    Who are Your biggest winners & losers of the NFL Draft?

    I like what the Vikings & Rams did as a whole.

    Losers, thought Dallas had a rough draft.

    Another loser were the fans. Having to sit through days of Jon Gruden bickering with Ray Lewis and Mel Kiper (who looks like a cross between a wizard and a sorcerer now) was bad enough. They also had to sit through bad promo after bad promo like the Barry Sanders awkwardly reading a Madden promo... then were treated to two dudes making out.

    Rams without a doubt had the best draft.

    No idea wtf Seattle did. That shit looks horrible but history says its hard to talk shit on their drafts so ill give it a pass for now .

    9ers did well as did the jags. Oh and Oakland nailed it, finally

    The only winner is Johnny football and the Cleveland Browns

    It's very hard to say as you do not know who will be good in the future

    At this time, the Rams appear to have had the best draft, but that is in part because of the number of people they took. Cleveland is the big loser because they could have had much more in the first 3 rounds than they ended up with. Buffalo also had a very questionable draft, especially moving up for what amounts to a very iffy 1st round pick. This was certainly not the strongest draft for sure.

    Rams/Jags winners. Love what the Steelers did as well.

    Dolphins losers.

    This is as pointless as a mock draft. Not one single person has a fukkin clue how these picks will turn out.

    Check back in 5 years.

    Hey motherfukker.....I didn't appreciate him listing Dallas as a "loser" in this draft.

    If he would've had them as one of his "winners", I would've been all up in this thread.

    For what it's worth, I like what they did. Like the Martin and Lawrence picks. Devin Street is injury prone but has size and skills. Could have used more secondary help but at least they went mostly D. I do love to speculate.

    They win for not taking Manziel. Listing them as a winner doesn't get anyone's blood boiling either.

    Really surprised they didn't take Donald and went with Barr. Watched Donald single-handedly win the game versus Syracuse...in the backfield literally every single play he was in for and not against some garbage OL. No clue how he fell to 13. Had 20 more reps than Barr, pretty much same 40 time. Those numbers can be overrated but the guy is a freak of nature. Vikings and a lot others gonna regret that one, guy would be my number two behind Clowney in my armchair quarterback opinion.

    Do like getting Bridgewater where they did.

    Lol Torrey Smith isn't half the player that Sammy Watkins wil be in this league. Dez Bryant a much better comp.

    Agree Jags did well. bortles, whether he pans out, will put butts in seats in Jax which is something they needed badly there and really is the only reason they do this. Giving him a couple of targets in a market that won't have a "win now" mentality is perfect. They will let them all mature together and see what happens.

    My bears had a average draft but did draft the fastest punter at the combine last 8 years or something so we got that going for us.

    Iffy in the fact that they gave up way too much to move up a few spots. Watkins cannot do it all. This move will really cost Buffalo, a team that has a lot of problems all ready.

    Falcons had a good draft. Got help in both lines and shored up the defense.

    Most people would say that the Bears had the BEST draft of the NFL North teams. Vikings fans who think they did so well are in for a very rude awakening.

    You don't have much hope for Bridgewater?

    I'm just happy the Vikes got their pick in on time

    Bears had a great draft. Minnesota hinges on Bridgewater. Green Bay OK. Detroit another horseschit draft.

    minny has investments in shariff floyd and linval joseph up the middle...losing a guy like allen...they needed guys from the outside who can pressure....donald and barr are two different players...and i thought barr was a reach but i could be wrong as speilman usually seems to know what hes doing

    st louis now has a scary, scary, pass rush from up the middle and outside....brockers and donald inside...quinn and long outside with ogeltree also.....and now depending on the health of jake long....they may have long and robinson at tackles with saffold moving inside to guard now....or even long and barskdale with both saffold and robinson inside at guard.....st louis might have the best set of interior lines in the game
