Sounds like the top 3 right now is shaping up to be Newton, Miller, Gabbert. Let's see if it stays that way

I can't remember the last time a draft was soo unpredictable. It's just now starting to look like Newton will go number 1, but like I heard today, the Panthers like 4 guys pretty much equally here...By this time last year the Rams were negotiating with Sam Bradford.

And for us last year there was about 4 options as to who we could get, this year theres like several. I'm excited when it's etched in stone tonight as to who the hell we'll pick.

Heard this morning that the Panthers and Newton are working on the parameters of a contract. So it looks like he's locked in, almost

I would expect that from Kate or John.

If we take Ponder at 10, it would be as bad as DHB for Oakland

Well, at least the lack of free agency is f'ing up everyone's draft. But yeah it'd be pretty bad.

Yeah, is it wrong for me to all of a sudden not like Kaepernick? I was rooting for the team to pick either Dalton, Ponder, or Kaepernick but since the Raiders are interested in Kaepernick it tells me he's not worth it. All they do is take the fastest player, or freak. In this case I'm sure it's because he's 6ft 6. but everyone they choose usually ends up being a dud.

If it weren't for some of Al Davis' crazy 1st & 2nd round picks, the Raiders would be a pretty talented team. they've done pretty well overall, but there team has been set back by taking guys like Heyward-bey & Russell, and that unknown safety in the 2nd. But, they have built a decent roster otherwise, e.g. they drafted Heyward-bey in the 1st but got Louis Murphy in the 4th I think. the latter has made an impact.
