So which team improved themselves the most with this draft. Which team was a draft genius? Who needs to sit in the corner with the dunce cap on? Let's hear it!

I know my Bills really didnt do what I had hoped. I think Houston and New Orleans really helped themselves. But I was surprised Mario Williams went #1 in the draft over Bush. And Leinhart going 10th was a shocker to.

I think in Leinhart's case it was good that he did go to Arizona. He would have overwhelming pressure with the Jets or Titans. In Arizona, he has weapons on offense and a MVP in Kurt Warner to learn from plus Dennis Green's offensive minded system. As for the Bills, I hoped the would have grabbed Leinhart or Cutler with the 8th pick. I'm still not sold on J.P. Losman. But day 2 is just getting started. Maybe things will shake up.

Yeah, there's a few teams out there that greatly needed a QB and didn't get one like the Bills and Jets. Really surprised the Jets didn't get one. Lol, yeah, surprised Mario Williams went number one and could make like 9 million a year now too, lol, way too much money, and they could of had Bush or a QB, lol.
Saints are lucky to get Reggie Bush, he could be their savorer, and after all that city has gone through maybe they deserve a Reggie Bush, something positive, Barry Sanders? All the teams should of been trying to get that pick to get Bush, he was the best player in the draft.
The Titans did real good to get RB White from USC too considering how late they got him. He actually had more yards and TDs in his career than Bush surprisely and more TDs than him this year, lol. Yeah I know he's over weight, but he'll get back in shape I think. He would of been perfect for the Steelers after losing Bettis.
Unfortunity I think the Eagles did well in the draft.
I think the Steelers did great trading down to draft the top WR in the draft especially considering they lost Randel El so that was exactly what they needed.
But I think the Broncos did the best getting QB Cutler, which means they won't put up with Plummer anymore if he slips (or chokes) again. Then getting one of best WRs in football (and young) in Javon Walker (hopefully he'll be healthy and just as good). So hopefully the Broncos will make a serious push this year.

The Broncos did good and surprisingly so did the 49ers. Getting TE Vernon Davis & DE/OLB Manny Lawson was huge for them. Alex Smith got his security blanket for the passing game.

Arizona did well but which team(s) does everyone think did a poor job in the draft?

So true Ice the Cards are going to be a intresting team next season with the latest additions. And I still am baffled as to why the Texans left Bush on the boards in favor of Mario. But what Im wondering is will the Saints be able to afford Bushs contract.

Good point. Reggie's agent will ask for the richest rookie contract in NFL history and with Reggie's college credentials he should get it.

But what Im wondering is will the Saints be able to afford Bushs contract. They can definately afford it. Plus he's the second pick so he'll get less than Mario (who already signed), so we already know how high he cann't go. Plus Reggie already said he wants to make the contract work and doesn't want to hold out. He already told the press, fans, and his agent this. So like I said, he's a class act.

Going to throw out a question within this draft thread. Which player, in your opinion, was drafted way higher than he should have been...the biggest risk/mistake of the draft?
