I like what the bears did and I like if palmer can do good those receivers like warrick can finially get the ball and open it up for dillion to rush for even more yards.

Lions did a good job so far.

i also9 think the lions did. rogers, bailey, and redding.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but for now it looks like I might have to quit calling the Bengals the Bungles.

I'm going to have to go with the Lions, might be hearing Harrington to Rogers real soon...

it's much too early to say the Bengals made the right choice.

They need good offensive line, and

Although Johnson was a good pick, Texans need a cuple studs on the O line badly... I love that commercial ESPN ran before the draft as a draft promo with the Texans in it!

COWBOYS,WERE GOING TO WIN BY DEFENSE,AND A NEW CENTER WILL HELP THE PASS GAME (A LITTLE) UNTIL ONE OF ARE QB'S STEP UP.

Hells no! Giants have had the best draft. Don't laugh either. These "projects" (Osi and Visante) are diamonds in the rough.

I believe that Kansas did a good one picking up Larry Johnson. I am looking forward for some good to come out of him. I would have liked to see him go to the Patriots though. hehe. But even though he is not with them I am still looking to pick up his cards. So if anyone has any of his cards then I am looking to trade for them. :)

P.S. I will also be looking for some cards of Bethel Johnson drafted by the Pats. :)

Waste of a pick IMO. First, need I remind everyone of all the BUST RB's that come out of Penn State? Larry Johnson didn't show up in any of PSU's 3 toughest games. Also, who does KC have as their RB? I think his name is something like Priest Holmes or something? He's only the best RB in the league and still VERY young at 29. The LEAST of KC's worries was the running game and they go and draft Larry... I'd be pissed if I was a KC fan!

I don't agree. Either way, the Big Ten is a tough conference, and Larry Johnson is easily one of the best running backs in the nation (not to mention a Heisman candidate). The stats speak for themselves.

Just because the Big 10 is a power conference doesn't exactly make them a tough conference. This past year IMO was not a good one for the Big 10. Sure they won the National Championship and had 3 teams in the top10 for a good part of the year, but PSU wasn't that good this past year, Michigan was good but nothing great, same with Iowa, and Ohio State was a good team that could win games. Other than those 4, the Big 10 was BAD last year.

Here are Larry's stats per game from last year :

DATE & OPP RESULT ATT YDS
8/31 C Florida Win 27-24 18 92
9/14 Nebraska Win 40-7 19 123
9/21 La Tech Win 49-17 17 147
9/28 Iowa Loss 42-35 (OT) 18 68
10/5 @Wisconsin Win 34-31 14 111
10/12 @Michigan Loss 27-24 (OT) 17 78
10/19 N'western Win 49-0 23 257
10/26 @Ohio St Loss 13-7 16 66
11/2 Illinois Win 18-7 31 279
11/9 Virginia Win 35-14 31 188
11/16 @Indiana Win 58-25 28 327
11/23 Mich St Win 61-7 19 279

So he had a TOTAL of 212 yards in the 3 games against Ohio State, Michigan, and Iowa. He only had good games against CRAPPY teams. Just because you are one of the best RB's in the nation doesn't mean you're good. Hell, a guy who blew his knee out 5 months ago got drafted ahead of him!

This also still doesn't cover the point of why the hell did KC draft Larry Johnson when they have Priest Holmes?

Now with why KC picked him up while they have Holmes I can't understand that. KC did not need him but I am sure they will find some good use of him. I am also not saying that Larry Johnson was or is the best RB out of the draft but I would say he is up there. Either way anyone looks at it, I am still gonna collect his cards. So if you got em then I want em. :)

When i get some of Larry Johnson's cards i will let you know Richie

well, I was hoping Niners would spend all their picks on defense, bc/ that is the only way to compete against the Rams.

But they picked an OT from Stanford in the 1st round, sheesh!!!

And the Raiders spent one of their picks on a WR --- gimme a break! Raiders need all the defensive players they can get, after what they showed in last Year's Super Bowl

Yeah but with Rice and Brown on their last legs and Porter although showing a ton of potential hasn't shown that he can be a #1 guy, they're thinking the future. Smart move I think... who wouldn't you want more to understudy a rookie than Timmy Brown and Jerry Rice?

I've got to come to Iggy's defense here. I thought that KC could have done better with the pick.

Their defense was horrible last year and unless they think Holmes is going to get hurt I don't have a clue why they would pick Johnson.

I'd be mad if I were a fan and again the team loses this year because of a bad defense.

I agree the chiefs needed to boost their Defence. Why they drafted a RB i don't know!

To get this back on subject now that the draft is complete i think these three teams had a great draft:

1. Lions
2. Ravens
3. Bengals

lions hands down rogers holt bailey redding

The Chiefs love RBs. They've drafted tons of RBs in the past few years (and most are flops).

Tim

Chiefs drafted a RB as insurance in case Priest Holmes doesn't return to his form from hip injury --- those can be devastating!
