The Sports Watercooler

Now that the NFL draft is over, what are the emotions? How do you feel about what your team did this weekend? Are you excited for a new era of Quarterbacking Atlanta, Baltimore, Miami, Green Bay, and Minnesota? Are you excited not really for next year, but for the future Kansas City? Are you excited just to watch someone with insane talent St. Louis and Oakland?

And how many people have read "report cards" about how your team did? Post draft analysis and report cards are one of the most fun and one of the most pointless parts of the draft. There is no way you can predict how the draft can pan itself out until 3 years down the road. Yet, it still helps to put some sort of grade on how your team did.

Mainly though, fans will only feel elated. Unless your team took Ted Ginn 3 rounds before he should have gone, the day after the draft is full of hope and excitement. Your first round pick was a beast in college. Imagine what he can do when he has some real teammates around him.

So today is a day of never ending possibilities. Your rivals all drafted like crap, you can't believe at least 2 of your picks fell to your team, and your 5th round pick is a sleeper. Mel Kiper will see eventually that they deserved higher than a B-.
