JP and I both got 2 picks (4 total) right out of 31 to the right teams. We had 7 ot 8 picks within 1-2 picks of where they actually went in the draft.  Garnett, Butler and Neal really were surprising moves. We picked prior to the big trade between the Eagles and Browns, so this upset the apple cart.  There was also a ton of wheeling and dealing during the draft, more than I can recall in the last few years. Get fired up, day #2 will be here early tomorrow… more future NFL stars are to be had. Time to get oiled up for day #2!
