I brought it up just a second ago but he hasn't taken my last 5 questions so we'll see.

He should respond "in my parents basement"

As for his response to Milkmans value question, he refuses to acknowledge how well Albert played last year. It's not that much of an upgrade, and it IS a waste to put Albert on the right. I sent him a response about it.

This is the kind of question he kept dodging last time I tried this, we'll see if he gets to it this time

Is Brian Orakpo's lack of pass rushing moves or the inability to use them most likely due to a lack of coaching, poor work ethic, poor focus, poor intelligence, or what? Doesn't this scare teams?

For me, I'm not looking at it from a money issue.
It still comes down to using that #3 overall to fill a hole at RT or guard, and that simpley isn't good value.

This is what I've learned reading between the lines.

He thinks of the Chiefs stay at 3 their only options are Curry or an OT and right now he favors the OT pick because Curry isn't an elite pass rusher.

Just asked:

Does your wife ever feel neglected, roosting alone in your king-sized bed, crying herself to sleep from loneliness and wondering what will become of your neglected children you've had together, while you waste away your life in the light glow of your 65-incher watching slot receivers and 3-tech defensive lineman into the latest hours of the night, completely ignorant of the poisonous effect this has had on the rest of your family?

What player is most likely to be taken earlier than he should be? And by whom?

[Mecca]

I just posted this...

Rhett Bomar

I'm stealing a car and going to the draft who's with me!

Have you ever, ever, ever seen a prospect who was mentally and physically ready to go to the NFL out of high school???

That was me, damn I guess I'm not ready

I responded to his answer by telling him if he doesn't see it, then he's refusing to look, and asked him how many teams have two first OTs, or two first round lineman for that matter?

I don't really see it that way because I REALLY like Monroe and feel he will be a definite upgrade over Albert who I still see as a work in progress.

I believe that Albert will be a solid LT for years but I can also see the utility in having two guys next to each other who already have years of chemistry (I hate the idea of moving Albert to RT over LG)

but as always.. I prefer a damn trade down or I guess Raji at this point...

[Mecca]

The only guys I've ever heard of like that were, Donte Stallworth wanted to explore the possibility of turning pro after high school and Eric Swann.

Will you die of laughter when a network has Matt Millen on as a draft expert?

We'll never see eye to eye on this.

I think Albert is the better LT prospect, but w'll see how it all plays out.

Swann played semi-pro football I believe.
