Ah, my favorite weekend of the year. Yes, better than Superbowl weekend, better than opening weekend! Does anybody watch the complete draft on TV / do anything special on draft day? It really ticks me off, because as much as love the quality of the ESPN broadcast, some part of my schedule always conflicts. This year I have to take stupid placement tests for college :-(

Still, I can't wait for Saturday!

I can't wait either. I'd like to see the Dolphins take Brees.

Sounds good to me. I've always sorta liked Miami anyway, especially because I liked Marino. Would be a good club for him to join.

I heard my Packers would trade Dorsey Levens and one of their lower first round picks for a really high pick. I hope so!

NickHammy · 04-16-2001, 11:10 PM

I heard it would be the Browns they trade with. Good for me. The Browns need experienced players as well as some good draft picks.

iFroggy · 04-16-2001, 11:46 PM

I heard that if the Pack keeps their pick they'll take Santana Moss if he is available. I like him a lot.

Actually, most sites I've read have picked the Pack to take a big defensive lineman to stop the run, or possibly a receiver like Moss, so you never know. Maybe Santana will be as good as Randy (Moss).

Everyone else, post who you think your team should draft and what you think will happen.

NickHammy · 04-17-2001, 04:56 PM

I think that Cleveland needs to get some offense. I've heard that they might try to get some more defensemen but what they really need is some offense so they can put some points on the board.

PeterDewar · 04-17-2001, 06:06 PM

I just want to see Brees taken near the top, Miami would be nice. ESPN was saying Falcons (5th Overall). Anywhere in the top half would be great.

They all complain about his size, well if its such a big deal then how'd he go through high school (4 years) undefeated and take Purdue to the Rose Bowl. So people say the linemen are bigger in the NFL, they weren't that big in college, they got bigger. Therefore, why couldn't Drew "get bigger" if its nessasary.

iFroggy · 04-17-2001, 06:13 PM

I really don't think Brees will be taken in any of the first 16 picks. With Miami, we are looking for a long term solution and Fiedler surely isn't it.

I would love to see Brees in a Cowboy's uniform. But, I don't think it is going to happen

*Marc* · 04-19-2001, 08:36 PM

So who do you guys think will be picked first?

Tom Baker, are you alive?

NickHammy · 04-19-2001, 08:51 PM

Uhhhhhh....
Vick will be the number one pick...I'd be surprised if he wasn't.

I can't watch it b/c I have two tennis matches back-to-back in Cicinati.(I live in Columbus)

iFroggy · 04-20-2001, 10:41 AM

I also think it will be Michael Vick. You simply CANNOT take anyone else. I believe it would be foolish. If they are thinking of taking someone else, they should trade the pick. But, I think that they do want Vick.
