THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
QUOTE OF THE DAY
"Fisher was right up at the top even before the combine."
Andy Reid discussing their first-round pick. Arrowhead pride.
Through the first 99 picks in the draft, 1/3 of them were from the Southeast Conference (SEC)
— ESPN.com
Q: Where is Eric Fisher, the number one pick in the draft, from?
A: Central Michigan University
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
THE MORNING BREW 49ers, Bills on top of draft; Chiefs, Cowboys fall short
This isn't the year of the quarterback in the NFL draft. Nor is it the year of the running back or the wide receiver. This time around, the big guys dominated the first round of the draft. Tackles, linebacks and guards were the dominant players in the first round. This year's draft was nothing spectacular compared to the past few years.
Every year, as fans and critics, we evaluate how our favorite teams did in the draft. Some teams do better than others in selections, but no matter what, we stand by our teams. With that in mind, here is my view of the winners and losers of this year's draft.
WINNERS:
San Francisco 49ers. In the first round, they selected Eric Reid, a safety from LSU, adding on to the multitalented team they currently field. In the second round, they selected defensive end Cornellius Carradine, also known as "Tank." His nickname is self-explanatory. But the most interesting story to come from the 49ers' draft was probably their decision to draft Marcus Lattimore from South
Carolina. Lattimore suffered a gruesome knee injury in a game last season, thus ending his college career. He was considered one of the top picks for the draft before the injury. If he fully recovers, he will be filled with emotion and motivation to play that much better. I would give them an A-.
Buffalo Bills: I like the Bills' draft choices. I think E.J. Manuel from Florida State is a much wiser pick than Geno Smith at the quarterback position. I can see him being much more successful in his football career. In the third round, the Bills drafted Marquise Goodwin out of Texas. Goodwin is a speedy receiver, as he is also a track athlete. I watched him win state titles in high school track, and
at Texas, he was one of the better receivers on the football team. This guy is quick, and if he can prove himself, he'll make sure opponents see how dangerous he is. The Bills get a B+.
LOSERS:
Kansas City Chiefs: Yes, you read that correctly. The hometown Chiefs are one of the losers of this year's draft. Instead of going with the popular choice in Luke Joeckel for the first pick in the whole draft, they chose Eric Fisher from Central Michigan. Wait, from where? Exactly. Fisher is a decent outside tackle, but to go No. 1 overall and to come from a conference that doesn't have top football programs, there is something wrong here. Then they traded up their second round pick only to pick a tight end from Cincinnati in the third round. The Chiefs deserve a grade of C- only because they got the first pick.
Dallas Cowboys: What was Jerry Jones thinking? I guarantee Cowboys fans around the country were not happy with the team's choices in the first two rounds. They picked positions that did
not need to be replaced. They somewhat made up for it by getting a wide receiver and a safety in the third round. They get a C.
The draft was filled with surprises and lots of unknown players. Now that the draft is over, let's see how teams can adjust with their new acquisitions.
