WE GOT HIM!!!!!!!THE VIKINGS HAVE CHAD GREENWAY!WOOOOHO!!!!!! Now lets get Hodge in the second round. Damn I'm happy.A quick bit of thoughts.-The Texans are retarded.-What will NO do with two star running backs?-Sims shouldn't have gone 9. He's not even the second best linebacker in the draft. Needless to say I'm glad he did go ahead of the second best linebacker. Beacuse the second best linebacker droped to us.-Matt Leinart got basicly the best deal he ever will. He's got Edge at running back, two of the best young recivers in the NFL and Kurt Warner one of the best vetren QB's in the NFL to teach him. Danny Green is building up his system again just like he did with the Vikings.-How did Tye Hill and Jason Allen go over Jimmy Williams?It's been a wierd draft so far. Dallas just selected Bobby Carpenter. Good pick. He's the third best LB in the draft and a good fit for them.http://www.nfl.com/draft/drafttracker/round/round1

IMO, Sims is better than both Greenway and Carpenter. He also has the speed to possibly play safety if needed.
I guess Sims is better then Carpenter but I'm not sure about Greenway.Sims also has had five concussions in his collage career. That's not even the NFL yet! That's what scares me away from him. And Greenway is a better fit to the Tampa 2 that the Vikings are playing.Antonio Cromartie is taken by San Diago. He is probably the best CB in the draft but still, 3 CB's before Jimmy Williams who was projected to be a 9-12 pick!Weird.
Tamba Hali is made pick number 20 by KC. Nice pickup to the D.Heres the top 20. All in the books. Once the first round is done I'll post thoughts on the entire round.1-Houston: Williams, Mario 2-New Orleans: Bush, Reggie3-Tennessee: Young, Vince 4-N.Y. Jets: Ferguson, D'Brickashaw 5-Green Bay: Hawk, A.J.6-San Francisco: Davis, Vernon7-Oakland: Huff, Michael8-Buffalo: Whitner, Donte9-Detroit: Sims, Ernie10-Arizona: Leinart, Matt 11-Denver (from St. Louis): Cutler, Jay12-Baltimore (from Cleveland): Ngata, Haloti13-Cleveland (from Baltimore): Wimbley, Kamerion14-Philadelphia: Bunkley, Brodrick15-St. Louis (from Atlanta through Denver): Hill, Tye16-Miami: Allen, Jason17-Minnesota: Greenway, Chad18-Dallas: Carpenter, Bobby19-San Diego: Cromartie, Antonio20-Kansas City: Hali, TambaEDIT: Sweet! This draft is perfect. My favorite collage player. The Minnesota hometown LoMo just went to the Pats. A great team that he will have a chance to win with.I'm happy for him. I'm also surprised he went over Williams San Francisco is having a great draft. First Davis a great pick at 6 and now Matty Lawson at 22! Thats a great pickup for them (And also the 5th OLB picked so far)
No kidding. Davin Joseph? C'mon! Both of the top WR's are still on the board. Thinking ahead to the Bears. I'd like to see Chad Jackson in a Bears uniform. He'd help that offense a lot I think.

Johnathan Joseph goes 23. Pitt has number 24 now and the Jets have 29.I'm out now. Need to rest up for the second round
giants traded their 1st to the Steelers for their 1st, 3rd and 4th..steelers take WR Santonio holmes, Ohio State

I think Nick Mangold was a good pick for the Jets, very solid center, will be productive to fill the shoes of Mawae.
