What do you think the biggest shock was of the football drafts today?
463218
this draft was full of great picks, bad picks, and surprise picks and players getting drafted high and players falling. \nNow i feel we are all in agreement when i say the Texans don't want to win football games, because they passed on Reggie bush. how can you say no to that. so damn stupid, and the whitner pick for bills was high, but if the bills took bunkley or ngata those two players where not good enough to go 8 eighter, and the lions said if the bills didn't take him they would of taken whitner so the bills did good there, and about mccargo Marv Levy saw someone he liked and got him, yes they could of waited, but who knows what could of happened and both of those players will start next year so those are both good picks. \n\ni say the surprise picks of the draft was tambi Hali for the chiefs and the Mathias kiwanuka for the giants, Hali isn't that bad seeing Jared Allen is the best dlinemen for the chiefs, and you can never have enough depth, but the giants had so many other holes, OT,OG,WR,DL,LB,DB de is the last thing they needed with osi, and stranhan i know mike is getting old, but they just needed so much more then Mathias kiwanuka they had justice,ryans,Howard,Jackson,countless numbers of DB i just think they messed up bad there.

The unexpected I assume.  We just picked him up.  Should be an interesting game

Yeah, that's pretty impressive. I think it's really interesting that he threw for more yards and TDs in his freshman year than in his senior year. The best stat there is the 5 picks, that's simply amazing.

The Redskins do not have a first round pick this draft. They would be 22nd but they traded their first round pick last year to Broncos in order to get Jason Campbell. By the way, I love the Redskins.

Obviously, the Trojan players were overrated. Reggie Bush went 2nd, Matt Leinart went 10th, and LenDale White went 45th. This shows that teams are finding faults in each player that NFL experts aren't finding. The ignorance of these faults makes each player look like they're amazing. But once teams start pointing out each little fault of each player, the player becomes less likely to be picked high in the draft. Each team's GM must have found something wrong in each player which is why they were picked a lot lower than expected.

With Matt Leinart to help with the dangerous offense, along with another weapon in Leonard Pope, the Arizona Cardinals had the best draft.  They also got Deuce Latui to help with the Offensive Line.\n\nThe worst draft would probably be the 49ers because with the 6th pick, to a team that needs help at almost every position, drafting a tight end was a mistake.  They need receiving, rushing, and defensive help before they start looking to a tight end.

Pretty amazing that Colston was the 2nd to last draft pick this year.  Sure makes the Stallworth trade to Philly look like a great deal.  Drew Brees was definitely the best free agent QB signing of the off season.

Arizona and not just because of matt lienart. getting pope in the 3rd round and big gabe watson in the 4th was huge. After looking at houstons draft it really was quite good i think they got the #1 DE and the #1 OLB in the draft. that will really help the D.

Troy Smith, as of right now, is probably not even worth a 2nd-round pick.  His football IQ is in question, his deep-ball his sketchy and his height is obviously a major question mark.  It's ridiculous hearing that he should be in the 1st round, let alone #1 check any draft website and find that out.\n\nI'm going to say that Joe Thomas is the best OLiner but I think that OAK still ends out being the #1 pick as I think ARZ will win a few worthless games.\n\nBrady Quinn, though, is the top prospect and if OAK does indeed get the #1 pick expect either him or the great WR from Ga Tech, Calvin Johnson.  Don't forget about Adrian Peterson either.\n\nAlso, McFadden is a SOPH.

Too much hype. That's the way it is for MOST that are  projected to go #1 in the draft.

Actually, Mike Mayock (of the NFL Network) correctly predicted the Bills drafting of Whitner as their first, 1st-round pick.\n\nI'm going to say they will persue Sam Baker, an OT from the University of Southern California.  Their main issue right now, outside of maybe QB, is the lack of speed against the pass-rush and the combination of strength/speed that Baker provides is great.

This is a great question that has got some horrid answers.  Let me first address some of the stupid answers....\n\n1. Ricky Williams to Miami, maybe not the best trade, but they did not give up much to get him.\n\n2. The Hershal Walker trade, I never realized both Emmit and Irvin were in this trade, that is quite a deal, but Hershal was a pretty good player.  This might be my pick for worst trade.\n\n3. Maurice Clarett?  Are you a complete idiot, first of all it was not a trade, the Broncos drafted him, then it was not even a high profile draft pick, lastly Clarett agreed to a no commitment financial salary, if he didn't perform he did not get paid.  Not a bad chance to take on someone that dominated the college football scene for a year.  Too bad more coaches don't take a chance like this!\n\n4. Ryan Leaf, again a draft pick, not a trade. \n\n5. Oh I like the Favre comment too, that may be the best!\n\nWhat is shaping up to be the WORST trade of all time was what the NYG gave up for Eli Manning....Phillip Rivers (starting to light it up), Marriam (have to see how he does off steoroids, but on was the best young LB in football), and their kicker Naeding (pretty clutch).  What has Eli done?  lost to his bro in an overly hyped game and made an ESPN commercial with his brother.

Erm, not sure what you mean about the Bills finally waking up, Moon? They did NOT conduct the greatest draft I've ever seen, though they did improve a bit on day two. Still, they made several reach picks and threw away a draft pick unnecessarily. They also passed up a chance to solve our quarterback problem by grabbing Matt Leinart when he dropped into their laps with the #8 overall pick. So, trust me, many of us in Bills country are pretty upset about this draft.\n\nAs to what I see happening next, well, the mini camp in May will introduce all the new draftees and hopefully begin the competition for quarterback (which will be settled in training camp and the preseason, assuming we can identify a starting QB at all). The Bills need a lot of work and I am still not happy with the decision to hire Dick Jauron over Mike Sherman as head coach, so this upcoming season (perhaps several seasons, alas) isn't looking too good. I'll keep you posted, ok? :)

The thing that hurt this guy was that he switched from QB to receiver so much he hurt himself that is really his only weakness he has good speed power and quickness but he is gonna have to learn a difficult position in the NFL and that is wide receiver!! I predict that he will be picked up right at the start of training camp there will be alot of teams scrambling for skilled players and he will be one of them and also look for him to be one of those silent big play guys whom teams will eventually have to plane their defenses around

Shula came in at a bad time with all the sanctions imposed by the NCAA.  It really hurt their ability to recruit.  But that is now  history.  The loss to MS. State was the real killer this year for the Tide.  For those folks that don't follow SEC football, Bama picked Shula over Sylvester Crooms who definitely had the last laugh this year.\nI have not been impressed with Shula and in my opinion he is on the hot seat.  He better deliver and in a hurry or he will be shown the door.  Bama fans can only take so much and losing 5 times to Auburn is 5 times too many.
