And with them having him as the #17 on their entire draft board, I totally see the logic of moving up to make sure they got him.  Great pick.

But that's not the point of this thread;

who are we taking tomorrow?

DT, OT, TE, C, QB, WR

Then they'll sign 12-16 UFDAs for camp fodder within 24 hours after the draft.

Maybe, maybe Not.....

Good call, I never thought he would get out of the 3rd.

I missed Okam by one pick, but sounds like he wasn't the DT they wanted anyway. I had Justice who was ranked higher than Sullivan in more sights but he went way after.

Dixon/Brennan went 5th and 6th rounds, hard to believe Booty didn't go 2 to 3 rounds sooner, that pick feels like a 2nd or 3rd to me.

Packers took my guy Breno with the 150 pick they got from us.
