The experts have had their say, and now it's time for fans to have their say. We asked Yahoo! Sports readers to take a look at their favorite teams and
What moves will your team make in the 2011 NFL Draft?
Chicago Bears
Biggest steals: "I've been a fan of the Chicago Bears since I was a child. I grew up and still live in the Quad-Cities." Read more.
Cleveland Browns
Needs: "Heading into NFL Draft: Lockout Edition, there are numerous things football analysts agree on when looking at the current Cleveland Browns. Despite last December's collapse, a new coaching staff and new defensive scheme, this isn't a total reset for the Browns." Read more.
Dallas Cowboys
Biggest busts: "In the four decades I have followed the Dallas Cowboys as a fan, there have been many great players drafted by the team. While the number is small, these choices came back to haunt Dallas during periods when they counted on the picks to keep them competitive." Read more.
Best steals: "The Cowboys found a number of hidden talents in later rounds of the NFL Draft that went on to lead them to five Super Bowl wins in eight appearances on the grandest stage of them all." Read more.
Detroit Lions
Best steals: "As a lifelong Detroit Lions fan, I have seen my share of botched draft picks, particularly during the Matt Millen era. However, Detroit has had a few shining moments by coming up with some picks that turned out to be truly visionary." Read more.
New Orleans Saints
Needs: "The Saints have had the best 'offseason' of any team at this point - having re-signed Pierre Thomas to a four-year deal and addressing one of their biggest needs by adding DT Shaun Rogers. DT depth might end up being an area where the Saints should address in the depth, given the age and one-year deal of Rogers." Read more.
Best late picks: "As any Saints fan who was on the bandwagon before the Super Bowl year can attest to, New Orleans has made some monumental blunders with their first round draft picks. From Shawn Knight to Russell Erxleben, the New Orleans Saints front office has made numerous disastrous draft picks." Read more.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Biggest steals: "The Steelers are a team that builds their franchise through the NFL Draft. While some trades have brought special players, like Jerome Bettis, and some free agent signings turn out to be pure gold, (James Harrison anyone?), the draft is as good as it gets for the Steelers to find a gem." Read more.
San Diego Chargers
Biggest steals: "If you are familiar with San Diego sports, you undoubtedly understand just how polarizing a figure San Diego Chargers' General Manager A.J. Smith is. Much of his infamy lies in his perceived arrogance, stubbornness, and unwillingness to compromise. He has managed to make some good decisions, and here are five of his best." Read more.
St. Louis Rams
Biggest busts: "Though it seems like the darkest days in franchise history are over, looking back now it's easy to see why the Rams have been an awful football team for most of the past 25 years. The Rams have drafted poorly, and their on-field performance has suffered because of it." Read more.
Biggest steals: "The NFL Draft has rarely been good to the St. Louis Rams. As a fan since childhood, I should know. However, once in awhile, the Rams strike it big." Read more.
Minnesota Vikings
Biggest busts: "After numerous years of anxiously watching the NFL Draft with hopes that my favorite team, the Minnesota Vikings, would add the right ingredients to cook up a Super Bowl-winning concoction, I've had the pleasure of watching some of those ingredients go sour." Read more.
