I'd love to see Rudy go as early as you guys are saying, but there seems to be a lot of momentum for him ending up in Denver. They have a lot of ND guys, and apparently they're lobbying hard for him. Plus, DEN doesn't have a TE.

So you think Denver takes him early in the 2nd or waits and prays that he is still there at #14? The Rams are picking #15 and I wouldn't be surprised if they either traded up to try to grab Rudolph OR let Denver grab him and picked up a WR with that pick. In no way do I see Rudy slipping past that #14/#15 spot.

Denver trades down and it looks like Rudy will go between #13-#15.

Browns not taking Ayers has made me pretty upset... hopefully time will prove me wrong on that one.

I'm pissed. I hate the Vikes. And now, they have one of my favorite football players of all time.

Rudy just got taken by the Vikings. Good for him. Best of luck.

He stays for his Senior year and is healthy, he doesn't fall past pick 15 in the 2012 draft.

Crossing my fingers that Leonard Hankerson from "the U" falls into the Bears lap. He'll be a steal.

Poor St. Louis... they needed a TE and were *this* close to getting Rudy. To those wondering why draft Rudy with Shiancoe still around it's because Shiancoe only has one year remaining on his contract and is getting older. Much more cost effective to grab a great value pick in Rudy and have overlap for a year. And you can never have too many TEs when you:

1. Love to run the ball.
2. Are bringing in a rookie QB.

Redskins both totally ****ed up AND handed the Giants the two picks they should have taken. Wow. To think the Skins could've grabbed Prince and Austin AND a 2nd round WR... but instead ended up with some ACC chump + Kerrigan and traded their other pick all the way out of 2nd round makes me want to vomit.

If they grab Mallet in the 4th + a RB + WR it *may* all work out though.

Wow Mallet falls into a great situation. But who would had thought he'd go 74th in the draft prior to this year.

I have no idea what the Redskins are doing. Neither does Mr. Daniels, Davaris' dad and current Redskin. His tweets are hilarious. No idea what his team is doing.

5 picks away from being able to grab Mallet and redeem themselves.... team is totally ****ed now. No one in Washington has any idea what's going on. It's beyond frustrating. Snyder needs to sell the team.

Hankerson? Seriously? What a terrible freaking reach of a pick.

Jeff George 2.0

Actually, unless he's an utter trainwreck of character issues, he can sit behind Tom Brady and learn from the best in the business, then handle the reigns once the HOF veteran leaves. It worked perfectly for Aaron Rodgers.

Mallett has the physical tools, that's for sure.

I'd be happy if the Lions took Darrin Walls in the 7th, though that probably isn't very likely.
