NFL 2009

[ACCBiggz]

Actually surprised me by taking him.

[Blaze09]

and Seattle shocks me by drafting Curry, at least he won't have to move over to the middle now and can play his natural position

[NobBe Nobbs]

Tyson Jackson?

...interesting pick, Chiefs.

[EddieRuckus]

As a Hawks fan, definitely happy with this pick

[ACCBiggz]

Good move for Cleveland.

[Mr Evil Guy]

Whaaaaaat, Jets got Sanchez out of no where.

[ACCBiggz]

Wasn't out of nowhere, they have always been in the mix for trading up for a QB.

[VerbalPuke]

I was about to say the same thing. This moves Cleveland to 17 or 18 correct?

[Szumi]

I'm not surprised the Jets traded up for Sanchez, I'm just shocked that Mangini's new team are the ones to do the deal.

[ACCBiggz]

I was about to say the same thing. This moves Cleveland to 17 or 18 correct?

Without question, but I want to know what else they got. Picks this year, next year, player? No details on the trade yet, so I'm curious to know what else they are getting for the #5 because it's going to be significant for Sanchez. Good move for Browns, they could take Pettigrew this round and get a WR in the second.

[VerbalPuke]

3 players 1st and 2nd rounder this year to move

That is what I heard reported from the Lions forum. I don't know if it's truth or speculation.

[DMN in the House]

I hate not being able to watch the draft

Here's hoping Oakland does the smart thing and drafts a lineman. Knowing Al, though, it'll be Maclin.

[Szumi]

Cleveland gets the 1st and 2nd picks this year, and 3 of Mangini's old players.

Good deal by New York to escape that trade without having to give up their first rounder next year at least.

[ACCBiggz]

Coleman, Ratliff, Elam, 1st, and 2nd Round picks.

Great trade for Cleveland. Add depth, get picks. The holes Cleveland has are basically skill positions that can be got later in the draft. And with rumors they could still trade Edwards before the first round is over (also likely for Boldin) they could end up with another first rounder and address more needs. But we'll see how it goes.

And with Ratliff coming, possible they trade Quinn still before the day is done? I doubt it... but not sure.

I'm impressed with the move Cleveland made, there's nothing like adding extra picks, but to get players as well? That's a big help for them. Who do they have at RB right now?

Edit - Just remembered, Jamal Lewis, but he is getting older. Perhaps they go RB?

Puke - If they can trade Edwards and/or Quinn I think it's a possibility. If they can get rid of Edwards for someone's first it's possible to see them grab a WR, RB, and TE before the end of the first day. And with two first rounders you got guys like: Harvin, Heyward-Bey, Pettigrew, Nicks, Moreno, Nicks.

With the 17th pick you could even logically see them take Beanie Wells as he wants to play for Cleveland badly and as you said it'll give them a new RB to build from with Jamal. I think they'll focus elsewhere, but it's possible.

[Szumi]

If the Raiders don't draft Michael Crabtree here, Al Davis is officially the most senile man in the history of the mankind... if that hasn't already been proven.

....Are you kidding me? Really?

Aha whaaaaaat

[ACCBiggz]

Heyward-Bey, TypicalPhenom and I talked about this. He talked me into the Raiders taking them and I mentioned it as a possibility in my mock. They could have traded down and got him much lower.

It's not surprising at all. In the slightest.
