to long since we drafted a tennesse guy

here's my overall impressions of the draft for the AFC...i'll do NFC later

AFC East(in order of best draft)

1. dolphins...i really liked there draft...they will suck this year but bill knows what he's doing and if he stays for more than 3 years, the dolphins will be good again..yuck B+

2. bills...i love there 1st three picks..i was hoping we moved up to 30 to take a wr and hardy was one i liked..ellis if he can act like a human could be a steal in round 3 B+

3. tie: Jets and Pats
a. Pats - Mayo was a reach...he's 240 or so pounds but he lacks the speed sideline to sideline...the rest have potential but i don't see them being instant starters..i guess you don't need many when you go 19-0..i mean 18-1 haha C-

b. Jets -i said it from day 1...i don't like gholston..he's going to be a bust...so it was destiny that we took him...i was very disappointed and we stink...i don't think we shoulda moved up for keller...i hope i'm wrong on this but he's a pure catching TE..he looks more like a wr than te...lowery in 4 is fine...don't know much about him but we needed a CB..we missed justin king by1 pick..i woulda liked him...ainge is useless...i know nothing of henry the wr from kansas or the ol from nebraska in 7...why not draft arrington in 6??? C-

as for free agents...the following guys i want them to sign
Pedro Sosa- RU Guard
Erin Henderson - OLB/ILB Maryland - how did he not get drafted???????
Adarius Bowman - WR OK State...tall but slow..undisciplined as well..but i like his size
Ron Girault - RU S we need more RU guys in the league
Eric Foster - RU DT would have to play DE but the guy is a leader and played well despite being 250 lbs playing DT

AFC North

1. tie: Ravens and Browns

a. Ravens - they got a qb and pay him #18 money and not #8 money..they got Ray Rice so they are smart..Ozzie knows how to draft...Zbikowski, Gooden, Cousins, Nakamura will all be starters in the future..right now they add great depth B+

b. Browns - they added Rogers and Williams and despite losing there first rounder..they added a real sleeper in Bell and Rucker gives them another weapon..Hubbard is a big WR that could develop in a few years to take Jurevicious's place..i really liked the day two pick....B+

2. Steeler - they got the #2 RB imo at 23..then add a huge wr that big ben wanted..they just needed to add lineman...tony hills might help there but they didn't do enough...still the first two picks means they get a B-

3. Cinci - Rivers is gonna instantly help...but simpson will need a few years...which doesn't help if ocho cinco goes..sims is a big body and a nice pickup...collins and shirley add much needed depth...urrutia is hit or miss but i like that they are taking a chance C+

AFC South

1. Colts - it wasn't flashy but they did a good job of continuing to get TEs..Tamme will take up where utecht left off and they won't even miss a beat..i don't think hart is good enough but now that he's on the colts, he'll be amazing B

2. Houston - this is hit or miss..they reached for brown but david carr will tell you they need a line..the best were gone so it was smart moving down..slaton gives them speed and youth...adibi will be a starter in the future...if barber hits like his brother, he'll be a good safety C+

3. tie: Jags/Titans

a. Jags -Harvey was overhyped..Groves is hit or miss...but i like the trae williams and chauncey washington picks later....C-

b. Titans -do they want vince young to fail? every receiver on the board and you take Chris Johnson?? did you want to mimick the raiders and have 44 rb's?? lavelle hawkins in 4 is good but who are the rest? C-

AFC West

1. KC - Dorsey, Albert, Flowers and Charles...immediate help and starters sans Charles who will help spelling Johnson...Cottam will learn from the greatest and they got alot of help that they desperately needed...f herm but nice draft B+

2. Chargers - they didn't need much in terms of filling out the roster...i like cason and he'll be a good 3rd CB for now...all hester did was start for lsu and run for over 1k yards...and he's white and we don't see many white rb's...dejuan tribble will more depth and could be a real sleeper C

3. Denver - i don't love there draft..i'm sure torain will run for 1k yards since all denver rb's do that...royal didn't do much at VT so going that early is more devin hester effect than anything C-

4. Raiders - F
