"As a nation, I think we're ready for a black president. I think we are. But I wouldn't want to be that guy. It'd be TOO HOT!!! There's too many crazy people out there, you'd never know when somebody was looking to take you out. But I'd have a plan. I'd appoint a Mexican vice president. Who's gonna shoot me now!!??!!" so his running mate will be Bill Richardson? wow! Dave is good.

He's from the Orlando, Florida area, I meet him at a friend's wedding several years ago, at the time he was just starting off with the Cheifs. He seemed very nice, and was huge then, he was the only one not in a suit, I think he had a hard time finding one to fit those pipes.

Shenanigans

it's not one acute gassing, it's chronic gassing. If family A is only going one place all year, and takes the bus the rest of the year that is understandable, however that 20 dollar difference each week,(driving to work et cetera) over the course of the year will take a toll from their expendable money. and with many Americans living paycheck to paycheck and not seeing an increase in wages. The price of Gas does make a difference. Your finally statement pretty much says it all, you're right, you shouldn't be making travel plans. over the last ten years gas has gone from less than a dollar to 4. But have we seen wages follow this trend?

giving him a shot would mean that 1) we don't feel that Johnson, Strout, Williams and McCargo can handle the DT position 2) if we kept 5 DT active than that's one less Special teamer we would have active. I think that Booger is near the very end of his career, 3 years ago was one thing, today is another. I feel that we could get better play out of the 4 mentioned above. Also why take a spot of a player that could play special teams, we always have a strong Special team unit, we need to keep it this way. I'd rather keep a gunner like John Wendling active over a rotational guy like Booger.

safety

did I read somewhere that this is Karl Malone's kid?

Mario Manningham is a punk. Doucet would be a better choice, he's much more physical and working in the slot he is quick not fast. Roy Schuening-the guard could be made into a Center, he is a very smart player, many had him as the top guard (if albert was a tackle) also Zuttah Josh Barrett could be a special team ace with his size and speed and moved to will backer, where he could be a dime LB. Brad Cottam is still there, I feel he will be the best TE of this draft, he runs the seam very well, and at 6'8" and 270 pounds what LB or DB could keep him from doing it (he runs a sub 4.7 40) great teams are built on day two

say what you may, that would be a great draft. McKelvin and McGee would combine to be our McCorners. both are great returners, if either gets an Int we can expect great things. In the league were more and more teams are trying to spread defenses out, having 4 good corners is very important. James and greer are pretty good too. Jordy Nelson is already a fan fav here, having never played a single play in Buffalo, nor even being drafted by Buffalo yet. Davis, while I'd rather have Cottam, he has more natural talent than any other TE in this draft. He would hopefully reach his potential in Buffalo. I'd expect between 300 and 600 yards a year from him. Adibi, wow a lot of people have him going in the 2nd round. With Crowell coming off of an injury and in his last year of his contract this would make sense. and Johnson, good small school athlete we need depth at DE, he provides it.

John Wendling, starting FS or SS if they move Whitner to FS

I don't believe that the Ravens will trade down and if they do, so be it. I think John McCargo will be everything that Marv thought he was drafting a few years ago. If Matt Ryan is not there the Ravens will draft an OT (Clady) to one day replace Ogden, I am not sure they are sold on Gaither.

Based on the newest NFL network mock first 10 picks: 1-Leodis McKelvin-CB-everything you want in a CB. With McGee, Greer, and James adding McKelvin would give us one of the best dime packages in the league. 2-Limas Sweed-WR-I think if buffalo picks a WR in the first round it will open the flood gates on WR, but since the 11th pick was a CB I think it will open the gates on CB leaving several WRs in the 2nd round. another option may be Hardy, but his off the field issues will scare buffalo. If Hardy and Sweed are not there I wouldn't be upset reaching for Nelson here. better in the 2nd round to reach than the first. 3-Brad Cottam-TE-St 6'8" 270 pounds you would think he is a blocking TE, but running a 4.68 forty proves he can open the middle. While the film on him is not really availible, what I've heard is he is a cross between Witten and Ben Utecht, not bad at all. 4a-Owen Schmitt-FB-has the ability to pound the middle as a short yardage specialist, but he'll earn his paycheck blocking and catching swing passes. 4b-Marcus Howard-OLB/DE/ST-Great athlete, may be used as a Pass rushing specialist, but will earn his pay on Special teams 5- Paul Hubbard-WR and Special teams-could be another red zone option but his size and speed could make him very good as a special team gunner. 6-Jamey Richard-center-he has potential, he played for the Bulls, he at least knows the city. 7-Malik Jackson-LB/ST-special teams, Haggens 4 game and Stamer's leaving makes this important 7b-Marcus Griffin-for depth, safety and special teams-impressive interview on Sirius, he seems to want to play special teams 7c-Kevin O'Connell-QB-Practice squad material-looks the part....at very least

Miami-Jake Long, chris long would be a LB in the 3-4, and Gholston would be a better option if they decided on a LB. While Jake isn't in the same league as a joe Thomas he'll remind tuna of Jumbo elliot St Louis-Chris Long, fits well in Hasletts attacking defense Atlanta-Glenn Dorsey. interior defense needs help. QB could be addressed in the 2nd..they have 3 picks there. Oakland-Darren McFadden, they need a big named draft pick KC-Matt Ryan, they need a QB, Brodie was 0-6 last year. Jets-Vernon Gholston easy Pats-Ryan Clady...one may wonder why, but they lost the super bowl because they couldn't provide enough protection. Baltimore-Jeff Otah, Odgen is near retirement and they still need a RT. they didn't invest that much into McGahee without addressing the line. Cinci- Sed Ellis interior defense needs something NO Roger-cromartie-fills need and coaches get the hottest corner on the market Buffalo-would be happy with McKelvin or Harvey here, I see reasons to get either. I would be content with a first day like this McKelvin Nelson (unless someone falls into the 2nd or we move into the 1st again) Top DE or TE

