I like a lot of what the Vikings did, but that Patterson pick isn't something I can get on board with. A 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 7th for a guy that raw and immature? No thanks. The Jets' draft also stuck out to me in a bad way.

I liked the 9ers', Ravens', Eagles', Dolphins', Rams' and Packers' drafts.

The Rams really improved their roster to me.

Pick Player

1.8 Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia

1.30 Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia

3.9 T.J. McDonald, FS, USC

3.30 Stedman Bailey, WR, West Virginia

4.16 Barrett Jones, OG, Alabama

5.16 Brandon McGee, CB, Miami

5.27 Zac Stacy, RB, Vanderbilt

TJ McDonald is a bit of a reach but getting Tavon and Bailey really improves the WR core for Bradford. Adding the versitile Jones and super lber Ogletree knocks it out the park to me.

This was a team really deprived of a lot of talent and with one draft really improved dramatically. I would guess that they will reap the full rewards next season but Bailey is a very polished WR with Austin doing what he will do.

They will be more fun to watch at least.

    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
    • Supposedly he plans on staying in college for all 4 years.
