Anyone about to check out the NFL draft?

Post by nick91884 » Thu Apr 26, 2012 4:02 pm

If so what are you favorite NFL and College Team(s). And do you have anyone you really want your team to pick?

I was born and raised in San Diego so I'm a big Chargers fan. As far as college is concerned I'm a diehard Oregon Ducks fan!

Looks like the Browns traded up to the #3 pick in the draft (originally the vikings)

Roger Goodell is introduced to a ton of Boos, I think that happens every year

I don't really sit through the draft, but keep up on results. I am a big college fan (Michigan is my team, but I follow closely everyone nationally).

I am a casual NFL fan - Cincinnati Bengals. I am pleased with their two first round picks. Filling two positions that need attention (DB was the biggie). This draft was even sweeter because their first pick was for trading Carson Palmer to Oakland. :D

Yeah, too bad for the bengals oakland barely missed the playoffs, cinci would have another first rounder next year as well.

I am happy with the chargers pick, they definitely need the help on defense.

Crazy, I was born and raised in san diego, big charger fan as well...now I live in corvallis oregon. It's a small world. (though i wouldn't call myself a beaver fan...or a college football fan. I'm all about the NFL)

The chargers did very well in the draft it seems. If we can just get special teams to improve and if norv will let rivers get into a rhythm instead of making him hand off or throw dump off passes 4 out of 6 plays like last year we should be good. I'm big into fantasy football. I'm ready for the season to start.

Yeah I really like the defense heavy draft for them I hope it pays off.

I also am a big fantasy fan and usually end up in at least 3 leagues. I can't wait for football season.

As for college ball, I can see where you're coming from. The ranking system, the bowls, theres not a true champ (the teams that play in the national championship are voted on, its not like a playoff where they earn their spot) in college football which is hard to swallow coming from an NFL only background but the fans have won me to the darkside and I love going to ducks games! Also watching college ball definitely makes the draft alot more interesting because I watched all these guys last fall, and I'm interested to see where they go and what their futures hold. And one more thing, it wasn't enough to just have sundays and college saturdays fills my weekend football void!
