I'm less concerned with that than I am his size. The Rams receivers are all midgets (except for Laurent Robinson) so having a big target was the big thing here. I looked at Thaddeus Gibson, but think they can get some help at DE later. I was a little surprised you didn't go QB with that pick. John Skelton would be a great pick in the third round. I like what I've seen from Pike and was considering him there, but that's just too early. In the actual draft, it wouldn't surprise me if McCoy is still there at the start of round 3. Of course, that won't matter since they'll be taking Bradford first overall.

Illinois is dumb, slow, and doesn't care. They haven't looked interested since they got down 10 or 12.
-
I guess I'll go with Decker then since I really don't like any of the other OG here.
-
Eric Decker and Riley Cooper were possibilities here, but the interior of the Rams lines (O and D) have been awful, so they take Rodger Saffold, G, Indiana.

You're kidding here, right? Nope. He ran a textbook fast break, nobody guarded him so he knocked down a wide open free throw line jumper and got benched. Not exactly sure what that was all about

I was on a treadmill at the Y yesterday afternoon and had on a heart rate monitor. The Mizzou-WVU game was on and they switched to MSU-Maryland for the last minute and when Lucious hit that shot, my heart rate jumped from 138 to 154 in like 2 seconds. I couldn't believe they just went without calling a TO.

Did the Waukegan-Whitney Young game end or did I just get randomly switched to "Contour Abs"?

seems like something i should have known, oh well. can i officially be considered old because i can remember with acuity tommy hamilton sr. playing in the state finals and now i'm watching his son in the state tourney? I was just telling my wife about that game they played against Rockford Guilford in the state championship game. I'm pretty sure that was 1992 and I was a sophomore.

Did something happen to Dempster that I don't know about? -
If that's the way they looked at it, then they're dumber than I thought. You still have 2nd-5th round money to work with to sign that 1st round pick if that's the way you look at it, but more importantly, draft budget should never be something the Cubs worry about. Is this guy the best player? Yes. OK, draft him. End of discussion. They're not the Royals or Pirates.

I'm glad you feel this way (if you are a rams fan). Most Rams fans I have talked to hate the idea of drafting a QB at #1. But I think it has to be done. I'm not a Rams fan, but that makes the most sense for them. Even if he's a flop, they need a guy who has the potential to be a franchise QB. AJ Feely just isn't going to do it. Based on the moves they've made, I fully expect that to be the pick.

Since reggie seems to have disappeared, I'll do this myself. The Rams have needs everywhere except OT, MLB, and RB, but since they've spent heavily on the interior line I don't think they look there either. It's too early for any of the other QBs and they've used some recent early picks on WRs they hope to develop. I'd go Arrelious Benn here if not for that. Their DB and S situations were terrible last year in terms of coverage, so I think I'll take Patrick Robinson, CB Florida State. I was stuck in a meeting when I was supposed to make the 1st pick and would have taken Bradford and then a DT here, but oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Thank the lord. I thought they were gonna give it away. Hopefully in with maybe a 10 seed now, best case scenario.
-
They're trying to give this thing away, I swear to god.
-
Illinois is only up 9 at the half. Refs are giving Wisconsin the game. That coming from a Purdue fan probably speaks volumes about how bad the officiating has been. I have no idea since I'm just following on line, but I have a feeling it's a good thing Wisky is shooting so poorly otherwise we'd be in full riot mode.
-
Should be on 590 in St. Louis, but I of course can't seem to pick it up in my office.
-
Lunardi still has Illinois in as the last at large. I'll be shocked if it stays that way unless they win at least 1 game and maybe 2 in the BTT.
-
Small point, but championship teams don't get built on 1st round picks. Yes, they're important, but they get built by finding great value in your 3rd, 4th, and 5th round picks. Guys who aren't necessarily superstars, but guys who start and contribute for a decent period of time and don't cost a ton of money.
-
Philly also signed TO and did they get that tackle from the Bills in a trade or FA? Those were both pretty high priced FA acquisitions.
-
I PM'ed reggie as well and haven't heard anything. If I don't hear back from him by early tomorrow I'll make a pick then.
-
And none of those players are ball handlers. Bertrand is apparently lacking in this area as well. Unless we take a PG for 2010 it'll be a lot of JJ. I've heard just the opposite. From what I've seen it sounds like Bertrand, while not a true PG, has the best handles of any of the guys brought in this year. That could be wrong, but it ounded like he was going to get the backup PG minutes this year has he been healthy.

I can't wait until Hightower isn't allowed to ref anymore. He makes my life miserable. Not only is he an awful official, he's my wife boss.

I think one of the Illini may have to get anally violated on the court to get a call. This game has been terribly officiated, and while OSU has gotten the better of the calls, it's been bad both ways.
