I'm rooting for my Boy Darren Sproles...Go STATE!!! hehe...but seriously he is one of the most underrated backs in the draft.
I don't mean that he should go 1st round...or maybe even 2nd round, but he is one hell of a runner

I hope that Brown drops to the #6 pick. I know the Titans could use defensive help but a good running back that can pound the rock and move the clock is pretty much a defender. Chris Brown is good but I dunno about his durability after last season.

Dallas was not going to draft Willaims Parcells wanted to get a pass rusher.

I knew they wouldn't, it was just wishful thinking. The only guy we have that can catch the fricken ball is Keyshawn. (At WR that is) I think if rogers falls down to 20th (doubt he will, but he might) Dallas should take a chance on him there cause Bledsoe only has a couple years left in him at most, and he hasn't looked so hot the last few years. We need a franchise QB.

Go Niners. Super Bowl MVP Smith in 2006!

Niners should take Maurice Clarett in the third or fourth round just to create some buzz and intrigue during training camp.

As a Lions fans, I was glad to see they took Williams with the 10th pick.

He may wind up being the steal of the draft. And the Lions offense is going to be pretty damned nice in the future with R. Williams, Rogers, M. Williams and Kevin Jones.

With the 42nd selection in the 2005 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions select Adrian McPherson, Quarterback from Florida State.

Please let this happen...

As a Rams fan, I absoloutely hate the Packers. The Lions are one of those teams that I want to see thrive, and this can be the key, cause Harrington is garbage.
