Good pick. My teams did not have the need. Phillips was one of 3 guys that I considered to be top 100 players who were still on the board to start this round. One left who has yet to be picked in this draft... [Reply]

Strongly considered him for the Saints. Went CB instead. I'd be happy seeing him in red next season. [Reply]
The Green Bay Packers select Davion Taylor, LB, Colorado
Taylor is the 2nd CU Buffalo the Packers have drafted. No, I'm not a CU homer. I have zero connection to that place other than they used to be in the Big 12.
Packers get a very nice high upside player at this point in the draft. It will be a bit of a puzzle for them to figure if they want him inside or outside. Very raw, not much experience, but seems like a good kid. They'll throw everything at him and see if he takes to playing inside or outside-- the Packers could use both. [Reply]
The Chiefs rush to the draft podium, having received a pm from the 49ers that they're up. Goodell stops them because he only lets the patriots do that. [Reply]
Pandemonium breaks out. The Chiefs are at the podium, the 49ers are nowhere to be found, and there's still a live manatee from the Buccaneers' previous pick on the stage, surrounded by strippers and Boomer Grigsby. Goodell has lost control of the process. [Reply]
The oldest man in Florida drives his red Mercedes through the wall of the arena, narrowly missing the Buffalo Bills table. Walt Disney's severed head laughs uproariously. [Reply]
