NFL Draft-Day One Winners & Losers
NFL Draft-Day One Winners
Winners
Jaguars- Two instant starters with OT’s E. Monroe & E. Britton. Patience is a virtue, and the Jags let these two great offensive big men fall to them, nice work.
Seahawks- Seattle made some smart moves drafting Aaron Curry & Max Unger, but the 2nd round trade to acquire the Broncos 2010 first round pick is something definitely worth bragging about.
Eagles- First round winner for sure, grabbing what many thought to be a top 10 pick in WR J. Maclin, only having to give up a late round pick to move up a couple spots. RB Shady McCoy is a sleeper that could be a great player in the Eagles offense, maybe the only place where he can play early.
Giants- Great value with all three of their picks, grabbing LB’s C. Sintim and W. Beatty, both thought to be first round talents. WR H. Nicks was a bit a of a
reach, as maybe the Giants should have used the pick on trading for Boldin, but either way they got a much needed receiver.
Lions- Smart, tough players with Pettigrew and SS L. Delmas, you can tell someone did their homework.
Losers
Raiders- What the hell is going on in Oakland? Apparently all it takes to be a high draft pick on the Raiders board is high end speed. I’m calling it now: D. Heyward Bey is the 2009 version of Ted Ginn Jr. After passing on Michael Crabtree, Oakland dove deep into the safety pool to create a super-reach in M. Mitchell. There is a reason why this team only wins a handful of games a year.
Browns- I’ll trade you a $100 bill for 4 $20′s, and then I’ll trade 4 $20 bills for 6 $5 bills. Way to go Cleveland, you own the 6th round, and will have 5 extra players that won’t
make 
your team, was that really worth moving down?
Cowboys & Bears- I know this has been dubbed a weak draft but that’s overall, there is great talent in the first 40-50 picks. If you don’t like the overall skill level, pull a “Ditka” and package it all up to move into the top 30, grab a receiver and call it a day.
