Local rumors have been that the 49ers are interested in trading up for Beckham.

Manningham was absolutely awful when he was healthy with the 49ers, and he had guys like Vernon Davis, Anquan Boldin and Michael Crabtree around him to take pressure off. I think he's done.

This made me laugh.

I thought they'd take Lewan with most of the mocks I've seen having him go in the top 6, so thought they'd see a "value" pick there.

Was really hoping for some D. Wanted Gilbert in particular.

My initial reaction is WTF. But, gonna have to let this sink in, don't know what to think.

For Bears, Donald + two safeties both on the board + CBs they have eyed ... draft breaking nicely for them so far.

My dream of seeing Ha-Ha and/or Pryor available at 23 just to watch Andy Reid do cartwheels to the podium is looking more and more like a possibility.

Donald, Clinton-Dix, Beckham Jr or Zack Martin. I'll be a happy Giants fan if I hear any of those names called next.

Safe to assume at any given moment he is:
a.) taking Viagra
b.) taking Botox
c.) taking on bad contracts
d.) all of the above

Not even close to a dola,

I'll also be happy if they trade down a few spots.

Edit: Nevermind, pick is in

Easy to say when they didn't have to make that choice.

It's interesting how players rise and fall so much after the season ends. Beckham can run. Can he get open in the NFL. I don't see a 5-11 WR as worth being in the top half of the first round.

Maybe the Giants are just playing keep away from the Eagles?

Rams could use a corner or a safety or something back there. Donald is a value now, though. Definitely defense.

Outside of Victor Cruz, IMO, the Giants are pretty weak at WR.

Every year, I think they draft well. And yet they're still right up there with Cleveland and Detroit when it comes to lousy the last several years.

If it were me, I'd say Bradford is never going to be good and I would have taken Manziel. But they paid so much for Bradford and they seem to want to sink or swim with him.

Manziel would have the same problem as Bradford though: lack of playmakers around him. St. Louis still hasn't done anything to fix that issue.

I'm actually surprised that only 1 QB has been taken so far. Not so shocked Manziel has fallen, but I would have thought 2-3 QBs would have been taken by now.
