What about Palmer? I thought he had a shot at going in the late rounds.

Yep had a shot. But guess they say him as to much of a problem. I am sure he will get invited to some camps though.

What about the fact that its the first time since 1966 that we have had two go in the first round. Or how about the fact that only Georgia, So Cal, and us had two players each in the first 24 picks....

Yep, have we ever had non starters signed?

Hopefully signs of times to come!

Next year's draft could be huge for OM. I just took a quick look at our roster, and out of just the senior class, we have 20ish major contributors leaving. I've gotta think several of those guys will be drafted, and the others could certainly sign good FA deals. Sucks for the 2010 team, but it would be great for exposure, especially if they move the draft to primetime as is being discussed by the NFL heads.
