Deadspin
Some "experts" — you know, the people who decide who did a great job in a draft mere hours after it was completed and before, uh, anyone so much as puts on more than a hat — were up on the New England Patriots' selections at the NFL Draft this weekend. We couldn't tell you, but we did love any and all shots of Bill Belichick yesterday. Bill! Are you letting your hair grow out? Someone's been hanging out with Bon Jovi!
The big deal of the draft seemed to be Philadelphia's heisting of the Carolina Panthers, but again, that was just the trading of draft picks, which let's us go out and do this again next year. (Sometimes, trading actual real solid living players is more helpful. The real trade last year involved Randy Moss, not an amorphous draft pick, and this year's top pick might ended up involving Pacman Jones.)
But yes. We know what you really went to know: Where did all the stoners end up being drafted? Celebstoner has your answers. Mario Manningham dropped quite a bit for Vicodin. Stuff'll do ya in.

Glen Dorsey is already practicing his underachieving...
(That's all you excel in when you're drafted by the Chiefs)
He looks eerily like an age-enhanced Boomer in that pic.
Pink on pink was an interesting choice.
Videographer in the front.
Par-tay in the back.
I will never, ever, EVER tire of hearing The Greatest Football Team in the League referred to as the "Superbowl Champion New York Giants." Ever.
@Dead Wrestlers Society: More like a deux deux deux-enhanced boomer.
/Do we have video yet of Boomer referencing deux deux deux at the draft?
Yeah the Eagles certainly heisted Carolina all right. Next year they'll get to trade out of the first round twice. Wheeee!

@OchentaYcinco: At this rate, in 30 years, the Eagles will have every single 1st round pick in the draft. Then... you're all in big big trouble.
Love it, someone definitely upped their haircut budget.
@FiddlingWhileJimRomeBurns brought to you by Diebold:
I'm shocked that Herm was able to manage the clock and get all his picks in on time.
@MyronCopacetic:
Belichick loves the pink.
@BigJimSlade: God, that's like... 75 second round picks! More Notre Dame defensive linemen, please.
I will ask it yet again: who at ESPN dresses Keyshawn?
Beware Eli. Not one but two immobile Kentucky Qb's are breathing down your neck.
@Civil Negligence: Lloyd from Entourage.
@Civil Negligence: Keyshawn looked like his next stop was, "The Playa Hatas Ball."
I don't think I hated a college player more over the past three years than Manningham, given his responsibility in ruining what should have been a perfect season for PSU in 2005. And now I have to root for the guy? Fuck me.
@Civil Negligence: Emmitt Smith founds his outfit incouragesable.
@Chief Wahoo: (Gives the McShay stare)
@UkraineNotWeak:
He loves the aged pink. I bet that combo is at least 10 years old. (That's 53 in shirt years, right?)
With the hair starting to flow over the ears, it looks to me like Coach is very focused on the coin toss this season. We would already say he doesn't have a sense of humor.
@Jews For Purple Jesus: Yeah - but you got a steal with that pick.
@Civil Negligence: Michael Irvin?
According to Mel Kiper Jr., the Pats are now 19-2.
In the summer, Belichick experiments with blitz packages. In the spring, he experiments with product and chestnut highlights.
@OchentaYcinco: Trevor Laws was the only player from ND last year who belonged anywhere near the NFL. I honestly think he will do well.
The niners yet again fail to impress me on draft day. Here's to another 3 years of fail!
Way to fuck up again Titans. Lets just let VY throw it to himself.
highlight of the Lions draft? Some dude NOT going to Iraq
/sigh
@SonofSpurrier: Preferably not in a library.
@millensdraftskills: Is he really that much safer in Detroit?
@muggsybogues: I've gotten tired of that, but I'll never get tired of this:
18-1.
@FiddlingWhileJimRomeBurns brought to you by Diebold: Since Bowe was such an underperformer as a rookie.
Kevin Hart is holding a press conference this afternoon to announce that he was drafted by both the Patriots and the Colts this weekend. Still lots of seats available for members of the fake news media. [a.abcnews.com]
@Magnakai Haaskivi: wrong thread
Hey, what's that there under Amani Toomer's wing? Oh, that's fellow Wolverine Mario Manningham, you say? I see. Well, good thing he ended up there.
@HIV 2 Elway: 70 for 995 and 5 TDs. That's what you and Herm are hanging your hat on?
Yawn...
@FiddlingWhileJimRomeBurns brought to you by Diebold: I'll take 70 receptions from a rookie wide out any year. I dislike Herm as much as the next guy but I think he's made solid move in the last 3 drafts and that too much to if the mess that Dicky V left at 1 Arrowhead Drive gets pinned on him.
@Lanny's Mustache Rides: I'm there. But right now, the only other reps are from Weapons & Helmets, Girl Beat, and college radio.
Gotta love this quote from Peter King today:
"Early Doucet (81) lasted waaaaay too long after a starry career but groin-ravaged senior year at LSU. "
Groin-ravaged senior year of college? Sounds about right.
@Civil Negligence: that was a hot mess on Saturday. Stripes, gingham, pink tie, green pocket square - only thing missing was a pimp hat.
@SonofSpurrier:
Heeeey, THAT might actually work.
Can't be any worse, can it?
