    It's all perception, of course, but I see this draft as top heavy. Why wouldn't TT trade up? Go for quality instead of quantity. Get 4 or 5 first tier guys rather than 10 second tier.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    I keep reading that outside of QB, there are 4-6 players who are definite first rounders. The QBs are not considered quality first round material.

    I could be wrong, I have seen no one score this.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I got a kick out of this part...........but the answer is probably .....YES........


    “You have to have an answer to be a championship-caliber team,” the personnel man said. “They have to attack some areas. Or you can just bank on (Aaron) Rodgers pulling (expletive) out of his (expletive). At some point that’s going to fail, right?”
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
