Just taking a quick look at how the first round I was really surprised to see there wasn't a little more movement. Being a Dolphin fan I was hoping they would move down acquire more picks since they have so many holes, but I'm also surprised Cleveland and Chicago didn't also move down.

I was really surprised to see the Vikes take Williamson ahead of Williams at 7. I think Williamson is a bit more of an unknown even with Willaims sitting out a year. He does have the big play potential they lack without Moss now though. And then with Williams getting passed by the Vikes to end up in Detroit was a surprise. With Rogers and Roy Williams already there I though the Lions would try to attend to a number of other needs. This makes me thing they may be wondering about Rogers durability. What a nice set of young wideout though!

And then the reall shocker! Rodgers dropping all the way to 24?!!? There was a possibility he was going #1 right up to the start of the draft (thought I wonder how real a possibility it really was, Smith was San Fran's guys from day 1).

And how about the Rams taking Barron? If he fulfills his potential they have some nice peices on the O-Line with he and Pace.

anything else that anyone found unexpected or unusual?
