How are we only on pick #18? I'm slightly freaking out over here.

2 safeties in the top 17. Interesting. I kept reading that there was no S worth a 1st

This will be interesting at 23

The way the schedule fell, I got out of my first day at the new job for the Super Bowl and got to leave early on my first day of mandatory overtime for the draft. The NFL gods have blessed me.

Who had Keanu Neal in the first round? Listed as a solid second round pick on NFL.com. They have a nice draft tracker there, sortable by a variety of things. I'm looking at grade.

Figured they'd go Ryan Kelly. They have GOT to protect Luck.

@JasonLaCanfora Neal was the one player I had tabbed to go way, way higher than anyone was projecting. They see Neal as Earl Thomas/Kam hybrid

I liked Ryan Kelly.

At this point I don't know. Lawson, Reed or Spence?
