Rumor I heard this morning

[Partial]

I'll make a prediction...if...IF...Arizona trades up...they'll go after Adrian Peterson. But I don't know that they'd have to trade up to get him.

Edgerin James is making $20 million in garunteed money the next 2 seasons...they are NOT drafting adrian Peterson. they've wanted Joe thomas. Their GM last year at like mid season said they want Joe Thomas.

Do you think the Saints needed Reggie Bush last year? No...they had Deuce McAllister. However...Bush surprisingly didn't go number 1 and he fell to the number 2 spot. The Saints realized he was the best player so they took him. Do you think most teams have Thomas rated higher than Peterson on their draft board? I don't think the majority of the teams do. So let's be realistic...every team knows it's good to have two good RB's...the Cardinals would take Peterson over Thomas if it came down to it...in my opinion.

Their GM will be assassinated if they don't take Joe Thomas and he is there. No chance in hell they take any other player if Thomas is available. He is the BPA and their needs go OLT, DE.

That said, its not a given that he is there. I think they take Gaines Adams if Thomas is gone. Fills their second need and would be BPA.

Dwayne Bowe is my prediction.

One: Josh has done nothing but EARN the right to start.

Witht he cardnals he not only maintained a WINNING record, he averaged 300 yards passing per start and 2 td's.

I think he has earned the right to go someplace to compete for a start.

"Plus "word" is that Marinelli has become in love with Gaines Adams."

ND, if this is so and Detroit passes on Calvin Johnson and Joe Thomas to take this guy, it will cement Matt Millen's place as the all-time worst general manager of any sport at any level in any country of any universe, ever.

When did he ever have a winning record? He may have averaged 300 yards in his starts (or close to it), but big deal. If you throw 50-60 times/game, you'll get yards. His TDs to interceptions are 25 to 29 in his career. He may do okay as a starter, but I wouldn't say he's done everything to earn the right to start. His play has been average at best.
