And with that, the Draft has been won.
SNR has been messaged. |

I'd be willing to bet that Fairley fell in part because some people just didn't personally like him.

No denying what this guy is capable of. The Texans need someone who plays like a mother****er anyway, their defense has never really had any sort of edge to it. Wade Phillips and Nick Fairley give them a good head start on that. |

Mario Williams
Amobi Okoye Nick Fairley Give that lineup two years and that is a DL with historic implications. |

With the pick of Nick Fairley, all the elite talent is officially gone from this draft and now we're looking at a soft, mushy middle of the first round where every pick is kind of a "Oh, yeah? Meh.. well, I guess that works..." sort of pick.
The Vikings are a team with lots of needs but also lots of question marks. Is Ray Edwards coming back? Can Kennedy be an adequate replacement for the presence left by Fat Pat Williams? Is Bryant McKinnie getting too old and should the Vikings start considering long-term options here? They have no QB, but is it too early to take a shot at Jake Locker or Ryan Mallett? Leslie Frazier says "No, it's not." He needs to make a statement and he needs his mark on the team. Reach or not, raw or not, this is the guy to do it. If he plays this year or not is a question they can answer later this offseason. The Minnesota Vikings select Jake Locker, QB, Washington |

The Detroit Lions select Tyron Smith OT USC.
Last year they took Suh. He was murder on opposing quarterbacks. Too bad he couldn't protect his own. BigChiefFan pm'ed |

I don't like the Locker pick but I love the reasoning. I'm sold.
I pray to the Gods of Football that the Lions get Smith, though. I love watching Stafford. |

Stafford certainly showed in his limited PT that he is special. Hopefully, things fall their way on draft day and they FINALLY get him the protection he deserves.
