Draft weekend

I love the NFL. I'm always interested in who the Steelers pick. But i just can't buy into all the hoopla around the draft itself. Days and weeks of speculation about players whose value in the NFL is still unknown. I just cannot get into it.

Football Outsiders takes a look back on one expert's hits and misses.

I've never understood why bad teams use the first overall pick. One single player is not going to help the Raiders or Texans. Why not trade the pick away and get two or three additional very good or great players.

My theory is that this week marks the point of maximum collective happiness for NFL fans. Right now, we can all dream that our teams will be much better in 2007.
