Mulligan's NFC North grades NFL Draft '08
BY MIKE MULLIGAN mmulligan@suntimes.com
PACKERS DAY 1 GRADE: B+
2nd-round combo looks solid
No first-rounder, but you have to love the combination of players the Packers landed in the second round. Wide receiver Jordy Nelson is a super-productive sure-handed big receiver. Quarterback Brian Brohm gives them long-term cover for injury-prone Aaron Rodgers as Rodgers begins the post-Brett Favre era. And Auburn's Patrick Lee is a nice complement to their aging cornerback position. Excellent combination.
VIKINGS DAY 1 GRADE: B
Johnson fills need at safety
The Vikings continued their bold offseason by moving up for safety Tyrell Johnson, filling a major need. They already paid through the nose for WR Bernard Berrian and DE Jared Allen, then paid again by moving one spot ahead of the Bears to get Johnson at No. 43. It's a good thing to get the guy you want and it's also obvious that this team is sacrificing a lot to win immediately. Now they need to find a capable starting quarterback.
LIONS DAY 1 GRADE: D
Stretch and super stretch Poor Matt Millen just can't seem to get it right. Staring at Rashard Mendenhall, the perfect running back for the Lions' offense, he trades down, leaving Branden Albert for Kansas City. Then he passes on Mendenhall again and reaches for Boston College tackle Gosder Cherilus with Jeff Otah on the board. And if Cherilus was a reach, then second-round linebacker Jordon Dizon was a quantum stretch. The theme song: Dumb de dumb dumb dumb.
