Arizone and Dallas deserve HM for best.
They both got top 15(Arguably top 10) talent at 24 and 27.
imo:
Top 3 best:
Detroit
San Francisco
Seattle
Top 3 worst:
Jacksonville
New England
Denver

I never imagined the day I'd be thrilled to see my team draft two O-lineman in a row (and both first round picks at that), but dammit, that's exactly what I asked Draft Santa for Draftmas.
Detroit best
Denver worst
lions should have axed Millen long before they did
But then they never would have been in a position to draft Suh...
Detroit fans are still trying to figure out how Millen got a contract extension after starting 16-48.
or charles rogers.....or mike williams....
I nominate SD for top 3 worst.
from a Football standpoint, most of you won't be able to explain how Denver's draft sucked, you only hate Tebow and believe him incapable of becoming an NFL QB because he's a christian. the WR pick was also smart, Dez is going to be all the headache of Mashall, with half the talent.
Denver is on the rise, and I say this as a Charger fan
I don't call New England's draft the "worst" right now... they moved up on the draft board, and only picked three spots lower than they would have, and picked up an area of need in CB. I mean, if you hate the pick, I could understand.
actually I don't hate New England's 1st round at all. They got extra draft picks, good value for the player they got considering where they drafted him, addressed somewhat of a need, and still have a shot at Sergio Kindle in the 2nd round.
good value? The absolute highest he was going in any mock draft was 30th to Minn, and in all likelihood wasn't getting taken anytime soon. Also, what the is the need for another young corner? They had way bigger needs that could have been addressed.
Not sure if you paid any attention at all to the draft, but there was a run on CB's as soon as NE picked him. Kyle Wilson (way overrated) and Robinson (meh) went very quickly after him. I like McCourty over either of them, and so did alot of other guys. Just cuz Mel Kiper wasn't crazy about him doesn't mean he sucks.
Also tbh not sure if you've noticed, but Springs, Wilhite, and Wheatley all blow ass. After Bodden and Butler, it's a steep drop off. They need another DB in the rotation.
Finally, those way bigger needs can still be adressed. Sergio Kindle is still on the board. They didn't take the massively overrated Jared Odrick which I feared they would. Taylor Mays is dropping to the point where he may be a tremendous value pick. And they've easily got the most ammo to make big moves tomorrow.
Well this in overnight sucks. If they still end up getting Kindle and Gronk in the 2nd round then this knee jerk reaction after the 1st round would look dumb, I just doubt Kindle is there when they pick. This year was the year to have tons of 2nd rounders given all the talent there.
I don't even think they need to make big moves. There are a load of good 3-4 prospects to be had tomorrow.
Though it wouldn't surprise me for BB to make a play for #33 on the cheap. I just think a team like the Bills will shoot it's load for Clausen.
also, tbh Rick Gosselin has more draft knowledge in his left ass cheek than Kiper/McShay have combined. He had McCourty 24th on his value list.

Also, Belichick said McCourty was his pick all along, but he knew he could trade down, acquire more picks, and still get his man.
The top 4 corners were all going in the 1st. After that, the class is pretty weak.
They did a terrible job announcing it but what picks did they get with the trade down trades?
They got a 3rd rounder (90th overall) for sure, and I think something else but I can't find it.
EDIT" They also moved up from the 119th to the 113th pick.
I just want tomorrow already. This intermission is bull .
This 1 round stuff might be the worst move ever. I hate it. I'd rather have all 7 rounds in one day.
I'm sure the ratings and money tells a different story, but this primetime 1st round bull is definitely the worst thing that's ever happened to the draft.
Imagine how much worse it would be if the Pats traded out of the 1st round completely like last season![]()
That's one thing that kept me optimistic, this guy must be REALLY special if New England was keeping a 1st rounder for him.
If trading out of the first last year leads to them having the picks for a TE (Gronk), OLB (Kindle), and a WR (Tate/Benn) then it looks great.
DoK, nothing to say about Cards?
Also, there's some rumors of an Osi Umenyiora deal possibly happening. I think I'd rather go with Kindle in the draft, but either way a pass rusher is definitely coming to NE.
