Do you agree with Herm? Do you agree with his reasoning?

No, I don't really agree with him.

I think you take the BPA regardless of position.

That being said, I also don't agree with the knuckleheads that say Herm can't draft and/or coach WR's. His 5 years in New York were INFINITELY better than Vermeil's 5 years here.

Justin Harrell at 23 isn't much of a reach, IMO.

Harrell has a clean bill of health and was interviewed last night on path to the draft, seems to be a good kid, played through injury before surgery took him out the rest of the year..... I like a guy that will battle through pain, good character.

they said with a clean bill of health he is quickly becoming a strong third place in the DT list and moving up to a possible first round pick.....

I keep forgetting we have these 2 young WR. Webb is 6-2 and Hannon in 6-3. I say we give these guys a shot. Try to draft a DT, or maybe deal for Jenkins.

I think people are taking this story way too seriously...this is all pre-draft posturing to try to throw the mock-draft experts off from our true intentions.

I agree with many others who have said...best available.

BIG_DADDY · 04-13-2007, 10:18 AM

All I have to say is I am sure glad Herm fixed the offense.

**CosmicPal** · 04-13-2007, 10:41 AM

It doesn't surprise me.

I think the Chief's draft position being where they are- should do nothing more than take the best overall available. We need another good draft year. Last year was a good draft- if we can duplicate that with some good young talent, then we can add depth through free agency.

I am one to believe we might have been 'secretly' blessed with some true talent in Hannon and Webb. I'll give Herm the benefit of the doubt and trust that he believes in these guys and their future to this team.

Just take the best damn player available in this year's draft.

Adding Jenkins to the D-Line via trade would be a tremendous boost to our draft as it wouldn't make drafting a DT such a major need.

You guys have to note that this is an article put in the star based on Herm's earlier comments. It's not pre-draft deception, its an opinion on what we may do based on what Herm has said in the past and who we have scheduled to visit.

I remember reading Webb was considered a 1st day talent who had character issues. He had like 1100 yards his senior year. From what I've read he's a hard worker and I couldn't be happier with his character. We may have gotten 2 absolute steals in Webb and Page(although don't get me wrong, Webb has not proven himself at all yet).

Yeah, when he first came here he stated that the Offense scored to quickly and didn't give the defense a chance to rest.

He did fix the scoring too quickly problem but his 3 and out offense doesn't seem to give the defense any more time to rest.

See, I have a real problem with that scoring too quickly crap of his. It reminds me of a CEO of a company one time, telling me that we were selling too much, we should give production a break. I quit shortly after that.

You score when you ****ing can, whether it is 10 seconds or 10 minutes IMO. I watched too many years of this conservative offense shit.

The Webb-Hannon love affair sounds strangely similar to the smoke blown up our kiesters with

Jesse Haynes
Richard Smith
Ted White........

Those were undersized slow players.

But yeah, could be lying.

Suppose they would like to draft a WR or two & one doesn't fall for good value. Why trash the WRs you may have to go with? confidence does matter in young players

Brock · 04-13-2007, 10:59 AM

Why blab about receivers you might want to draft?
