Belichick will take care of Mallett's character issues, could be a good fit for him to learn and stop fucking up.

I love how everyone thinks Belichick is some kind of genius. He's done nothing since he was caught cheating.

Berman was pretty bad again tonight

I hate that they had already started ignoring picks and talking through them. A couple of times picks were made during commercial breaks. It's too early for that. I get tired of Schefter stating the obvious about the lockout

Love what the Bengals did tonight

He is a control freak and keeps his house in order though. Mallett needs that.


Berman is WAY off his game this weekend

He is having a hard time putting sentences together! That interview with Marvin Lewis was brutal!

He doesn't have Steve Young hogging all of the camera time this year

That's because he is some kind of genius as a football coach.

Going 18-1 is nothing? The reason the Patriots lost the perfect season was because of a MIRACLE catch. He caught the damn football on his helmet. That's not on Belicheck. Hell, even beyond that year the Patriots are always a threat.

To try to discredit the hoodie is just foolish.

Mallett isn't good. I don't think he'll ever start.

Horrible under pressure, horrible intangibles, horrible leader. Cannon arm and nothing else. And I've said that for over 2 years now. I was shocked that he was ever mocked as a 1st round pick. So many flaws to his game.

Good question. They perpetually underachieve. It doesnt help that their coach is something called Dabo Swinney

Bingo! We have a winner. I live down here in AR, and because he has a big arm, everyone around here thinks he's the second coming. Petrino's scheme has made him a star. He cannot play under pressure, and has a hot head, very tempermental when faced with adversity. His off the field stuff has been blown out of proportion though...his agent (a friend of his) has done a terrible job of squashing those rumors. He's basically a pocket QB, with an unreal arm, that cannot make the big decision/throw when necessary because he's a dipshit. His low IQ will hurt him.
I believe the Pats groom him then trade him.

Patriots got a steal. Yes he will start. He has the attitude of a whiny little bitch, but I wouldnt be surprised at all if he has the most success out of every QB taken in this draft.

Tom Brady has that personality trait as well, and he seems to be fine.

fourth round underway

I'm looking at a few linebackers to see where they go

Chris Carter from Fresno State...he really gets after it

Mark Herzlich from Boston College...obviously a nice story after he beat cancer to come back and play...he started slow last year when he just got back into it but played better at the end of the year and had some nice workouts...could be a sleeper when you figure in his intangibles

Marcus Cannon is another intriguing player

massive size but good athleticism for that size

would've been a second rounder but it was reported a few days ago that he has non-hodgkin's lymphoma, which is treatable and beatable, but still probably scared off some teams so far

Houston would be one of my winners.

The defense is the reason they've been held back and they added JJ Watt and Brooks Reed, two high energy, effort players. And then traded up to get Brandon Harris late in the second round and he was considered a first rounder.

Gotta love Oakland taking Demarcus Van Dyke 81st overall when he was projected as a 5-7 rounder.

Oh well, at least they did draft Wisienewski and LSU' OT Barksdale. They should help out right away considering Oakland was the worst team at protecting the QB.

I agree. They're under the radar but they've had a great draft when its come to addressing needs. I love Brooks Reed, he'll be a nice player for them. And everyone knows the about the talent Watt and Harris have.

Sweet, as a Raiders fan I love this. Still doesn't make me feel better about the Raiders inexplicably reaching on a 5th rounder with the 81st overall pick.

I love that Henery pick by Philly. Akers is getting less and less reliable with age. Henery will do well there. I think he'll be one of the best K's in the league within a few years.

some good picks by Green Bay

they've flown under the radar because ESPN is too busy gushing over every Belichick move but the actual Super Bowl champs are having a strong draft

1st round - Derek Sherrod, LT, Miss State
2nd round - Randall Cobb, WR, Kentucky
4th round - Davon House, CB, New Mexico State
5th round - D.J. Williams, TE, Arkansas

I notice that they sent Berman away for today's portion of the draft. Wingo should have been there from the get go
