I also liked what the Rams, Steelers, Cowboys, Ravens, Dolphins, and Redskins did. The Browns and Vikings also did very well even if they got lucky to get their QBs late.
The Lions are the one team that I'm really shaking my head on.
I dont love the Ebron pick, but the rest of the draft is solid to me, albeit unspectacular.

Exactly my thoughts on the Lions. Solid draft, but not very flashy.
The Bills are now officially my #2 team. They now have 6, yes 6, Clemson Tigers. I can't wait to see the two best players of the last decade at Clemson (Spiller, Watkins) be on the field at the same time.

Heh, I do the opposite and have colleges that rise up my pecking order due to good players on the Broncos. Stanford has been perennially high on that list for that reason (Elway, of course, but also McCaffrey and John Lynch). I wish they nabbed Trent Murphy, that would have put Stanford even higher. If he impacts like I think he will, it'll be interesting to see if the Redskins keep Orakpo after this year.

parcells? if anything it was pete carroll's crew setting belichick up with a decent foundation in 2000.
regardless, i'm not saying (and i doubt coach is either) that Jimmy G is going to carry the torch, but i think the torch will go on as it has as long as Belichick's around.

Yeah, there's life after Brady as long as ownership, GM/Coach remains in place. The real emergence of the Pats started with Kraft buying the team, then the Parcells hire, and the '96 Super Bowl and on and on.
Still, I highly doubt there's another 3 SBs in 4 years happening in NE post-Brady or in our lifetime...

i think there can continue to be the expectation that this team makes the playoffs (especially now that it's expanding) as long as belichick is around.
beyond that, i will continue to appreciate how incredible the last 14 years have been for my favorite big-4 sports teams.

Has any metro had it better in all those sports than the greater Boston area? I'm drawing a blank thinking of anywhere else.
I had figured out a few years ago which metro areas had the shortest span of time in which they saw teams win titles in all four major sports, and when the Bruins won the Stanley Cup Boston's number dwarfed everyone else's.
If I remember correctly (and I went by which calendar year the team actually won the title in so)...
Boston: 2005 - 2011
New York: 1969 - 1980
Chicago: 1986 - 2010
Los Angeles: 1984 - 2012
Philadelphia : 1960 - 1980
Detroit: 1955 - 1989
I believe those were the only metropolitan areas that had won titles in all four major sports. It's amazing how short a period of time Boston saw titles in all four of them in.

it's even crazier to me that the Cs and Bs have a championship loss each and the Pats have 2 SB losses. it's been an incredible run of good management, coaching, and luck.
And let's give credit where credit is due, Boston sports fans definitely suffered silently and with dignity during that 1986-2002 stretch with out a title...
