Happy enough with the 9ers draft. It's very solid but not spectacular. Building the team that suits Kyle's offence and Saleh's defence.

Plus, watchibg the hawks flounder in the draft is always fun.

Can't argue with any WR the Steelers want to take with their track record. Washington looks the goods for what he'll be asked to do year one replacing Bryant as the WR3.

Same goes for OL guys, they've turned more than a few late round/UDFA guys into starters.

I'm not a Rudolph fan but he was good value in the 3rd I guess.

A bit miffed they skipped defensive players when that's clearly the weak side of the ball and there's snaps to be had all over the front seven. Okorafor and Rudolph won't see a snap til 2020 if everything goes to plan.

Seems like their plan is the same as the last few years...load up the O to try and outscore their opponents to makeup for the shoddy D.

They didn't even load up though. Washington isn't an upgrade over Bryant as we stand, Bell regressed last year and coming off another 1000 touch year. The 2 picks are probably 3rd stringers, wouldn't be surprised if Okorafor ends up on the practice squad. They must have a lot of confidence in what Randy Fichtner can do.

Having the best guard of a generation is a step up from having the best punter of a generation I guess.

Both nice to have, and both you only really notice if you have a terrible one.... and neither are worth a top 10 pick.

I knew this would come back to haunt me.

We took a punter and a long snapper....

Eagles picked up Mailata in the 7th. Be interesting to see how what he does training under Stoutland. Got to be better than running around at Souffs.

The coolest guy in the draft, all the others say what college, his just says Australia. No Brazil, no Russia. US college or Australia.
