Those dolts will trade down with some hapless team and get four number ones over the next two years somehow............:tsk:

[WARHORSE]

BTW, if Dorsey falls to the Cheevies at 5, I KNOW they are going one direction: Oline.

Sooooo...............I think we should trade up and get Dorsey.

Number one player in the draft, a beast for years to come.

We would have to. I just cant see us havin to face him twice a year.

Two months ago, King Carl said Dorsey was No. 1 on the board...

But, he'll screw it up...and draft Clady or Albert...

(Please note that I say that the Chiefs drafting Clady at No. 5 is a mistake, whereas the Broncos drafting Clady at No. 12 is good...this is because of who else is on the board...:D)

[turftoad]

To bad Green Habit isn't here. It was always his job to post every Broncos pick with annalysis of each. He's done it for like the last 5 years.

GH, where the hell are you when we need you.

I was watching the ESPNnews coverage of the AFC West that I taped from earlier and they were talking about SD taking a RB with their one first day pick. I know there logic was that they don't have many holes, but it hardly seems like you would take a RB when you have LT and only one pick in the first 4 or 5 rounds.

Talking about Clady now on NFL Network.

[MOtorboat]

Were is BOSS?

...at the Draft.

Thanks for the reminder, I washed my Cutler jersey earlier and forgot to "Fluff dry".......... I would have worn it wet if need be though. :D


I Love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:

Boss is at the draft.

[claymore]

Were is BOSS?

I think he may be at the draft...............

[Tned]

On Clady, they said he was a great physical talent, but made his share of mental mistakes. They said it was likely related to not starting enough and entering college as a defensive player that was switched to offense.

I take it there is another? I hadn't looked. It's been 10 minutes :salute:

I hope this means we pass on Clady.

Shanny hates mental mistakes. They put you in Shanny's dog house.

[MOtorboat]

Clay...lay off the booze...you're not even going to make it to the second pick.

[claymore]

Man, I hope someone trades up in front of Oakland and takes McFadden. I don't want him in Oak.

[BroncoAV06]

What a day draft and playoff games, oh my.

[MOtorboat]

Man, I hope someone trades up in front of Oakland and takes McFadden. I don't want him in Oak.

My boss/friend is one of the people coming over to my place, he's a huge Arkansas fan (from there)...he's been pissed off all week about McFadden probably going to the Raiders, because he's a Chiefs fan too.

[MOtorboat]

What a day draft and playoff games, oh my.

On NBC :marchmellow:

My friends aren't hockey fans, though, so we'll see how this goes...

[jrelway]

cheers fellas to a good draft. i got this weird feeling shanahans up to no good. may bust out some crazy draft day trades.

[claymore]

Man, I hope someone trades up in front of Oakland and takes McFadden. I don't want him in Oak.Yeah, this might be my very last day of liking McFadden.

[Tned]

:salute:

[Broncospsycho77]

I'm gonna have to go from wishing him the best to trash talking about his fumble-itis... hopefully he holds out of a contract...

[Tned]

So, if Baltimore does trade up to 2, which Scheffter is talking about, to grab Matt Ryan, who does Atlanta then pick and what if any domino effect does that have?

[MOtorboat]

Dallas trying to move up?????? Under the newer chart they can get into 4-5th pick with there 2 firsts.

[yardog]

I think Atlanta takes Dorsey with or without that trade.

[Broncospsycho77]

I heard that taking Long was almost official; they were still looking at trade offers if an enticing one came up.

Not to be lewd, but how does she feel about your "hurry up offense"?

...and since this is draft day, are we only allowed to drink draft beer? I need a ruling on this one.

Here's to a good draft guys. The way it looks like Dorsey may fall, I'd love to see Shanny climb the ladder for him.

[BroncoAV06]

And stuff is going on at the top, when it is are time we will hear.

[OB]

damn - i gotta go to the zoo - cyall l8r

GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Skinny]

I've seen enough of McFadden in the SEC. I don't want to see him at all in the AFC West. He may bust (i doubt it), but he'll look like a HOFer against us till we get our defense squared away.

By Jason Cole, Yahoo! Sports
Apr 24, 9:36 pm EDT

The $16 million, $17 million or $18 million (depending on the contract) question that nobody could answer truthfully Thursday at the annual NFL draft luncheon: Which one of you top prospects wants to be a Raider?

