OK, going to do the Saints. They only had 5 picks, so this should go quickly.

1.30 - DT Brian Price - missed a significant amount of time his rookie season with injury. Currently listed as a backup. Not the impact interior defender we were looking for, but there's hope yet.
2.64 - LB Navorro Bowman - Currently starting at ILB for the 49ers, so presumably he'd be good enough to start for the Saints as well. Would obviously play OLB, where we need the most help. Solid pick.
3.95 - DE Alex Carrington - Currently a backup 3-4 DE for the Bills. Would probably be in the rotation at DE for the Saints, but I have no idea how good he is.
5.138 - RB Montario Hardesty - Well, good job anticipating the Saints' needs at RB, and good job taking a guy in the 5th that went in the 2nd IRL. Unfortunately, he was injured in the preseason last year and hasn't been particularly healthy this year. Jury is very much out on whether or not he can contribute.
7.223 - SS Barry Church - Went undrafted IRL but made the Cowboys' roster and is now a top backup safety. Pretty good stuff for a player taken this late.

Very much a "jury still out" draft. None of these players had an immediate impact, although Bowman, Price, and Hardesty should/would be important contributors this year.

Detroit Lions

1.9 CJ Spiller Felt like I had to trade down after Suh went first rather than take McCoy. It's true the Lions needed and still need a running back, but Spiller didn't do much last season. Not a bust yet but not a good pick either C-

2.34 Patrick Robinson is the 3rd corner, maybe even #2 not sure, for the Saints. Lions needed corners extremely bad from this draft, they addressed many needs via free agency still a weakness though. B

2.49 Chris Cook another corner, and my compensation for moving down, most likely will be starting for the Vikings when healthy. In heavy rotation anyways. Same boat as Robinson really. All my picks are wait and see still. B

3.66 Tyson Alualu Not Suh but had a very good rookie year and ought be at least a quality defensive tackle for years. Also got picked way higher in the real draft than expected, iirc #10 overall. A

4.110 Jacoby Ford Lions would be unstoppable with this guy in there with Megatron and Burleson, we'll see if Titus Young can come anywhere close. I filled a hole here a year early, Ford could be real good. A

5.145 Chris Scott
At first I was like sweet starting tackle for the Steelers then I realized that was Jonathan Scott. Well, at least he's on the Steelers roster. No clue where he stands, is he a backup or about to get cut. C-?

7.198 Boris Lee Was on Jags practice squad and a few others, currently unsigned. Probably not going to play in the league who knows. F?

If only I took Jason Pierre Paul or something over Spiller would be pretty great draft, as is decent.

Robinson is a good pick. He appears ready to step into a starting role although Porter and Greer have held him off so far.

Robinson was an awesome pick; would easily start for plenty of teams. Cook is full blown AIDS. Would not be surprised to seem him out of the league in 2 years.

Sweet draft though getting Alulolu, Robinson, and Ford. Spiller still has a chance as well.

What's hilarious is that Chilly traded back four spots in 2010 thinking he could still get Robinson, but the Saints sniped him at 32, so they had to settle for Cook at 34.
