New players to hate: Rams, Cards, Niners

New names to file under "Booooooooooooooooo!"

St Louis:
1st Round: Chris Long, DE -- Stay away from my Hasselbeck, Mouflon!
2nd Round: Donnie Avery, WR -- Good luck getting open before our D-line eats your quarterback.

Cardinals: The Cards drafted three (3!) (trois!) defensive ends. They know you can only play two at a time, right? That weirdness aside, a good looking draft...
1st Round: Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, CB -- Bad news: He's good. Good news: The Cards will coach that out of him.
2nd Round: Calais Campbell, DE -- Many teams had him rated above Lawrence Jackson, who we took, so we'll have a front row seat twice a year to see whether Ruskell made a good decision there.
3rd Round: Early Doucet, WR -- see Donnie Avery, WR, above

Niners:
1st Round: Kentwan Balmer, DT -- Some are already picking him to be a big 1st round bust. Great athlete, though, apparently. Lots of mock drafts had Seattle taking him, and we passed. Again, a twice-a-year front row seat to see if that was a good call.
2nd Round: Chilo Rachal, OG -- eh. He's a guard. Hard to hate. Must try harder.
