But in all seriousness, I want to reserve judgement on the pick unless it is completely terrible or awesome.
If they pick Knowshon, I'll be ecstatic, but other than that I wont get too excited or too dissapointed with the pick because I know that Andy Reid always does something that you dont expect. I'm not going to worry about something I can't control.

If you told me we were going to draft Maclin before the draft I wouldn't have liked it, but now that it happened I really like the pick. It is a great value pick imo. We get the 2nd best WR in this draft who is arguably a top 10 talent at 19 and it fills a need. The pick keeps McNabb happy by giving him more weapons and adds another dimension to our offense. Yes Maclin is somewhat similar to Jackson, but now we have two speedy receivers with good hands and who have the ability to get down field and when you throw in Kevin Curtis it is a great young corps.
I love the McCoy pick too. It fills a big need by giving us a good backup to Westbrook. I loved McCoy every time I got a chance to Pitt play. Two solid picks.
A few guys I want us to target in round 3 are Cook, Nelson and Michael Johnson........

I think Tupuo's pick is underrated, especially if the team is planning on cutting Justice. I think Tupuo was one of the top RT only prospects, and I really like what he brings to the table.
The Gibson pick was very good too, there were a lot of people upset when we got him. I think he has a realistic shot at making the team, even though our WR positions are loaded.
I too would've preferred Coffman, but once again we got much better value out of the draft and picking Ingram, who will really stretch the field. If he is healthy, we have two threats at TE.
I love the Harris pick, wherever he ends up. I'm kind of hoping they keep him at CB, because I think he can be a similar player to Sheldon, though he takes a few more chances than him. He has better ball skills to make up for it though.
This draft was easily my favorite in a while.Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir is a goddess
