What teams had the best Drafts

[MadMarchHare]

Gotcha - I'm still bitter I dumped Galbraith from my list last year.

Houston (two top defensive players, offensive line upgrades and no redundancy of positions)
NYJets (The best LT and C in the draft)
Arizona (Leinart at 10, Gabe Watson in the 4th, Pope to add to their already ridiculous receiving weapons)
Philly

I really liked what Denver did.

Here's part of an article by Gary Myers from the NY Daily News, on the trade the Jets tried to make to get Leinart---


The Lions were willing to move down to the No. 29 spot, the second of the Jets' two No. 1 picks, which they had acquired in the John Abraham trade. The Jets offered that pick, plus their third-round pick at No. 71, for No. 9, clearly not enough. But when the Lions demanded the Jets' second-round pick (35th) in addition to the first- and third-rounders, talks broke down and the Lions selected linebacker Ernie Sims.

The cost to move up the 20 spots is more than the 29th and 71st picks, and the Jets surely knew that, but their unwillingless to part with the second-rounder didn't leave any room for negotiating. If the Jets had given up those three picks, the Lions would have had to part with a later pick to make things even on the draft value chart all teams use.


The Lions would have given them 9 and 106, which they eventually traded to the Pats.

Buffalo Bills -- B+
I'd like to beat up the Bills for reaching on safety Donte Whitner, but they redeemed themselves with picks such as defensive tackle John McCargo, cornerback Ashton Youboty and defensive tackle Kyle Williams.

So the Bills make up for reaching for Whitner by reaching for John McCargo?!
