In my estimation, there were two clear winners in this year’s draft: the Jets and the Eagles. The Jets got, in my opinion, a future star quarterback along with a great backfield threat in Greene. Though I don't think that they will be a playoff threat this year, they are definitely on their way in the coming seasons.
The Eagles were clearly out to give Donavan McNabb some early Christmas presents. With the newly shored up offense, I think that the Eagles have officially placed their name in the Super Bowl contender hat.
On the other hand, the draft had two very clear losers: the Raiders and the Vikings. Why in the world would anyone draft Heyward-Bey when Michael Crabtree is still on the board? Oh…right… because Al Davis is senile, and won’t sit down, shut up, and let his coaching staff do their job.
As far as the Vikings are concerned, I fully expect to see them in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. I get that you need receivers, but do you really need Percy Harvin? This is a guy who failed the drug test at the combine. That’s right- at the combine- when you know it’s coming. It’s not like he didn’t know when and where he was going to be tested months beforehand. That tells me one of two things: either he’s a flat out idiot, or he’s completely addicted. Either way, I don’t want him on my team.
