    I don't think ESPN is going to stop talking about Manziel ... you would think he was drafted #1 2 minutes ago.

    Ugh. He seems like he has an insufferable attitude.

    Yup, I've heard he makes Manziel look like a really humble guy.

    I think his attitude is a big reason he fell. A lot of teams apparently didn't like him after his interviews and his decision to do the show with his GF.

    Wow, I didn't realize that no Longhorn has been drafted...

    Where is Jackson Jeffcoat projected?

    why "LOL Mccarron"??

    that's more of an indictment on Savage who was taken a round earlier.

    5th-6th round....at this point 7th is more likely.

    Big mystery for now. Camp will be telling.

    I won't jump the gun anointing favorites.

    We don't know what Williams or Quessenberry look like right now. We don't know if they would have panned out last year if healthy. They are question marks as far as we are concerned.

    Newton wasn't getting the job done. Dubious motor, sluggish laterally. Do things change under O'Brien? Does O'Brien go with more traditional O-Line play and away from ZBS that Newton was poor in? Does Newton look better sandwiched between blocking upgrades?

    I'm not saying he's going to be a marvel or that I like the idea of him staying as a starter....but I'm not going to be quick to write him off before camp.

    Which is pretty funny as he was the JFF's roommate at the Manning Camp, when JFF didnt show for a morning session, and the Mannings told him to just leave.

    My guess is Skov and Tajh here. If Mcnair still cares about having good ol choir boys then I could see Smallwood from Uconn

    If they take Tajh Boyd then Keenum fans will be crying.

    ESPN has a reporter with a live feed from that gay bar, of course.

    Jets have 209 & 210

    then Texans at 211 & 216.

    HOU will also finish draft at 256.

    Mike Mayock is awesome. I don't know if anyone else is watching NFL Network, but he just cracked me the heck up!
