tell my sumpin, why would carolina take a RB when they already have foster? I know he is injury prone, but I don't think they would have wasted a draft pick on him just to take another one next year. Probably a good assesment on the cowboys pick. those fockers are all about drafting defense, but they need to draft a running back or quarterback. I have said that for I dont know how many years now, but maybe if parcells comes things might change

My thoughts

My thoughts

Cincinnati- Should not take a qb. I believe this team should not be about rebuilding, as they ALWAYS seem to have to do, but should be about making a shot at the playoffs. They should trade down the pick to someone and get an established player and maybe a few draft picks...on,

Detroit...I do not agree with going for charlie rogers....yes, he is a great wr, but they need an Oline to protect franchise Joey H. and thats all I have to say about that

Houston...like the call...once again, protect the future...

Bears...like the call......Miller going down and Chandler one concussion away from retirement..seems the way to go...

Arizona...Arizona should trade the pick....they need a new team.

Dallas does like Defense...Suggs would help

Vikings need Cbs....like the pick

Jacksonville...like the pick

Carolina.....Carolina needs help on O...They have a good start at building a great D...On o...I think they need a guy like rogers or maybe some Oline...

Baltimore is reestablishing their D... like the pick

Seattle needs D...like the pick..

St Louis.....Why the hell would the rams draft a QB. This would not make sense at all. Theres gonna be a QB controversay anyway next season the way it looks..and should be.. I see them drafting D...maybe a linebacker like hayes...

...Ok....thats enough..gl all

PUHD-
DeShaun Foster's knee injury might be career threatening. I think he had a knee problem before, and it healed incorrectly or something like that...

thanks marra, thought there really might be something there, but wasnt sure. Caro could really use help at any position so it wouldn't matter.

Couple things stand out:

Lee Suggs 1st RB taken??? McGahee, Johnson, at least should definitely go before him, not sure if he's a top 1st round guy.

Dave Raggone??? Rams??? Don't they have a 2 QB's already now? Plus any team that gets suckered into taking this guy is making a MISTAKE. I know his o-line sucked but I think he holds the ball too long, takes too many sacks, fumbles very easily, makes bad decisions and I don't think he has the strongest arm in the world.

All that leads me to the following...

My team the Bears taking Leftwich at #4, I'd love it, however the Bears would have no idea what to do with a QB that has an arm and can throw the ball down field. They are in love with the "Don't screw anything up, hand the ball off and please try to get the first down on 3rd and 6 with this 2 yard route" type of QB (miller, chandler, burris, wuerfuel, matthews, stenstrom, harbaugh...god I go on forever with this list).

It's making me sick to think about the possibility if them passing him up early in the first round (hopefully drafting Mcgahee or that d-lineman from Miami) but then trading up with their second pick to get that stiff Raggone. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

just my opinion, but dave ragone SEVERELY hurt his stock this year. yeah his team was mediocre, but he revealed A LOT of flaws that hes got. hes a big tough kid, but id be surprised if he gets drafted in the first round.

also- just through the grapevine, ive hear that andre johnson has a higher stock than charles rogers. personally i think rogers is the best receiver in the country- but johnsons pretty damn good too.

can't go wrong with either WR, but they usually take until year 2 or 3 before they provide BIG production. Moss the rare exception recently.

mcgahee has to be a first rounder


te- utecht, clark and joppru could be picked before pinky from asu

lions could go with homer rogers, get brock forsey later, but they still have luke staley,f his injury healed, im pretty sure his career is done for though...sick of stewart and his injuries, they need a speed back, stewart and his shnoz are getting old anyway


im curious to see what round dorsey goes, if he goes at all......dont think he will cut it in the pros at all....ala crouch
same with brad banks
