First Round Quick Thoughts.

Cowboys Pick- I am happy, it has grown old watching fat slow lineman missing people and Romo getting killed.  If Rick Gosselin says T Smith is the 7th best player in the draft I have to think it is a great pick for the Boys.

Saints-Great first round -  Jordan and Ingram fall to them.   Suddenly my prediction two years ago that they would win the Super Bowl that year and this upcoming year looks a little better.  Sean P is truly smarter than the others.

Titans-Locker- During the brief interviews with Locker he showed the personality that coaches love.     

Panthers- Newton was the best player in college and if your going to draft one to play early it might as well be a physical freak like Sham Cam.

Lions- Suh and Fairley together is just nuts.  I would draft only O Lineman for the rest of this draft.  If they get Stafford upright they will be something to watch.

Falcons- I love Julio, but that is a lot to give up.  Now or never for the media darling Ryan.

May favorite moment of the night may have been Saban's shock and wonder of the Seahawks drafting his former left tackle. 

Ponder to Vikes,  I have loved Ponder for a couple of years, but he just cannot stay healthy.

Picks I do not like.  49ers, Titans, Vikes,  Kansas City.

S, you are right, why do NFL teams draft this QB's so high?

Agree with the boys and Saints picks. Actually I am very pleased with the Saints.

good- Cards with Peterson, Saints, Lions (they look scary on paper- the other lineman shoulds help keep Fairly motivated), Browns- not the pick but obtaining the farm from the Facons- team needs talent and one receiver was not the answer

Not so good- titans, Vikes, Seahawks, 49ers, and for my sake Panthers I would not have mae the pick.

I am intrigued by Gabbert- photographic memory and will have a year to develop. Low pressure city. Possible downside- who is the OC and QB coach?
