I actually like both of the Raiders draft picks. DHB might of been drafted too high but he has alot of talent. Michael Mitchell was a pick alot of people didnt like but he played great at Ohio. He reminds me alot of Sean Taylor when it comes to his hard hitting style.

Umm I don't see how you think this guy is gonna be good, better yet that he reminds you of sean Taylor, cause he didn't make 1st,2nd, or 3rd team all MAC, and pretty much every prospect chosen was one of those three teams in their conference and the one game I saw this guy play against Ohio state, I don't recall his name once.....I want to see how bad this guy plays for the raiders, was he just another speed guy or what?

Mitchell actually looks good.. Here's the clip of him:
As for the question: I like to watch most of teams closely, I love football and it applies to every team.. But of course, I will be watching Redskins more close..

Since you havent seen him play or dont remember. Watch the clip in this thread. Im not saying he will be as good as Sean Taylor. Taylor could hit like a machine and play the pass and cover ground like very few before him. I honestly believe Taylor would of made the HOF. Im only saying Mitchells hard hitting style reminds me of Sean Taylors. Im not saying he is as good as Sean Taylor.

Just because Mitchell didnt get the awards like other players or played in a top conference doesnt mean he cant shock some people and become a good NFL player. People have said that about alot of the greats who have played in the NFL coming out of college. We will just have to wait and see if Mitchell is boom or bust. I do know from watching him play and the clips I have seen of him his hard hitting style reminds me alot of Sean Taylors.

Yeah I've seen the clip before and I don't think he'll be that good I'm just saying that pretty much every player in the NFL was either first second or third team, or honorable mention, in their conference, this guy wasn't even mentioned..you always have to of been mentioned to succeed in the NFL, plus this guy has a lot of pressure being drafted as high as he was that's what I want to see this year, is if I'll be right about this guy, which I think I will be ...

Maybe you are right about how good he will be. Im honestly not sure. I think he has the chance to be good and the all-conference thing means nothing to me when it comes to NFL success. Hes either gonna be good or not. Ive seen players go undrafted who had more success than most at their position that year.

I mainly was just pointing out that watching him his hard hitting style is like Sean Taylors. I dont know how good he will be but with Mitchells hard hitting ability and his speed shown at his pro day he has the potenial to be pretty good.

The addition of Gonzo via trade was the best move any team made this offseason imo. The Falcons should have one of the best teams in the NFC. It wouldnt shock me to see them in the NFCCG.

Also the Bengals. Palmer was very good before injury set in and has already started to talk up the season quite a bit. Now Cinci has my favorite defensive player from the draft in Rey-Rey...i would hope Cinci could at least compete in its division now.
Gregg Williams coaching the Saints defense will be fun to watch to go with their high powered offense.

The Bengals had one of the best drafts this year imo. Getting Andre Smith, Rey Maualuga, Michael Johnson, and Chase Coffman was just straight up great. Smith might be better suited at guard but either way he should be a good player. Rey is going to end up being a leader on their defense like Ray Lewis is in Baltimore. Michael Johnson has all the potenial in the world and Coffman is a TE who at Missouri reminded me alot of Chris Cooley.

I dont know how good the Bengals will be this year but that draft set them up for the future. It was one of the best drafts ive ever seen.
