A 4th rder, yes!!!!!!!!!!

[Spedracer]

Giants got a favor paid here, and Baltimore an even bigger one. Buffalo must have pissed someone off. They lost Whitner, Poz.

[bLuereverie]

What do you mean we can't trade these?!

[BlueBlitzer]

We now have a decent pick for Jerry Reese to trade. If in a particular round He sees what He wants.

Red font: thats enough to get us a Tebow!! :)

[fletch842]

Giants got a favor paid here, and Baltimore an even bigger one. Buffalo must have pissed someone off. They lost Whitner, Poz. and signed Mario Williams.

[Kruunch]

I can't believe Weatherford's $2.5 mil / yr contract offsets Cofields' $6 mil / year deal.

Meh.

[T.Rice57]

Can someone explain the compensatory pick to me?

[Shockeyitus]

How do they justify giving the Packers get four comp picks... Especially two in the fourth round. Is the NFL still trying to preach parady? God Damn Fools!!