Sadly for the once-proud Oakland Raiders, the answer is none of the five yet-to-be signed players in attendance (newly minted Dolphins offensive tackle Jake Long is the exception) at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers really wants to join the franchise.

Or as one agent put: “Sure, somebody is going to want to go fourth overall because of the money, but they’re not going to like the prospects once they get there.”

There is no greater indictment of a team than the stricken look that comes upon a player’s face when he realizes he must go to the Raiders, the NFL’s wasteland. Sure, plenty of players, such as safety Gibril Wilson, cornerback DeAngelo Hall, defensive tackle Tommy Kelly and running back Justin Fargas, lined up to take the money. That’s why when the Raiders pick at No. 4 overall on Saturday, some player will manage a smile for the cameras. And if he smiles, he should get an Oscar with his Raiders jersey.

Draftees are probably thinking through scenarios where they can avoid becoming Raiders. Take running back Darren McFadden, who has drawn a lot of interest from the Raiders and the New York Jets, who pick No. 6 overall. The thinking in that camp is if LSU defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey goes No. 2 overall to St. Louis, Atlanta at No. 3 might trade with the Jets at No. 6, giving New York a clear path to him.

Over where Ohio State defensive tackle Vernon Gholston was sitting, his camp was hoping that either he or Virginia defensive end Chris Long would go No. 2 to the Rams. Then Dorsey would go No. 3, McFadden No. 4 and Gholston would end up at No. 5 (to Kansas City) or at No. 6 to the Jets.

Even Long, the son of Hall of Fame Raiders defensive lineman Howie Long, really has no desire to follow in his father’s footsteps. Part of that is the automatic pressure that goes with being a Raider Legacy (boy, is that an odd term these days), but much of it is because even his father knows that the Raiders just aren’t run well anymore.

Or as one person close to Chris Long said mockingly in recent days: “There’s no way you can tell what the Raiders are going to do because not even (owner) Al (Davis) knows what he’s doing.”

Ouch.

About the only player unconcerned with the fate of being No. 4 is Boston College quarterback Matt Ryan. He was asked to give a mock draft for the top six picks. When he got to No. 4 he said with comfort, “You know they’re not taking me,” an obvious reference to the fact that Oakland took quarterback JaMarcus Russell at No. 1 overall last year.

Ryan has the most uncertain Saturday of the lot. There’s talk that he could end up with Atlanta, Kansas City or Baltimore at No. 8. When asked how he’d feel if he took an Aaron Rodgers- or Brady Quinn-type fall in the draft, Ryan took the moment in stride, giving a very professional response.

“Five years ago, if you told me I’ll be a first-round pick, I’d take it and be happy. If you told me a year ago I’ll be a first-round pick, I’ll take it. Anywhere in the first round would be great,” he said. “Hopefully, I’m not sitting too long, but I’ll be excited with whoever takes me. It’s going to be exciting, no question.”

Whoever goes No. 4 to Oakland, it’s hard to believe they’ll feel the same way.

20 more minutes. I'm gonna pass out from excitement before it starts.

[MOtorboat]

20 more minutes. I'm gonna pass out from excitement before it starts.

Nope, that's just the hangover :wave:

[mclark]

By picking up Robertson, we added the kind of flexibility we needed. We can probably draft Stewart now if we want to go that direction.

[Bronco4ever]

Nope, that's just the hangover :wave:

Could be. I felt pretty sober by the time I went to bed though. I blew a .074.

[Ziggy]

That normally would not give me a hang over...

[Bronco4ever]

That normally would not give me a hang over...

Yeah me either. I hardly felt buzzed at the time. Is it bad that I wish I had a fresh 6 pack in front of me right now for the draft?

[mclark]

Sleeper pick:

Thaddeus Coleman, OT, Mississippi Valley State

14. Thaddeus Coleman, Mississippi Valley State, 6-7, 308, Tackle

Coleman came into his senior year underappreciated, but could be one of the sleeper picks of the 2008 NFL draft. His stock has risen significantly since his pro day and he could be one of the top non-combine invitees to be selected. Though still extremely unpolished as a player, Coleman has the size, particularly his height and long arms, to be an appealing pick. Turned in a strong week at the Texas vs. The Nation all-star game, showing skill as both as a run and pass blocker. Should thrive with NFL coaching. Didn't have a position coach in college, but was still the dominant offensive lineman in the SWAC. His father, Michael Coleman, played with the Washington Redskins and the New Orleans Saints. Very personable and should be a great addition to any NFL locker room. Is definitely a project, but has the ability to play the important left tackle position in the NFL and could prove to be a great investment in the middle-to-late rounds.

