Vikings 1st pick RB Dalvin Cook: I am excited. They are saying he could be the next Warrick Dunn. He gives the Vikings a good 3 prong attack and may become the every down back. The question is can the slightly improved line block for him. 2nd pick C Pat Elflein: Versatile. can play center and both guard positions. Hope he pans out. 3rd Pick DT Jaleel Johnson: As an Iowa fan I have watched him for 4 years now. Will be a rotational player at first and give the Vikings a good inside pass rush. I like it. i wanted Cook on the Birds and was hoping for him 2nd Round. think those tards swooped in an nabbed him. was then hoping the Birds were bold enough to nab Joe Mixon.................. they could have made this giant publicity stunt bringing in Michael Vick with a 'the more you know' video tutoring him on life lessons and changing who you are. i just want a dominant stud running back in the backfield. birds kind of dropped the ball in my eyes not trading up a few spots and nabbing Cook or not nabbing Mixon - but it is what it is - can't complain with CB help Yep, the Vikings traded up 5 spots to get Cook, if they hadn't he might of been available 2 spots later for the Eagles. Kind of poetic justice for the Bradford trade don't you think?

I am pretty sure the Cardinals were planning to draft Pat Mahomes II ( with Deshaun Watson as a back up choice ) Oh well. All I can say is that I feel sorry for ya man. Losing your team has to be tough.

I don't pay any attention to college sports, really, so I don't know the players in the draft. I also tend to be very skeptical of draft acquisitions, since at least as often as not, they don't amount to much for the team that picked them. At any rate, according to SI, at least, the Dolphins got a B+, B and B- for the draft picks SI bothered to grade. That's my problem especially went it comes to college hoops...can't stand that product. As your 689,411 posts during the NCAA Tournament will attest to.

As usual, the Patriots had an interesting, but very uncertain, draft. Skipping the first two rounds for known commodities makes sense, but at the same time, it's curious that Belichick wasn't interested in any of the first-round defensive talent. A lot of strong defensive tackles and linebackers were available, but apparently, he's content with the crew that he has. Not that the defense was bad last year or anything, but I just don't know . . . you can never figure out what's going on in New England.
As for the teams that the Patriots need to worry about, I think the Colts and the Texans picked very, very well. The Colts are finally addressing their defensive issues, and the Texans may have finally found a solution at quarterback. With Mariota continuing to develop, the AFC South should be very interesting.

How about they concentrate on just winning a playoff game first. LMAO right. The Cowboys honestly, got worse. NO CBS at all, nothing. They should have traded to nab Sherman, they need a CB. Not only that, they lost twice to the Giants, and look at what they did. No Cruz, hi Marshall (Upgrade). Beckham is still there and they got a new WR weapon. Also, Dak wont surprise people now. I still like Dak, but they arent having the same season as last year. Giants have gotten A LOT better, scary better. Might be looking at NE Vs NYG V3 in the super bowl. Dallas isnt going.

We drafted a dude named Taco, so yeah, I'm pretty sure we won the draft I have been trying to think of something cool to say when Taco gets a sack, but I haven't come up with anything yet. "Taco adds some hot sauce."? "Taco will not give them the runs."? Come on people, help me out.
