The NFL Draft Is Not Far Away

Well it’s that time of year when Football Nuts are almost in complete withdrawel pains.  The Super Bowl is a memory, next year is month’s away….what are you going to do for football?  Well many football fans really start to focus on the NFL Draft.  In fact I have been amazed at the attendance and also the television coverage of the draft these days.One of the interesting points about this year’s pro football draft is around the quarterback position.   There is not the abundance of talent compared to last year and probably the top two quarterback candidates are both coming off shoulder injuries. … Colt McCoy of Texas and Sam Bradford of Oklahoma.

Now some analysts that I have listened to have picked Bradford, a former Heisman winner to possibly be part of a trade involving the St Louis Rams and the overall number one pick in the draft.

Personally, I am not convinced that Bradford is an overall number one or worth a number one pick.  Don’t get me wrong, he is an excellent quarterback and I believe he will do well in the pros.  But I don’t think he is number one caliber.  Sorry to all you sooners.

Another story line is the possibility of a defensive lineman being the number one pick overall. We are talking about Ndamukong Suh from Nebraska.  This guy is incredible and I think his upside is even better.

I’ll be writing more about the Draft and not just because we don’t have much football to talk about right now.  But I’d be interested in hearing from all you Football Nuts out there about your thoughts on the Draft.

Until next time.
