Pack is on the clock, who do you like here Harvey?

[Bretsky]

HARVEY,

GIVE ME FIVE NAMES THAT SHOULD BE GONE BY NOW.

[packrulz]

Setterstrom is still slipping, wow.

[Guiness]

if you notice, big will has been silently fuming over the last two days at the comments made by others. when he discussed the character issue the other "commentators" derided his comments. when will explained lendale white was sliding so far because teams might question his ability to stay in shape, torry holt and trent green beat him up bigtime, all the while kissing up to lendale and making excuses for him. so far, will is the only guy on the espn set that's willing to tell the truth. i'm glad he finally ripped into their bullshit.

Didn't see the part with Holt and Green. You'd think two vetrans who have survived this long in the league would be on board with the 'it takes a lot of hard work and commitment' thing. Although maybe they were worried White might be a future teammate, and didn't want to start out on the wrong foot.

Hendo can call out Kipper if he wants, but I'm not so sure he should be dissing players coming into the league while he still plays in it. That's bad karma.

Damn, I wanted Harv's DE!!!

QB Ingle Martin
Height: 6-foot-3
Weight: 219 pounds

Pros: An accurate thrower with the touch to deliver all the passes, and showed improvement in the deep game during his final season. He has above-average arm strength to make most throws and is especially effective on the short and intermediate routes, leading the receivers to make plays after the catch. He delivers the ball with good velocity, timing and touch with the ability to hang in the pocket and make the tough throw. He is a competitive, hard-working and tough player who shows the ability to direct an offense.

Cons: He has outstanding upside as a passer, but has a learning curve that will take time. A versatile athlete who is still raw as a passer and needs work on his mechanics, footwork, decision-making and defense recognition. Tough prospect with the athleticism to back up two positions and possibly start as a punter.

Numbers: At the Combine, he ran a fine 4.65 with a 36-inch vertical jump and 9-foot, 3-inch broad jump. As a senior, he completed 212 of 349 pass attempts for 61 percent, a school-record 2,959 yards and 20 TDs, while leading Furman to an 11-3 record and Division I-AA playoffs semifinal appearance. He accounted for another school record 3,191 yards in total offense.

Damn! Two guys I liked, OG Chris Kuper of North Dakota and DE Mark Anderson of Alabama just got drafted.

[Scott Campbell]

Henderson is ESPN’s worst nightmare, an articulate, team oriented guy…with a brain. Too Funny.. Kiper gets outed as the fool he is...

If I were a producer at ESPN, I'd pull the tape from that draft and air Kiper's comments. And then let Kiper respond. It'd make for great TV.

Packer's are almost on the clock. Who do we want???

Brandon Williams? Jonathon Orr? DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE ?!?!?

[Partial]

If we can get a starting DE out of the rest of our picks, I will be very, very, very, very, very, very pleased. Our defense will be downright solid. I hope they play Blackman on both O and D. He's a stud. A flat out mother freakin' baller.

Kiper wasn't even in that studio. Henderson said I know you can hear me but he wasn't there. Besides, when you cover the draft every year, year after year you're gonna make some mistakes and undervaluing Henderson clearly was one. He's been a very solid player for many years.

Feels like a smash mouth kind of draft. Seems like all the guys are playing with a chip on their shoulders

[packrulz]

I think it's a good draft, especially Hawk & Hodge, don't know about some of the others but they sound like good high character guys.
