You said you "would not" have a problem with Davis, rather than "did not" have a problem, therefore "of course you do" is not grammatically correct. I just figured you'd know that I was responding to the last half of your post, since responding to your stuff about Davis with "of course you do" makes absolutely no sense. Well, uh, nevermind... |

Isn't "Consumer Economics" the new name for Home Economics? If so, that'll make him doubly valuable. He can play defense AND he can advise the team on how to remove stubborn grass stains from their uniforms.

as much as we need a playmaker like carlos rogers or thomas davis on defense, passing up mike williams would be tough. williams in our offense would be ridiculous. we almost wouldn't need a defense. almost.

one rookie WR i don't think is going to once again bump up our scoring avg so high that team can't torch us. We don't need anymore points! look at the colts and us - NO D = sitting at home. Picking up Surtain & a LB / CB is much smarter.
I can't figure out why we'd pick up another safety unless we're planning on shipping off some of the ones we have- and it seems like LB is a bigger need? |

If our scouting staff and Gunther are convinced he can come in at LB, then I am fine with that. He would be the second best 4-3 OLB after DJ. |

you act as if we haven't made upgrades already. if we get surtain that would make williams a possibility. almost. notice that key word i used again? almost. that means that even though adding williams WOULD put our offense at near untouchable levels, yes we still need more help on d.

Thats all I'm saying. When the weather gets crappy a O-line and two backs like LJ and Priest are worth their weight in gold. Throw in Tony G, Kris Wilson, Kennison and Boerichter back ( i've always like him with his size and deceptive speed) I think we're fine. The end goal is to get the D up to snuff - taking a Off player in the 1st just seems like you're cutting off your nose to spite your face. And I've heard mixed reviews of Williams - some say Keyshawn II other swear by him - I would have loved to have had the WR TB got last year, but what's done is done. Too bad we had to get some pointless wins and hurt our draft position. I'm still up for a LB - no rookie CB is going to come in and outplay Warfield probably - Surtain is the answer & with the new safety's fighting it out - why couldn't woods or wesley play nickel? I'm just hesitant to bring in a tweener S/LB - why not jump a few spots if available to get DJ? Is it at all possible to trade down and still get the CB & Blackstone (spelling?) with another 2nd? |

I don't think Davis is a tweener at all. He's a playmaker and we don't have nearly enough of those on our defense. If we can trade up to get DJ, I'm all for it, as long as we don't have to give up our entire draft to do it. And yes, we could trade down, get additional picks, and still get a CB like Marlin Jackson PLUS Blackstock or someone like that. |

I like either T. Davis or Rogers at #15. If they are both there, I would go with Davis if we have a deal for Surtain, Rogers if not.
I hope that Ware goes ahead of our #15 pick if we don't trade up. I am not yet sold on him. He seems to be shooting up the boards late, which IMO is a recipe for a bust. |
