That would be a damn good start to the draft if it came to fruition. It's a crap shoot speculation wise at this point though. We're so far off before the draft gets here right now there's no way to predict it with any kind of accuracy who's going to go where. That being said I would be ok with those picks.

PhilFree:arrow:

If you click on the link and check out the picks, there are several guys available at each of our 2nd and our 3rd round picks who would be pretty hard to pass up at that point. In fact, looking at it, I am not sure I would come close to going with what Walter did, but it would not be totally bad either.

Berry
Hughes
Spikes
Williams

That wouldn't be bad either, BUT

That means the O-line doesn't get addressed until round 4. :shrug:

Unfortunately, that's not going to happen.

With an uncapped year ahead, everyone who was slated to be an UFA now has additional year of service.

Free agency will be very, very thin.

If you want that....then I'd rather see them go out and sign Franklin (NT, 49ers)....he'll be cheaper than Wilfork and he can share time with Williams.

That would go along way to fixing the defense but we have to address the O line with one of those picks. I'd probably drop Spikes in lieu of an O lineman. The main thing is for those four picks no mmatter who we pick to actually work out. Which is where Pioli needs to step up and hit a couple home runs.

That could be a possibility if we do some work in FA. We could go out and get Logan Mankins to play the RG position. If O'Callaghan can some how improve this year....then he might be able to work at RT next year. We could easily grab a center in the 4th round.

Yep not alot of "big" names that's for sure.
This was one of the few articles I have seen listing them.
http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d81423860&template=with-video-with-comments&confirm=true


Tackles

Starting tackles get paid, but this bunch includes mostly guys who were already on the street looking for jobs last season and into this season, with Chad Clifton (suffering through an injury-plagued season) the lone real exception.

Chad Clifton, Mike Gandy, Brandon Gorin, Cornell Green, Artis Hicks, Jon Jansen, Levi Jones, Scott Kooistra, Damion McIntosh, Tony Pashos, Ephraim Salaam, Barry Sims, Mark Tauscher, Langston Walker, Mike Williams.
Guards

What if interior linemen are more your thing? Okay, here's all the guards and centers. Again, hard to find someone you can count on to be a solid starter at this point. Kevin Mawae is the stud of the bunch, but he's 38.

Eugene Amano, Jeremy Bridges, Damion Cook, Kynan Forney, Rex Hadnot, Ben Hamilton, Russ Hochstein, Montrae Holland, Stephen Neal, Chester Pitts, Tutan Reyes, Ryan Tucker, Keydrick Vincent, Bobbie Williams, Billy Yates.

Centers

Nick Leckey, Kevin Mawae, Seth McKinney, Dennis Norman, Wade Smith, John Wade.

Nothing wrong with that. O-linemen don't have to be taken high.

We'd better take o line high and low if we are really going to try and fix it. Not with our 1st pick but with one of seconds or are third and then with one or two of our fifths.

Using that latest draft:
1. Berry.
2a. Hughes or Graham.
2b. Spikes or Iupati
3. Johnson/Williams/Gilyard.

You could easily get through the first 3 rounds without addressing the OL which wouldn't be good.

PhilFree:arrow:

I think that center is the biggest need on the O-line right now and it's possible that O'Dowd will be there with the late second pick. He'll likely be there with the first second round pick, unless he skyrockets up the boards after the combine.

The question is does Haley have the balls to do that? Stick Cassel out there behind a young offensive line?

Does he have a choice?

If he walks out this offensive line next year:

Albert/Waters/Niswanger/Goff/O'Callaghan

Then Cassel is going to get killed.....and Haley is going to get fired. He HAS to know that the offensive line has to change next year. Goff is done. Waters is on his last legs and Niswanger doesn't deserve the starting spot.

While I'm in total agreement with your supposition, the mere fact that Goof started 8 games while Allemen and NSukwe were picking splinters out their respective asses makes me wonder.

Oh, and the fact that Wade Smith is clearly the most athletic center (and probably right guard and tackle), yet he's relegated to the bench, week in and week out.

