I like the Vikings picks

no real head scratchers

all positions of need

I'm guessing Zimmer had more input than last season

Skins pick up Randy Moss' kid and the CU QB.
I'm flummoxed he went untaken.

LaVert Hill sings an UDFA deal with the Chiefs. I’m shocked he wasn’t taken.

If he had left after his jr year last year he would’ve been drafted. He cost himself money by coming back to school.

Saints sign Jameis Winston to a 1-year deal. 

If Drew Brees threw 118 straight interceptions he would still have a lower career int % than Famous Jameis.

In the spirit of recent turnovers, it appears Jay Cutler just lost possession of his wife :57:

what doesn't make sense to me about the Saints' Jameis signing, is that the Saints just signed back-up QB Taysom Hill to a $21 million, two-year extension.

No details yet on the Jameis contract, but unless it was super cheap- they'd potentially have a lot of money tied up in QB position.

Some things that make you scratch your head....

Packers don't take a single WR in one of the deepest WR draft classes in modern NFL history. One game away from the Super Bowl. Give Aaron Rodgers more pass catching weapons? Nah.

Bears take TE Cole Kmet in the 2nd round. They now have TEN TE's on their roster. I guess the Bears are going to run a brand new innovative, 10 TE and 1 QB offense. Who needs other offensive weapons when you have Tight Ends?

Patriots don't try and make a play for Jacob Eason in the 4th rd or Jake Fromm in the 5th round. Their QB's are Brian Hoyer and Jarrett Stidham. For real? Unless they are going to sign Cam Newton or tank for Trevor, this makes no sense to me. Eason is a project, but he's more talented than either QB you have. Fromm might be limited physically, but he's a smarter, better QB than Stidham- and he's more talented than Hoyer.

BB has always tried to hammer that square peg into a round hole make chicken salad out of chicken shit,convincing himself he's talent on loan from God.Great at techniques/mechanics/alignments/schemes not so much at spotting talent or flexibility regarding advice

MSU should offer a course in how to get paid as a QB.  Cousins is a decent starter, who has managed to get paid like a star multiple times, and Drew Stanton and Brian Hoyer have managed to out together decade+ careers without taking nearly any hits.  They've had a couple years where they saw extended PT due to starters having long term injuries, but how many times did either one go into the season as the projected starter?  Stanton maybe once in Detroit and once in Arizona?  Hoyer maybe once Cleveland?

Not certain why the Browns took a TE,they have enough of them and moved into the 1st rd in '17 to get Njoku from Miami.Bryant is a very good talent,His senior season efforts earned him the John Mackey Award, given to the most outstanding tight end in college football, in 2019.But they have a stable of TE's and could have used DL depth.I guess the Browns were one of 4 teams to earn a A in the Draft from PFF
