BobChalmers Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Any thoughts? Also is there any precedent on whether a rookie TE or rookie C would be more apt to succeed right away? Rookie Centers - hands down. The league is full of late-first/early-second round centers who came in and succeeded right away. Heck - we need look no further than the Jets - but he's not unique. Rookie TE's aren't just late bloomers - they've also been frequent busts. Hope for Fine to work out and/or get a FA TE. Round 1: Brown or another top 3 DE trade back up into the bottom of round 1 and get the best Center in the draft - whoever that is this year, after combine. Draft Guard depth after that. Then take late round fliers on a SS, LB, and DT. Re-sign Crowell, and return a healthy DiGi and we're fine at LB Bring in decent (not likely stars) FA's at TE and DE (for depth). Cut Kelsay or at least make him take a pay cut to avoid it, to pay for Crowell and Peters' extentions. How hard is that? Championship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Championship! i think the only DE that I'd go for at our pick would be Brown or Orapko. The other guys don't excite me to much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
