tongue-tied lightning Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writ...art1/index.html i'm hoping for some defence for my 49ers at the 11th pick the possible Jet & Redskin trade is interesting. Potis for Vilma not sold on the Browns taking Brady Quinn any thoughts ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Some have Jarrett from USC falling all the way to #31 for the Bears. I thought this guy was a stud. What's the deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quarter23cd Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 not sold on the Browns taking Brady QuinnThey might take him, but I'm not sold on the idea that he will be their savior. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IATTBYB Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 The real question is whether Millen has the balls to draft his fourth WR in the past five years with the #2 pick by taking C. Johnson out of GT. If he does, I officially become a Bears fan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Yeah, if the Lions pick Johnson, they'll only be doing so to turn around and trade him. Didn't they just sign two other wide receivers in the last week? edit: Yup, they did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied lightning Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 I saw some film of Joe Thomas, and this guy is a beast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parisisstale Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Why would the Jets trade their player on defense for Portis when they just traded for Thomas Jones? They wouldn't, it's a silly blog rumor. I'm not sold on Quinn or Russell, which is why anyone who passes on Calvin Johnson (yes, even the Lions), is making a huge mistake. He's a once in a lifetime player. If the Lions won't take Johnson, they should be able to trade down a few spots. Jarrett dropped because of his slow 40 time (over 4.6) and the "character" issues. I remember Jerry Rice not having a great 40 time either, but somehow no corner could ever catch him. My Giants have much bigger needs at 20 so I wouldn't take him there, but I really hope the Cowboys don't take him at 22 (because I think he's going to be pretty good). I love the draft. One of my favorite days of the year. Yeah, I need help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied lightning Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 not sure the Raides, who have passed on quality QB's in the past can not take Russell. the Raiders have zero at QB right now. Moss & Johnson look good on paper, but who will throw to them ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ction Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 My skins are talking about trading Portis? WTF? Heading off the Post website now... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a.miller Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well, the Chiefs had better draft some offense before Herm the Worm goes for a defense-only draft.....and they had better re-up Larry Johnson. Whoever goes to Oakland, I don't think it will make a difference. The main issue with the Raiders is Al Davis -- until he goes, I see no success for that franchise.

TimRoss Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 JOE STALEY! Pride of Central Michigan! Pride of the Rockford Rams! Late first-rounder hopefully ends up with New England. I predict that the Lions will trade down with Atlanta, and select Patrick Willis. Of course, if that doesn't happen we'll probably trade up and draft Ronald Regan's performance of George Gipp with the first pick in the draft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

myboyblue Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Am I the only one that feels that Brady Quinn will be a bust? Edit: Apparently not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H-Bomb Henry Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Am I the only one that feels that Brady Quinn will be a bust? Edit: Apparently not. Not a chance. If anyone will be a bust it will be JaMarcus Russell. He should send half of his first check to the Notre Dame secondary because they basically made this guy. Russell will have multpile 5 pick games this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Quinn will be very Joey Harrington-like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nice job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