They will be dumb not to go with the "other" long.

[Nick]

as you know the first round belongs to the miami dolphins, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! lol


Do you think the small shirt will fit?

[mclark]

I agree with McShay: Ghoulston is a pass rusher but not much else. HIs low number of non-sack tackles indicates to me that his value will be as a pass-rusher only -- which is alot. I'd go with Long ahead of Ghoulston.

[Slick]

lol, sorry to hear that dude. I could'nt imagine ...

I passed up 2 customers for a 1:00PM dive to come home. It was funny. I'm underwater wondering "Who's on the clock?" :lol:

OMG! The dolphins picked Jake Long! What a surprise!

OLB in a 3-4, starting to think Jets might consider if he falls. Think he will flourish in that position... playmaker

[yardog]

At least you didnt have to mow the lawn. :D

I was looking for things to do so time would pass quicker.

[Hoshdude7]

At least you didnt have to mow the lawn. :D

Ya think that's tough! I just had to dig 800 SQ FT worth of footers!

[CoachChaz]

Carriker is capable of moving to DE...I think Dorsey would be a smart pick for the Rams. On the other habd...Little isn't getting younger, so...they should benefit either way.

[RunYouOver]

In terms of timing, it's like we are picking 11th.
4 minutes or so for the Rams to pick...

Should be taking Chris Long

[Nick]

I was looking for things to do so time would pass quicker.

Me too, I was running all over the place with my kids, getting them changed, changing their butts, my wife thought I was on drugs :laugh:

[Slick]

At least you didnt have to mow the lawn. :D

No shit. I shouldn't be complaining. They're actually showing the draft on EPSN2 deportes. I'm a happy gringo.

[Nick]

NOOOOOO That means dorsey is going to be in our division

[Stargazer]

Michael Vick no more.

[Hobe]

I hope Ryan can scramble and is good to his dog. ;)

[shank]

come on raiders! pick gholston!!!!

[claymore]

Hopefully Al davis is the one making the call and he screws up and drafts Phelix Jones on accident.

[CoachChaz]

NOOOOOO That means dorsey is going to be in our division

...and McFadden

[honz]

Will the Raiders take McFadden? I think so.

[broncohead]

McFadden or Gholsten will be a Raider. Al Davis can't help himself when he sees that athletism. Probably McFadden IMO.

[claymore]

The Broncos are growing more interested in Oregon running back Jonathan Stewart with their first-round pick, an NFL source said just before the first round began.

The source said Denver and the Carolina Panthers are among the few teams who favor Stewart, who is coming off toe surgery, over Illinois running back Rashard Mendenhall.

The Panthers, with the No. 13 pick, may take Stewart if the Broncos pass on him a pick earlier, the source said.

Stewart, 5-feet-10 and 235 pounds, rushed for 1,469 yards and 10 touchdowns last fall as a junior for the Ducks.

http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_9066555

[Hoshdude7]

Plz take Gholston.

[Nick]

Al Davis normaly goes quick com on D. Jackson Cal :salute:

Do not get dorsey!

I love the new ten minute time rule.

[Nomad]

I know! That'll mean two former LSU players on the Raiders:tsk:!

[Nick]

http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_9066555

I would not mind stewart what so ever... He is a very tuff runner. My boy at my work is a duck and I have been telling him all season long he is a stud. 20-25 carrie back, mark my words.

[claymore]

Here we go. Booo raiders!

[BroncoWave]

Great, now our division has LT, LJ, and D-Mac. I hope we shore up that run defense.

[claymore]

fudge

[DenverBronkHoes]

raiders are going to get good again

[honz]

I really hope I'm right about McFadden being somewhat bust-tastic...

[Hobe]

We need a run stuffer!

So what...we have Travis Henry.

The Falcons screwed us McFadden and dorsey on div rivals :mad:

[yardog]

:tsk:Not funny coach not funny at all.
Sorry Tubby.

