I think the chiefs did the best. They got defenders with all 3 picks in the 1st and 2 rounds. 2 linemen to which is what they needed the most. I was thinking they were going to go for a qb 1st or 2nd round but they stayed with the defense which was probably best.

The Chiefs did the best....they had a s-pile of picks to work with and did very well with them.

I'm still quite undecided on how the Steelers did.....I do like their first two picks though.....I just hope they work out.

I picked the Steelers only because their first two picks were absolute steals for where they went. Mendenhall was projected much earlier than 23 and Limas Sweed was also late first round to early second as a projection. Great steals IMO. If they could only address the O-line. KC had an awesome draft also.

Have you seen a team suck more than the Bears??? Why didn't they get a QB!!!!Yes, the excuse is talent wasn't the thing this year for such position, but when you have talent like Orton and Grossman home, you definetely know that's not something the Bears care about.

Sincerely, I was expecting them to have a 3rd pick in a QB, and I guess things would work much better.

Well, I'll have to sit down and watch another disappointing seasson and hope we get one of the first 5 picks next year (Angelo might draft a kicker then, but I hope he's fired before that lol)

Did anyone else think that the trade the Panthers made was really dumb. They traded there 1st round draft pick next year and i think 2 other picks to move up. that just seemed dumb to me. anyone else agree or eas it a good move because i don't follow college football the way i should.

Actually I have seen a team suck far worse than the Bears. The Lions. Yes the Bears had a bad season. They did lose to the Lions twice in 07. However, they were in the Superbowl in 2006. The Lions have taken sucking to a new level. Matt Millen is 31-81 in 7 seasons as GM. That is 50 games under .500. I am relatively sure no other GM in NFL history has come close to that.

That said, I think I like the Lion's draft this year. It lacks sex appeal, but it looks to be solid. They actually went in and filled some needs. OT, MLB, DE, RB, DT and Kick Return. Unfortunately for them, the two guys they had highest on their board were Harvey who Jacksonville moved up to take and the cheating ass Patriots took Mayo. The best fit for them was Cherilus the big Right Tackle. The line has been the worst in football for a long time, thus the 31-81 record. They finally used a high pick to address it. They went this year with mostly guys who had very good careers, not just guys that had a great combine or pro day. Since they are the Lions, I will hold off on my optimism as they are likely to rip out my heart and show it to me before they stomp it into the ground.

The Vikings are the only team that got a true ProBowl player with their first round pick. Granted they traded the pick to get him, but I hate the idea of having to face Jared Allen twice a year.

isn't that ashame what he got, I mean even at BC he threw alot of INT's and personally speaking other then maybe Flacco of the Ravens this seasons QB class was weak imho, so he was the best by default if you ask me and not worth it, I think he finishes somewhere in between Manning and Leaf...say like a Jake Plummer type

yeah but Booty did run a NFL style Offense at USC and they were/are a huge National Program.....he could very well be the best QB in this class.....when all is said and done

That said, USC tends to turn out system players more than pure NFL types like Miami or Ohio State do. That's my worry with Sam Baker at LT (although I liked the pick).

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
