In other words, if Ted were trying to just get the one player that would put this team over the top he'd take a guy who would fill a position of need whether or not it was good value. But he's just doing what he always does, puts trust in his board, and prioritizes athletes, leaders, and hard workers. Anybody who's all three (like Neal) has "Ted" written all over him.</delurk>

It'd be cool if TT could pick up a return specialist like Trindon Holliday in the last rounds.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.

thank you. (btw, that was actually a compliment that I was directing at the old boy. - he's doing what he is supposed to be doing, and I respected his comment about how the draft board was falling.)Originally posted by Lurker64In other words, Ted is trying to just get the one player that would put this team over the top, he'd take a guy who would fill a position of need whether or not it was good value.

If he was "trying" to get the team over the top, I think he'd have taken an OL, or a corner with that 2nd round pick.Originally posted by JustinHarrellThis is a deep draft. Teams that are looking for select pieces like us (LT, Safety) will be able to land their guys. Teams looking to replenish a lot of depth will be able to do that (NE).
I think you can see Ted putting a premium on fine tuning this team. Bulaga, the pass rush DL, Burnett. . . . I think Thompson is trying to get this team over the top.
He is just drafting Justin.

Anyone think Jonathan Dwyer is worth a stab? He looks pretty good on film. A one cut, pretty fast big man.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics.

nope. not until the 5th+ ... techie here, not a fan. his yards are a result of a lot of confusion, misdirection and josh nesbitt (qb).Originally posted by Maxie the TaxiAnyone think Jonathan Dwyer is worth a stab? He looks pretty good on film. A one cut, pretty fast big man.

I still think CB would be a better pick. I especially like Akwasi Owusu-Ansah.Originally posted by Maxie the TaxiAnyone think Jonathan Dwyer is worth a stab? He looks pretty good on film. A one cut, pretty fast big man.
He has a lot to offer and can help out in run support, which Capers said is important for a CB in our scheme.

I'm skeptical a suitably good corner will last until our next pick. This is what makes me think the value picks were earlier in this draft -- like the ones TT made.Originally posted by steve823I still think CB would be a better pick.

True, but he's also a factor in the return game.

I sure hope he sticks around.

I thought it was funny when the announcer said his name after he scored..I replayed it like 3 times to listen to it haha.

He's the highest rated RB left with Dixon of MSU, McKnight of USC, and the SIU guy Deji Karim who they say we like. I saw this guy on NFP, fits the scatback/change of pace mold.Originally posted by Maxie the TaxiAnyone think Jonathan Dwyer is worth a stab? He looks pretty good on film.

4. RB Michael Smith, Arkansas
Michael SmithAPMichael Smith averaged more than 5.0 yards per carry each of the past four seasons.
It’s not out of the question that Michael Smith might be the most dynamic open field threat coming out of the SEC. Smith stands just 5-7, 180 pounds, but he’s absolutely lighting in a bottle and has the ability to instantly reach top speed, consistently make defenders miss and explode into daylight. He averaged more than 5.0 yards per carry each of the past four seasons but had plenty of struggles staying on the field because of his slight frame. However, if given a chance as a change-of-pace/third-down guy, there definitely is a place for him in the NFL."When it's third and ten, you can take the milk drinkers and I'll take the whiskey drinkers every time" Max McGee

When is our next pick now?[QUOTE=George Cumby] ...every draft (Ted) would pick a solid, dependable, smart, athletically limited linebacker...the guy who isn't doing drugs, going to strip bars, knocking around his girlfriend or making any plays of game changing significance.
