By Chicago a few picks after ours

Thank God for the Martin pick. I hated the right side of our line. It was probably the worst in the league

So its a great pick then?

Good pick or great pick?

Dont know him

Our O-Line:

Long
Incognito
Pouncey
Jerry
Martin/Murtha

Should be improved over last year.

The problem will be depth...

Barker
Cook
Garner
Feinga

Most assumed he would be a 1st round pick.

I think it was a very good pick at a position of HUGE need!

Actually, I really like our picks so far.

I think its one of our best drafts in a LOOOONG time.

Start with Tannehill. I'm never going to criticize a team that NEEDS a franchise QB where you don't win without a franchise QB for taking a 1st round QB in the 1st round. I don't care if somebody had him ranked 4th, 8th, 10th, 15th...whatever...you either believe he's going to be your guy or you dont take him.

Martin is a steal in the 2d round. A STEAL. And he address our 2nd biggest need after QB. Nothing wrong with taking BPA AND filling a hole at the same time.

Vernon is very talented. McShay had him in the 2nd round. Kiper thought he'd be a 2 or late 1 if he'd gone back for his sr season.

Egnew is a big time receiving threat and uber athlete. He is a terrific fit for this offense. GB carried 5 TE's last year... FIVE. Fasano isn't a fit for this offense long term. He's to slow. Clay has upside but he's an H-back.

We now have a 4th, 5th, two 6ths and a 7th.

There are tons of WR's left and not much to separate them.

So far so good...
