Re: Happy New Year Swamp....
I'm usually not one to go out for New Year's either, but the girlfriend's friend was also turning 30 at midnight last night, so we went to a small NYE/birthday party at her house, about five minutes from the girlfriend's. I was home and in bed by 1, seeing as how I had agreed to work the morning shi...

I fail to see how throwing a draft party and being optimistic about going in the 1st round is a red flag.

No, use it to trade up to No. 5 and get Milliner. I'd be happy if the Lions got some picks to trade back to the middle of the first round if they can't get Joeckel or Fisher. My thoughts on the Eagles at No. 4 as well. Hoping someone thinks Detroit or Cleveland wants Millner, or that two of the top...
