I'm starting a live thread. Draft is on now. San Francisco is on the clock.

It is getting sad watching those shots of him every five minutes. So much for that huge signing bonus.

[MikefromOhio]

I think so....

he is the reason Jason White looked so good some days for Oklahoma....

[duck duck goose]

I feel the same way. I tried to keep "Chuck"awake..but she isnt having any part of it. I guess I will wake her later with the good news (hopefully).

[No Blue States]

Gotcha, see reply. ;)

[Dog Gone]

Jason White might be playing in Canada, unlike Mike Williams.

[mainepatsfan]

Speaking of which White's tackle just went to the Saints.

[Steelerfan]

Or not....

I am loving this draft as a Steeler fan

[Txsleuth]

Dang, I thought they moved up to get Johnson!

They could have waited to get Jamal Brown....doncha think?

[mainepatsfan]

It's not bad from a Pats fan perspective either.

[MikefromOhio]

yep....I think Barron will end up being better, but Brown isnt a horrible pick either....

[MikefromOhio]

yeah just a bit

[WinOne4TheGipper]

I'm listening to ESPN radio and they're saying Carolina wanted him opposite Gross.

[Tadhg]

If he falls any further he might be playing down the street in Oakland and throwing to Porter and Moss....

[mainepatsfan]

Barron has more potential but Brown is solid as well.

[MikefromOhio]

if he's lucky....

[commish]

They apparently were hearing that Carolina was going to take Brown and wanted to jump ahead of the panthers.

[Dog Gone]

With any luck, Johnson will fall to the 20th pick.

Somebody has to pick Rodgers as a pity pick before long...

[MikefromOhio]

yep....

there aren't any Orlando Pace's this year....

[MikefromOhio]

so expect the Panthers to take their time in making their next selection...

I would go with defense here....

[mainepatsfan]

I've noticed those tackles taken very high usually don't become busts.
