NFL.com: Adjusted 1st Round.... who the AFCW shudda picked
2. Denver Broncos Actual pick -- Von Miller
Adjusted pick -- Andy Dalton: There's no doubt that Miller is a good player. He has six sacks, but the Broncos are a quarterback away from being a potential playoff team in that division. Despite being 2-5, Denver has talent and Dalton gives them a better chance to win. He's another rookie QB playing above expectations. Dalton's not flashy, but is smart and steady. 18. San Diego Chargers Actual pick -- Corey Liuget Adjusted pick -- Phil Taylor: This is a breaking point as far as the talent level dropping a bit. Everybody before this point has Pro Bowl potential off what we've seen so far. The Chargers opt to go for Taylor over Liuget because he could be a nose tackle, which is a bigger priority in the 3-4. Taylor has seven starts and three sacks. He's played above expectations and is more powerful than Liuget. (Raiders 1st Round pick used for Richard Seymour) 23. Philadelphia Eagles Actual pick -- Danny Watkins Adjusted pick -- Stefen Wisniewski: Wisniewski's been a big surprise. He has blocked well in both run and pass and is one of the reasons why the Raiders have the second-ranked rushing attack. He's a strong, tough football player and has more experience than Watkins. 26. Kansas City Chiefs Actual pick -- Jonathan Baldwin Adjusted pick -- Same: He had a breakout game vs. the Chargers. His broken hand slowed him down to start the season. Baldwin's a big guy who runs good routes and has excellent speed for his size (6-foot-4, 228 pounds). He doesn't look that fast until he runs right by you. There's very little difference between Green, Jones and Baldwin. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...module=HP11_cp |

Wow a half a sack
![]() Von has nearly twice as many tackles and more forced fumbles than Aldon Smith. Aldon Smith also rushes twice as much as Von gets to.

If he continues to catch 20% of the balls thrown to him he'll have 10-15 catches by the end of the year which would be astounding.

Hard to respect your opinion on draft talent when you stated last week Tebow should have been the #1 overall pick. Von does seem really good so far.

Its really hard to win on every draft pick. The Broncos got a solid player in Miller, but i think the 49rs got the best pass rusher in the draft.

I don't question baldwins awesomeness, I just worry that we don't get the rock to bowe, or mcluster in space, since cassel is cassel, I can see him locking on to Baldwin the entire game and not looking away because baldwin is the largest person out there.

I don't know of a single person who questioned the pick. I think everyone was pretty stoked that we got a stud WR in the draft.

I had Akeem Ayers in the first and I wanted Torrey Smith. I didn't think he would make it to our second round pick, but he did. But the Baldwin signing works out pretty good since the Chiefs signed Breaston. |

Even more folks were patting themselves on the back after Thomas Jones went all Thomas Jones on him in the lockerroom. Yeah - plenty of people were down on Baldwin. Most of them will likely end up strangely silent about it.

Yeah I don't think that math is quite right. He did drop that ball he jumped for but it seemed more like a miss-timed jump than a hands issue. The INT was a tough one. I remember he almost made a sick catch in preseason. I personally am not worried about his hands at all right now. He has looked good IMO and am very pleased with his start, even without the TD.
