[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 907580, member: 12283"] In the division... [B]Chicago: [/B]Pace/Nagy are taking a huge swing to save their jobs. If they don't find success with Fields immediately, they're probably done. This is why it makes sense that they mortgaged the future to get Fields, and then a little more to get Jenkins. I really like fields, and so do a lot of really smart people I read. However, the NFL did not like him as much as the media. If you're going to flail to save your butt, I think this was a good way to do it. I hope it doesn't work. [B]Vikings: [/B]I don't like this draft much for the Vikings. Darrisaw is a nice addition, if the concerns about his effort and attitude don't materialize. But I think taking day 2 QB's is basically burning a pick. Chazz Surratt may be talented, but he's raw due to being new to the linebacker position while also currently being 24 years old. That gets a big no from me. [B]Detroit: [/B]In terms of players picked, I think the Lions had one of the best drafts in the league. Sewell should be a great tackle for them. I think both DT's can play-- Onwuzurike and McNeill.
