I'd say the biggest steal so far was our guy Chris Wells, he was #10 on my board, injury questions be damned, he's a freak. Very happy, he'd have been my pick at #10 if we'd have had the pick, and we get to pay him as the #31 overall pick, not top 10, brilliant!

Other than him in order, I'd say the biggest steals so far were, Darius Butler- NE, Maualuga - Cincy and Maclin - Philly . They all got serious players for their picks imo, and as such they will be getting more than they're going to have to pay for them via draft position slotting. Win, win.

The Cardinals drafting Wells at 31, people will be kicking themselves for letting him almost slide out of the first round, I was shocked he was there for us. Compared to where players like Crabtree fell, there is no comparison that Wells is the steal of the draft...I'm pumped...Warner is our QB, we have Fitz, Boldin (still a Cardinal) and Breaston and then you put a player like Wells in the backfield (who can catch, was not asked to do so at Ohio St. much), Wells is a dynamic back and this offense is going to be sweet

Whew...thank you! I couldn't believe I'd read through two pages and hadn't heard a word about our man Beanie!

This kid is special - I think he is going to make a splash right away, and I don't remember who first brought it up last night, but don't forget the power of a chip on a young guy's shoulder. Nothing makes you want to lower your shoulder and knock some people out like getting passed over 30 times!

We love you Beanie! Welcome home!
