Damn, there goes Ben Jones to Houston

Top Centers I have left are both Big Ten alumni. I would be fine with Brewster or Molk in the fourth.

Out of no where comes........TTT...........Ted the Tiger Thompson...........doing a wonderful job combining BPA with need........

Yeah, who could have seen 2 time Executive of the Year Ted Thompson having a good draft.


This Ted guy might work out afterall.

I'm betting TT won't be able to stop himself from drafting a WR....somewhere.

If he drafts wr and he turns out, or one of the PS wr's really steps up, could we trade DD and get some picks for next year? We wouldn't get much and I love DD but if we have a good talent behind him ...

[pittstang5]

I'd like to see DL if the value is there and hope TT moves up to get Crick. If not get the best saftey then. I'm willing to not pick a rb as I have faith Green and Starks is enough. By far my biggest worry at this point is that Bretsky is loving our draft. When he said he would rather have picked other than Perry I thought we were safe, but the sheer exuberance he has is really getting me worried. Wist do your best to sink his enthusiasm and save these poor innocent players!

I think TT is almost out of Ammo to move up. If I'm not mistaken, he only has a 6th and two 7ths to use.

Can't he trade next years picks?

Not that he will. I think we might be done trading.

Trade DD? They'd release him before they trade him....who would want an older WR that doesn't play special teams.

Not that he will. I think we might be done trading.

Sure, he could trade a player too, but unlikely as well. A snowball has a better chance in hell than TT trading a next year pick. I figured that was common knowledge.

Jared Crick would be a really nice pickup in round four IMHO

It would be a knee-jerk decision. Crick is going to be a great player in this league. I wouldn't necessarily hate the selection. But that would mean two starters and one primary rotational guy in our front 7 would begin the season with no NFL experience at all. This may sound silly but I think drafting Perry and Worthy plus the addition of Hargrove in FA is all the attention our front 7 needs right now. We need a safety, we need a center, we need a quarterback at some point... Too much attention focused on one phase of the game will lead to disaster IMO.

Safety, QB, Center. I agree. Gotta get some competition in there.

You make a good point. But it also assumes that you hit on all three of those guys. And the odds of that happening aren't too good.

How many minutes between picks?
