  1. you forgot QB
  2. no way. there's about 4-5 top notch OT's, and any one of them will be a good #9 pick. it's not like EVERYONE before us will take a tackle and pass on Suh, McCoy, Berry, Bradford & Clausen. and if they do, we snag Bradford, no Berry.
  3. I know, I think you're correct on both points. He wont fall far, and he'd be kind of a "waste of talent" in a 3-4, unless maybe he played a 3-4 end. just some wishful thinking there...
  4. good, maybe Suh will fall to #9
  5. sounds better than giving up draft picks. We'd have at QB- Campbell, Fitz (known solid #2), Brohm (with possible upside for future) Could live w/ that for yr or 2
  6. good article. this suggests they might go w/ a 3-4 over, (i think it is), where NT plays 1-gap, and use Williams. Defensive tackle Kyle Williams is a 305-pounder who is smaller than the prototypical nose tackle in the 3-4 defense. Gailey suggest the coaches can adjust the scheme to allow for Williams' talent. would take the pressure off getting a starting "classic" NT. Williams/Harvey? also sounds like LYnch is staying put.
  7. but there are about 5 early-mid 1st-rnd projected tackles, so in this case seems to me you could take the best one of those remaining at #9 and it'd be a good pick. This yr, the draft is top-heavy with our position of need, so i think you go w/ that strategy for our 1st rnd pick. later on, pick the best player avail
  8. pants on the ground... pants on the ground...
  9. here's Lonnie Harvey on adversity. nothing to do w/ on-field performance, of course, but seems like a stand-up dude
  10. wow, heavy story. Im rootin for him. Hope he can stay healthy, and if not be productive starter, a good #2 guy
  11. keep in mind we have Lonnie Harvey at NT. prob not a starter, but MAYBE a bkup. possibly him and Williams could take care of the depth at NT.
  12. think about it, he's not a FA. It would be a trade, so he prob wouldn't be in buffalo until well after the news broke. You think Eagles managmnt will tell him, "Hey Donovan, go check out Buffalo and see if ya wanna play there next few years.."
  13. According to my source, an orange cone has been sighted at the Buffalo airport...
  14. check flight records...
  15. If anyone's interested, this is happening at state level here in Colorado... http://www.denverpost.com/search/ci_14243392 A state lawmaker wants high schools with American Indian mascots to get approval to continue using them from a state board. Maybe the Redskins could take a page out of this HS's book: Arapahoe High School in Littleton kept its team name but 17 years ago developed a relationship with the Arapaho Nation on the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming. In addition to the redesigned logo, the school gym in 1995 was renamed in honor of an Arapaho elder, according to information on the school's website. The students and the tribe annually participate in a ceremony renewing their relationship. "It's a very positive thing," Williams said. and this is downright funny (on UNC's part): At Eaton High School, home of the Reds, also known as the Fightin' Reds, the mascot features an Indian with a misshapen nose, eagle feather and loincloth. The name made national news in 2002 when a multiracial intramural team at the University of Northern Colorado lampooned it. The UNC crew called its team the Fightin' Whities, which featured a caricature of a middle-aged white guy with the phrase "Everthang's gonna be all white!"
  16. there needs to be more than 7 people involved in this suit. The term "redskins" is now, and always has been, a derogatory and offensive term, according to a friend-of-the-court brief filed by the National Congress of American Indians and other major native American tribes and groups. so maybe the National Congress of American Indians should weight into this, rather than just 7 individuals.
  17. think he's 1/2. My take on all that- simple solution- let Indians vote on it. if majority is offended, change the name. but wouldn't surprise me if many didn't really give a crap.
  18. Eva Longoria pictches for the Rockies? dam, I should really hit more games!
  19. crazy to take him when there's no quarterback to throw to him, no tackles to protect that quartback, and no NT to stop the other team from hoggin the ball
  20. tradition. Washington Warriors sounds pretty good. Keep the logo.
  21. cmon, the guy can do a backflip! here's more Cody athleticism in action:
  22. except that NT is the one & only position where you can bend the rules a little. yes a little, but not 50lbs.
  23. There will be a wing shortage in Buffalo if Mt Cody's drafted. Seriously tho, if he can manage weight and someone can spell him (Lonny Harvey?), he'll be good.
  24. Gerhart would be cool!
