If they take a DE in the first and a DT in the second i'm gonna go fuggin' Ballistic.

But, what really gets me, is the fact that we've done nothing but draft DT's it seems. It's like trying to hit the bulls-eye, only instead of having three darts- Carl is using a hundred darts, and STILL can't hit the bulls-eye. That's my problem. Patterson may clearly be the better player than all of those I suggested in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, but I just feel those players would better improve our needs.

I've elaborated on why several times ad nauseum, but I'll do it again since I apparently offended you. First of all, I'm looking for guys that can contribute Day 1 -- that means polish, and it means taking guys with good fundamentals that were productive in college over guys with good 40 times and lots of upside. Guys I would target: Marlin Jackson David Pollack Carlos Rogers Matt Roth Blackstock - everything I've read and seen tells me he's a one-dimensional pass rush specialist. I want day 1 impact out of this draft and, regardless of talent, he won't have impact if he's only on the field in 3rd-and-long situations. Analysis: Project, not polished Browner - only 2 years of organized ball...pretty much ALL upside with very little experience. Analysis: Project, not polished Tuck - the only thing that worries me here is that I read his reports and often see "tweener". With the Chiefs, that scares me. Plus, he seems to be a carbon-bopy of Jared Allen and we really need a replacement for Eric Hicks. McFadden - I actually like this one... Canty - I worry about his injury status. If that's OK, he could be a good NFL DE. I really like your idea of going for Roby later. |

I LOVE all of these guys you mentioned: Marlin Jackson, David Pollack, Carlos Rogers, and Matt Roth! But, all of these guys will be gone in the 2nd round. With the exception of Jackson and Roth, I'd rather have Pollack and Rogers over Eramus James. I was merely focusing on the second round selections over Patterson. I really don't expect us to get anything other than a "project" in the second round, but if we were to draft a DB in the second round- that DB just might be a better nickle back than Battle or Bartee. I'm just not happy with picking up a DT in the second round- hence all my other choices as listed earlier. I do love those four guys you mentioned, and would be absolutely elated to have any of them- particularly if any of them fell in the 2nd round, but I don't see that happening.

a big problem is that there guys we probably are going to need in the 2nd round and miami wants a 2nd round for surtain.
trading for surtain undercuts our drafting a potientially key guy. like if jackson or roth are there in the 2nd ... but our 2nd is gone for surtain. dammit ... we should of signed a CB in free agency

Is Jordan Beck a late third round pick?
He played at Cal Poly Slo, not exactly a powerhouse.

I'd also have to say that picking James, when there are quality CBs there would really be moronic.
Andin round 2, if we don't trade the pick for Surtain, there's no way we should be taking a DT. That pick would have to be LB.

There really are a lot of players in the 2nd round that could contribute on D for us. I know, this is the real world, and I'm just dreaming. But sometimes, even a cynic like me has to have a dream. Dammit Carl!

like I said if KC doesn't make a play for Derrick Johnson at the #9 or #10 range I'll be pissed
