There have been a lot of surprise picks, guys falling down the board as usual, and then those teams that have been able to pick a few gems. Who do you all think has had the best draft?
Carolina Panthers
(1) Cam Newton, QB, Auburn
(65) Terrel McClain, DT, S Florida
(97) Sione Fua, DT, Stanford
With no 2nd rounder, the Panthers chose to beef up their D-line in the 3rd with their two picks and had to go with Cam Newton first overall, who will be a project but maybe a superstar someday.
Buffalo Bills
(3) Marcel Dareus, DT, Alabama
(34) Aarom Williams, CB, Texas
(68)Kelvin Sheppard, ILB, LSU
The Bills have head a great draft snagging the top defensive players with each pick. They will defintly have some great young talent to work with.
Cincinnati Bengals
(4) A.J. Green, WR, Georgia
(35) Andy Dalton, QB, TCU
(66)Dontay Moch, OLB, Nevada
The Bengals got exactly what they needed with an explosive receiver and a possibly replacement for Palmer if he does indeed leave.
New England Patriots
(17) Nate Solder, OT, Colorado
(33) Ras-I Dowling, CB, Virginia
(56) Shane Vereen, RB, California
(73) Stevan Ridley, RB, LSU
(74) Ryan Mallet, QB, Arkansas
With five picks already the Pats have gotten almost everything they need. Great offensive linemen in the first, then getting two RB's in hopes of filling that hole. Surprisingly, New England also go Ryan Mallet who some had projected in the first round. Interesting pick behind Brady but the Pats never fail to amaze me.
Detroit Lions
(13) Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn
(44) Titus Young, WR, Boise St.
(57) Mikel Leshoure, RB, Illinois
They were probably shocked to have Fairley fall into their lap, putting him on that line with last years first-rounder Ndamukong Suh. Snagging speedster Titus Young will also be a great player with Calvin Johnson and the young Matt Stafford. Leshoure is a great quick back too. The Lions did a great job and and continue to form their team through the draft. It'll pay off sometime.
If you feel someone has had had a better draft then tell us why, there have been a lot of solid drafts for teams.
I'm actually one who is pretty happy my Titans got Jake Locker.