I find it funny that there are so many here that feel that Dallas wants that 11th pick that bad. I understand that they love McFadden. Several teams do, but he will not make it to 11, also two first rounders are far too much to give up to go 11 spots higher. Dallas could move into the top ten where McFadden will be taken. plus I am really starting to like Harvey the DE from Florida. At 11 we should draft him. 1-Harvey-the Giants beat the Pats with pressure. Schobel, Kelsey, Denney and Harvey will put pressure on QBs all year. 1b/2 (I think we trade up to get Devin Thomas, 2nd this year and a 2nd next, insures we get a WR we like) Devin Thomas 3 Charles Godfrey-if there, would be an instant upgrade to the dime package. has the size and speed to handle big WRs 4-TE-lots of depth in the TE draft, but no one so special to use a first day pick, when it is all said and done I think 3 TEs will be drafted on day one. 5-interior OL...Center or Guard...not to start, the OL last year was much improved and why mess with it. more depth, better depth is always good. 6-another WR, again the depth in this draft is strong at WR, we will be amazed at the names in the 6th 7-another DL that may have fallen

he is one of those tweeners, they think he can be a safety or Corner. I like the speed, the tackling ability and size. he still is a bit of a project. but he is from the same program that gave the colts the Defensive player of the year. 3rd would be a dream come true. he would push Youboty out the door. I think Godfrey could start in time but as a rookie be an upgrade at the Dime.

pittman does little for me, If given the option of trading that 2nd and a future 3rd rounder for Turner or drafting Pittman I don't think there is any question who I'd pick. We need a back that attacks would be tacklers, makes them feel the sting of a cold December game in Buffalo, not one that can be taken down with a single tackler. I think that is why Henry had a few good years here. he was willing to attack. not sure where he was drafted in that mock but a WR that i am really starting to like, is Mike Walker out of UCF, I didn't think he was that fast, but he ran a 4.35 and at 6'2" and 210 he has the size to be a #2, he was very productive in college, even without much of a QB.

another player I really like in the 4th, maybe the 6th is Mike Walker out of UCF, at 6'2" 208, his only knock was his speed, but then at the combines he ran a 4.35 40. He was UCFs only real threat this past year, with Moffett throwing him the ball (who let me say might have the worse throwing motion ever) he still had over 1000 yards recieving.

I like patrick Willis, but I think we take Lynch if he is still there. Marv has said you need a running game and to be able to stop the run, unless the plan is to really suck this year and get mcfadden next year. But Lynch in the first and then in the 2nd address the LB position. Syler, Beason, Poz or Timmons, maybe harris will be there, and if all five are gone then draft Tank Tyler if he's still on the board, but I think Poz falls, issues about injuries could make him slip a little. In the third get California's Brandon Mebane, a DT made for the cover 2, stout against the run and athletic, I think Tripplett unless he gets into the 310 area maybe released, McCargo is a better athlete and Williams is better against the run. Mebane is 6'1" 310 and is consider a very good run stopping nt/dt. and he has I high motor. then a player that is trully a playmaker, but had a bad combine CB Daymeion Hughes, he would be a good 4th CB in the cover two, he isn't going to be a man to man guy, but he is a first round talent without great foot speed. For those taking note, yeah 3 Cal players day one. 1-Lynch 2-Poz 3-Mebane 3b-Hughes

I would, only because he would have to prove himself to JP instead of JP proving himself to Moulds, he really didn't burn any bridges. I would request him to lose weight, get to about 205, he looks about 10 pounds overweight. Maybe he and Price will regain some of their form this way

gosh, I feel like a tool, but I was calling for starks like a month ago, so I am in total agreement. he can play nose and is explosive. We can not find that talent in the 3rd round, and once again, we can try to put clauses in his contract, that does not allow the Titans to match (if it's still legal, if I recall they are trying to put a stop to it)

that is the punishment for lies!!! How could you James Cameron!?!?!? we are all jews again...oh vay

I think its something In the water in Miami, my EX wife is from Miami...went to high school with McGahee. (she was a senior when he was a freshman, and playing varsity, another sidenote, he went to a really nice upscale Miami Springs high school, he is not from the ghetto)

my deal with Brick last year was that. Typically rookies struggle at LT, and he would have to start his career at RT, the problem is he doesn't have the size to play RT, his playing weight during the season was around 275. at 275 he would have been an average sized lineman in 86. That is why i was happy to see him drafted by anyone other than Buffalo. Don't tell me about McNeill, I agree he had a great rookie year, but he at least he had the size if anything prior to being drafted.

I am going to keep saying this, but if Willis ends up in Buffalo he is the Defensive Rookie of the year....if you look at what Fletcher did, and take in consideration the physical difference Willis could lead the league in tackles his rookie year. He's faster, taller (which means more than most think...about 6 inches taller) with his long arms he is able to keep seperation from would be blockers and he attacks!! instead of letting the ball carrier come to him. a healthy Spikes and Crowell with Willis, and I will argue that we have the best 4-3 (defense) LBers in the league. Here is my hope that Okoye goes to Atl, and Branch to Miami so there is no other choice and no one can say marv screwed up. I still think we should out bid and give up a 3rd for Randy Starks

Where did Dick coach Thomas Jones?
