Artie, the short bus comments are inappropriate. As an educator and someone who's had to help raise a child with special needs, I find it...well...inappropriate.
Teufeli, the physical threats are also unwelcome and potentially illegal. Aren't you the one who stated that there were people on this forum acting like children?
Folks, we all root for the same team. It's OK to be disappointed with a draft pick, not OK to take personal shots at each other. By doing so, you keep other people from posting.
This isn't my favorite draft so far. I like having a breakaway threat in Felix. But, is he truly a breakaway threat? I read somewhere that he ran a 4.47. IS that really very fast or did I get the time wrong? One thing I do like about him is his vision. Backs with good vision do not seem to take as many clean hits. I think this is VERY important. I am glad we picked up a RB in the first. I may be the only fan alive that isn't completely sold on Barber. He runs with abandon but, well, the truth of the matter is that I can't put my finger on it. I won't mind eating a healthy portion of crow if I'm wrong but I don't feel like he's the long-term answer at RB. Perhaps I'm just cautious because of how hard I bought into Julius after his rookie year. Afraid to be hopeful, if you will.
The Jenkins pick offered great value at the 25 spot. Like many, I wish we had not had to trade up to get him. If he pans out, he will be more than worth it.
I was initially amazed at the TE pick. I made the wrong assumption that we didn't need a TE since we were willing to get rid of Fasano. Someone on here mentioned that Jason Garrett may have played a hand in these series of transactions. So be it. I'll be rooting hard for the guy.
So what does day two hold for us? I'm hoping for a WR or two, a FB, a guard (probably earlier than most of you..even next if it were up to me), a DT and a QB late. I have more wants left than we have picks.
