I'm stoked for today. Although nothing can beat yesterday's picks, I'm anxious to see what happens.

Diomedes · April 30, 2006, 10:09:31 AM

One of the reasons I usually dig the second day is that, compared to the first day, there's usually more action and it moves along at a faster pace. Except yesterday was full of action and moved along nicely. Let's hope today is more of the same.

Yesterday I took a nap cause I had a long night before, and I woke up and saw a Winston Justice thread on here and I was estatic.

Yup, I was shocked as to how fast the first round went yesterday. I was a lot happier when I started watching NFL Network over those assclowns on ESPN. Cripes they talk too much.

If you're going to suffer people talking too much, why not just hang out here? We made fifty pages of garbage talk like it was nothing!

So am I, there are some really good players out there and the Eagles could pick up a couple of guys that could see some PT early. There are also guys that are projects out there like Reggie McNeal, Robinson, and Brad Smith.

Susquehanna Birder · April 30, 2006, 11:11:28 AM

Besides WR, I'm looking for some DB and KR help today. And a project QB, naturally.

Diomedes · April 30, 2006, 11:12:51 AM

Houston took Owen Daniels, TE out of Wisconsin to get us started on the day.

Dillen · April 30, 2006, 11:13:10 AM

Eagles traded up to pick 99.

Dillen · April 30, 2006, 11:13:56 AM

Eagles picked OG Max Jean Gilles.

Diomedes · April 30, 2006, 11:14:00 AM

Jesus. Let's see who they are after..

Susquehanna Birder · April 30, 2006, 11:14:12 AM

Jean-Gilles. Awesome!

Feva · April 30, 2006, 11:14:15 AM
