Eric Fisher went #1 to the Kansas City Chiefs!
The Bengals picked up Tyler Eifert, a tight end, and Giovani Bernard, a RB, with their first two picks...
Very surprising... I would think we'd be looking for a safety or defensive lineman instead. I'm not sure why we're focusing on offense.

Manti Te'o and Geno Smith went back to back in the 2nd round. Te'o to the Chargers and Smith to the Jets.

I don't understand why the Steelers used their fourth round pick on a backup quarterback. I don't think I would have taken a quarterback that early in the draft, even with Ben Roethlisberger constantly having injures.
