I dunno if there's anyone I'd absolutely hate given that we pick at 14, but I'd love either Lotulelei, Austin or Milliner (if injury concerns cause him to drop that far)

I'm not in love with T'eo by any means but if the Packers end up with him at 26 it's probably decent value.

if the browns give up a first for mallet they have officially drained all my good will from the last few years

Whenever a Mallett trade has been reported over the past few months it has always been for a second rounder. I would be less angry about giving up a 2nd for Mallett than a 1st for Smith/Manuel.

Although I'll be upset in general if we draft a QB in the first 4 rounds. Let Norv at least have a go at fixing Weeden.

Watch you guys get Teoed (which would be even funnier because you had Keuchly).

I don't know what's going on over there and obviously a lot of the decisions they have made or haven't are direct orders from Woody.

Only reason Rex still has a job and Sanchez hasn't bee released is due to cap hits and paying 2 head coaches at the same time when you already paying two GMs.

That I get. What I don't get is why they would be so quick to move on from Mark who they wasted such a high pick on and then gave him an extension. I think he stinks but you can't honestly evaluate him until you give him actual weapons. When their OLINE was good and they had 2-3 RBs that offense wasn't terrible. He also had Braylen Edwards playing at his best.

If you don't like a QB in this draft, and most teams don't, give one last final try out year to Sanchez. Provide him with a running game and weapons to throw to. If he still fucks up then draft a QB from next year's crop.

Are you serious?

Sanchez is a bust. His problem is not his wide receivers or his coaches. Problem is him. Unfortunately for the Jets their previous GM was a moron who scrambled to lock up a bad player and now the Jets have to lay in their wet bed. On top of that Sanchez' biggest competition last season was Tim Tebow.

Austin brings more to the table than "just a slot guy" though. If you have an offensive mind that's willing to get the guy as many touches as possible in the game (as a Harvin type space player for instance), the value for such a player goes up, IMO.
Click to expand...

While I agree that Austin is a special talent. Height matters, and typically highly drafted WR are taller, more muscled guys who can fight for balls on the outside. This is even more true today with teams employing more vertical schemes than they ever have. I will be surprised if Austin is drafted top 10.

Te'o will sure do a lot to alleviate the Packers D's "soft" reputation.

Some team is going to get extremely lucky with Lotulelei at #10-15. IMO he is one of the top 3 players in the whole draft and the most dominant defensive lineman I've seen coming out of college since Suh.

You're in good shape! No way we trade up or get either of those guys. I think we'll have some offers for a lower 1st round draft.

Hate:

1. Manti Te'o


Te'o is honestly the only pick in the first round that would annoy me (2nd round? No issue with it). I'd list Lacy but I don't think there's a chance in hell the Giants go RB so it's not worth the effort.

Yours is the same as mine except I have Fluker above Carradine/Ansah (I'd much prefer Ansah over Carradine).

I would be upset if we picked any of the Georgia backers too.

On that Sanchez post...

Who was the last poor playing QB who improved significantly after receiving better weapons?

I pretty much don't care who other teams draft this year, save for one exception - I REALLY hope the Giants don't get Ansah. Can't bear the thought of him panning out and sharing that line with JPP.

Not in this draft; especially when next years is so much stronger in that regard. Minnesota should probably trade out for a future 1 next year if possible.

I wouldnt argue that. I'd like to see if Ponder develops this year with a good set of receivers.

Either way, why draft a QB this year when next year is looking awesome.

Just curious what do you like about Te'o? Guy is slow, can't cover, is either naive or retarded, isn't a credible leader, and against better competion (Alabama) they ran the ball right up his dickhole.

I'm not sure what his strong points are.
