I don't know about anyone else, but I'm kinda getting the itch to do an NFL dynasty.

I'm going to do one over the summer starting starting with the 06 season, basically just using Madden 06 and simming a year and the offseason.

I'll have two months with nothing to do but workout and play video games. An apartment with two bedrooms and four people, that ought to be a joy come June.

At least it'll be something to keep me occupied, along with Rome: Total War of course.

Houston gets a great pick in Eric Winston. He was a projected 1st round pick before he got injured last season. Also, the Pack got Abdul Hodge, the bum from Iowa.

[Jami]

I like the Hodge pick by GB...adds depth at LB, which the Packers had none of.

[ChisAto]

DAMNIT. Arizona took Leonard Pope RIGHT BEFORE THE BEARS. Now i feel like what DB felt like in the first round, and the second round as well with Justice..

It's a lot different when you had the CHANCE to take the franchise QB but didn't...but it's comparable to Winston Justice. Yes. Feel the pain.

Man DB, why did Matt Millen start drafting for the Bears??? . We need offense! Why we are trying to improve the 2nd best defense in the league and leaving the 29th best offense to rot is a good question!

Two words:

Steve Smith.

There's your reason for starting your draft with 3 corners.

2 corners and a DT . Brian Calhoun to the Lions.

[detroitbasketball]

Brian Calhoun goes to the Lions. First pick of the day I like. Still no help for the O-line, but I can live with this one.

[OG Brand C]

Oh man, Detroit just drafted Wisky stat filler Brian Calhoun.

[Jami]

BC's a good receiver, and is deceptively powerful for his size. He has a way of slipping through small holes in the line, too...should be a good change of pace from Kevin Jones.

[detroitbasketball]

With this pick, Detroit's day one draft grade goes from Z- to Z+.

[ChisAto]

Green Bay takes a center from Louisville

[Jami]

Some guy named Spitz goes to the Packers. Once again, Derek Hagan would be a good pick that I could appreciate.

[ChisAto]

Anthony Schegal out of OSU goes to the Jets. And the Rams take an OLB named J. Alston out of Stanford.

[McGahee]

Bills goin defensive this draft. A SS, DT, and CB so far. I can't complain, although I would have liked to see an offensive linemen taken by now...

[OG Brand C]

Hmm, Chicago picks Dusty Dvoracek. Brings a smile to my face.

[Jami]

No! Miami stole Derek Hagan! Stovall's still available, isn't he?

Charlie Whitehurst goes to San Diego as insurance on Philip Rivers...not a horrible pick IMO.

[Jami]

Brandon Williams goes to the 49ers...I was hoping the Packers would get him in like the 4th or 5th round. Has a future in the NFL as a return man and a slot receiver.

[bearcat]

Brodie to the Chiefs! That's a BIG surprise...
