OK now that is funny shit.

You know where I stand on most of those, but here goes:

Raji/Jackson:

I don't see it as positional quibbling at all. NT is way more important than a 5 technique - and I think going to the well twice in our first 2 picks speaks volumes about what they think Dorsey and McBride can or cannot do.

Magee/Gilbert:

Just a personal preference on my part, nothing more. I think Gilbert has more upside than Magee, I'm concerned Magee has already maxed out - which seems to be the case with several of the DL we've picked recently.

We're on the same page regarding Sidbury and Meridith.

Slauson:

Honestly, he was a throw in. If you've read anything of mine over the past 24 hours, you'd see that I think Lawrence might have been our best pick of the weekend. I'll admit I put Slauson in to make the point that we have no developmental OL on this roster with the exception of Herb Taylor.

Shipley:

I fully expected Pioli to jump on this guy in the early 7th. If you've read Patriot Reign, he talks about how no one looked twice at Dan Koppen because he had short arms and average measurables. Pioli overlooked that, and Koppen has been a fixture on the OL. Thought Shipley could do the same, and I think he will eventually for Pittsburgh.

Ellerbe:

He'll end up being a damn solid player for Baltimore. Meanwhile, we spent a draft pick on competition for Barth, which could have been accomplished in FA.

And trading a future pick to take a 7th round TE? That makes absolutely no sense.

But hey, I don't work for a NFL franchise, so my opinion is invalid according to some around here.

ROFL

Seriously.....tears.

For me it comes down to this:

1) I don't see a 2-gap NT as being worth a #3 overall. Nor do I see a 2-gap DE as being worth a #3 overall.

2) Raji had lots of red flags around his character.

With those in mind, I take Jackson.

Magee's experience is as a 1-gap DT. If they plan on using him as a 2-gap DE, he's anything but maxed out. He has a whole new position to learn. Other than that, I agree with you - six of one and one half dozen of the other.

This. I could have also seen us take a flyer on the guy from Penn State. He had a similar profile - short arms, average measurables, but dominated in the Big 10.

Ellerbe:

He'll end up being a damn solid player for Baltimore. Meanwhile, we spent a draft pick on competition for Barth, which could have been accomplished in FA.

And trading a future pick to take a 7th round TE? That makes absolutely no sense.

I would have loved to see Ellerbe here. I just don't understand taking a kicker. Also what is it with this team and taking TE's in the 7th? Maybe Clark has a thing for them or something.

LMAO My personal favorite part was "You're a stupid, ****ing **** of a person."

Shipley is the guy from Penn State.

To me, the problem lies in the fact that some people just can't seem accept that there are a few of us who aren't simply going to say "Yay. we have Scott Pioli, we don't need to express our opinions" and when we do, we constantly are told we don't know as much as Pioli.

Yeah, we ****ing know that, but it doesn't mean I can't have an opinion and express, and when someone disagrees, we should be able to have a rational discussion, like the one here between you and Direckshun.

Hamas and I disagreed over the weekend, but we didn't resort to name calling.

How is it that those of us who are accused of being aggressive can have a rational discourse when we are debating between each other?

Also did anyone pick up Cullen Harper yet??? I wouldn't mind taking a look at him as a FA if he's still out there

WRONG THREAD ****ER!!!!!!! :thumb:

Because we're all in the same club, man. Didn't you realize?

Did you guys get membership cards....because I never got mine.

I have a "**** True Fans" headband.

I'm pretty stupid, but nobody has ever come after me for being a dumb****.

Maybe I'm not pushing the right buttons.

Try this. WHY DON'T YOU GO SUCK OFF SANCHEZ FOR AWHILE!!!!

Would that do it?
