    It's not the draft I wanted. However, I don't think it's a bad draft by any means for them at all. Mayhew and Schwartz have done an excellent job since taking over the franchise and they have earned my trust at this point. If this class doesn't pan out, it will be their first, but all their picks make sense. Now, free agency needs to happen or we'll still have a gaping hole in the secondary.

    I'm in the same hole with Harbaugh. I trust Harbaugh's ability to develop a franchise, but boy, I'm scared.

    Just found out they're planning on using Bruce Miller as an FB. THAT IS A MISTAKE, GENTLEMEN!

    I bet you were disappointed when they passed on Marecic in the 4th round....

    Schwartz got a lot out of Haynesworth in Tennessee, and with Vanden Bosch and Suh out there I think he can get Fairley to produce. I still don't like the pick, but if he gets production from Fairley I'll be happy.

    I bet Harbaugh's jaw hit the floor when Cleveland took him. It was a little early. I bet they were looking to trade up into the 5th for him, because there's no way that Harbaugh planned to leave this draft without Marecic.

    I really like Marecic, but his allure due to the dual position player made him a little bit of a name. He's a bit overrated, quite simply.

    lolno. not if they want to resign Vick and Mikell.
  • HOODSHOODS Posts: 41,866 destroyer of motherfuckers
    lol why? theyre not strapped for cash. They always reign in good free agents especially when needed. I would not be surprised to see them sign him, I know its already a topic for discussion.
  • drinkwine732drinkwine732 Posts: 20,418 destroyer of motherfuckers
    Neither will get him, that's my prediction.

    The fact that Dallas drafted only 1 CB and in the 5th round makes me wonder if Jones wasn't bullshitting when he said he doesn't see CB as an area of concern for the Cowboys. What a fool.

    Also George, the consensus around the league is that the Eagles are fucking retarded for drafting Danny Watkins in the first round. I dunno if that's the case, he could be a damn fine starter.

    yeah, I dont know anything about Watkins? Maybe they have inside information or something, they have picked winners before when everyone else thought they failed, so I'm not worried. OLines was a huge need, so we'll see. I still think Asomugha has a strong shot to land here, its one of our biggest needs, I know they'll give it a try..

    I think they will. I know JJ is fucking retarded, but he actually did something not stupid for a change and drafted what we needed. Got a beast of a OT and OL to help Homo and keep him healthy. You yourself know when Romo is healthy he can be a top 5 QB. O-line was terrible against the Vikings 2 years ago and got Romo and Kitna hurt last season. So it was a must to draft that way this year.

    I think Bruce Carter was a hell of a steal in the draft for us. He is a beast and can actually chase down RBs at great speed.

    I figured they would pass on CB this draft(even though I wanted Amukamura) and go for it all in FA and try to grab Nnamdi. They have the money, stadium, and team that will tickle his pickle. If we can't nab then oh well. Lots of other good S and CBs in FA.

    I expect the Lions will be very aggressive in trying to get Nhamdi. If not I'm expecting at least some secondary help once free agency does start.
