    I don't, either. Nor do most of the people I talk to who know an awful lot about the draft. Typical Belicheck "who the **** is that?" DB pick.

    I missed the 4th round cause I was travelling back from Southampton, but watched every other one.

    I just looked at the draft using my NFL13 app, it had like a live draft time line on it. It saved me from listening to the crap talking and ads every 5mins.

    All in all very happy with the Eagles draft haul. Two players who should come in and play a large percentage of snaps straight away in Johnson and Ertz. Our O-Line is much maligned because of how woeful it was last year with us losing 4/5 starters and then 2 back-ups to injury, but in reality Peters and Mathis you can make strong arguments for being the best players at their position in the league, and Todd Herremans is a solid player. Add Lane Johnson to that and if we have a bit more luck with injury our O-Line could go from worst to first, as they say.

    On top of that picked up some nice rotational players for the D-Line and backfield, couple of big bodies to help us transition to 3-4 and Jordan Poyer looks like he has good speed and ball-skills and could play at nickel early on. And I've heard and seen some promising things about Earl Wolff at strong-safety, looks a great athlete although a little under-sized.

    Matt Barkley I can take or leave, but not bad value for a fourth rounder so I can't complain really, but not sure he offers a great deal more than Foles.

    Feel more excited about this coming season than I have the past couple, when I just felt nervous. We might make it to 5-11 this year!

    I really like the Cardinals draft. Lots of good players, solid improvements - especially love Cooper, not at 7, but he's a mancrush.

    I would've preferred Seahawks to have sorted out the O-Line, Giacomini is a liability at RT especially and then Armstead went in the third round after we passed up on him at the end of Round 2. But all in all, reasonably satisfied with our draft, and hopefully Carroll/Schneider prove once again why they draft so well. Jesse Williams and Ty Powell especially, great value for a 5th and 7th round pick respectively.

    Same, I loved their first four picks, although I'm not sold on Mathieu but it's a good situation for him to go into with Peterson to hopefully guide him, and they got some good value late as well.

    Jesse Williams is a great pick if his knee works out. Very similar to our Josh Chapman pick from last year.
