Can we get Marcus McNeil? And then draft an O-Lineman?

They wanted two 2nds for a WR one DUI away from a year suspension....for a decent LT, they'll want a first, a third and every coach's first born child.

Can we draft Chucky Gruden?

I do. A WR that can beat 1 on 1 coverage and make a play on the ball is definitely needed.

Our receivers are good enough that with time to get into their routes Cutler can find them. Right now;

OL priority >>>>>>> WR priority

Agreed totally. I think the only exception would be if one of the big 4 falls to us in the latter half of the first round and there aren't any o-lineman worth the pick.

But in that case, we'd better damn well come away with two o-lineman in the 2nd and 3rd rounds....

The best part about this is the OT class is very weak.

We will probably take a 2nd round prospect at #20.

I have this bad feeling that JA won't give up on Chris Williams or especially Omiyele yet. But I'd gladly take help at G or C and then hope like hell that Adam Webb takes the RT spot.

HeavyLeggedWaistBender · 10-04-2010, 05:22 PM

Yeah thats what Im thinkin. But we could get lucky in that teams wont pick any early because its a weak class then the top guy falls to us. But we are so not going LT in the first, cmon. Even though its our biggest need we arent scrappin CW.

Itll be a WR or a DT.

MidwayMonster31 · 10-04-2010, 11:14 PM

The OT class is weak in the sense that there's no star power/ franchise blindside protector. There should be enough guys who can play right tackle. The interior line is very strong, especially if Wisnewski and Brewster declare. The problem I see is if Angelo is still around, he's not going to pull the trigger, instead he will try and sign someone who rode the bench somewhere else.

Totally agree. A go-to #1 WR is still a big need.

HeavyLeggedWaistBender · 10-05-2010, 09:17 PM

Like oh, Idk, Randy Moss? If he ends up going to Minne for anything less than a 2nd, Ill puke in a rubber glove and send it to JA.

Gay Ork Wang · 10-06-2010, 06:49 AM

i dont want Moss

Same. I don't think he would have been able to learn this offense quickly enough to have been useful this year.

Although it sucks that he's back in the division....

HeavyLeggedWaistBender · 10-06-2010, 11:33 AM

Yeah, youre right guys. Dodged a huge bullet there...

Monomach · 10-06-2010, 04:47 PM

So we have to play Moss twice this year. That's going to leave a mark.

Wavy77 · 10-08-2010, 04:16 AM

I don't like the first round offensive linemen in this draft, and therefore I'd prefer to go that route in the second or third round.

In the first I like Stephen Paea. Strong DT with a high motor...not a fantastic pass rusher, but everything else is pretty much in place. Tommie Harris won't be there next year, and even though Anthony Adams and Matt Toeaina aren't too shabby they're not difference makers.

Gay Ork Wang · 10-08-2010, 12:34 PM

just sign Matt Light and trade for McNeill?

Eh, Matt Light hasn't been great for a few years. And if we trade for someone, I'd go for Mankins first. Plug him in at LG, draft a new center with a top 3 round pick, and hope that Chris Williams improves with a pro bowl G next to him.

Gay Ork Wang · 10-08-2010, 01:28 PM

i meant Mankins.

While totally unrealistic, that would be pretty sweet if we got Mankins and McNeil then used our highest remaining draft pick on a C.

We will not do that however. With our top 3 picks, we'll draft an undersized WR, a small school defensive lineman and an in the box SS then draft a late round, uber-raw developmental o-lineman.

I really want a new GM/coach. I'm just a little afraid we'll get some 3-4 loving guy in one of those spots and with so many teams going that way, the players needed to make it work won't be easily found and it'll be another 5 years of ****.

Gay Ork Wang · 10-08-2010, 01:38 PM

we drafted 1 OL Player in with our 1-3 Rounders in the last 7 years.

Make me GM for draft day and I'd probably go o-line with at least two of our first 3 picks.

Grab a RT like Love or Carimi or Castonzo in the first round, then a G/C in the 2nd or 3rd depending on where the value is at......sigh.

There's also that thing called a salary cap.

Eh, we wouldn't be close yet. I saw an article earlier this year about where the teams would be if there were still a cap and the only teams really even close were the Cowboys and Redskins. Plus the Jets have thrown big money at 3 players now with David Harris yet to sign....

We wouldn't be as close as those teams yet.
