What picks surprised you on day 1?

[Floatyworm]

Picks I didn't get.........

Detroit Lions- Eric Ebron, TE North Carolina. With Taylor Lewan on the board..and they pass?

New York Giants- Odell Beckham Jr., WR LSU . They have Cruz, Randle, Manningham and Jernigan and had to have Beckham? Passed on Aaron Donald? Why?

Pittsburgh Steelers- Ryan Shazier, LB Ohio State. Don't see how he fits in a 3-4

Kansas City Chiefs- Dee Ford, DE Auburn. They had so many other needs....CB, WR

Surprised these players didn't go Day 1

Timmy Jernigan, NT Florida State .....Was it the +drug test?
Marqise Lee, WR USC......Too high maintenance ala Chad Johnson?
Derek Carr, QB Fresno State.....Can't out run the shadow of his brothers failures
Carlos Hyde, RB Ohio State.....Will we ever see a RB get drafted in the 1st round again?
Xavier Su'a-Filo, G UCLA.......Thought for sure he was going to Denver to replace Zane Beadles
Stephon Tuitt, DE Notre Dame.......Seahawks trade down...and might still get their guy

The Bills gave up too much.

The Bills gave up too much.

I don't know if they did or not. Look @ the Julio Jones trade for Atlanta. Think Atlanta has any regret? If the Bills can trade Stevie Johnson for a 4th...then I think they will be ok in the deal.

If we did that I would have been livid. If we badly needed a WR I would have been content to wait and take Beckham.

at first, I thought it was curious about ford to KC, but the more I thought of it, he has high boom potential (IMO)...beckham was early, I will give you that...but, he does have talent and perhaps their idiot QB needs more people to target? I get he feeling that NY had someone to catch the ball in mind and when Ebron was gone, they went next best on their list...on shazier, some of the posts/threads are suggesting that Pittsburgh heard dallas was on the phone with him and took him...I like shazier but not there, so I agree with you

I am surprised that the Jaguars took Bortles at #3. Too high imo.

Jawuan James to Dolphins @ 19. Marcus Smith to Eagles

 

[DBOY3141]

Eagles pick

 

[Gaede]

I understand the Dolphins pick. It was wpied clean, so though I was a reach, it still makes sense.

Marcus Smith and Deone Buchanon in the first round I don't understand

 

[Oh_Canada]

Eagles and Marcus Smith....wha?????

Dolphins reaching for the wrong lineman. If they were that desperate for one they should have taken Moses or moved up for Martin.

Panthers crapping the bed on Benjamin.

Jags being the Jags.

Yeah, several head scratchers....pretty entertaining overall though.

 

[MonsterD]

Maybe the Steelers are going to have Shaznier drop 15 lbs and he will play S? I dunno.

 

[DFWJC]

Jawuan James to Dolphins @ 19. Marcus Smith to Eagles

Yes. These two for sure.

 

[Sydla]

The two safeties were a big surprising - Buchanon and Ward. I thought both those guys might be there at our 2nd round pick.
