It's all speculation. The name the Rams as a possible landing place for McNabb because of their QB isutation, but they also say they don't think McNabb will want to go to a 1-15 team. Why the Rams as listed as the team in the header I don't know. Also in the article they state that no one knows where he will go. The name the Bills, Browns, Panthers, Jaquars and Redskins as possibilities as well

sure, no problem St. Louis Rams Record: 1-15 Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska Nobody questions that the top need for the Rams is a quarterback. But unless St. Louis trades down -- an extremely difficult proposition on multiple levels -- it shouldn't take a quarterback with its first pick. Suh is maybe the most dominating defensive tackle I've seen in 32 years of doing this. He can be effective immediately for the Rams. Detroit Lions Record: 2-14 Gerald McCoy*, DT, Oklahoma Getting McCoy both fills a big need for the Lions and is an extraordinarily good consolation prize for any team unable to get Suh. McCoy makes his living in opponents' backfields and is such a talent he could have landed in this position last year had he declared as a redshirt sophomore. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Record: 3-13 Eric Berry*, S, Tennessee This is very early for a safety to go off the board, but Berry is that kind of talent. A player compared often (not unfairly) to Ed Reed, Berry is a difference-making safety headed to a league that has seen those types (Reed, Troy Polamalu, Bob Sanders) become more and more notable in recent years. Washington Redskins Record: 4-12 Sam Bradford*, QB, Oklahoma Mike Shanahan and the Redskins can get a quarterback here who might have been the top player taken had he opted to come out last year. The Redskins need to find their franchise quarterback, and when healthy, Bradford is an exceptionally accurate passer with an underrated arm. Shanahan also hit on his last QB selection, when he drafted Jay Cutler in Denver. Kansas City Chiefs Record: 4-12 Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State I think the Chiefs could use help at safety as well, but Berry likely won't fall this far, and they'd be reaching on either of the two other safeties with first-round grades. Okung could solve two problems, making him a good value. He also could step in at LT and allow the Chiefs to move Brandon Albert to the right side. A pick that can pay immediate dividends for the Chiefs. Seattle Seahawks Record: 5-11 Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech Many in Seattle will view the offensive line as a greater need, but Morgan fills another huge hole for a team that simply couldn't get to the quarterback in 2009. He represents great value because he can rush the passer, is productive against the run and can even drop back -- a versatile talent. Pete Carroll knows defense and should love what Morgan can offer. Cleveland Browns Record: 5-11 Joe Haden*, CB, Florida I'm not convinced the Browns will be willing to draft a quarterback simply because the position is unsettled. In Haden, they can't go wrong with by far the top CB on the board, a player they can plug in from day one. A deft cover corner and great tackler, Haden is the complete package. Oakland Raiders Record: 5-11 Anthony Davis*, OT, Rutgers Davis might not be the most complete tackle in the first round, but he is the most naturally gifted and should get better. Great feet, ideal size and he has the ability to maul defenders in the run game. After a whiff in the first round last year, the Raiders should address a big need here. Buffalo Bills Record: 6-10 Jimmy Clausen*, QB, Notre Dame People will debate Clausen's merits long after he shakes the commissioner's hand, but he has continued to improve, has showed toughness, has an NFL arm and, perhaps most importantly, has experience under center in a pro-style offense. That was a key for Matthew Stafford and Mark Sanchez, and is a huge consideration for scouts. Denver Broncos (from Chicago) Record: 7-9 Dez Bryant*, WR, Oklahoma State In all likelihood, Brandon Marshall is headed elsewhere, so the Broncos will attempt to fill the void with the best deep threat in the draft. Bryant has great size and was unstoppable in the Big 12. He represents an immediate weapon in the passing game. Jacksonville Jaguars Record: 7-9 Jason Pierre-Paul*, DE, South Florida This is no place to draft a guy like Tim Tebow just to sell tickets. Pierre-Paul is local enough and could be the Mario Williams of this draft class, a raw talent but one with remarkable athleticism and an incredible burst off the line. Could be a terror for QBs in the future. Miami Dolphins Record:7-9 Rolando McClain*, LB, Alabama A potential home run for Miami, which needs an inside linebacker and could get the best one in the whole draft after the top 10. The Dolphins also could go after Bryant if he were to fall to them here. San Francisco 49ers Record: 8-8 Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma I consider the right tackle position a big need for the 49ers, and getting Williams here should strengthen them immediately both in the run game and as they look to further develop a potentially dangerous passing game with Michael Crabtree and Vernon Davis. Seattle Seahawks (from Denver) Record: 5-11 C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson He's not an offensive lineman, but Spiller could be a Reggie Bush-like option for the Seahawks. For