True, which is why I really don't mind the pick at all. It really is about as WTF as it gets though.

What's wrong with Bryce Brown? I don't know anything about him, but I'm curious why you guys are talking about him so much

Bryce Brown is not crazy. His dad is a dumbass, and he got controlled by his parent. He was the #1 runningback in the country above Trent Richardson, went to Tennessee. Lane Kiffin left after his freshman year, and his dad pretty much forced him to transfer. He tried playing for K-state and couldnt even be 3rd string.

Bequette is going to be a passing downs 5-tech for them.

He's just one of those names that I thought I'd never hear again, and all of a sudden the eagles take him in the 7th round in the draft. Hence the WTF. I don't dislike it at all, in fact I kinda like it, could be a steal.

The only WTF pick for the Eagles was Foles, I wouldn't have expected them to target him that early if at all, and over Cousins.

For the Ravens it was more "WTF" for the players we didn´t take. Would have loved for us to pick Jared Crick in the 4th and Audie Cole in the 6th (Cant be to mad at the 6th round pick tho. Really high on Tommy Streeter.)
In Ozzie we trust, I guess.

I like Bergstrom a lot more than Crawford, who was the first real WTF pick. Christo Bilukidi takes the WTF cake, though.

My WTF moment is the fact the Raiders didn't get address the need for a plugger in the middle AT ALL. Tommy Kelly can take on blockers and he has in the past, but he has the ability to penetrate and get in the backfield, so why mis-use him like that?
"WTF" is the Raiders passing on Josh Chapman and Alameda Ta'amu so many times.

I wept like a newly deflowered freshman girl who just realized he's not going to call me again.
Chapman's knee better be shot all to hell. If he's a starting NT in the next 2-3 years, me and Reggie have issues.

For my own team, I think the picks of AJ Jenkins and LaMichael James were equally shocking, but not bad at all considering what we really needed. The rest of the picks on the 2nd day were pretty ho-hum, not home runs but not bad either.
I have to give the "WTF" award to the Redskins for the Kirk Cousins move. You can give me any reach, bad pick, etc. made by anyone else...this move was worse. You take RGIII and expect them to line him up with help and weapons and instead they use a FOURTH round pick to take a backup who will surely put pressure on him as soon as RGIII starts struggling. That's just insane. Any feeling that the Skins were getting things together was shot to death right there for me.

lol@ Cousins putting pressure on RGIII.
There will be no chants for Kirk freaking Cousins when RGIII has a bad game. Get a grip.
It's insurance against they start QB getting dinged. Dude does run a lot, ya know. And he's not exactly stout. He gets hurt, and it's back to Grossman. Taking a QB there was a great move, especially if he develops and can get them a 2nd round pick in trade down the road.

Not this year. If RGIII takes a few years to develop and Cousins has a few big preseason games, then the dynamic changes. The Redskins have been here before, with Heath Shuler and Gus Frerotte. That turned into a big QB controversy before everybody figured out that neither one of them were very good.

Probably the highest rated player at that point. I'm a big fan of his, so I liked the pick.

I've been all over the Vikes board saying I wanted Marvin Jones. Greg Childs was my WTF pick. I don't like it at all. Could be in the minority but he has done nothing since the injury and I don't expect that to change. Jones would've been a much better pick IMO.

That's how most look at it. The thing is, I've never been a fan of the guy, especially coming off injury. The one thing I can give the guy, he's consistent.

Does Kellen Moore signing with the Lions count? People talk about not mixing QBs with different styles, and here you might be talking about having both the strongest and weakest-armed QBs in the league on the same roster.