[BANJOPICKER1]

Negatives: Has very good field vision, but needs to show more patience waiting for his blocks to develop (will out-run his protection, at times)...Strong open-field runner, but needs to develop better ball security and protect the ball closer to his body, as fumble issues posed a big problem in 2007 (15 fumbles, five turnovers, see Chattanooga, Troy, Florida International and Louisiana State games)...Has good inside running skills, but must improve his lower-body strength...Will sometimes get upright in his stance, allowing defenders to clog the rush lanes (see 2007 Chattanooga, Auburn, Mississippi State and Louisiana State games)...Protects the ball well in traffic, but most of his turnovers come on improper ball distribution in the open...Also has a high amount of fumbles fielding the kickoff, as he tends to run before securing the ball...Was hurt in an off-field fight in July, 2006, undergoing surgery to repair a left toe fracture...Has natural hands as a receiver, but needs to improve extending for the pass away from his frame...Sometimes drifts in his routes and needs to show better cutting ability on his breaks.

[CoachChaz]

We need a run stuffer!

I thought that's why we traded for Robertson...my bad

[Thnikkaman]

Don't hold your breath. McFadden is the truth.

Don't tell me you honestly believe that.

[Davii]

Damn! The Saints are offering the Chiefs the damn moon for this pick!

[RunYouOver]

3 minutes or so till the Chiefs pick...I hope they don't trade down.

[BroncoWave]

Sam Adams?

http://extras.mnginteractive.com/live/media/site36/2007/1203/20071203_102441_Sadmas120307_200.jpg

[honz]

Looks like it's Dorsey to the Chiefs...ut oh!

[denbroncofan26]

Haha another dumb player prone to making mistakes off the field going to the raiders. In my opinion McFADden is just a FAD of the draft and won't be a great player. He will be decent and by no means a slouch but certainly no adrian peterson or LT or LJ

[Nick]

Chiefs will not have a DE, look for them to get lawrence in 2nd because they just got dorsey here

[Hobe]

Sam Adams?

Sam was very good at one time. Unfortunately ol’ Sam was over the hill, or perhaps under the hill by the time he got to Denver.

[BroncoWave]

Don't tell me you honestly believe that.

I watched him in college and he is one of the best players I have ever seen in college football. There are also several former SEC coaches who say he is the best RB from the SEC since Bo Jackson, and that includes Emmit Smith. You're blind if you think he is going to be a bust.

[Buff]

Great news that KC goes defense... I hate that Dorsey and McFadden are in the AFC West... But our chances of scoring Clady look good.

[denbroncofan26]

wow, what a great pick by the chiefs, i wish we could have him

[broncohead]

No To Clady!!

[Nick]

Great news that KC goes defense... I hate that Dorsey and McFadden are in the AFC West... But our chances of scoring Clady look good.

Sorry, there is so much uncertenty with the draft. It surely is entertaining, but unless you have a crystal ball that tells you what McFadden is going to do in the next 5 years, I wouldn't be saying thingls like "McFadden is the Truth".

[Hoshdude7]

So who wants to go trolling onto the other teams forums after the draft so we can tell them how bad their picks were?

[RunYouOver]

Now comes the pick that usually draws the largest reaction....the Jets 1st rounder

[Retired_Member_001]

I'm so excited for our pick.

I'm worried it's going to be a receiver, but hopefully it's an OT or RB.

[Stargazer]

So who wants to go trolling onto the other teams forums after the draft so we can tell them how bad their picks were?

Kinda hard when one is Dorsey and the other is McFadden.

Sorry, there is so much uncertenty with the draft. It surely is entertaining, but unless you have a crystal ball that tells you what McFadden is going to do in the next 5 years, I wouldn't be saying thingls like "McFadden is the Truth".

The guy who coached Herschel Walker at UGA and the guy that coached Bo Jackson at Auburn have both said that D-Mac is in a league with both of them. And I understand that everyone now feels obligated to bash him since he's a Raider now but if he had gone to Denver, yall would already be polishing his bust for Canton.

[Hobe]

Two of our Div. foes just got stronger. Crap !

Maybe!?! In his declining years ol' Greasy Al has made Pluses into minuses.

your Heath Ledger avitar is pretty classless man.. Is that your version of humor?

[nj10]

Hopefully Robertson steps up and becomes McFadden's kryptonite in the middle of our D-Line.

[Nomad]

Jets fans are crazy.

And funny! I enjoy watching the Jets fans on draft day!

