Good linemen can play until they're 35. He's worth a 3rd.

We swapped thirds with them.

We just swapped 3rd's and gave them a fifth.

EyePod · 04-26-2008, 07:54 PM

WOW. They posted it wrong on NFLN. When I first heard the trade, I thought it was too much, until I saw Detroit taking Chris Williams, then I was OK with it. Now that we only swapped the 3rd... WOW this trade was amazing

Detroit took Gosder Cherilus.

The Bears got Chris Williams.

Thanks, I couldn't remember and took a guess.

We really made out though, cause we paid 1248 and got 1260 (using the draft chart). WTG Chiefs!

Not only that, but the team drafted a player they coveted in Albert.

The guy has pro-bowl O-Lineman written all over him. All that and no value was lost in the trade.

Jared Allen will eat Gosder Cherilus alive if they ever line up against each other.

Nicks probably isn't going to go until the 4th or 5th round, his character has dropped him.

You said Chilo and Jordy would go in the third.

Mecca · 04-26-2008, 08:54 PM

I was hoping Chilo would go in the 3rd so we could get him.....I knew he had the possibility of going in the 2nd..

Jordy Nelson don't even ask me to explain that I didn't like that pick, but yea if you like Nicks honestly they can probably take him in the 4th.

What issues does he have?

EyePod · 04-26-2008, 09:07 PM

We should try for Owen Schmitt (FB). HE IS REDUNKULOUS! Youtube him. He got mad after screwing up a punt (he did fake punts) and then hit his head several times with his own helmet. In a psychological exam, he was asked whether he was a dog or a cat... his answer was LION.

I think Gosder is a RT, but it would still be really funny.

Hypothetical: Falcons take Dorsey instead of Ryan. Raiders take Gholston instead of McFadden.

What do we do?
