I used to like the 49ers when I was younger (big Jerry Rice/Steve Young fan), but have moved to not being a fan of just one anymore since I'm more of a CFB fan now. Teams I have no problem cheering for are Philly, San Diego, San Francisco, Baltimore, Green Bay, and any team playing New England (hate Tom Brady and Belicheck).

As for the NFL Draft, this year's draft class is somewhat lackluster since there is no clearcut #1, the QBs being tossed around as first rounders are nothing really special, and there aren't many standout offensive skill players.

Oakland Raiders, family worked for the team in the 60s. They frequented my families restaurant in Alameda during that time frame also, so I have been a fan as long as I have known about football!

A combination of first the Patriots then whichever teams have a lot of Duck players. For example the Ravens, Panthers (not anymore if the draft $cam) & Seahawks. I don't really like the Seahawks but they have my favorite all time Duck in Thurmond so I don't really have a choice, I want him to have success. And they have Unger & I kinda like Petey now that he's not in the Pac10. I like the Pats cuz I'm from Massachusetts, my grandpa had season tickets for a long time, they have Tom Brady & Chung... oh & they're really good ha.

I still can't believe he traded for Lendale White and passed up on Blount :(

Hawks, just because they're closest and I usually go to at least one game per year and when I'm lucky, more. I always (obviously) root for Ducks teams though. I also did fantasy for the first time last year, so I found that I root really hard for my star players. I had Aaron Rogers, so I was a huge Green Bay fan.

But mostly the Seahawks.

49ers. Have been for life. My rooting style is different from most on here for sure; while I still hope for good things from former Ducks, their location does not change my favorite team and I will easily root against them if they're playing the Niners on Sunday.

No kidding, I was hoping they'd pick him up after Tennessee let him go. To think they could have gotten him for a 7th round pick...

This + The Packers. Been rooting for the packers since I was like 5 or 6, so they have been my team for a while. No connection to Green Bay, other than my dad rooted for them as a kid because he liked their colors haha. (Sounds familiar)

Green and Yellow.

If I had to pick I'd say Panthers. Just cause of J-Stew. I really don't care about the NFL though. Most NFL I watch is the draft.

I was really hoping that the Panthers would pick Luck but him staying was sucky on both levels(ducks and panthers). If the Panthers pick Newton they'd be 1. dumb and 2. no longer a team i root for

Anyone else see the Gruden camp with Newton? It really seems like to me he did not have control of that offense. That Malzahn had to be in total control. Newton couldn't even name a play when asked by Gruden and admitted to not being in sync with his lineman etc
