Pick #53
Green Bay Packers
Davante Adams (WR) Fresno State

Gotta trust TT.  He typically strikes gold in the 2nd round and he knows WR's.

Pick #64
Seattle Seahawks
Justin Britt (T) Missouri

And with that, I'm going to call it a draft.  The first two rounds are the ones most people care about and I'm going to bed in a bit.  Only got 3 hours of sleep last night and since I'm on vacation; I won't be online much.  Tonight I'm just waiting to go to bed in my hotel after that hellish day with the airlines.

Yes, thank you Atomic for all your hard work!!  Enjoy your vacation!!

And, if that guy doesn't get drafted soon, expect an Executive Order from the White House!!

Maybe he feels he can exert some pressure on Snyder.......   "You like your team name, well you can keep your team name if....."

Wow, here's a surprise.

Johnny Manziel leaves draft and parties hard
By Emily Smith and Stephanie Smith
May 9, 2014 | 10:20pm

Johnny Manziel wasn’t discouraged by his agonizing wait at the NFL Draft in Rockefeller Center — he partied like a winner at Avenue nightclub in Chelsea until the early hours of Friday with stars who included Drake.

After finally being picked by the Cleveland Browns, Johnny Football didn’t lose his swagger and was seen doing rum shots and swigging from a 6-liter Methuselah of Perrier-Jouët Champagne, all while surrounded by attractive women and sweaty suited sports agent types.

Manziel, still wearing his shirt and tie, was the center of attention at the party in the club’s mezzanine, where well-wishers included Drake, Birdman, Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kyrie Irving and Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin.

One witness told us, “Manziel held court at a private booth, as girls flocked to his table. He looked like he was loving the attention. He did shots of Atlantico [rum] and flirted and danced with the girls before spraying Champagne over everybody. We hope Manziel continues to love the game as much as he’s obviously loving the fame.”

Despite the late night revelry, which ended around 3 a.m., a tired-looking Manziel still made it to Friday’s introductory news conference at the NFL football team’s facility in Berea, Ohio.

Downstairs at Avenue, New York Giant Victor Cruz gathered with their new pick, LSU wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Also spotted were Meek Mill, Busta Rhymes, Future, A$AP Ferg, Plaxico Burress, Julez Santana and rapper Yo Gotti.

After the party, Cruz, Burress and Adrian Peterson were spotted at Artichoke Basille’s Pizza and Bar in the early hours of Friday.

Meanwhile, new Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles had a more reserved celebration over dinner at Willow Road in Chelsea with a group of 20, including Chicago Bears quarterback Jordan Palmer.

And earlier in the night, Michael Vick was among guests at Ainsworth, as ESPN’s Merril Hoge lead a panel and Q&A with NFL stars including Burress, the Eagles’ LeSean McCoy and the Giants’ Rueben Randle.

How long before the Rams are told that they have to change their name and team colors?

That's why Tampa Bay passed on him, the fans would never stand for going back to the old Gay Blade pink uniforms....

Just think what the Rams can do this year for the NFL's annual hot pink accessory month.....

As a die-hard PACKER BACKER, I can honestly say I really like what Ted Thompson did with the selections this year.

I was disappointed to see Chris Borland go to the Niners, but the idea that we got Jared Abbrederis made up for that! He's going to have to add some muscle, but he's got the hands for sure!

It's going to be interesting to see how we do with the UDFAs.

GO!! PACK!! GO!!
