JS-2007 DRAFT PREVIEW BY MCGINN

[Bretsky]

Re: FYI....

At this point I've marked the three I'm hoping TT chooses from.

I think it's possilbe one of the very talented WR's falls to round 2.

Meecham is very intriguing.

"Sidney Rice is a better route runner, he has excellent hand-eye coordination and very good hands, is an extremely difficult matchup in the red zone, and is physical. Robert Meacham is a burner that drops passes, isn't a very good blocker, and he is not physical enough to get out of most cornerback jams in college. Imagine him going up a bump and run scheme in the NFL. You guys want speed, well I want height, physicalness, catching ability, smarts, a red zone threat...Sidney Rice."

I think Meecham is an option for round two; great ability to run after the catch. Rice will be gone by round 2 IMO; I'm not sure I want him at pick #16. If they trade down to the 21-25 range he's be a great pickup in that area.

I like it, Bretsky. Trade down, get more second and third rounders. There's lots of NFL players there that we don't know about.

Last year it was a no brainer to go for Hawk.

This year, the depth of decent talent makes it an ideal year to trade down, especially in the first, and pick up three good players out of the top 60.

I think if they trade down in round one they can still get a very good WR like Rice, Bowe, or Meecham, or a very good safety like Merriweather if we aren't terribly afraid of his character.

TOTALLY 100% without question agree. The depth of this draft is awesome. I think we are in prime position this year to drop down in round 1, grab another day pick (or more) and get some more talent that way.