I'm not backing Haley's vision with the O-line to this point.

Do you realize that Wallace Gilberry, a rookie free agent defensive end from Alabama that was signed off of the Giants practice squad last season, has had a greater impact than the number three overall, $28 million dollar man, Tyson Jackson?

Ty Jack has 11 solo tackles this season and no sacks.

Gilberry, in limited duty, has 13 solo tackles and 3.5 sacks.

That's some stellar personnel decision making by Pioli.

Different production from different positions. Gilberry probably got his sacks because Jackson was tying up the blockers. Sriously speaking it's just to soon to judge Jackson.

I posted this over at Draft Planet, but I wanted some feedback on this: what do you guys think about taking Toby Gerhart, the big RB from Stanford, with our Gonzalez pick or 3rd round choice?

He's a bruiser who can be lethal in the red zone...seems like a perfect counter-balance to Charles' lightning-quick speed.

Wow...I don't know that anyone clicked through the actual "player evaluations" from Mr. McGuire on that site, but wow. The knocks on Taylor Mays are equal to his positives. And Berry's list is lopsided to the "must draft" side...I found the cons on the USC kid the most interesting though.

Knocks on Mays:

1. Takes false steps in coverage and poor angles.
2. Lacks instincts.
3. Zero ball skills. *Wow. That f*cking hurts.
4. Not much of a playmaker. *And yet predicted to be drafted in the top 10?
5. Poor tackling technique; throws body around without using arms/hands to wrap up. *That I have heard plenty about, concerning Mr. Mays.
6. Hasn't improved his weaknesses going back to sophomore season. *Another burn, is there a better predictor?
7. Occasionally not in position.
8. Plays out of control.
9. More of an athlete than a football player. *Wasn't this the knock on Orakpo last year too?

What QB would the Bills not give up on? Edwards, who has been benched? Fitzpatrick, who has sucked since coming in for Edwards? Or Brohm, who was just signed off the practice squad?

Buffalo is in desperate need of a QB, and I'm sure a new coach would jump at the chance to draft a top one in the 1st.

Practice squad.

If you want that....then I'd rather see them go out and sign Franklin (NT, 49ers)....he'll be cheaper than Wilfork and he can share time with Williams.

I think I read that the 49ers will probably slap the franchise tag on Franklin.

Do they plan to develop him, or is he just fodder? I mean, I know you don't know what's in their heads over there, but maybe you heard or can remember something pertaining to him?

I haven't read a single peep about him.

Just another note on Gerhart...even though Stanford lost tonight, he had 20 carries, 136 yards rushing, 1 catch for 29 yards, and 4 TD's. His long run was 61 yards for a TD. He's 6'1", 235 pounds. I'm telling you, he would be a great change up to Charles...and could probably be had in the late 2nd/early 3rd.

Have you seen him? Hes white.

And yet he's fast enough to outrun the entire Cal secondary. He's a red zone beast. And he can't be a moran, you know, Stanford and all.

I'm sure there are better scouting videos on Gerhart, but here's something I found.

I wouldn't mind us taking a RB in the late 2nd-5th but with the holes on our team and the talent on the defense this year it wouldn't be my first choice.

If we take a running back before at least one olinemen, I might blow a fuse.

And I'm not advocating him as a 1st round choice. Like I said before, I think he can be had with our late 2nd rounder/early 3rd. I just think it would be nice to get a big bruiser to have in the red zone and in short yardage situations.

Well by first choice I meant first choice in those rounds. I would go Defense and Oline unless you have a RB graded high thats a complete steal fall to you.

That comment wasn't really directed at you more at the mock, but like I said, I wouldn't mind us taking a RB. We could use all the weapons on offense we can get.

I think that center is the biggest need on the O-line right now and it's possible that O'Dowd will be there with the late second pick. He'll likely be there with the first second round pick, unless he skyrockets up the boards after the combine.


I like O'Dowd as well with the late 2nd (if he lasts). I think we have to draft a center. Isn't Niswager a FA this year? Even if not, I cannot stomach watching him man that spot past this year.
