JAX gave up a lot to move up! (two 3rds and a 4th... wow) Holy moly! Ravens got a lot.


Bengals just got LB Keith Rivers. Not bad but I really hoped they would have got Ellis.

Geez . . . you two oughta get a friggin' room!  :tongue:

A guy I work with is a huge Bills' fan.  I feel like calling or emailing him to find out what he thinks about the Bills' pick.  Problem is, he probably won't answer his phone today.

Leodis McKelvin is a good pick for the Bills. Good CB plus he's a return man who will help the special teams.

Said Bills' fan, whom I just got off the phone with, says that the ST of the Bills don't need the help.  He also said that McKelvin isn't exactly a "rocket scientist" when it comes to intelligence.  Something about a 50-question IQ test that these aspiring NFLers take, and McKelvin answered 34 of them--only 13 correctly.

Ouch! LOL Good think he's not going to be launching rockets in Buffalo. I still think this was a good pick. It was a need on D and ST depth is a need for everyone. (return guys get hurt all the time)

Interesting first round. Zero WR's taken. Big run on tackles to the point of stretching it. Big run on RB's but I think they will all turn out pretty well. My Seahawks traded down 3 spots for two extra picks and still got the guy they wanted.

good size at 6'3"  . . . but I don't think he was projected as a second rounder.  I think he was originally a DB.

yeah, but, he gave the Packers a few damn, good seasons. Nelson has a great attitude because nothing phases him. Probably, from being a combat vet.

you got a point, OH.  the more I read about this kid, the more I like him.  he is probably the anti-schroeder, in fact.

packer nation is unamused, though.  I thought several times last season that perhaps driver was losing a step, but then
he broke off that 90 yard all-run TD pass in the NFCC game.  he pretty well ran away from the entire giant secondary; that
got my attention.

LOL!  the GB "ultra homers" are smiting their foreheads and asking, "who is going to throw to him?".  I think people will be
pleasantly surprised by rogers.

Green Bay selected Jordy Nelson, WR, Kansas State

:???:

on edit:

wow.  he had a huge 2007

Nelson is a stud. Got to see him a lot here in Big 12 country. A slight reach I think( I can't believe Malcolm Kelly is STILL on the board), but, this guy could be another Doug Schroeder for the Pack.

bill schroeder, and we hated him. :-)  and heck, he was a local kid.

great hands, miserable attitude.

yeah, but, he gave the Packers a few damn, good seasons. Nelson has a great attitude because nothing phases him. Probably, from being a combat vet.

you got a point, OH.  the more I read about this kid, the more I like him.  he is probably the anti-schroeder, in fact.

packer nation is unamused, though.  I thought several times last season that perhaps driver was losing a step, but then
he broke off that 90 yard all-run TD pass in the NFCC game.  he pretty well ran away from the entire giant secondary; that
got my attention.

Nelson has very good on-the-field speed. He will be a vertical threat for the Pack against teams who don't bring safety help over the top on him.

I am reading speculation where people are thinking that GB drafted him as a DB.  that is an area of need . . . .

Could be. He has the skills to be a smashmouth safety. He liked initiating contact at KSU.

It seems Malcolm Kelly's work ethic and attitude issues are coming back to haunt him.

I like (or perhaps dislike, since he will play in GB's division :-)) chicago's last pick.  matt forte was a machine last season.
