Buffalo Bills select TE Chase Coffman Missouri. Chase was slowed a bit by injuries last season however Buffalo thinks he will be a nice compliment to a strong receiving corps.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
Interesting draft so far. Redhook if the Bengals end up with Monroe and Unger I can't imagine anyone would be disappointed with that, nice start. Although I will say I would have been awfully tempted to go Jason Smith and Eric Wood with those selections.
The pick of the draft I think so far has to be Hoosier Red getting a TE like Pettigrew with the 27th pick, he's an outstanding fit for any team but the way Peyton utilizes his TE's it's all bad for everyone else. Great selection Hoosier!
One thing for some GM's to consider here. Teams moving to a base 3-4 defense have a hard time transitioning to it from a 4-3 because they lack a true NT. There are few of them ava. and even fewer who can likely make an impact soon. Raji and Brace are 2 of them. So for KC, Denver and the like they need to address that position. A couple of others who might need some time to develop are Chris Baker from Hampton and Sammie Lee Hill from Stillman, but look intriguing in the middle rounds. Antonio Dixon from "the U" might garner some late round attention.

The pick of the draft so far is the Patriots getting Jeremy Maclin with the 23rd pick.
Hi, I'm Scot McCloughan, GM of disgraced NFL franchise, the San Francisco 49ers. Unfortunately, this draft lasts multiple rounds, so I am forced to further our embarrassing decline from a respectably mediocre organization to a downright despicable "NFL franchise."
It has been said that the best strategy for the draft is to go "BPA", in which case we would go for Virginia's Clint Sintim, but we already selected a more extreme version of Sintim in Brian Orakpo, who is no doubt disappointed that he became a 49er.
Therefore, we're going in a different direction. Walt Harris was a great cornerback in the day, but he isn't getting any younger, and if he is, he needs to stop hanging out with Barry Bonds. With our 2nd pick of the draft, we are cautiously optimistic in our selection of Alphonso Smith, CB, Wake Forest, who will probably develop into an overly-aggressive road cone, fitting in with the team's theme of 'bad.'
Welcome to San Francisco, Alphonso. We believe that shortly after signing your first pro contract, you will want to jump off a bridge. Fortunately, we are home to one of the most beautiful, historic bridges in the world so you can send yourself off in style. If that's the path you choose, please bring our troubled star tight end, Vernon Davis, with you--it would save us millions of dollars and spare us from even more headaches.
I was tempted as well with Smith and Wood. I honestly don't know who is better. And the Bengals might not as well. I picked Monroe because he is a little more polished than Smith is. And I picked Unger because he is intelligent and can possibly play more positions other than Center.
Either way, I'd be happy if the Bengals got 2 of those 4.
I could also see the Bengals waiting to the 3rd round for a Center. Luigs, from Arkansas, should be there still.
We'll see what happens. I just hope the Bengals don't screw it up too bad.

Yeah, I was hoping the Bengals would take Wood in round 2, and Unger would fall to Green Bay, because I think he could play LT- he started there for two years in the Pac-10.I picked Unger because he is intelligent and can possibly play more positions other than Center.
Pettigrew is a good value pick for the Colts, but with their gaping holes at LB, DT, and WR I'm not sure if they can afford the luxury of taking him.

With the first of there two 2nd round picks the Miami Dolphins select Brian Robiskie, WR, The Ohio State University.
We were torn between Brian and Kenny Britt out of Rutgers but feel Robiskie will be ready to help us immediately. As everyone knows Brian will be reunited with his former teammate Ted Ginn along with his father.
At 6'3" and 200 lbs he will be a great over the middle receiver and will be able to stretch the field when needed.
The New York Football Giants, the best team in the NFC East, still have all these draft picks cause no one is allowing me to wheel and deal (in this humble draft evaluator's opinion it has to be because of my genius and the potential to rip people off) so we are once again forced to watch people take my players whilst I idly sit by (I'm looking at you JaxRed - Hakeem Nicks wants to be a Giant!!).
However, the New York Football Giants, robbed of a Super Bowl only because Plaxico Burress shot himself in the leg in the Mighty Midget's City, are pleased to welcome a local product to the Family (and by Family I mean the Mara Family, except for Kate Mara, cause she is mine).

With the 14th pick in the 2nd round, the Houston Texans select....
Jonathon Luigs C - Arkansas. He has good size and he's the fastest center in the draft with good feet. He blocked for McFadden, Jones, and Hillis for three years. The guy knows how to run block. As far as pass blocking, he has the tools and the size at about 6'3 310 to become a solid pass protector. The guy could start from the beginning and fills the next biggest hole on our team, at center. Don't get me wrong, i love Myers, the guy works his tail off, he's just too undersized.
