wow.
it might just be me but that looks like a lot of players you have us let go.
but that draft is AMAZING! i love every pick. If we can get Long and Brohm and Forte would be a big step into the right direction.
good job Scar

I like it. Would also be a fan of signing Jordan Gross, moving Weiner to LT, and drafting McFadden/Ellis, but this is beautiful too.

good draft but i dont know that brohm would be there in the 2nd round for us, i think at most he will fall to chicago at 14. it also appears that you have cut a lot of players and the roster lacks experience. how many wins do you think this team would get? might get 4-5, or do you hink it will be another last to first in the nfc south

Antoine Harris,Brent Grimes, and Corey McIntyre are all players I would like to keep maybe not starters but good backups and Barry Richardson in the 3rd round? Im guessing you didnt get the chance to watch the Senior Bowl Richardson vaule is probally the 5th or 6th round right now I like the rest of your draft though.

1. I dont think Brohm will be available at 37.
2. I dont think Wheeler will be available at 48.
3. Bit early for Barry Richardson. I didnt like him AT ALL in the Sr. Bowl.
Otherwise good stuff. Maybe too many cuts.

I'd like Eddie Royal in the 5th or that kid from App State...for that same position, but honestly that'd be a great offseason.

I think Wheeler is a top 50 guy, but MLBs normally slip...Demeco Ryans anyone? I'd be kinda surprised if Wheeler wasn't there at 48...but then again, he may not be. Richardson I'm not a big fan of either...but I think he's a better project player than the current OTs we have.
