    the first is too high for Jim Ward. If they fall in love with him, they can trade back and still probably get him.

    Rewatching the Poinsettia Bowl. My Jimmy Ward prospect crush has just been upgraded from "squicky" to "creepy"
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    heres the game from toledo this year. now he's playing deep most of the time.

    there is no box before the snap to sho you which one he is, he's #15 and usually lined up off the screen at the snap.

    a few days back i look at deone bucannon, and mention he looked very raw, but good size. (missed a lot of tackles, gambled a lot). ward looks to be the exact opposite, smaller, but a sure tackler and good defender

    alright, you guys want jommy ward, you got him

    this is the 2013 orange bowl against ej manual and florida state (last year,not this year)

    some things you'll notice

    1. he looks pretty small
    2. he lines up all over the place (safety and CB) but plays a lot up near the line
    3. he doesn't miss tackles
    4. he makes just about every single play in the game.

    An impressive football player.

    He looks small but plays courageously. He sneaks into position fast.

    He tackles effectively and in this game he's a tackling machine. He had a great day.

    So that's what a tackling safety looks like?

    With this draft, you could have the law firm of Lattimore, Lattimore, and Latimer on your roster.
    Kidding aside, good attempt, although I have a hard time picturing TT drafting a C in R3 with Nelson, Cobb and Boykin all free agents next season and Driver, Jennings, and Jones gone. TT tends to draft OT's and make Campen turn them into interior linemen.

    The Prior/Dixon combo is a nice idea, and I'm coming around on Niklas apprenticing under Quarless and Bostick.

    in this scenario, i don't think there's any way the eagles would trade with us, if pryor is there, and not take pryor

    it seems to be the general consensus that the eagles will take pryor at #22 if available

    Why in God's name would Philly give up a third round pick to move up a single slot?

    Well, I don't know exactly what to look for, so I can't really say fer sure, but he looks like a willing tackler. I didn't see people trying to block him much. He just kinda wandered around free and ended up making a bunch of tackles.

    I wonder how his cover skills are? And if he's pretty quick at picking up defenses?

    There were reports his coverage skills were pretty good at the Senior Bowl. His stock kind of went up after that.

    How many more draft picks will the #Packers get? They'll find out next week.
    http://espn.go.com/blog/green-bay-pa...re-draft-picks

    Someone at philly.com is guessing a 3rd (Jennings) and a 6th (Walden).

    The guy (Craig Turner) guessing has a history of some success, but its not clear if he was the guy who invented this guesswork.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Can you get away with being both small and slow in the NFL? You put Ward's brain in Sean Richardson's body and you've got a hall of famer.

    Sports On Earth, 3 man Mock Draft.

    Packers get a WR, a CB and a Safety. Doesn't really break the Packers way. Mosley, Prior and Ebron gone.
