Post Draft Thoughts (Chandler)
Following a very interesting draft, far better than last years draft I thought, its time for some reflection. I'm not going to go through an rate teams as I see this as pointless unless you are talking about the Oakland Raiders. The crypt keeper himself made many foolish decisions in this years draft. Lets say for the sake of argument that Darius Heywood Bey turns out to be a decent player and contributes and turns into a decent WR in the NFL. Al Davis should have traded down and picked him in the late 20s where he still would have been available and got him for much cheaper than paying him number 7 pick money.
Hey Al, yes you can not teach speed, hey if you covenant speed, fine. But get it a value, trade back and still get your guy. There were just better options there to spend your money. Its like paying 20 grand for a beat up used honda civic. Also, HAHA at the safety from OU, he was a 6th rd pick at best. This really hurts to write and watch on draft day because outside of the Browns I grew up loving the raiders with their ridiculous fan base, some of the best fans in the league no doubt. They deserve better than this.
The Cleveland Browns had a fairly good draft I thought. Any time you come away with at least 4 starters from the draft I think you can call it successful. I am talking about Robo, Mack, and two players we got from the Jets. I do question the 2 wr taken, I like him as a prospect, I think he will make it in the NFL, I just thought we had more pressing needs at that spot especially on defense. Overall solid effort sticking to their core values plan getting smart hard nose football players.
SF 9ers, got a great value with the best WR in the draft, and a solid number 1, something they have lacked since TO left town.
Texas Tech - Hey Michael Leach shut up! No one wants to hear you whine and cry about Crabbtree falling because you say the Browns led a smear campaign to knock him down. Not true, in fact I have reports that he acted like an ass while here even pulling the ol high five, psyche routine on Braylon Edwards. Yeah really funny Crabbs, way to go. He dropped because he played in a ridiculous offense that would never work in the NFL and thus his stats are extremely inflated, much like your QB's are. You want you kids to get drafted, play a real offense. IF you don't want his image to be tarnished them him to stop acting this way:
Yeah, thats not a diva at all. Its the Browns fault he fell to the 49ers not Al Davis, not his offense system, not his foot injury, it is Eric Mangini's fault. Shut up leach. Next comming of Prime Time perhaps?
Also, Eric Dampier needs to shut up as well. OHHH BIG BILLY BADASS running his mouth about knocking Tony Parker on his ass. Way to deliver tough guy, yeah you won the game but failed to deliver on your promise. To me it seemed like a middle school bully who acts tough and gets in fights at school, only because he knows it will get broken up and thus no damage to themselves. Right, He couldn't knock him down because he ran his mouth and if he did he would be suspended and fined. Well hey genius, don't run your mouth and lead by example and do it before talking about it and you are much more effective and intimidating that way. Then you can be tough without having to run your mouth to try and achieve that image. Way to go powderpuff!

I concur, I deserve MUCH better than Heywood after all the crap I've put up with from the Raiders over the past decade of my life. Also to be noted, how the hell did Rey Maualuga fall to the second round???
