Get it On! Rookie Draft Discussion Thread (1 Viewer)

I think Kiper and Mort are reading this thread.

If so... Mort's the Bomb, yo!Packers get the absolute dream fall for them.... Both Boss Bailey and E.J. Henderson. Henderson is more of a need, but, Bailey falling all the way to 29 is probably the biggest "value" pick of this draft so far.F
 
As a Bills fan, I'm happy with the McGahee pick. The Bills addressed all of their major needs in the offseason this year, and I'm confident that Donahoe and Modrak will find talent at DE/DT/WR/TE in the next couple rounds. Everybody thought the Saints were crazy when they drafted Deuce after the Ditka trade for Ricky Williams. Well, that eventually landed them 2 1st round picks. The Bills are smart enough to plan for the future, and took the proverbial Best Player Available with a gift pick they got from Atlanta for Price.If they had not franchised Price, they would not have even had the 23rd pick in the draft!When McGahee gets healthy, teams with a need at RB will be lining up for Henry or McGahee next offseason. This pick has more upside than anyone else available in the draft, IMO, and I think it's worth the gamble.There is still the rest of the draft and the June 1st veteran cuts for the Bills to fill needs.

Gotta love the fans of other teams who don't like our pick. If it makes the Bills fans happy, then the GM did a good job.
 
As a Terps fan and a Raiders fan, I'm starting to get excited at the possibility of E.J. Henderson in the silver & black next year. :)

 
how about boss finally going here. you can teach a guy how to tackle.

wouldn't you think that the guys coaching him in college would have already tried that "teach him to tackle" technique?EJ is the better LB

O don't get me wrong I love the pick the Bills made it means they won't come close to the AFC East title this year

Note to all non-KCers, never believe anything in that GM Peterson says in an interview... :)

I'm not a Bills fan, but I can see this pick ( in hindsight, of course :) ). Bills have already made a lot of moves in the offseason and, ironicallly, to take a risk on mcgahee, a team has to be able to live without him.

 
Good call.

Thanks - I picked the first 5 correctly (puts me 2 ahead of Kiper) and the last 3, but bombed in the middle of the round.Crazy draft this year! One of the LBs will go here - Boss is the better value I think.
 
John Butler's spirit is with the Chargers this draft. (other thread)Can't believe the guys that have dropped to us at the 30th. I really just hope they don't screw it up and pass on Steinbach.

Agreed, steinbach would be a steal at 30

I would have picked Steinbach at #15. Shows you what I know.

Yeah, the only thing the coaches teach at Georgia is how to accept money or how to get caught with weed... :)
 
I'm getting tired of waiting on picks so we can finish interviews that are mostly generalized boring comments....SHOW ME THE PICKS!!!!ps...Nick Barnett? surprised me there

 
With four picks to go, and some time on the clock, I figure it might be worth discussing value of existing players based on the draft picks so far. Some offensive players that come to mind:I think Detroit and Texans both helped out there QBs by grabbing the top two WRs.I think questions are now raised about Holmes and Henry.Kordell needs to look over his shoulder if he screws up...

 
Does anyone doubt that the Chargers are :rotflmao: ? Bailey to replace Seau? Could it happen?

S. Davis moves up with the addition of Gross.
 
Bailey or Henderson to the Raiders as an eventual replacement for Romanowski.Barton, Harris and either rookie.