[Hoshdude7]

I wish Boss would go smack Al Davis.

[BANJOPICKER1]

Negatives: Has a thick frame and while not sloppy, he does lack solid muscle tone, but does compensate with outstanding initial quickness and lower body strength...While he explodes off the snap, he has just marginal speed to make plays in long pursuit (best when shooting the inside gaps rather than try to make plays on the outside)...Has a strong lower body, but he needs to improve his base (gets narrow in his stance), as blockers have had success getting underneath his pads to lock on and wash him out of the play (see 2007 Tulane, Kentucky and Tennessee, and 2006 Tulane and Mississippi State games)...Must do a better job of planting his foot and anchoring vs. double teams (has good hand placement, but needs to counter better at times)...Best when taking angles or shooting gaps (gets too caught up in the battle when taking on isolated blockers at the point of attack)...Lack of ideal size might limit him to one-gap schemes...Generates good penetration, but for some reason, he fails to seal the deal on the quarterback (has only seven pressures in 51 games)...Does not display an array of pass rush moves, but shows good burst on the bull rush...Good complimentary type, but by declining postseason all-star invites it leaves one to wonder if he can dominate at the next level or is a player who was covered up by the LSU gang-tackling scheme (Tiger defensive linemen in the past have not lived up to their college billing in the NFL).

[BroncoWave]

your Heath Ledger avitar is pretty classless man.. Is that your version of humor?

Yep. :elefant:

[broncohead]

I don't think that McFadden will be a bust but I don't think that he will be as good as he is hyped up to be.

[omac]

Wow, KC got lucky there! I think they made the better choice than the Raiders. Dorsey could've really helped Oaklands swiss cheese run defense. McFadden also doesn't look as tough when running inside. Oakland should've chosen Dorsey.

[nj10]

YES! Stewart still on the board!!!

[RunYouOver]

Jets knew the Patriots wanted him, took him.

[Retired_Member_001]

We are getting closer to our pick. I wait anxiously.

Vernon Gholston will be a good player for the Jets.

[Bronco4ever]

LOL at Jets fans. They make the draft fun.

[Thnikkaman]

The guy who coached Herschel Walker at UGA and the guy that coached Bo Jackson at Auburn have both said that D-Mac is in a league with both of them. And I understand that everyone now feels obligated to bash him since he's a Raider now but if he had gone to Denver, yall would already be polishing his bust for Canton.

Nope, not at all. I agree that he has good upside, but lets see what he is doing in September.

[Retired_Member_001]

I don't think that McFadden will be a bust but I don't think that he will be as good as he is hyped up to be.

He will be a bit better than Reggie Bust but not much better.

[atwater27]

Trade up for Ellis!

[claymore]

We are getting closer to our pick. I wait anxiously.

Vernon Gholston will be a good player for the Jets.
He is nothing without D. Robertson IMO. :coffee:



:D

[nj10]

Stewart At # 12! Please!!!

[broncohead]

He will be a bit better than Reggie Bust but not much better.

I agree. Bush is explosive just like McFadden but I think that McFadden will be a better runner but not much. Bush can do a little of everything.

[Nick]

Jets knew the Patriots wanted him, took him.

Would have been ideal for either team at OLB

[nevcraw]

Need the Pats and Ravens to pass on Albert.

[yardog]

Here is our chance for Ellis.

[Nick]

He is nothing without D. Robertson IMO. :coffee:



:D

D. Robertson was not an ideal NT, they drafted him when where at a 4-3. They picked up a solid NT AND think he will play OLB

[CoachChaz]

McFadden can cactch the ball too, but what he lacks is escapability. He has great straight line speed, but wiggle? That he lacks

[nj10]

It seems unfair...traded into this pick or not...It should also be taken away from the Pats. They took away #31 and let them keep #7. Wow. I'm sure they're heartbroken.

[Nick]

McFadden can cactch the ball too, but what he lacks is escapability. He has great straight line speed, but wiggle? That he lacks

McFadden is going to be crushed by DJ! :elefant:

[broncohead]

Here is our chance for Ellis.

I would still trade up for him even though we have Robertson.

[Nick]

Saints (From NE) ellis DT USC

[Retired_Member_001]

Here is our chance for Ellis.

Why?

Marcus Thomas is a good prospect and Dewayne Robertson can be good if he remains healthy.

