Tackles 1 & 2 and two guards in the top 10. I don't think that's ever happened.

Four DT's in Mel's top seven available. Because none have been drafted yet.

You're probably right.

I would hope not. I would love for us to take Keenan Allen with the 25th pick. Go D with the 23rd, but I have been high on Allen. He's a big body, a deep threat and I believe a huge asset in the red zone. I believe he is the best receiver for our needs in this draft.

Interesting. Chargers take OT Fluker.

Stat running across the screen - SD had only four rushes of over 20 yards last season for the whole team. Didn't AD have four in one game?

This is looking really good for the Vikings, the runs are on our strong positions.

Wow what a reach. Oakland traded out 9 spots and can still get Floyd

It would be funny if the Jets took Nassib at #13 just to spite the Bills for letting the Rams get ahead of them to take Austin.

Yes. Let's hope the run on offensive linemen continue.
