We're on 163.

172 & 173 are Comp picks - they can't be traded.

Our next pick is at 168

Sorry. ESPN screwed up their pick order. Checked NFL.com and they had it right.

Spencer Drango, OT, Baylor

SUMMARY: A four-year starter, Drango has been a fixture at left tackle for the most successful four-year run in school history, leaving Baylor with 48 career starts and two Big 12 Offensive Lineman of the Year awards – lined up predominantly in a two point stance. He was a steady edge blocker with few holes in the Bears’ spread scheme, but will face a tough transition in a pro-style formation. Drango is a pedestrian athlete with limited power and technical flaws which limits his ceiling in the NFL, but his best attributes are his intelligence and professional make-up, which should keep him in the league as a back-up guard, who might be able to fill in as a spot starter.

Unsympathetic

Really wish they would have taken Charone Peake -- same body type as Payton but a much better athlete..

Like Higgins, not sure why they've drafted 5 WR

This is a promising write up for a pick this late, they have him as the 8th best WR in the whole class

Rashard Higgins, WR, Colorado State

SUMMARY: A three-year starter, Higgins was barely a blip on the recruiting radar out of high school, but he made an instant impact at Colorado State, leading the team in receiving each of his three seasons in Fort Collins with 18 career 100-yard receiving performances – led the NCAA in receiving as a sophomore and was the first CSU player to earn consensus All-America honors since 1995. He lined up primarily as the “X” receiver in Colorado State’s offense and was asked to run a variety of routes, showing the instincts to exploit holes and get uncovered. Higgins isn’t a burner or sudden athlete, but he plays with synchronized shake and terrific footwork to plant-and-go without wasted movements in his routes. He is advanced in several areas at the position and might be the best receiver in this class at improvising to find open zones and give his quarterback a clean target. Although is lack of ideal size and speed will ding him on draft boards, Higgins has the production that matches the tape and his strengths translate well to the next level – second round prospect and NFL starter.

Well no one can say this FO ignored the Wide Receiver Position.

Trey Caldwell, CB

I'm telling you guys. Sometimes I get a good feeling about a guy... no homo.

Didn't you have "good feelings" about Manziel and Trent Richardson?

Opal312

Still need a running back because RG3 can't be slinging it all day long.

Well I think its fair to say not all of these picks are going to make the roster, we need WR badly, so lets grab a bunch of guys and see who rises to the top.