Why give up picks when we need more.

[atwater27]

Wonder what the Pats got...

[nevcraw]

Ellis to Saints?

[RunYouOver]

I think Pats will take a corner now...

[nj10]

OK...Pats traded out. Now what did they get for it?

[atwater27]

Why?

Marcus Thomas is a good prospect and Dewayne Robertson can be good if he remains healthy.

Why give up picks when we need more.

Ellis has this weird substance called cartilage in his knees.

[Retired_Member_001]

Saints should take Mendenhall or Stewart.

:laugh:

Jokes.

[nj10]

Ellis gone!

[atwater27]

Poop on a stick...

[Bronco4ever]

Ellis is gone-dee. Balls!

[honz]

Bye, bye Sedrick...

[Retired_Member_001]

Well we definitely aren't going DT in the 1st then.

[atwater27]

oops.

[BANJOPICKER1]

Sadness!:rolleyes:

[Hobe]

Saints should take Mendenhall or Stewart.

:laugh:

Jokes.

Glad they didn't!:beer:

[nevcraw]

Least it wasn't to another AFC west team..

[claymore]

Jags trade up..................

[nevcraw]

Jacksonville..DE?

[nj10]

Jax traded up...Good. They won't go RB!

[Nick]

Jags are trading UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
What?


What is the cost...

holllllllllllllllly smokes!

[Retired_Member_001]

Hey lex.

You said it would be hard to trade down. Two teams have traded down already.

[Bronco4ever]

You can see Denver on the screen now. My heart is pounding.

[Nick]

McKelvin?

Or

Another one of three CB busts? j/k

Wow they might have thought ellis was going to be there and gbot their deal done to early hahaha

[honz]

Jags trade up..................
Interesting...Ravens going for QB late in the first is what the experts are saying. I wonder what Jacksonville wants?

[Davii]

So who wants to go trolling onto the other teams forums after the draft so we can tell them how bad their picks were?

Nah. I'm not a Patriots fan. Thanks for the offer though.

[Retired_Member_001]

You can see Denver on the screen now. My heart is pounding.

Whenever I see our logo, my heart fills with passion.

For the sake of a proud winning franchise, please don't go Desean Jackson Shanny.

[Hoshdude7]

Nah. I'm not a Patriots fan. Thanks for the offer though.

Just so ya know my post was a joke. :elefant:

Just like all of my other posts...

[CoachChaz]

Notice they have Dallas listed in NE's spot

[BroncoWave]

Interesting...Ravens going for QB late in the first is what the experts are saying. I wonder what Jacksonville wants?

Derrick Harvey from UF probably.

[CoachChaz]

Interesting...Ravens going for QB late in the first is what the experts are saying. I wonder what Jacksonville wants?

Derrick Harvey

[claymore]

I bet the pats take Stewart. :mad:

[Bronco4ever]

For the sake of a proud winning franchise, please don't go Desean Jackson Shanny.

Amen to that.

[Hoshdude7]

I bet the pats take Stewart. :mad:

I will beat my Mom if that happens.

[Bronco4ever]

Notice they have Dallas listed in NE's spot

I saw that too. They fixed it right away.

[MOtorboat]

Hey lex.

You said it would be hard to trade down. Two teams have traded down already.

It depends on who people want Wook...I've said it all along that I think it will be hard to trade No. 12...

[Retired_Member_001]

I bet the pats take Stewart. :mad:

If so, I'd hate the Pats more than the Chargers.

I think it would be stupid if they went offense in the draft, they need defensive players.

[nevcraw]

1. Jags - DE?
2. Cinci - ?
3. Pats - MCcorner or rivers?
4. Broncos - Albert or RB

[honz]

Frickin Patriots will still get their CB and they get a 3rd round pick to boot...I hate them.

[BroncoWave]

I bet the pats take Stewart. :mad:

I hope they do. Then Shanny won't be able to make that mistake.

[Nick]

DE Harvey sounds very very plausible

[Retired_Member_001]

It depends on who people want Wook...I've said it all along that I think it will be hard to trade No. 12...

I' m just saying. The guy keeps ridiculing people who say "Let's trade down". He says it's very hard for teams to trade down. I'm just saying two have already been taken.

[MOtorboat]

DE Harvey sounds very very plausible

It's gotta be...what's taking so long?

