Houston says they are taking Mario Williams over Reggie Bush!!!!!!!

Less than an hour til draft time!!!!

i hope reggie is around till pick #30. the colts need a new runningback!:p

yeah i was surprised with houston. they could have taken reggie and aranged a trade to get more for him. now the ball is in the saints corner. they have a decent running back, so maybe they will trade the #2 pick. i think greenbay sittin in #5 should think about trading up to get reggie bush. that would be a huge score for the packers...

I live in Indiana (but am a Bears fan) why the hell didn't the Colts re-sign James? All my Cots fan friends are pissed about that one.

ive been a colts fan for a LONG time, but i liked the move to let james go. he is one of the best RB's in the business, but his contract would have taken so much money that one of the recievers would have to be released. i think wayne, stokley and harrison are each more valuable than james. they work perfectly with manning. the running back now for the colts is Dominic Rhodes, and i have said all last year that he would be a decent back if we had to rely on him. so i think it was a smart move by the colts to let james go so that they can use more money on signing and re-signing defensive players...

I bet the Lions pick another Wide Reciever...:(

I know my Bears will. You think the Lions would draft a QB, but that makes too much sense.

Or they draft a punter...

If they do that, I'm moving to Canada.

:p yeah, they need it so bad...

How the hell do you justify giving up Bush for Williams?

That occured. Then went Bush now Young.

It was a good call.

The Saints pick isn't a bad one either, considering McAlister is coming off knee surgery. So does Leinart fall to the Packers at 5? Or will the Jets take him?

if he is there when the pack's pick comes up, they will take him...

i think jets take d'brickishaw..

The New York Jets select:


Ferguson OT/ VA

The Packers will take him.
That would be a hell of a steal, especially with Favre on his last legs.

the pack better take leinart. he is hella lot better than aaron rogers. that guy is a joke in my opinion...

I'd forgotten that they had him. Shit, Leinart could easily fall all the way to Oakland.

They really need him, but as a Bears fan I hope they take rogers instead.

I hate Oakland too

omg, they are saying leinart may go all the way to #10 with arizona. could you imagine the cardinals with that offense if they had leinart??

The Packers select:

A.J. Hawk OLB/OSU

Who does Oakland have for QB's right now? Didn't they sign Aaron Brooks? He's not the long term answer--too inconsistent--but he could be a good placeholder for Leinart. If I recall correctly, they didn't invest too much in Brooks.

49ers Select:

Vernon Davis TE/Maryland

That didn't take long. He must have been their number one guy.

yeah they signed aaron brooks. i dont think they are interested in picking a QB...

Maybe not, but when a QB of Leinart's quality falls to your spot unexpectedly, you have to think long and hard about it, especially if you don't have a star already in the spot.

Oakland selects:

Michael Huff S/Texas

they took michael huff. i was hoping the colts would get him, but he went early...:(

Okay, I give up on trying to figure this thing out. :p

Possible trade between Buffalo and Denver.

Seems a little early for him to go off the board.

Lions Select:

Ernie Sims LB/FSU

arizona better take leinhart or cutler...

They're fools if they take Cutler. Leinart is a much more proven commodity.

Arizona Selects:

Matt Leinhart QB/USC

That didn't take long. I'll bet they had their card filled out just in case and walked straight up there.

Arizona Selects:

Matt Leinhart QB/USC
wow, that just shows how much of a moron Mel Kiper Jr is. His predictions were utter BS.

Leinhart is gonna work very well in Arizona. That is if they can get there Offensive Line working.

I know this is off topic, but my fantasy team is going to kill yours Nazz!!!!

BroncosSelect:

Jay Cutler QB/Vanderbilt

Traded to Denver for something. Do not know what it was about. An interesting pick.

I wouldn't be surprised, considering how little effort I've put into the thing. I'm amazed that I'm third in the league.

Of course, you realize that if I do beat you in the head to head, that I have to gloat about it publicly now, right? :D

Baltimore Picks:

Haloti Ngata DT/Oregon

Cleveland and Baltimore traded picks.
