Dallas had a pretty bad draft this year. May make up for it in a big way next year.

I'll be cheering against the Bills in every game

I had hopes for Dallas when Steven Jackson was practically handed to them. Then they TRADE??? I don't get it.

I wasn't terribly impressed with their choices this year.

Steve McNair on has a couple years left in him, but i'd like to see Eli Manning in Tennessee within five years.

I'm soo excited that Eli went to the Giants. Did anyone see his girlfriend there with him? ....FYI: She's a cutie KD.

I felt sorry for him when they were booing. But it worked out for him. His family knows what they're doing when it comes to that kind of stuff.

And see, here I am HOPING they'd play the Chargers this year (but it looks like we play the Jets instead )

I'm not a super follower of the draft or anything, but my personal opinion is as Thrillhouse said, this isn't a mutual selection process...it's not like recruitment for GLOs (sororities, at least). If someone selects you, you should be proud of the opportunity to play, no matter where you're playing. As someone else said, Peyton was drafted by a losing team, and look at what he's done for the Colts. Maybe if Eli had stayed with the Chargers he'd do the same thing for them, as well.

to him....I hope it works out for him with the Giants, but you better believe I'd be one of those booing him if he ever played here

[Thrillhouse]

I'd have to say the best draft was Detroit. Worst was Cleveland or maybe Baltimore but the ravens didn't have many picks.

Well, this DG Alum supports Eli. If for no other reason that his Mom and I are both Anchor Girls!!

I've heard that almost all of the Manning men have married Delta Gammas. Is this true?? If so, they certainly have good taste!

The draft...I don't really do NFL football. My main concern was where the UGA boys went and if my beloved Billy Bennett gets to go pro.

Crazy couple of days to be a Giants fan; I thought they would go for Nat Dorsey over Snee, but hopefully he'll be a good weakside protector. Hopefully the linebackers and safeties they got later in the draft can help, they really needed to beef up at those spots.

I'll admit I was pretty upset with the Manning trade - it's a lot to give up, hopefully he ends up being as good as they think.

[mrblonde]

A lot to give up, indeed. At least youre not a Redskins fan, though...wed give what the Giants gave for Manning for someone like Ryan Leaf or Brian Bosworth

I work with one of Archie's siblings....yes they are a huge Delta Gamma family, Olivia Manning was a DG here at Ole Miss. I am not sure if Eli's big bro Cooper married a DG, I am pretty sure she didn't attend Ole Miss. And I don't know about Peyton. I do know that Eli is dating a KD from Ole Miss, she is adorable from what I hear and she is very dedicated to her man. I know Eli dated a Chi Omega a couple of years ago....oh and just to give you a break down of the Greeks in the family:

Olivia Manning-DG at Ole Miss
Archie Manning-Sigma Nu at Ole Miss
Eli Manning-Sigma Nu at Ole Miss
Cooper Manning-KA Order at Ole Miss
Peyton Manning--not sure if he was in a fraternity at UTK
LOTS OF DG Cousins and aunts!!!!!!
One AOII Aunt!!!!!

I cant stand any Manning.

[sigtau305]

Browns got Kellen Winslow . But I wish we drafted Robert Gallery Instead.

[UGAnchora]

Billy Bennett signed with the Panthers. Yay for Billy!

[cashmoney]

I hope he breaks his leg.
