1) Luck, Andrew (Colts)
2) Griffin III, Robert (Redskins)
3) Richardson, Trent (Browns)
4) Kalil, Matt (Vikings)
5) Blackmon, Justin (Jaguars)
6) Claiborne, Morris (Cowboys)
7) Barron, Mark (Bucs)
8) Tannehill, Ryan (Dolphins)
9) Kuechly, Luke (Panthers)
10) Gilmore, Stephon (Bills)

Browns should have drafted Blackmon; Tannehill is way too over rated.

    Bucs really torqued me off.

    Should have stayed put at Pick 5 for Claiborne

    At least they addressed their secondary issues, Need Linebacker next round.

    Overall opinion for Draft 2012......meh.

      Not sold on Claiborne; looks like he stays away from tackling. I think the Bucs did very well for Barron; I think you will be surprised, he's much better than Claiborne IMHO.

      Don't tell me your a Bucs fan
      I think we did ok for the first round, the rest of the picks will tell the story.
      I'm still all giddy over our new coaching staff, the free agents signed, and Ronde coming back though

        Second that,Bro.
        Hope that New staff uses Ronde to his strengths,He has lost a step, still can blast the QB off the edge.

        Oh, Yeah. Vincent Jackson! and that Big tough, Mo-Fo OT from the saints whose name escapes me.......oh,wahtever.

        Go "stress me the F out every game" Bucs!

          Picking up Jackson, Nicks, Wright, and Okoye in free agency was awesome
          I was just watching the draft selection on the bucs site and the nfl commentator made an interesting comment on Barron.
          He said best case scenario we got a pro bowl safety, worse case we got a pro bowl safety
          I don't know about Ronde losing a step, if he has he more then makes up for it in experience and passion.
          I got a strong feeling we won't be seeing the old Bucs this year

    Wow, the cardinals got themselves a great receiver in Floyd to compliment Larry Fitzgerald. Now if they can just get a QB....

    Not too happy with the Weeden pick by the Brownies, but I think the Titans picking Wright jacked up their plans.

    What a great QB battle we've got brewing in Cleveland: Colt the half-wit versus a guy a couple years away from being a WalMart greeter. And neither one has any talent to throw to...

    Damn Broncos...I wait all day for their pick and they trade down just when it gets to our turn.

    But...Every time I have even the slightest negative thought about my Broncos, I just remind myself "We got Peyton! We got Peyton!"

      Not a bad consolation prize.

      The Packers picked up Nick Perry to provide a rush opposite of Clay Matthews. I like the pick based on what I've read about him, but I haven't really seen him play other than a few highlight clips. Almost anyone can be to look good in highlight clips. Based on the team he's built, I gotta believe Ted Thompson just set up the Packers with their outside rush linebackers for years to come.

        Bucs are actually making really good decisions.

        After further look at Barron, This could be the best safety since John Lynch.

        And, OH MAMA!, Doug Martin.... Thank You Greg Schiano And Marc Dominik.

        I love the direction the team is heading.

        Now. Go get us a freaking Linebacker or two.

        note to Bucs: no more kickers ,please.

          Yep, Barron is a very good fit for the Bucs, Much better than Claiborne. Claiborne is afraid to tackle anyone at times.

          Ask and you shall receive, we picked up Nebraska linebacker Lavonte David.
          The Bucs got me scratching my head a lot this year.
          I don't remember a time that they put a package like this together. From the new coaching staff, free agent signings, veterans, and now draft picks? So far we've picked up an outstanding safety, running back, and linebacker, oh hell yeah

    Loving what the Pats did on defense. That front seven needed an injection of talent. Pick up an interior offensive lineman and a safety (by trading down preferably) and call it a draft.

    On Peyton Manning, let's not forget the ESPYs skit.

    After the season from hell...

    ... my team get the first pick and a new QB for the future and since I live in the D.C. metro area I'm going to enjoy seeing RG3 develop - I hope.

    He seems tailor made for the Shannhan offense.

      As a BIG fan of Shanahan (Broncos should never have fired him), RG3 is perfect for his offense.

      And let's not forget about the Skins other RG3...Rex Grossman is "RG 3 and out".
