Adams -- 56th overall to Steelers - !@#$ you, pothead. (-33)
Minnifield -- UDFA; injury concerns. Stunning drop, IMO. Can't believe he went undrafted (-199...****ing ouch)
Johnson -- 65th overall to the Rams; first 'value' pick I made. (+20)
Nigel Bradham -- 105th overall, 4th round to the Bills - slight value (+20)
Adam Gettis-- 141 to Skins, another slight value (+7)
Olivier Vernon -- 72 overall to Miami; huge gainer that helps offset Minnifield (+147)
Josh LeRibeus --71st overall to the 'Skins; puts me over the top. (+158)
Overall grade -
+120. That damn Minnifield drop really screwed my pooch or I'd have owned this draft. Good picks in the 3-5 and 2 great 7th rounders; not bad for a first effort.