a coach uniquely familiar with what Bush can do, Spiller is a missing home run threat in the run game, a good receiver and a valuable returner. He has elite speed. New York Giants Record: 8-8 Carlos Dunlap*, DE, Florida This is a high-value pick for the Giants, whose defensive line depth I feel has been overstated. There are makeup questions surrounding Dunlap, but for much of this past season, he was considered the premier pass-rusher in the college game. He has the potential to be like Jevon Kearse. San Francisco 49ers (from Carolina) Record: 8-8 Earl Thomas*, S, Texas The 49ers need help in pass coverage, and Thomas fits because he's a great value here, whereas reaching for a CB at No. 16 wouldn't represent good value at all. Thomas isn't a huge guy but can cover a tremendous amount of real estate. Tennessee Titans Record: 8-8 Everson Griffen*, DE, USC Pierre-Paul likely won't fall this far, so the Titans get a gifted underclassman who looked like a pro coming out of high school and now is living up to his potential. He already has an NFL frame, and when Griffen is consistent, he's a strong pass-rusher. Pittsburgh Steelers Record: 9-7 Bryan Bulaga*, OT, Iowa Pittsburgh clearly needs help up front if it wants to return to power running and protecting the quarterback, and Bulaga is an emerging tackle with great feet from a pro-style system. The Steelers will improve immediately, and he wears the black and gold well already. Atlanta Falcons Record: 9-7 Sergio Kindle, OLB, Texas The Falcons could use some help at OLB, and Kindle's continued improvement throughout the season is appealing. He's not quite in the class of Brian Orakpo, but he is a similar type of player and has proved to be very physical. Houston Texans Record: 9-7 Brian Price*, DT, UCLA Price is hidden away a bit in such a deep class of defensive linemen, but he's a disruptive force who utilizes great leverage. He should add depth to an improving defense. Cincinnati Bengals Record: 10-6 Aaron Hernandez*, TE, Florida They need to give Carson Palmer options in the passing game aside from who already is there, and Hernandez is the most athletic TE available, a guy with surprising run-after-catch ability. The favorite target of Tebow at Florida, he could offer immediate help in the passing game. New England Patriots Record: 10-6 Ricky Sapp, OLB, Clemson The Patriots clearly need help when it comes to getting to opposing quarterbacks, and Sapp is an ideal fit on the edge in the 3-4. He's the kind of athlete who can adjust to being upright and flat-out knows how to get to the quarterback. Green Bay Packers Record: 11-5 Taylor Mays, S, USC If you had told Green Bay in August that it could get Mays at No. 23 overall, the Packers would have been thrilled. An extraordinary athlete, Mays might have suffered against expectations, but the Pack hit a home run with Clay Matthews Jr. out of USC last year, and Mays both fills a need and has great potential. Philadelphia Eagles Record: 11-5 Navorro Bowman*, OLB, Penn State The Eagles need an athletic OLB, and they get a lot of value by landing Bowman here. Bowman lacks size, but any parsing on measurables can't overcome his great play on film. Could end up as the best at his position in this class. Baltimore Ravens Record: 9-7 Jermaine Gresham*, TE, Oklahoma Gresham is so good that while he sat out his junior year, I left him on the Big Board the whole time. Now healthy, he's a great find this late in the first round and a perfect target for Joe Flacco as an heir to Todd Heap. At a hair over 6-6 and 262 pounds, he's the total package at TE. Arizona Cardinals Record: 10-6 Dan Williams, DT, Tennessee I see this position as the second-biggest need for the Cardinals, and Williams is a great value here. Tremendously strong in the lower body, he is a disruptive force against the run. Dallas Cowboys Record: 11-5 Bruce Campbell*, OT, Maryland Jerry Jones knows he needs to address the tackle position after the debacle he witnessed against Minnesota in the divisional round of the playoffs, and Campbell, while still learning, is a tremendous talent at this position. San Diego Chargers Record: 13-3 Jonathan Dwyer*, RB, Georgia Tech With the possible departure of LaDainian Tomlinson on the horizon, Dwyer represents the player who can handle 20-plus carries in an offense that already has a great speed back in Darren Sproles. Dwyer has ideal size and shows explosiveness. New York Jets Record: 9-7 Golden Tate*, WR, Notre Dame The Jets must give Mark Sanchez some weapons in the passing game, and while Tate has question marks on his ability to separate, he is more physical than many think and has always been a playmaker. In the mold of Laveranues Coles. Minnesota Vikings Record: 12-4 Patrick Robinson, CB, Florida State Need meets value here. Robinson is the second-best corner in the draft, and Minnesota should be happy to grab him this late. Robinson has the chance to step in and contribute. New Orleans Saints Record: 13-3 Jared Odrick, DT, Penn State Odrick is an ideal pick here for the Saints, who are looking to add stability to the rush defense. His presence helped standout LBs Bowman and Sean Lee run free, and the Saints will ask for the same. Indianapolis Colts Record: 14-2 Brandon Graham, DE, Michigan Graham was a one-man show for the Wolverines, leading the nation in tackles for loss. Always in the backfield, he's a guy who can learn under master pass-rushers in Indy and build on the tradition.

