I am of two minds on this one. On one hand, I'd like to see a strong indication of DV's 'stamp' on this team. On the other, if DV is going to make a stamp, it will be in his efforts to land 'his' Qb. I have noticed his approach to QbWATG [Quarterbacks who aren't Tren Green], and he is decidely reserved [note Flutie the 'stopgap'].

What you're missing is Vermeil's infatuation with Green, and Peterson's infatuation with Vermeil...

Is it a done deal?
Probably. Just because a thing should not be done does not mean it will not be done. xoxo~ gaz watching a bad decision roll like a juggernaut. |

The old college boys,(DV & CP) love to do the circle jerk,they need a young pivot man (Green).
Need I say more ?

In this year's draft, what's the difference between a one or a two? This is a deep draft with few "superstars." I, for one, would rather draft in the second than pick the best back at 12. Bennett could be a bust. Heck, anyone at twelve could be a bust. Second rounders are a lot easier on the cap, and Trent is a good LONG TERM solution to our QB situation(Star article). I don't like giving up the third, but we do net a good qb. Do the deal, do it now!

Pitt-
It is the difference between Richard Seymour or Ennis Davis at DT. Or Fred Smoot or Andre Dyson at CB. Or Steve Hutchinson or Jonas Jennings at OG. Big difference. xoxo~ gaz not quite so nonchalant about that #12 pick. |

at RB Micheal Bennett or LaMont Jordan, this is the reason why KC wants that 2nd round pick.

Gaz,
I understand the point you're trying to make, but you're comparing 1st rounders to 3rd or 4th rounders (instead of 2nd rounders). A more likely comparison is: Smoot to Middlebrooks Seymour to Fatafehi Hutchinson to Gandy Obviously a 1st rounder has more perceived talent, but we can get a very good player at 42. |

Here's an interesting article on draft positioning. (I realize that these aren't the norm, but their not really outliers either. This article doesn't deal with 2-5 round picks that have become stars.)

KevB-
Pitt asked for the difference between a 1st & a 2nd, not a 1st & a 3rd. I took those players directly from mock drafts. They are not my ratings. They are the rankings of guys who have been doing mock drafts for years. I realize there is always disagreement on where players will be drafted, but those names I listed were fairly consistent on several boards. xoxo~ gaz has no published mock draft to his name.

Yes, we might miss out on a Fred Smoot or a Gerald Warren, but what good does it do if your QB is Todd Collins?
We've been down the "good defense, awful skill position players" road before, and we already know it doesn't work for KC. |

Only one problem with your implied statement Clint, why are you convinced that Trent Green is a good skill position player (and not just average)?