[Retired_Member_001]

I hope the Bengals take Desean Jackson. Then Shanahan can't take him.

[nj10]

OK. fine with me

[Retired_Member_001]

Jags trying to make Peytato head's life even harder.

[honz]

I hope the Bengals take Desean Jackson. Then Shanahan can't take him.
Shanahan's not that stupid, is he?:eek:

[Nick]

Looks for Cincy to get their top corner.. Is it Jenkins or McKelvin?

[shank]

uh oh, this is looking like clady

[claymore]

Well Ryan and Harvey arent top ten IMO, so more talent for us.............

[nevcraw]

1. Jags - DE
2. Cinci - ?
3. Pats - MCcorner or rivers?
4. Broncos - Albert or RB

[CoachChaz]

Bengals should take Rivers, NE takes Cromartie, BUF takes WR

[Retired_Member_001]

Shanahan's not that stupid, is he?:eek:

The man took Willie Middlebrooks and George Foster in the first round.

He is THAT stupid.

[nj10]

I hope the Bengals take Desean Jackson. Then Shanahan can't take him.

If they were smart they'd go WR and give CJ what he wants. But it looks like they're going LB.

[Nick]

Keith Rivers to Cincy... Come on pats do not take Albert!

[claymore]

The man took Willie Middlebrooks and George Foster in the first round.

He is THAT stupid.
Thats in the past you SOB. :D

[honz]

The man took Willie Middlebrooks and George Foster in the first round.

He is THAT stupid.
You win.:salute:

[broncohead]

Clady = Foster

[nj10]

Their picking Rivers...Now hurry the hell up and pick him.

[atwater27]

The man took Willie Middlebrooks and George Foster in the first round.

He is THAT stupid.

Pipe down with the Shanahating.

[Retired_Member_001]

Thats in the past you SOB. :D

So what?

Untill we get a couple more good drafts from Shanny we can't say he is not stupid.

[Retired_Member_001]

They will go Keith Rivers.

[LRtagger]

Clady is falling right to us...this sucks

I hope we select Albert if we go Oline

[topscribe]

So what?

Untill we get a couple more good drafts from Shanny we can't say he is not stupid.

Wook, he could have ten more good drafts, and I believe you'd still think he's stupid. :coffee:

-----

[Retired_Member_001]

We are getting close to our pick.

It's exciting.

I told you the Bungholes would take Keith Rivers.

[Nick]

Wow, Jags swaped ones, and Baltimore just got both 3rds and fourth in a very deep draft. Ravens have been GREAT at a lot of drafts.

This could help them boost them over the hump.

[nevcraw]

3. Pats - ?????????? Corner or Albert
4. Broncos - Albert or RB

[Retired_Member_001]

Wook, he could have ten more good drafts, and I believe you'd still think he's stupid. :coffee:

-----

If he has ten more good drafts, drafts that make us Super Bowl Champions, I will call him a legend.

[Stargazer]

Denver can easily trad down a few spots with the way the draft is going if they want an OT/RB in the 1st.

[nj10]

We are getting close to our pick.

It's exciting.

I told you the Bungholes would take Keith Rivers.

Yeah...and I said it 3 posts before you did...and Nick 3 posts before me.

[Nature Boy]

With the 12th pick the Denver Broncos draft Jerod Mayo of Tennessee.

or

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie

[broncohead]

Denver can easily trad down a few spots with the way the draft is going if they want an OT/RB in the 1st.

I wouldn't go past 15. Hopefully we could grab a 3rd or 2nd rd. pick

[claymore]

With the 12th pick the Denver Broncos draft Jerod Mayo of Tennessee.

or

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie
I would cry.

[SmilinAssasSin27]

I hope it's Mayo or Phillips.

[BroncoWave]

With the 12th pick the Denver Broncos draft Jerod Mayo of Tennessee.

or

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie

No, and HELL no!

[Retired_Member_001]

With the 12th pick the Denver Broncos draft Jerod Mayo of Tennessee.

or

Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie

If that were to happen, I would throw up violently over my new laptop.

[RunYouOver]

I want to trade down with Detroit...we'd probably get a 4th and still get one of the 3 O-Lineman

[TimBuff10]

Well if they don't dig up another pothead from the Gators, it is looking like either Mendenhall, Clady, or Albert.

[Hobe]

Mayot has his shit together.
