The first day of the NFL draft, and as expected, the Detroit Lions chose Matthew Stafford as the #1 pick. Mark Sanchez was drafted by the Jets at #5, and Michael Crabtree was chosen at #10 by the 49ers. Only one LSU player was drafted, and that was Tyson Jackson. He was the #3 pick and will be joining his former team mate Glen Dorsey playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.The Cowboys didn't draft a single player. They had previously traded their first round pick to Detroit for Roy Williams. They had a second round pick, but ended up trading it to Buffalo for two picks in later rounds. Tomorrow ought to be a busy day for them, since they have 12 picks. You betcha I will be here for them!
The only Texas player drafted was Brian Orakpo, and he went to just about the worst possible place he could go to, the Washington Redskins.
Overall, I'd have to say that this draft has been uninspiring so far, but with the Cowboys doing all their business tomorrow, it ought to get better.
