The Bears might actually have a chance at Jon Asomoah the way this draft is playing out.

30 (62) Patriots - Brandon Spikes, LB, Florida

He was on my list, I even took him in our mock. I like him, but he may be slow. It shouldn’t be that much of an issue.

And the quiet Colts are on the clock:

31 (63) Colts - Pat Angerer, LB, Iowa

I saw this guy in the Orange Bowl. He was ALWAYS near the ball. Very very smart player, if a little short.

Just about every player the Pats take reside right at the top of my list of busts. I enjoy them screwing things up. Combine that with the fact that the entire NFC Norris has squandered their picks I’m feeling pretty pleased with things.

The Colts on the other hand are having another quietly awesome draft.

Hmmm, do I want the Bears drafting Bruce Campbell if he lasts? I don’t know.

Man, I am liking what the colts are doing with a limited number of picks, I like them all.

32 (64) Saints - Charles Brown, OT, USC

The guy has a huge head, and don’t ask him to be the field goal kicker. Injury history involving kites and trees. Trivia, he was a star pitcher as a youth.

Meh. I’m not convinced Hughes will be good enough against the run and I don’t think Angerer will be a difference maker in the NFL. Give me the Seahawks for awesome.

I’m going out to dinner now. Good luck to Trent Baalke and the 49ers. Keep up the fantastic, fantastic work.

Anybody else can post the picks, but it would be nice to use the same format.

Quick, give me the name of a round 7 projected center or waterboy the Browns could draft.

Yeah, Seahawks are having a really nice draft. Which grinds my gears, 'cuz I was really hoping Cheatey Petey would do something stupid like grabbing Clausen in the first half of the first round.

Jeremy Green just said that you throw out the stopwatch with him. He plays faster in the game.  
Also, Dez Bryant has an irregular heartbeat?

We have another CB run.

I suppose we needed a cornerback.

Someone bring on the Jared Veldheer!

Yuck. Hate their draft. They got the wrong OT in the first round. Thomas is fine but 14 is too high and Tate is not an every down player.

Serious CB run here, good sign for the Bears if they are going O Line in the 3rd.

I’d be surprised if the Chiefs, Raiders, and Bills pass on Bruce Campbell now.
