Indeed I did, I also forgot McElroy. So a 5(6 if you include Simms) way fight to the death. That is unless the Jets feel like getting another QB or 2 for some stupid reason.
And I thought the Vikes had bad management.

I feel like the Bengals had a pretty good draft. Adding Eifert will give Dalton an option other than A.J. or Gresham (who seemed to start dropping every ball thrown his way last season).

Dolphins might be one of the fastest teams in the NFL this season. Everyone they drafted is a burner.
Certainly one of the fastest offenses. Take out Tavon Austin in the pic below and replace with Brandon Gibson (4.59, plays faster), Terrell Sinkfield (4.19 ... if he makes the team):

Very tidy looking Dolphins' offense. Cameron Wake and Dion Jordan should be a stellar pass-rushing duo especially when Wake will draw double-coverage leaving Jordan to run riot.
I'm still absolutely dumbfounded with how much the Vikings gave away to go and grab Cordarrelle Patterson - a talented prospect with many raw attributes. I merely see this as an impulsive grab to fill the void by Harvin and realising that Jennings is unlikely to go through the entire season uninjured. Nonetheless, many experts still say the Vikings had one of the better drafts out of the 32 teams.
I'm delighted for my Jaguars and loving Dave Caldwell's philosophy heading into this draft. Knowing that our defense were last in sacks last season, he prioritised building up a secondary where we lost four of our starters - Mathis (CB), Ross (CB), Cox (CB) and Landry (S) to free agency. Johnathan Cyprien my second favourite safety on my board and to get him in the Second Round was tremendous. Gratz is a solid pick but picking up Evans who was often overshadowed by Matt Elam's playmaking ability could well be the hard-hitting physical safety Gus Bradley is looking for.
Taking arguably the second best returner in Ace Sanders in the 4th after trading down with the Eagles and getting an extra 7th rounder was a great move by Dave and Gus. He is just raw speed and athleticism and us Jags have never had an elite returner with supreme speed. Special teams is often overlooked but the GM addressed this need perfectly. This pick made me feel even better knowing that we were just in front of the Patriots who in my mind were definitely about to take him after uncertain futures of Julian Edelman and Aqib Talib. Denard Robinson similarly in the 5th was a great steal and we have a tremendous looking WR depth chart at the moment: Blackmon, Shorts III, Massaquoi, Sanders, Robinson and Price.
All I'm waiting for now is either Jordan Rodgers to prove himself a roster spot worthy player or we go and grab Nick Foles if he gets cut.

How about not drafting punters in the 3rd round. Thank living god we got rid of Gene Smith.
Oh yeah with this Tebow Circus, you can stick to your words Dave and Gus. He's not worth the trouble.

Now that the draft's over, what are everybody's predictions for the 2013 NFL season?
Divisional Champions and Play-off Teams:
AFC East: New England Patriots
AFC North: Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers
AFC South: Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans
AFC West: Denver Broncos
NFC East: Washington Redskins
NFC North: Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers
NFC South: Atlanta Falcons
NFC West: Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers
AFC Championship Game: Pittsburgh Steelers @ New England Patriots
NFC Championship Game: San Francisco 49ers @ Detroit Lions
Superbowl: Steelers vs. Lions
Don't laugh at this, but the Lions finally break the curse and win a Super Bowl.
In other news, the Jets go 0-16.

You honestly think the 49ers won't make the playoffs? Hilarious. Steelers suck too. I'd be surprised if they won a wildcard spot. They'll have to win their division.
I have to watch preseason to let you know who I think is playoff bound. But it can't hurt to list the teams for now:
AFC East: Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots
AFC North: Cincinnati Bengals
AFC South: Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts
AFC West: Denver Broncos
NFC East: Washington Redskins
NFC North: Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings
NFC South: Atlanta Falcons
NFC West: San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks
I think the finals seeds in the AFC and NFC will be between the Colts and Ravens, and the Vikings and Saints, respectively.
Superbowl Miami v. San Francisco. And Miami wins just to troll Jim Harbaugh.

This is the new Vikings Stadium, I like it but don't see it aging well.
Looks like parking will still suck, at least I can take the train there.
They will also be playing outside at the Gophers stadium for 2 seasons, should be interesting.

Super Bowl L is coming to San Francisco. Super Bowl LI is coming to... Houston. I typed up this up on Facebook:
"Super Bowl LI is coming to Houston in 2017. While that's cool for Houston to host the Super Bowl again, having the Houston Texans make it to and (more importantly) win the Super Bowl would be even cooler."
I heard we beat out Miami to host Super Bowl LI. A Texans fan interviewed even gloated about Miami being unable to beat Houston. I would never brag on this level (honest!). Still, us Houstonians are jacked for 2017.

I was just wondering about that. Maybe FoolKiller can chime in regarding our league. You down to comish, Steve?
I can't wait for preseason to start. My favorite part of football is watching new guys come in and play well. Dion Jordan is going to be a freak for us. Thanks, Oakland.
