Draft React Ability
April 30th, 2006
Five items of interest after tuning in and out of Day 1 of the NFL Draft ...
The Big Three
1. Houston fumbles the first pick. How you go with a defensive end at No. 1 overall when a guy like Bush is on the board is beyond me.
2. Leinart slides into the dream scenario. The predicted slide occurrs but ends with Phoenix where he'll stay in PAC-10 country, learn from Warner, throw to Boldin and Fitzgerald and handoff to Edge.
3. Washington loves the U. Washington 2nd-rounder Rocky McIntosh not only joins the Reggie Cleveland All-Stars but a squad featuring fellow 'Canes Taylor, Portis and Moss. These guys should totally record a song about runnin' trains. Too bad the 'Skins had to trade two 2nd-round picks and one late-round pick just to move up 18 spots to get him.
4. Chris Berman needs to take it down a notch. Aside from his grating personality, spoiling the picks before Tagliabue gets a chance to announce them is just inexcusable.
5. Tennessee gets some serious star power. Vince and LenDale with their top two picks means the star-craved Titans may have skill-position stars for the next 10 years.
