Can I be the first to say that I couldn't care less what you think?

Wait, you come here laying down a general statement but want everyone else to waste their time defending theirs?

How about you go first and I'll follow up Jr. Don't start something you have no intention or ability to finish.

I was specific. I said NONE of the players after Claiborne excite me, with the possible exception of the TE. I think Crawford is an OK pick that might turn into something. I think we got nothin 3rd, 4th, 5th pick.

Which player? You want me to run through them all? The only one I'm cold on is Wilber.

DOn't justify it man. If he came here with some statements besides, "I dont like it" and explained why he does not like player A, B or C it would of been commendable and respectable and deserved an educated response. Thus this is not the situation. Your going to spend a lot of time giving an informed response and it's going to fall on deaf ears with no response.

Eh...I think he just doesn't know anything about any of these players, so is underwhelmed. Once you learn about them, it's easy to get excited.

This is actually almost exactly where I'm at.

I worry about Wilber, and I wonder at the placement (not necessarily the selection, since I don't know enough about them) of some of the others.

But do the players themselves worry me, do I feel like we left incredible value on the board? I'm questioning myself since half the guys I was screaming for us missing out on are still on the board as we move into the 7th round.

I feel pretty good.

the only reason you dont like the draft is because they drafted people you did not know. Nobody knew who tom brady was or victor cruz was and look how they turned out. I have no problem drafting people with high motors and dedication.