Just say NO to drafting a 1st rd QB!!!!
BeastMode54 replied to Poeticlaw's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I too think we need a QB, but I wouldn't be all that upset if we had Trent for one more year. When you look at a team like the Jets, they built from the lines, which is what teams must do to win games. We all thought Trent would be a decent QB after starting 4-0 a year ago, but he got sacked WAAAAY too many times and had a horrible line, so he regressed. I don't want to bring a young QB in here to get shell shocked after a year or two. Build from the Lines and THEN get a QB. The Jets have Mangold, Ferguson, Moore, Woody, and Faneca. All in place before this year. They traded for Jenkins and Pace. THEN they got the QB they needed. We need to draft from the lines out. It's a must. -
A picture of Ralph Wilson in adult diapers that reads, Chan Gailey...a choice I'm comfortable with, just like my Depends
-
I can't stand Ralph Wilson. If this is true, this is unbelievable. All I want is a Bills playoff game, forget Superbowl right now. Marty is great at doing that. What a horrible job by Wilson. Isn't the GM supposed to make the decision. His meddling is unparalled other than in Oakland. I can't stand him. What is he trying to do?

BeastMode54 replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
after my last topic post I said I was done, but it's kinda funny how itchy the mods are getting. CHAIN GAILEY WILL BE OUR COACH. THere, that should do it, this one will be closed in no time. Hey mods, we're just as pissed as you. Don't take it out on us -
I don't want to see articles about how he should have been the Chiefs coach, I don't care what he did in Dallas, I don't care what he did in Miami. Gailey is just an example of a desperate, embarassing franchise, and this will be my last post for a LONG time if he gets hired. I'm tired, I'm sick of this, and I'm almost done. We suck! There is a reason no one even wants to interview, let alone take the job, Why not make Marshawn the coach, at least he's got a couple $20's saved up to pay for some players
-
Any sh-tty journalist can make any candidate look viable. We are a joke. We went from Shanny, to Cowher, to Gruden, to Frazier, to Rivera, to Grimm, to SHotty, to Harbaugh, and it looks like we'll settle with a guy who was last HC in the 90's and was for the majority of the time a college coach and a coach in the World League. For all those who say he "built" something in Dallas, look at the talent around him. We won't have it. I'm done.

Mort Twitter Regarding Frazier
BeastMode54 replied to LABills08's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So was Bill Walsh a bad coach, Marv Levy in the 90's, Parcells with the Giants? Your argument is retarded. Yes, talent obviously helps a HC, but where do you draw the line. You need a coach to direct the talent. -
Watching the Jets just reinforces again that teams need to build from the lines. Their o-line is dominant
-
I understand that the Senior Bowl and other pre combine events will be held with most all teams having their coaching staff in place. We need a HC to get in here soon to start planning for the season next year. I know that we interviewed Frazier and might interview Grimm, but they are both still in the playoffs. People are getting antsy and want a decision made soon. My question is, should we start interviewing lesser candidates who might be available now, just to fill the void? If we want Frazier, shouldn't we wait until after his season with the Vikings is over? I know I want someone soon as well, but I would rather not take someone just to take him. Have their been other situations where this has occurred to teams, where they had their guy in mind and had to sit and wait until his team finished their playoff run?

Jared Odrick? I'd throw up -
I KNOW!!! That's unfortunately why I don't think it will happen. The San Diego connection gives me hope, but I think SD will make every effort ro re-sign him. If we could though, I would be more than thrilled
-
I think signing McNeil would be HUGE!!!

He's been noted to be able to play in any system. If I'm not wrong, he plays in the 3-4 now at Alabama
