I'm disappointed in the Bears draft. Their big need is at the skill positions, so they pick a guy who will mask how bad the current guys are.
Steelers - A-, we need o-line men, but Ben has more weapons now, and with our upcoming schedule, we need em

The kids from Vandy have lotsa of upside and they are intelligent. Some had the OT has the 2nd best in the draft behind some kid from Michigan. Steltz from LSU will be a solid SS especially if they use him like the Bucs used John Lynch. possible coup d'etat; John David Booty to the windy city to dethrone Rex.

The Seahawks had a solid draft. Carlson, Owen Schmitt, Forsett, & Coutu probably will contributr right away. Seahawks get a B+
I remember in 2002, how excited I was when Dallas drafted Roy Williams, Andre Gurode, Antonio Bryant, Derek Ross, Jamar Martin, et all. I and almost everyone else gave that draft an A. Only Gurode and Williams remain with the team. Bryant had a lot of talent; but pissed it away. I have no clue as to how this class will pan out. But I am extremely happy with how the draft panned out for Dallas and we added some nice prospects at RB and CB in particular.
