Ridiculous!!!! I demand action!!!!

 

I say we make the pick - who would you take if you were the Texans?

 

I say Leon Hall.

Yeah, just do it. Let's get this thing moving along.

 

Done. Can someone PM HerbalK and let him know? I have to run real quick or else I would do it.

I was going to take Willis or Hall, but they are gone.

 

So with the 12th selection in the 2007 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select....Marshawn Lynch, Running Back from California

 

After trading McGahee, the Bills have a big hole at RB. They have holes in other spots as well, but this seems like the consensus pick of what the Bills will do

I have to work all day tomorrow, so I will just make a list of 4 guys that rams will take in order, if one is taken before the Rams pick move onto the next one.

 

1-Amobe Okoye

2-Alan Branch

3-Patrick Willis

4- Hall, the CB from Michigan.

 

Didnt want to slow this down anymore, I think Okoye will still be there when the rams pick and he is the guy I think they will take. But if he is gone move to Branch next, then on down the line.

 

Here is his quote from yesterday-so the Rams would take Okoye-Andy and Carolina are next.

The Panthers take Reggie Nelson, safety from Florida.

 

Carolina has two starting safeties - the injury-prone Colin Branch and the soon-to-be-retired Mike Minter. Nelson can step right in as a backup safety this year and slide into Minter's spot in 2008. Florida fans speak of Nelson in reverential tones, so he clearly has all the talent necessary to compete at the NFL level.

Sorry fellas for the late response. I was out watching my Carolina Gamecocks get destroyed by Vandy. This resulted in me drowning my sorrows at a local watering hole. Now that I am home, I will make the following selection on behalf of my beloved Super Bowl XL champions.

 

With the Fifteenth selection in the 2007 NFL draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers select...

 

Darrelle Revis, CB, Pittsburgh

 

The Steelers have bona fide starters at every position, they just need to address depth. The need help at LB and in the secondary. I loved Patrick Willis, but he's already off the board. I also love Justin Blalock, but I think this is a little high for him, so I am sticking with a Pittsburgh boy.

 

I don't know who is on the clock now, I'll trust Vance or the Mods to that. Thanks all.

With the 16th pick in the Draft, the Green Bay Packers select Ted Ginn out of The Ohio State University.

 

The Packers have main needs at RB, WR, KR/PR, and Safety. Ginn would be a great pick because he can fill both a WR spot as well as becoming the primary return man. It didn't help matters that both first round RBs were taken, but I probably would have passed if Lynch was still on the board anyway. With Green Bay's zone blocking scheme, a "big name" RB won't really help much. I think that there are several good options in the 2nd and 3rd round at RB for the Pack.

 

My other choice that I had at 16 would've been Nelson, but he was chosen. I do think WR is a much more glaring need for us though, because all the Packers currently have are Driver, Jennings, Koren Robinson (who won't play until October), and Ruvell Martin/Carlyle Holliday. Ginn immediately adds a deep threat for Favre and gives the Packers a huge strength in the return department.

With the 17th pick in the draft the jacksonville Jaguars select:

 

JON BEASON

 

I'll explain more later, but Basically we need starting talent at 2 spots, FS and LB. I think there is enough depth at saftey to take one in round two rather than reaching for Griffin here.

Since my pick is up after Rocket's I'll go ahead and post this now so that the draft isn't slowed down.

 

Choice #1 Adam Carriker DE Nebraska- 32nd ranked defense last year definitely needs to go D with their first pick. Carriker offers nice versatility in that he can rush the passer quite well, stop the run, and play situationally at DT. Even if they lose Pac-Man for the year, their safeties are pretty good and can pick up the slack so a DB isn't a necessity in the 1st.

 

Choice#2 Robert Meachem WR Tennessee- One of the better size/speed combos in this year's draft. The Titans' current WR corps is injury-prone and very inconsistent. This will give Vince a large, consistent target.

the bengals select chris houston, cb arkansas

 

the bengals need defensive help, and tory james and deltha o'neal are getting older and crappier.

Ok-texas picks Adam Carriker for the Titans, so Dew and the Giants are now on the clock.

With the 20th pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, the New York Giants select LB from Penn State Paul Posluszny.

 

The Giants desperately need help at both CB and LB and with the top two corners on my board gone, this pick becomes easy. I really wanted Willis here, but realized that was a pipedream, so Poz was the second linebacker on the list even despite his knee injury (which I don't think will hinder him long-term).

An added plus is that he can play either outside or inside, which gives the Giants more versatility as they need help at both spots.

 

Jazz and the Broncos at the 21st pick are now on the clock.

dew, since you are the resident Titans fan how do you feel about my selection of Carriker?

As the other resident Titans fan, I feel a bigger need is at WR. They have absolutely no depth there and I can almost definitely see them taking Meachem or Jarrett.

 

Though, nothing against your pick. They do need a good pass rusher.

with the 21st pick of the 2007 draft the broncos select Jarvis Moss.

 

The broncos have been lacking at the position for years now, and have not addressed the need thoroughly in past offseasons. The browncos are simply not cutting it.

 

Sorry if i took to long guys, i feel kind of hypocritical as i was getting pretty peeved with the people taking forever.

 

Vance and thee boys are on the clock

With the 22nd pick, the Dallas Cowboys select Dwayne Bowe, WR LSU.

 

With the Cowboys addressing their issues at safety by signing Ken Hamlin, they can turn their attention to the offense. With both Owens and Glenn in their mid-thirties, the Cowboys need a yound receiver. Bowe has great size and hands and is an ideal pick here.

I thought about putting Meachem #1 over Carriker, but because of the horrible defense last year I decided to go there first. The drop off between the 1st and 2nd rounds for DEs and WRs also influenced my decision. There is a good possibility of Steve Smith, Jason Hill, and Sidney Rice still being there in the 2nd round.

Homer! J/k Vance, I agree with a WR there and I like Bowe but I like Meachem a little more.
