Sanders picked BEFORE McCoy and Jordan Shipley. Absolutely loving it. Huge grats to Mr. Sanders!

Best news all day! Way to go! I almost choked on my food when I saw that pick. Incredible.
I am curious as to why though...I know Santonio is gone and they got Mike Wallace...a very similar player in size and skills. Eh who cares! A pony will get a shot to play on Sundays! I wish ESPN would analyze this a little though. No highlight reels?

No sooner does he get picked then shipley AND McCoy go back to back to Cincy and Cleveland. At least those two good friends will see each other twice a year.

Many had Sanders rated ahead of shipley. Those outside the UT hype machine. And McCoy...well, he is what he is. Was expecting him to go later than he did. I will admit that I was wrong. Guess Holmgren really does think he looks like Montana and Young after all. Sorta kinda.

Kudos to ES, my son's fave player. Now let's get McCann in there by round 7!

Congratulations, Emmanuel! Couldn't be happier for you or more proud of you. Give 'em hell.
Pittsburgh is a perfect fit. They dumped Holmes on the Jets, Hines Ward is getting up there ... he's going to make the team, and he's going to do well.
Go get 'em, E!

Sanders SHOULD be rated higher — he's a better player.

I concur. Glad the NFL is a meritocracy...at least some of the times. (Cowboys Roy Williams)
